Episode Day 30 Finale Show - 8/12/2025

Well, here's the thing. Pete Cunningham wasn't supposed to be the main BB this year. He was likely to be a deputy, much like he was years ago, for Leon Murray. But production got rid of Leon because his demands were too much for the network to consider, so they had to race around at the last minute. Therefore, Pete was chosen as main BB. If Pete isn't back next year, either one of two things happens. One - Grant Phillips is main BB next year, or two - they hire a brand new BB. They are not going back to Leon because otherwise, the budget (or lack thereof) would be blown to smithereens, and I don't believe either Peter Abbott or Nick Colquhoun are in the industry anymore.
Peter Abbott has credits online as recent as 2024. Nick Colquhoun, while not an executive producer on BB, has less information available. His IMDb credits end in 2010 but is listed on LinkedIn as being a director and executive producer for a company called The Public Domain in Sydney that is a creative consulting firm. He’s likely not freelancing as a producer anymore. Kris Noble was EP during Nick’s reign as BB. There’s conflicting info on him. His wiki says he’s retired and there was also rumour he had passed away. But that was never confirmed.

Grant Philips or someone new will likely replace Pete. I’d be stoked if Nick would reprise his role, but I think those days have long since passed. While BB can definitely be funny and playful, an authoritative tone and presence is still needed.
 
I wonder if they actually believe this is good TV ?? They probably do when you consider the garbage production that was BB this year..
this was their crowning moment and what they were trying to achieve from the start. So thousands of mums across the country "Go Coco! what a wonderful mum and strong independent woman. Now who wants some Pickers for dinner kids!?"
