News that the daily 7pm Highlights show will be 60mins, not 30mins as originally announced.
Goody!

Interesting that BB AUS are following a similar format - looks like they agree that less is more and that the format needs refreshed in some areas.

Also interesting that their logo is very similar to ours now.

The house plan looks interesting; the house is very big! What goes on in the Noms Rooms? Has that always been there? And what about the Sin Bin? Has the Rewards Space always existed? It looks potentially kind of similar to BB USA's HOH Room?..

Rewards room was in later seasons. We had friday night games where housemates competed and the winner won the night in the rewards room which was luxurious (had a bath, normal bathrooms don't have baths in the houses) nice food and they were allowed to select 1 friend to take and often they were allowed to remove a point off nominations to change who was up for eviction.

The sin bin was done in BBUK with the jail in the year Bex and Luke were in there. We did have a sin bin at least one year, housemates who discussed nominations would be sent in there to sort tedious things similar to the painting coal punishment in last weeks bbuk task.

They had nominations room one year at least apparently but I don't recall it. One season they were sending the nominated housemates to that room and then evicting them from there and then the remaining housemates would reenter the living area like they do on The Apprentice.

To be honest, BBAU has always been a rip off of BBUK. A lot of the twists have been lame adaptations of BBUK and the tasks have always been very similar.

Though I hope they do invest in some of those electrocution suits.

There is speculation there are 12 beds and 13 housemates which means somebody could be selected to live in the rewards room as HOH. One season BB had a car in the back yard and one housemate was made sleep in it all season.

You really don't! Big Brother UK have definitely got their money's worth with theirs; they get rolled out at every opportunity. I don't want to see the bloody things ever again.

Thanks for the insight into some of the rooms. I tried to start watching BB Aus one year (the one with the car in the garden), but just couldn't keep it up as the show was daily. I can manage BB USA's 3 shows a week, but 7 days a week is too much to keep up with unfortunately!

I found the same with bbuk, 1hr show 7 days plus bots type show. bbau is 30m x 7 and an extra hour on sun and mon for evictions and nominations.

I loved the suits, I have never laughed so much at anything on tv the first time they used them but yeah they've trotted them out too many times now.

Aussies aren't all that good to watch tbh they just sunbake and talk about sex.

It would be good if we could get the mods to move this to the main section and sticky it for those who don't usually watch BBUS but might be interested in watching the return of the more similar to BBUK Aus version.

I asked them a couple of times to make a BB Australia sub-forum, but I obviously wasn't persuasive enough!

Looks like they're not worried about the UK experience of Facebook voting

Behind Big Brother‏ @behindbb
Remember when Channel Nine promised there would be a #bbau "nightly adult show" on GO? Whatever happened to that? Broken promises?


That's a shame. I can see that a nightly 7pm "family friendly" show will work, as games involving housemates being covered in gunge etc is just the sort of thing that kids love; but a late night show that could show the "naughty bits" too would've been great.

The kitchen/dining room looks as though it was designed by someone who designs the US house.

Hi Sad

House looks gorgeous especially love the kitchen. It certainly looks better than BBUK house.

What's the general opinion of BBAU, how does it compare to BBUK and is it better ?

Silly question but will you/someone provide the links to watch/download ?

A lot of FMs have said that BB Australia has been their favourite in the past.
But with it seemingly going down the C5 route, who knows?

We won't know until it starts what methods will work to view it.
