Providing “heart-stopping challenges,” including a giant thong knocking a contestant in the pool, contestants trying to have a date while balls fall from the sky, contestants getting dumped with mysterious liquids and powders, and of course, steamy kissing tasks. Plus, the original tasks we know and love are back!
According to Seven’s Head of Scheduling Brook Hall, despite the challenges, the show is returning to its raw roots, focusing on the housemates rather than the high-stakes reward tests.
“There won’t be so much gameplay, it’ll go back to more Big Brother from the past. It was becoming almost Survivor-esque. During COVID we had control over it, it was amazing. But we’ve now thought there’s so much in that space, let it be more raw Big Brother,” he shared with TV Tonight ahead of the new season launch.
