Big Brother

Big Brother VIP is a spin-off series of the Australian version of the Dutch reality television franchise Big Brother . The series was announced on 30 March 2021 and is hosted by Sonia Kruger. [1] The series premiered on 1 November 2021. [2]

Contents

This season revolves around 12 celebrities living in a house together with no communication with the outside world as they compete for $100,000 charity prize. They were constantly filmed during their time in the house and were not permitted to communicate with those filming them. The format of the series is the same as the current civilian version with emphasis on competition and gameplay. The celebrity housemates will now compete in challenges for power and safety before voting each other out of the house. When only three housemates remained, the Australian public voted to decide which finalist would win the game and win the grand prize for their nominated charity.

History

The first celebrity edition, titled Celebrity Big Brother , aired on Network Ten in 2002 and was won by Dylan Lewis. No further celebrity editions were commissioned before the entire franchise was axed by the network in 2008. [3]

In 2011 it was confirmed that the Big Brother franchise would be revived by Nine Network. [4] Following the conclusion of the 2014 civilian season, rumours had begun circulating that Nine were looking at reviving the Celebrity Big Brother edition of the show for broadcast in 2015 which were later confirmed by host Sonia Kruger. [5] By July 2015, it was reported that the fourth season of The Celebrity Apprentice Australia had replaced the proposed Celebrity Big Brother revival. While it was also said it was possible something could happen the following year in 2016, nothing ever eventuated and the 2014 season became the last season of the franchise to air on Nine. [6]

Format

Big Brother VIP follows the same rebooted format of the series that launched with the twelfth season of the series, which itself resembles the format of the American & Canadian editions of Big Brother - with housemates determining both Nominations and Evictions. The format has emphasis on the competitive aspect of surviving the eviction process. As such, the housemates are permitted to strategise, politic and collude about the nominations and evictions. However, there are still key differences compared to the North American format, most prominently, no "Power of Veto" is included as part of the format (a staple of the American and Canadian shows), and the Australian public deciding the eventual winner - rather than being decided by a Jury formed of evicted housemates. [7]

Teams

Following completing a secret mission issued to them by Big Brother, Caitlyn and Ellie earned the right to each become a captain of one of the two teams that the house would be split into. During this team phase of the game the Nomination Challenge saw the two teams competing against each other, with the winning team earning safety for themselves and the team captain being responsible for deciding who to nominate for eviction from the opposing team. The team phase of the game concluded after the second eviction.

Production

In advance of the series being announced in March 2021, it was confirmed in December 2020 that the show was issued an eviction notice by NSW National Parks & Wildlife Service for the North Head site used as the location of the house for the previous two series of the civilian series over concerns for local wildlife due to concerns from increased traffic and attention to the site. [23] In July 2021, it was confirmed that the site of the new Big Brother house used for the series would be constructed in the White Pavilion at the Sydney Olympic Park at Homebush Bay. [24]

In June 2021, it was confirmed that the series would be extended in some capacity due to the tenth season of Australia's Got Talent being delayed due to COVID-19 pandemic restrictions that came into effect in Sydney shortly before production was set to begin. [25]

Filming commenced on 30 July 2021 [26] and wrapped on 20 August 2021 after 22 days of filming. [27] Unlike previous seasons that have aired on Seven, the finale was not broadcast live and was pre-recorded with the rest of the season. All three possible outcomes were filmed and the result of the vote by the Australian public determined which was aired. [28]

In October 2021, a second season of Big Brother VIP was announced at Seven's 2022 Upfront presentation — prior to the broadcast of the first season — and was slated to air in 2022. [29] However, it was announced in February 2022 the series was "not proceeding". [30]

Katie Hopkins controversy

In July 2021 Katie Hopkins, who was set to appear on the show after appearing on the fifteenth season of Celebrity Big Brother UK in 2015, made multiple posts on Instagram mocking several lockdown measures in place in Sydney, as well as stating she was intentionally not following rules in place. [31] Her entry into the country sparked backlash due to the number of Australians stranded overseas due to state intake limits that were in place as well as the controversial nature of Hopkins as a public figure. [32] Seven condemned the statements she had made and also confirmed she would no longer be a part of the series. [33] Her visa was ultimately canceled, she was fined $1,000 and was also escorted to Sydney Airport by police on July 19, 2021, for deportation back to the UK. [34] [35] Due to a pay-or-play clause in her contract, Hopkins was still paid her full appearance fee. [36]

International broadcast

The series was broadcast in New Zealand on TVNZ 2 and TVNZ OnDemand, with episodes being released the day after their broadcast in Australia. [37] The series was later broadcast in the UK, under the localised title Celebrity Big Brother Australia, on E4 starting on 6 February 2022, [38] however it was removed from the schedule after airing four episodes but continued to be released via the All 4 on-demand service. [39]

Notes
  1. ↑ Episode 1 was a non-eviction episode. Instead, Ellie was tasked to save one Housemates in the Half-Room, making both the rescueee and Elle team captains,
  2. ↑ While Omarosa was evicted, she visited new Housemate Danny in a secret room to provide insight before he enters the game. Danny entered the game on Day 6 after nominations were made.
  3. ↑ After the VIP Museum task, Big Brother informed the housemates that they were all nominated for Instant Eviction - with the Housemates having to decide the next evictee by group decision. Caitlyn decided to be the instant evictee, and the other housemates agreed.
  4. ↑ Caitlyn got to award a Housemate immunity from the next eviction. She gave immunity to Ellie
  5. ↑ Luke won an Advantage Challenge - granting him the advantage to hide a nominee in the “Waste Room” during the Eviction Ceremony, vetoing their Nomination. Luke chose to hide himself. As he was hidden, Luke did not vote. The eviction continued with Ellie & Bernard nominated, with the nominees not voting as their votes would cancel the other's out.
  6. ↑ Day 15 was a Fake Double Eviction. Following Ellie's eviction, a second vote between surviving nominees Thomas & Dayne was held. As their votes would cancel the others out, Thomas & Dayne did not vote. After being voted out, Ellie & Dayne secretly moved to the Big Brother Gym.
  7. ↑ On Day 17, the Fake Evictees returned to the main house to compete in a challenge against the remaining Housemates. The winning team would officially evict someone from the other group. The remaining Housemates won and Dayne was officially evicted.
  8. ↑ Two Nomination Challenges took place, with the winner of each challenge being able to nominate a single housemate for eviction. The first challenge was contested in pairs and won by Imogen and Jessika. The first housemate nominated, Thomas, was ineligible to compete in the second challenge.
  9. ↑ The winner of Final Challenge won their place in the Final 3 and the sole vote at the Final Eviction. The other three housemates were nominated for the Final Eviction.
  10. ↑ The Final 3 competed in a special Charity Challenge for $10,000 for their charity. Luke won.
  11. ↑ For the finale, Australia decided the winner of Big Brother VIP and the $100,000 charity prize.
