November started with a bang as Big Brother Australia returned to its original home on Network 10 and the Gold Coast’s Dreamworld, aiming to please longtime fans and attract a new generation. The casting process focused on selecting everyday Australians, avoiding influencers from recent reality shows like Married At First Sight and Love Island.
