Big Brother is an Australian reality show based on the international Big Brother format created by John de Mol Jr.. Following the premise of other versions of the format, the show features a group of contestants, known as "housemates" who live together in a specially constructed house that is isolated from the outside world. The housemates are continuously monitored during their stay in the house by live television cameras as well as personal audio microphones. Throughout the course of the competition, housemates are evicted from the house – eliminated from the competition. The last remaining housemate wins the competition and is awarded a cash prize. The series is named after the fictional totalitarian dictator from George Orwell's 1949 novel Nineteen Eighty-Four.
Big Brother was produced from 2001 and ran for eight seasons and a Celebrity edition on Network Ten before the network cancelled it in July 2008 after experiencing audience erosion and controversy. Big Brother returned in 2012 on the Nine Network. Nine's iteration of the series lasted 3 seasons and was not renewed beyond 2015. Each of the first eleven previous seasons was produced by Endemol Australia and Endemol Southern Star.
In 2019, the Seven Network picked up the series, which was produced by Endemol Shine Australia. This iteration of the series was pre-recorded and featured a revamped competitive format, based on the American version of Big Brother and ran for four regular seasons as well as a celebrity edition titled Big Brother VIP. As a result of a poor reception to the 15th season, a planned 16th season that was announced for 2024 did not eventuate.
In November 2025, Big Brother returned to Network 10 for its sixteenth season, returning to the original live format with live nominations and evictions, with evictions decided by viewers and a 24/7 live stream, with Endemol Shine Australia continuing to produce. Big Brother has been confirmed to be returning in 2026 for its seventeenth season, to again air on Network 10.
The Patron saints of the College are St Francis of Assisi and St Clare.
