Being Big Brother

Nadia is looking gorgeous! 😍 #BBUK

Definately think 10 smells the value of a longer #BBAU run in 2026.

The move to not do a Australian Amazing Race season this year is very significant.

Please, please, please – just don't let it be anything like last year's. I don't think I could handle eight weeks of that. 😬 #BBUK

Me getting ready to watch #TheBoyfriend Season 2 🤭

I used Buffer for select things this series (just the "Days to go" images and some Pop Poll reminders) but I couldn't stand to do it for much else.

I'm doing this because I like writing/design/journalism; pre-drafting it would feel hollow (plus you can tell pre-drafted and AI stuff from miles off).

Honourable mention: Coco revealing her dream to make sensory children's books for neurodiverse children. 😎 It got glossed over on the Daily Show but I loved hearing her talking about it on the Live Stream.

The finale show was pretty good, too. 😌 Obviously not quite the same scale as the original Channel 10 era, but multitudes better than the eviction shows – and we even got a winner's walk! 🙌 It didn't even feel too rushed, considering they even squeezed in a twist.

Roll on BB17! #BBAU

Winner: Coco, Day 30

OK so it wasn't Emily, but I stand by what I said on Day 1: to me, Coco always felt like a truly "OG" #BBAU Housemate from BB01–BB04, and maybe that's a perfectly fitting end for Big Brother's homecoming series. 😎

Most popular: 2025 weighted results. Allana was the most popular Housemate, with 18.10% of the vote. Emily was second with 15.44%, and Mia was third with 14.48%. Michael was in last place with zero votes. For a full list of results go to beingbigbrother.blog

🔥 With 18.10% of the weighted Pop Poll result, the most popular Housemate of 2025 is… Allana!

The weighted result takes evictions out of the equation, and shows the result if everyone stayed for the entire series.

Thanks to all 195 of you for your 517 votes! 🙌 The Polls will be back in 2026. #BBAU

Most popular, Week 4: Emily, with 32.11% of the votes. For a text-based list of the Housemates' percentages, go to beingbigbrother.blog

🔥 Week 4's most popular Housemate was Emily, with 32.11% of the Pop Poll votes. That's the highest vote share of the series, by quite a long way!

Thanks to everyone who took part. The weighted result is now being verified, and I'll soon be revealing the most popular Housemate of the series... #BBAU

Catching up! 🥳 Can't believe they're trying to backdoor someone DURING THE FINALE, these producers need to learn some restraint before next year lmao. 😅 #BBAU

#BBAU

I'll either get someone to help out next year, or have a big rethink about how to approach BBAU. This is basically my only hobby so it doesn't sit right with me that I've done such an "ehh" job of it.

Anyway, have a fun finale, please! Fingers crossed for an Emily win! 😁🤞

I'm already very unhappy with my 'coverage' of this series. I should've known it wouldn't quite work with delayed sleep phase disorder, sleep apnea, depression, and ADHD all ganging up on me at once. I can EASILY be up till 2am every night for BBUK but 8am for BBAU just immediately destroyed me tbh😅

Feeling sick and dizzy AGAIN (and my mental health had already deserted me 😅) so I'm going to get a long sleep and catch up on the finale when I can.

The Pop Poll is now set to close at the scheduled end of the finale show, 9pm AEDT. ✌️ #BBAU

We all know that's not what a double eviction is, though.

So, wait, they went back on the double eviction, too? Guess that idea didn't stick when they threw it at the wall. 🙄 #BBAU

Six years of working in optics has made Conor's stupid glasses BY FAR the most infuriating part of the series, for me. Next time he's in the UK he needs to see me for an adjustment so they're not halfway up his bloody forehead. 🙄

I BET he's done it himself because he thinks he's an expert ugh #BBAU

HOW did they manage to copy Matty's EXACT eviction, even with the same wording, but somehow manage to suck all the shock and drama out of it?!

Was it Bruce's fault, for sounding like he was reading an instruction manual? Was it Ed's, for being Ed, so no one cared? 😅 Just fell completely flat. #BBAU

It's why it blows my mind so much when things are done wrong. Like BBUK this year, and thankfully to a lesser extent BBAU. It's SO obvious to the fans what needs to change… so is it us who's missing something, or is it them? 😄

Omg #TheBoyfriend is back on January 13th! 😍 I intend to ugly cry *all* the way through it again, and there's nothing anybody can do about it. 🥲

Yeah... BBUK this year had two or three instances of "people not knowing exactly what they were voting for", but BBAU has been even less clear. 😬

Sunday 7th Dec: Double Eviction, 7:00pm to 8:10pm AEDT (8:00am GMT, 12:00am PST, 3:00am EST). Monday 8th Dec: Finale, 7:30pm to 9:00pm AEDT (8:30am GMT, 12:30am PST, 3:30am EST). Listings subject to change. Based on a combination of TV listings and live show ticketing info.

Here are your finale listings. It's been a mixed bag, but I can't believe it's almost over already! 🥺 Roll on BB17! #BBAU

Also I can't believe I 'spoiled' the exact eviction method for everyone, oops. 😅 I should've known they wouldn't be able to resist copying it.

Told you so #BBAU

OMG KFC product placement! *Now* it feels like OG #BBAU! 😂

Now that it's getting late in the series, it's getting way harder to avoid watching people I don't like on the Live Stream. 👀 #BBAU
