Twists[]
- Cast Revealed Before Launch: For the first time in series history, the housemates were revealed to the viewing public via the Big Brother website before the series began. The reason was to fit with the time theme, a countdown began two days before the cast was revealed.
- Four In, Four Out: On Day 18, the originally nominated housemates were informed that by receiving the most nominations that they were deemed to be immune. Instead, all other housemates were put up for eviction. Later four housemates were evicted and four housemates entered to replace them.

They all had a minute to press a button to steal the cash, with the fastest taking it home. If none of them pressed within the time limit the money would be added to the prize fund. Jack pressed the button first therefore stole the money. | |
