Template:In-progress tvshow The sixth series of the Australian television show Big Brother began on 22 April 2006.

Auditions for the Housemates were held in November and December 2005. The theme for the show was "smart, strong, and looking for a fight". Reports suggested that the show might be running for seventeen weeks, a total of around one-hundred and twenty days, making it the longest season since the series began. Additions to the Big Brother formula for the series included:

• Viewers would be able to vote for Housemates they wished to SAVE, as well as those they wished to EVICT. The results of the two votes would then be merged.
• A punishment room, to which Big Brother could consign Housemates whom had broken rules.

The launch of the series was aired the evening of 23 April (a twenty-four hour delay). 2006 also saw the re-naming of Big Brother: Uncut to Big Brother: Adults Only.

One of the twists that season, promoted by Ten as "Australia's World First", was that housemates Karen and Krystal were mother and daughter. This was't revealed to the housemates until a week into the series. Because the Housemates failed to uncover their secret, Karen and Krystal were exempt from being nominated by other housemates during the first round. Karen was later evicted from the house on the twenty-second day.

Despite publicity using the term "World First", international versions of the series had previously used similar concepts. The fourth Greek season had a series called Big Mother where nine houseguests participated in the game with their mothers, with whom they were to coexist during the contest. The housemates' mothers were not able to win the prize, but had to stay with their sons and daughters until their eviction. Another Big Brother series had houseguests enter the house with their mothers, but the mothers did not stay.

Housemates

Anna

Anna Hind-Linden (born September 16, 1985) was a PA and promotional model from Frankston, in Melbourne, Victoria. She'd entered the house on day zero with the rest of the original housemates. She was taken to the Revenge Room along with Camilla on the ninth day as part of a fake double eviction. From the Revenge Room, they enacted revenge on the housemates who had nominated them by being allowed to control elements of the house such as when the hot water was turned off. They were allowed to return to the rest of the house on the eleventh day. After returning from the Revenge Room, Anna seemed to have formed a tighter bond with the men of the house. She was the fourth to be evicted from the house on the twenty-ninth day with twenty-five percent of the merged vote. Her famous catch-phrase had been "Game on moles!"; later admitting on UpLate that she'd forgotten she'd even said the line.

Ashley

Michael Cox (Ashley) was a bricklayer from Perth, Western Australia. He'd entered the house on day zero with the rest of the original housemates. Many of the housemates perceived Ashley like a little brother. He was often heard speaking in the house of hiss passion, cars. Ashley revealed on the thirty-third day that he'd never met his siblings and finding them was part of the reason why he'd participated in Big Brother. Ashley was saved from being nominated for eviction during the first week by Gaelan who'd used his Three Point Twist received from winning Friday Night Live; he was later protected from the eviction line-up by David's excercise of his Three Point Twist. Ashley had only been up for eviction once.

Camilla

Camilla Halliwell (born October 28, 1983) was a student and nightclub host from Melbourne, Victoria. She'd entered the house on day zero with the rest of the original housemates. She'd left the House as part of a fake eviction along with Anna on the ninth day. From the Revenge Room, they'd enacted revenge on housemates who'd nominated them by pouring itchy powder on their beds, forcing them to do the clown task to see them fall over in the pool and stealing their clothes. She'd returned to the house as a surprise Birthday present for John on the eleventh day wearing a dress of Tilli's. While in the Revenge room, she said that the first thing she would do would be to call Tilli a bitch to her face. However, she did't do this, and instead offered to return the dress to Tilli. Camilla had generally been perceived as annoying by her housemates. Because of her attitude, she would consistently be nominated for eviction by the housemates whom had given her the nickname of 'the Veteran'. She was nominated during the third through seventh weeks and also the ninth.

Claire

Claire Madden (born June 17, 1983) was a big cat zookeeper from the Sunshine Coast, Queensland. She'd entertained the house since day zero with original songs (it was forbidden to sing any commercial music). Claire had been nominated for eviction during the second week. She was also a nominee during the Under the Radar vote, but didn't receive enough audience votes to be nominated for eviction.

Danielle

Danielle Foote (born June 8, 1987) was a host of Supre TV from Adelaide, South Australia. Danielle was the third intruder to enter the house on the twenty-fourth day, the others were Rob and Jade. During the 2006 series, she was the youngest housemate. Danielle had become romantically involved with Dino after Katie's twentieth birthday party. She had also told other housemates about her similar feelings for John. The situation was described as being a love triangle by several housemates. This situation came to a halt after Dino's eviction on the forty-third day, Afterwards, John refused to pursue Danielle.

Dani's nineteenth birthday was on the forty-seventh day. During her party her microphone had been discarded while changing clothes. She spent the remainder of her birthday in the Punishment Room cleaning dirty dentures, themed by the Scream Week Task and her Scream Week-themed birthday party.

Danielle was nominated for eviction with Camilla and Rob and was the eighth person evicted from the house on the fiftieth day by forty-four percent of the merged vote.

She appeared on Nominations show the next evening with Dino and they both forgave eachother.

Danielle appeared on the cover of a Zoo Weekly Magazine (Australians Men Magazine).

Darren

Dino

Dino Delic (born April 9, 1983) was a Business student from Melbourne, Victoria who'd moved to Australia as a Bosnian war refugee with his family in 1992. He formed a relationship with Danielle, and was considered to be the most annoying of housemates. On the forty-second day, he became the seventh housemate evicted, receiving five percent of the vote. Seeing footage of himself, Danielle and John in a 'love triangle' from an evicted perspective caused him regret for the relationship.

Elise

Elise Chen (born November 26, 1984) was a student and Finance Analyst from Sydney, New South Wales. She'd moved to Australia when she was five years old and couldn't speak English. She'd entered the house as an orignial housemate on day zero, and was known as one of the quieter housemates. She became a nominee for eviction during the first round for suspicion of playing a game, but stated she was overshadowed by boisterous personalities. She was the second evictee from the house, leaving after Tilli during the Double Eviction on the fourteenth day with five percent of the vote.

Gaelan

Gaelan Walker (born December 25, 1980) was a carpenter and model from Victoria. He entered the House on day zero along with the original housemates. He formed a relationship with Krystal.

She entered the house second after Rob and was given an incredibly enthusiastic reception by the women in the house. However, some time after Danielle entered the house Jade began to feel isolated from the rest of the house. She was given the task as the new Insider on day twenty-four after the previous Insider, Michael, had his role revealed by Big Brother to the housemates. Jade was the 6th housemate evicted from the house on day forty-two with 8% of the merged vote with Dino in a double eviction.

He was voted by the public on day thirty-eight along with Krystal as going Under the Radar and was subsequently put up for eviction later that week, but survived the vote. He has mild Tourette syndrome which causes him to have slight facial twitches and tics, something he revealed to his housemates early in the series. John won "Pommy Night", a British-themed Friday Night Live on day fifty-five, and took Claire to the Rewards Room. While in there, he won a digital camera from Box 3. Because of a discussion where John hinted about who he used his three-point twist on, he was banned from competing in Week 9's Friday Night Games. For the duration of the games, he had to sit on a stool in the Gym area, not even allowed to enter the arena.

Karen

Karen Forscutt (born August 19, 1969) was a Postal worker from Batemans Bay, NSW. She entered the house on day zero with her daughter Krystal and were immediately given the task to not let the other housemates find out that they were mother and daughter. They successfully passed the task and were immune from nominations the following week. In Week 3, Karen stated that she was sick of the game and was disappointed when Big Brother told the housemates that they were not guaranteed prizes. Her negative reaction to this provoked some of her housemates to nominate her for eviction that week. She was the clear favourite to leave that week and did so becoming the 3rd evicted from the house on day twenty-one with 36% of the merged vote.

Katie

Katie Hastings (born May 23, 1986) is a promotional model from Perth, Western Australia. She entered the house on day zero and formed a romantic relationship with fellow housemate Jamie. She won Friday Night Live on day forty-one, and chose to take Jamie to the Rewards Room with her. In Week 7, Camilla, Rob, and Dani were up for eviction. Katie used her Three Point Twist on Camilla, but the eviction line-up did not change. Katie was up for eviction in Week 8 with David and Jamie, and became the 9th evictee, leaving the house on day fifty-seven with 64% of the merged vote.

Krystal

Krystal Forscutt (July 12, 1986) is a promotional model from Batemans Bay, New South Wales. She entered the house on day zero with her mother Karen, who have both had matching breast implants, and they were given the task of keeping their relationship a secret for a week. They successfully passed the task and were immune from nominations the following week. After being immune, Krystal was up for nomination in Weeks 3, 4 and 6. While in the house, Krystal has entered a relationship with Gaelan. Krystal was injured during day sixty-two's Friday Night Games. She had to leave the Friday Night Live arena and was treated by a doctor, receiving nine stitches under her chin.

Krystal appeared on the cover of the June Issue of Ralph Magazine (Australians Men Magazine).

Lauren

Lauren is a 22 year old make-up artist from NSW. She entered the House as an Intruder on day sixty (June 21), and was evicted on day sixty-four in a Housemate-Intruder vote, having spent only four days in the house.

Michael

Michael McCoy (born June 16, 1980) is a political science student from Sydney. He was Filipino on his mother's side. Michael was the first housemate to enter the Big Brother House this year. On day two he was given the task of the Insider by Big Brother but chosen by the viewing public. He failed his first mission within minutes of being assigned the task, which was to secretly spill water on a bed that was occupied by two housemates. Michael opted to spill water on Gaelan's bed which at the time was only used by Gaelan himself. Because of that, and because he also didn't empty the whole bottle, he was awarded his first strike. Soon after, he was given other missions, one of which included getting at least 8 of his fellow housemates to nominate him at the next round of nominations. His technique to complete this mission was to fabricate a story about a son named Reuben that he had in the outside world. It was revealed on Michael's eviction night that Reuben is actually the name of one of Michael's real life friends. He received a backlash of conflict after Big Brother ousted him as the Insider especially from housemate Anna who had distant contact with her father. Despite no longer being the Insider, Michael continued to cause house conflict in Week 5 by hiding the housemates toothbrushes from them. He was the 5th housemate to be evicted from the house on day thirty-six, with 20% of the merged vote. The day after he was evicted, Michael appeared on the Nominations show and had a heated discussion with Gretel Killeen about the producer's use of editing regarding a scene where Michael and housemate David appeared to be kissing. The outfall resulted in media attention and the interview with Gretel was later labelled "The Gretel Incident" due to Gretel's defensive interviewing tactics during the scene.

The day after this incident Michael appeared on Rove Live and bluntly told host Rove McManus that he was not as funny as the show's recurring guest Peter Helliar.

Recently, he assulted music student Tristan Bauer, punching him in the head at the Eastern Hotel in Bondi Junction, Sydney.

Perry

Perry Apostolou is a 39 year old estate agent from NSW. She entered the House on day sixty (June 21). As of that date she had become the eldest housemate on Big Brother Austraila yet, as well as being the one hundredth housemate on the series.

Rob

Rob Rigley (born July 18, 1979) is a homosexual hairdresser from Wollongong. He entered the house on day twenty-four as an intruder, along with Danielle and Jade. He was up for eviction in Week 7 and Week 9. Rob was evicted on day sixty-four, being the last of the first set of Intruders to leave the house.

Rob has Lebanese hertiage and has stated he knew he was a homosexual from a very young age (4 years old). He lives with his grandmother.

Tilli

Matilda Clapham (Tilli) (born August 18, 1986) is a Psychology student from Adelaide Hills, South Australia. She entered the house on day zero with all the original housemates and was straight away seen to be bitchy. Tilli had a pash with housemate David on day four soonafter he came out which caused conflict with Camilla who was still recovering from the announcement that David was not attracted to her because he was homosexual. When prompted about who she found annoying in the diary room, she commented that Camilla was "forced and fake", which Camilla eventually watched replayed back to her when she was in the Revenge Room. Tilli was the 1st evicted from the house on day fourteen with 20% of the merged vote along with Elise in a double eviction.

Gina

Gina from New South Wales was intended as the sixteenth official Housemate, but withdrew from the show at the last minute (before the season began) due to a diagnosis of glandular fever. She was given a second opportunity to enter the house as one of the Intruders that entered the house on June 21's Intruders - Incoming show, but she did not arrive for lockdown at the Gold Coast as arranged, so she has been replaced by Darren, a stand-by housemate.

Weekly summary and highlights

Week 1

(up to and including Sunday night)

• Soon after entering the house, Housemate Michael was issued with, and accepted, the challenge by Big Brother to act as a secret saboteur in the house, known officially as The Insider. He was to play specific pranks at Big Brother's command, to work against and to annoy Housemates, and to attempt to stymie the Housemates' attempts to successfully complete assigned tasks. He had to remain undetected in these strategies and keep his role as The Insider a secret, or be automatically nominated for eviction.

• Michael failed his first mission within minutes of receiving it, and received his first strike because of it.

• It was revealed to viewers that Housemate David is actually homosexual, but had closeted himself to his fellow Housemates. David came out on Wednesday 26 April.

• Gaelan won the first Friday Night Live challenge, and chose runner-up Katie as his partner in the Rewards Room. The theme was Cavemen.

• A new twist was revealed to the Housemates; a fourth prize would be awarded to the winner of Friday Night Live. Three sealed boxes would be presented to the winner, marked 1, 2 and 3. The winner would select one box only before being allowed to open the box of their choice. The three boxes would inevitably contain a major prize (an overseas holiday), a medium-sized prize, and a booby prize. The three prizes would follow a theme or be associated with each other in a homonymous manner (eg. Cambodia, camera, Camembert).

• The three boxes were presented to Gaelan. They contained a trip to Thailand, a Thai banquet for all of the Housemates for the following night, and a large red bow tie. Gaelan chose the box containing the novelty bow tie.

Week 3

• Karen, Krystal and Camilla were nominated.

• Michael's 'Insider challenge' for the week was to ensure that he was nominated by eight Housemates in the next week's nominations. Success would mean immunity from eviction for the week. He spun a complex and fictitious tale of a son called Reuben and a paternity test supposedly taken shortly before he entered the House that revealed he was not (as he had believed for nearly nine years) Reuben's biological father, in a bid to make other Housemates think he wanted to leave the house.

• Michael won Friday Night Live, choosing Ashley to join him in the Rewards Room. The theme for the night was Back To Work (an office theme). The three boxes contained a trip to China, complimentary Chinese laundry services for three Housemates for the week, and a Chinese fortune cookie. Michael chose the box containing the laundry services.

• Karen was evicted on May 14.

• Prize money at the end of Week 3 was $610,000

• All three intruders, Rob, Jade and Danielle, go into the house at different times during the night.

• Michael and David nearly share a kiss in the bathroom. It was later revealed by Michael on Rove Live that it was a joke.

• Gaelan wins the rockstar-themed Friday Night Live for the second time and invites Krystal to the Rewards Room. They receive a special prize, which is a dinner at Tiger Island (situated inside Dreamworld, but outside the Big Brother House). This prize was hailed as a Big Brother "world first", due to the notion that these two Housemates left the confines of the House (as part of the game) and were returned an hour later.

• Anna was evicted on May 21.

• Jade was voted as the new Insider by the public and was notified that night.

• Prize money at the end of Week 4 is $545,000

Week 5

• Originally, Michael, Camilla and David were nominated. Because he won the Friday Night Games, Gaelen used his Three Point Twist on David, changing the final eviction line-up to Michael, Camilla, and John.

• Katie gives Dino the challenge of having to remain within 5 metres of Camilla for half the day in exchange for Katie's bread rations. When Camilla found Dino spending most of the day with her she thought he might have been interested in her.

• Katie celebrated her 20th birthday on May 23. Big Brother threw a surprise birthday party for her in the Rewards Room. The party had a Hawaiian beach theme where all the housemates dressed in Hawaiian costumes. Dino and Intruder Danielle pash at Katie's party. Camilla was upset because she thought Dino was interested in her.

• Jade's first Insider mission was on May 23, where she was only allowed to sing and not speak in her usual manner from sunrise to sunset. She spent the day in silence in an effort to complete her task, only having to resort to singing on a few occasions.

• On May 24, Michael stole a number of Housemates' toothbrushes and hid them in a sock under a bed in an effort to create conflict and entertainment within the House. The housemates have since located the toothbrushes after Michael informed them of their whereabouts in his farewell video. However, he did not say he was the one responsible for them being stolen, implicating that it was another housemate. Michael did all of this of his own accord, having been relieved of his Insider role the previous week.

• Intruder Danielle wins Friday Night Live, choosing John to join her in the Rewards Room. The theme for the night is Horror. The three boxes contain a trip to South Africa, a motor scooter, and a salad sandwich. Danielle chooses the box containing the sandwich.

• Michael is evicted from the House on May 28. After his name was read out he jumped off the couch, threw the bowl on the coffee table to the roof and ran outside, where he was chased and tackled by John and Gaelan.

• The housemates watch Michael's eviction message and find he is still creating tension within the house even after he has been evicted.

• Prize money at the end of Week 5 is $500,000

Week 6

• Originally in general nominations, Jade, Dino, Camilla and Krystal were nominated. Because Danielle won the Friday Night Games, Danielle used her Three Point Twist on Krystal. The three point twist removed Krystal from the list of nominees.

• Under the Radar nominations took place on day thirty-eight (May 29). This allowed the public to nominate a housemate on the basis of whether they have been using the "under the radar" strategy. Big Brother chose Krystal, John, Gaelen, Clare, Ashley as the "Under the Radar" candidates and viewer votes resulted in Krystal and John being added to nominations.

• During the Nominations show, evicted housemate Michael and host Gretel Killeen have a heated interview about whether Big Brother used editing techniques to misconstrue an incident where Michael appeared to kiss David. Killeen strongly defends the series insisting that misleading editing techniques are not used. Michael claims the incident was a joke but that by cutting the shot too soon it appeared to be serious. Killeen cleary appears uneasy and ambivalent about defending the actions of the Big Brother Program when later in the Nominations show, she apologises to Michael and the 'full' footage is shown. This includes only a few seconds extra of footage, albeit from a differnt angle, which implies that the move by David and Michael to kiss each other may have been a joke.

• Katie was the winner of Friday Night Live, and choose Jamie to join her in the rewards room. The theme was Caribbean. The prizes in the three boxes were a dreadlock, a motor scooter, and a $1000 JeansWest gift voucher. Katie selected the box with the motor scooter. (She was the first housemate to pick the best prize in this series)

• Jade succeeded in her Intruder task which gave her a one week immunity from nominations in the next week if she survived eviction on June 3.

• Jade and Dino are evicted on day forty-three, June 4.

• Prize money at the end of Week 6 is $470,000

Week 7

• Rob, Danielle and Camilla are nominated for eviction. Katie used her 3-point twist from winning Friday Night Live to remove points from Camilla (even though she nominated her herself), however, it did not affect the nominations.

• Dani's 19 birthday was on day forty-seven (June 8 2006). A party themed by the housemates' current task takes place. During the party Dani incurs a $5000 fine and is sent to the Punishment Room to clean dirty dentures after speaking without her microphone.

• David wins a World Cup themed Friday Night Live and takes Camilla to the Rewards Room. As part of his prize for winning, he must choose a box containing either a Vietnam trekking holiday, an Xbox 360 or a photo of the ex-housemates. David correctly guesses the box containing the holiday.

• Danielle is evicted on day fifty, June 11.

• Prize money at the end of Week 7 is $390,000

Week 8

• Jamie, Katie and John each received a strike for discussing nominations.

Special Shows

The Insider

The Insider was a live show during day two, where the results of the Insider public vote was revealed. Viewers had to vote for whether David, Camilla, or Michael should be appointed the insider. The Daily Show was also broadcasted as part of The Insider. Hosted by Gretel Killeen.

Truth, Lies, Eviction

Truth, Lies, Eviction was a live show used on day thirty-six. Big Brother felt that some housemates were lying or holding back on things about themselves, therefore flying Under the Radar. On day thirty-five, each housemate went into the diary room and was asked some questions. A lie-risk detector, said to be 90% accurate, was used to determine from the frequency of their voice whether or not they were lying. They weren't informed that a lie detector was used, or what the information would be used for until during Truth, Lies, Eviction was broadcast. The show also featured Michael's eviction, and the Daily Show was broadcasted as part of Truth, Lies, Eviction.

Under the Radar

Under the Radar was a live one-off show that was used during day thirty-eight. Big Brother selected five housemates from day thirty-six's Truth, Lies, Eviction show that he felt weren't contributing to the house, and they were up for a 24-hour public vote to be added to the list of housemates with the highest number of nominations. The public vote started on day thirty-seven's Nominations show. The housemates Big Brother felt were "flying under the radar" are Ashley, Claire, Gaelan, John, and Krystal. John and Krystal were added to the list of evictees, but on Eviction night they received enough SAVE votes for their percentages to be in minus numbers.

Intruders - Incoming

Intruders - Incoming was a live show that was broadcast on day sixty (June 21 2006). In the show, new Intruders Darren, and Perry entered the house. Lauren entered the House later, in UpLate. The Daily Show was broadcasted as part of Intruders - Incoming. The show was hosted by Gretel Killeen. A similar special was held on May 15, 2006 when housemates Rob, Danielle and Jade entered the house.
