Big Brother now set for October 5

After several days of searching for a new house and a new date to kick start the continent's biggest TV reality show, M-Net and Endemol SA have confirmed that a new Big Brother house has been found in Johannesburg, South Africa, following the devastating fire that demolished the original house on September 2.

The search was concluded after exploring all possible options both locally and internationally, for a suitable venue to produce the 9th season of Africa’s biggest reality show.

M-Net and Endemol SA now say that Big Brother Hotshots will officially launch on Sunday,  October  5.   As they countdown to the launch, fans across the continent can look forward to some pleasant surprises in true Biggie fashion.

One of the surprises, as far as Ghana is concerned, will be who will represent the country after Ghana’s selection was dropped, alongside a handful of other countries, for not processing travel documentation in good time for the show. 

The organisers have said they would pick a Ghanaian resident in South Africa to represent the country.
