Australia's favourite reality show, Big Brother returns for its 8th year and kicks off with an amazing night on Monday April 28 with new hosts Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O.
The concept is simple; a group of people share a house sealed from the outside world for up to 3 months. Thirty-seven hidden cameras watch their every move and 96 microphones pick up their every word 24-hours a day. There is nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, every moment in the House may be broadcast live on the net/and or in segments in the various Big Brother programs. The Housemates receive minimal interference from Big Brother and ultimately the happenings in the House are created from their day to day experiences. The audience ultimately decides who wins.

The Twelve Commandments according to the main man himself are:

- No contact with the outside world
- Nominations are compulsory
- Nominations cannot be discussed with other Housemates
- Housemates can only ever talk with big Brother in the Diary Room
- Housemates may not communicate in code and/or foreign or sign languages
- Housemates may never act violently
- Housemates may never bully anyone
- Housemates must not knowingly defame or vilify any individual or group
- All sexual attention must be invited and consent be mutual and informed
- All tasks are compulsory
- Housemates cannot discuss former series or what they will do if they win
- Housemates must always obey Big Brother

The Thirteenth Commandment is that Big Brother reserves the right to change the rules at any time. So what will Big Brother have in store for 2008? Who will go in to the house - will we have a nuclear physicist, a meter maid, a rock star or even a priest ? From thousands of applications the final Housemates have now been chosen via a newly
implemented search strategy and a first time interactive online voting system. What twists and turns will Big Brother have in store for the Housemates? What will the Big Brother House look like? Are any of those conspiracy theories we have all been reading about for months even remotely true? Will there be a twist in 2008? What´s at stake for the winner? For the answer to all that and more watch on Monday 28 April at 7.00pm on TEN.

Big Brother is produced by Endemol Southern Star for Network Ten.
