Format
editBig Brother has chosen 30 hopefuls to move into the house. 14 housemates were chosen by Big Brother and the final housemate was picked by a public vote. Each housemate had a secret which one has to keep in the house, otherwise the housemate will automatically face eviction and the housemate who guessed it correctly will receive immunity from evictions and final ticket, but an incorrect guess will also result in facing eviction.
However, the housemate will only have the ticket as long as no other secret is disclosed. The ticket will be going over until a certain point in the series where the owner will have the ticket for good and be a finalist.
Furthermore, housemates will nominate every two weeks with the housemates with the most votes face eviction. They will participate in weekly tasks and matches for treats or to avoid punishments.
