Nine’s Big Brother to return in 2014

big brother logoThe Nine Network’s reality competition Big Brother will return in 2014.

The news of the show’s recommission was announced during this evening’s finale episode, broadcast live across the eastern seaboard from the show’s headquarters at Dreamworld on the Gold Coast. During the finale, Tim Dormer was crowned the winner of the series and took home $250,000.

Speaking prior to the finale, Alex Mavroidakis, the show’s executive producer, told Mumbrella’s sister title Encore: “We’ll be back in 2014 and with any luck we’ll be here in 2015, 16 and 17. It was kind of a no-brainer for Nine.”

The series, produced by Southern Star and stripped across the week, has consistently hovered around the 800,000 mark, but performed well in the key advertising demographic of 25-to-54.
