The 20 housemates competing on the new season of Big Brother in Australia have been revealed (yes, you read that right: TWENTY housemates).
The group is the show's most diverse ever, ranging in age from 19 to 62, and includes several familiar faces.
Big Brother has previously revealed that every episode will feature an eviction as the players compete in a number of challenges to ensure their survival.
The first episode airs next Monday on Seven and will see the first 12 players enter the house, with four more joining in Tuesday's episode and the remaining four being introduced on Wednesday.
Read on to find out more about this year's housemates!
