Bachelorette Australia - Georgia Love - Season 2 - Episode Discussion - *Sleuthing - Spoilers* #2

@4health anything is possible. It could be there are 3 guys in Singapore, and thus no one eliminated at the RC before they go there, but the filming schedule doesn't seem to allow for a lot of time... will have to see though and sleuth in s/cap thread if there are any s/caps

Would there be mid season promos?

I don't think so seeing it's such a short season. They will have the finale promo on Thursday night after HTD. The FRC will be the following Thursday Night the 27th October just in time for the new couple to be at Melbourne Cup following Tuesday. The Melbourne Cup is shown on Channel Ten so they are an official sponsor of the spring racing.

Any of the boys follow calibre (?) suits. Richie was styled by them last spring racing season

With Lee, we saw vulnerability (also, HOLY HELL HOTNESS).

The F2 storyline:

Confidence
Vulnerability

It has been my experience with the NA versions of the show, when one is expressing confidence in the relationship and the other is uncertain, the confident one ends up F2 and the insecure one F1. Apparently, producers tell the F2 person how much the lead is into them, while telling the other one how much the lead is into others...hence, expecting really surprised reactions at the final rose ceremony. It will be interesting to see if the same holds true for the Australian version.

Oh wow, maybe I'm just naive but if that's true I find it really mean and manipulative of producers to treat people like that.  I realise they sign up for the show willingly, but they are real people after all.

I don't know if they do it in the Australian version but they do it all the time on the US show. Apparently so they can capture raw, unguarded reactions to film. Mean, but that's reality TV.

I just love how casual / chilled G is! In the new preview on Facebook, where she's sitting with Matty and Jake and she's like "alright whatd you got so far and we'll see if that can work" and takes a gulp of beer and relaxes into her seat! She's just so relatable and does these quirky little things that make me LOL! Fav bachelorette, I think im in love with her

Oh, it's true. Former cast spill the beans about stuff like this. If they actually read their contract, that would be the least of their worries. If you have never seen it, take a glance through this:

A couple of my favourite bits from that:


If I am selected to be a Participant in the Series, I, my actions, voice and sound effects during the pre-production period and on the Location during production will be filmed and recorded for the Series on an up to 24 hours a day, 7 days a week basis, including without limitation by means of hidden cameras (however, such hidden cameras, if any, shall not be positioned to intentionally capture images of you urinating or defecating in the bathroom) and microphones and I hereby consent to such videotaping, filming or recording and knowingly and voluntarily waive any privacy rights I may have, regardless of whether I am aware that recording of my actions and conversations is taking place.

I acknowledge that interviews on or in connection with the Series may consist of another Participant and/or my statements about other Participants, personal relationships and, perhaps, the opinions and statements of my family and/or friends and other people connected with the Series, and that some of these statements and/or statements by the host of the Series, Producer or Producer’s employees or agents or others may be considered surprising, humiliating, embarrassing, derogatory, defamatory, or otherwise offensive or injurious to me, the viewing audience, Producer or Producer’s employees or agents and/or other third parties.

Lee. But he followed them long before I think. He was also dressed by Calibre a lot on the show.
