@Bobette, here is the full face of the girl in the red swimmers, I thought it was strapless but it's not.

Does anyone based in Aussie recognize this airport hanger? Matty was papped arriving for an HTD visit at this airport...TIA.

mercieme wrote:@Bobette......I just posted in the filming thread that Matty was on HTD the week of May 7th. There are several articles that referred to those girls as the final 7 including DT which is usually right I believe. If Matty was at the Logie on Apr 24th then I think its possible that the F7 were those seen on that boxing date since Richie began his HTDs right after the Logies last year.

In addition I think that FRC was on May 19th. I am basing this on Osher's SM activity. Osher posted through filming but went silent both on IG and Twitter that day. Very suspect IMO.

Yes I do agree that those are the most likely final 7, I was just speculating how the numbers could have dropped from 11 to 7 in less than a week if the dates of April 16-18 for the bikini shoot and April 21 for the boxing date are correct.

If there are intruders in the bikini pic (I don't recognise the girl sitting on the floor in the sunglasses, for example) then maybe those girls got sent packing, and then a double elimination at a RC, or at a two-on-one as happened with Sam & Rhys in Georgia's season. They would have needed to tweak things a bit/make up time to make up for Matty's break, IMO. Break seems to have been mid-late March to very early April I think?  

Thanks for posting the second pic of the girl in red - I still can't make out if it's Elise but interesting that she's the only one in that shade of red which is potentially a sponsor colour this season IMO (I'm expecting Colgate) so that could be significant, whomever she is. If Elise is not in this photo then maybe Elise got a second SD since we know she doesn't get eliminated before boxing, but that seems very close in time to her first one.  

Another thought is that they may be photographing Elise or someone else while this pap pic is being taken, since the camera is pointed at someone across the pool and the girls are angled/looking in that direction.  So may actually be 12 girls all up.

@Bobette....despite the break that Matty took, his filming schedule actually was about on par with both Sam W's and Richie's (AAL also posted this somewhere). That said for Matty's season, April 16-18 timeframe was the start of week 7 filming. For Sam W and Richie they had about 7 girls and 8 girls remaining respectively at the start of week 7 and both seasons had intruders on there.

Since Matty's season completed about the same time as that of Sam W's and Richie's; IMO there were no intruders on his season. So either the swimming outfit photoshoot with the 11 girls or more took place before April 16-18 or Matty eliminated more than 4 girls that week to get to 7 girls by April 21....all jmo though.

I know, so disappointed. But in good news, Masterchef finals week is next week, which would put the final of Masterchef on Sunday 23rd, so if they do Wednesday and Thursday for Bach again that would put the premiere on the 26th?

I think they might start advertising the premiere tomorrow.  Usually things are "coming soon" until exactly 2 weeks before they air, then they give a date.  Especially with 2 girls being previewed today - IMO we'll get a Laura B preview and an air date tomorrow.

Last night the Survivor previews gave the start date of 30 July, so it's interesting that the Bachelor ones haven't yet if it's airing beforehand - I do think it will premiere 26th though.

Sorry @Bobette I missed your earlier point about the camera pointing to someone in the swimming photoshoot; the blonde girl in the one piece yellow swimmer is missing from the one pic that shows 11 girls so she may be the one with with the camera turned on her and that would make 12 girls on that date IMO. Hopefully someone else can confirm the number of girls on that photoshoot though...TIA.

I agree @catalyst, 26th is most likely for me too. I think they'll come out with a date today - we will see! Very interesting about Survivor getting a firm date already - maybe they don't like to toy with Survivor viewers the same way they do Bach fans.

Ah yes, you're right. The blonde girl is Simone so she may have been getting photographed in that bottom pic

Per @Sundy's post here, Simone was back on her SM by April 21 so I'd reckon the pics of the girls in swimsuits was  like @mercieme posted and around/before April 16 since April 21 there were ~7 girls left. Add in that Logies was April 23, then I'd think that week after Logies was for the F5 (who usually have a GD with mini-1on1s during that F5 episode) and then HTDs filmed the beginning of May, then FDs, and then MTP/LCD/FRC finale before or around May 20. 

May need to take this to the filming schedule thread to help with the timeline

We've had the nurturing nanny (Tara), the villain hair and feather Ruffler (Leah), the sexy Tahitian goddess (Elora) and now, of course, the sweet quirky girl (Cobie)... 
Well done @Bobette on calling it! 

Laura has to be coming soon!

Thanks AAL for bringing that over.

Awww....me likey Cobie, she seems very sweet. I wonder if she makes it to F4.

Woo hoo!  Now all we need is Laura B to round off the five previews and the stage will be set.  Hope we get a few more though!
