Overview
- Sat.1 confirms the planned house was left unfinished after the original builder’s financial problems, so this season unfolds in a construction-site setting totaling 365 square meters (185 m² inside, 180 m² outside).
- With Harald Glööckler and Désirée Nick now official, the cast is complete at 14, and Nick becomes the show’s first returning contestant.
- The living setup is deliberately austere with rubble, plastic chairs and tools, Dixi toilets, sparse kitchen gear, and split sleeping that sends part of the group to outdoor field beds.
- Coverage includes 24/7 surveillance reportedly from 52 cameras plus established features such as challenges, a kiosk run by former winner Aaron Troschke, and a games arena overseen by referee Florian “Schmiso” Schmidt-Sommerfeld.
- Viewers vote on outcomes as the celebrities compete for a €100,000 prize.
