00:00:02Previously...
00:00:04We've never had a showdown quite like this.
00:00:08I love this man, I love you.
00:00:10Be brave.
00:00:11The fight for the final immunity...
00:00:15...pushed Jackson to the breaking point.
00:00:18Will you give it to me or not?
00:00:19I'll take you.
00:00:20Give it.
00:00:21I need it more than you do.
00:00:23And it was Caleb and Loz...
00:00:25You inspired us so much, man.
00:00:27...standing strong in the air...
00:00:30I need to show strength.
00:00:31Just think of Win and Nicholas.
00:00:33Jackson, are you surprised that they haven't made a deal...
00:00:36...and they haven't stepped down yet?
00:00:38Probably no deals to be made, Dave.
00:00:41Maybe the person they want to make a deal with...
00:00:43...is already sitting on the bench.
00:00:45Oh.
00:00:46We're so proud of you, man. We love you so much.
00:00:49Caleb wins immunity.
00:00:52In an earth-shattering penultimate tribal...
00:00:57Loz.
00:00:57Caleb chose to risk it all.
00:01:01To a left.
00:01:03Who will become...
00:01:05...Soul Survivor?
00:01:06Who will be.
00:01:37No way!
00:01:39Is that croissants?
00:01:41Bro.
00:01:42Oh, it's so fitting.
00:01:46It's so fitting that we get to share this breakfast together.
00:01:50I know, eh?
00:01:51I peep, egg and bacon.
00:01:56Honestly, last night's tribal council, it was such a hard decision.
00:02:04I was 100% on taking Loz to the very end.
00:02:08But when I was standing on those poles, I lost my faith and my trust in Loz.
00:02:15We had said, like, look, if Jackson goes out, then we'll just get off.
00:02:20But neither of us were getting off.
00:02:22And I was like, well, if she's not getting off, that's pretty loud.
00:02:27Yeah, man.
00:02:28I realised she's gonna take Jackson here.
00:02:30And it was that moment I realised I cannot afford to get off these poles no matter what.
00:02:36So then, I had to choose, who do I wanna pitch my redemption story next to?
00:02:43The most beautiful, spirited kids ever.
00:02:46And it just goes to show, she is putting in the best work for them.
00:02:50You know, like, your pitch made a lot more sense to take you than her.
00:02:55I'll give you that.
00:02:58But now, it's not gonna be easy to win tonight.
00:03:02Tonight's gonna be a showdown of the ages, bro.
00:03:06It comes down to who is gonna be able to sell their story better.
00:03:11Me and Jackson have played this game of cat and mouse going after each other.
00:03:17But Jackson are showmen through and through.
00:03:21I mean, that's what he does for a living.
00:03:24He will come out swinging tonight.
00:03:29We've got one more leg to go.
00:03:31Yeah, man. It's been a crazy ride.
00:03:36I ain't sleeping on Caleb.
00:03:37I refuse to underestimate people in this game.
00:03:41Hey, Jax.
00:03:42Made the best man win tonight.
00:03:45I believe that.
00:03:47But I'm a performer.
00:03:48I'm a showman.
00:03:50I'm gonna have the jury eating out of the palm of my hand,
00:03:53bringing me to the final two.
00:03:55It is the $500,000 mistake that Caleb did not have to make.
00:04:35Zit.
00:04:37Wow.
00:04:39That's trot.
00:04:41We'll now bring in the members of our jury.
00:04:44Mark.
00:04:46Blanche.
00:04:47Finn.
00:04:49Simon.
00:04:50Cameron.
00:04:52Brooke.
00:04:52Julie.
00:04:54Sally.
00:04:56And Moz.
00:04:57Moz.
00:04:58Yeah!
00:05:02She's not happy with you.
00:05:08She's not happy with you.
00:05:14She's not happy with you.
00:05:20She's not happy with you.
00:05:22She's not.
00:05:30So here we are, day 45, two rivals in a showdown for ultimate redemption.
00:05:45you two have gone as far as you can go in this game tonight the power shifts to the jury
00:05:52nine people that you had a hand in voting out of this game
00:05:57will now decide which of you wins the title of sole survivor and the half a million dollars
00:06:05that goes along with it so Caleb would you like to kick us off okay I'd love to hello everyone
00:06:19what an honor it's been to be able to work with the most amazing special people and play this crazy
00:06:28game it's been a wild ride I want to kind of start on my redemption I feel like my whole
00:06:36life guys I
00:06:37have been a bit of an underdog I have been underestimated and look I feel like I was
00:06:45underestimated in this game Caleb chaos was almost a bit of a front but I played a very tactical game
00:06:54and it's literally led me here to be a final two I felt like everybody knew what my my mission
00:07:03was
00:07:04it was the year of the underdogs I pitched that us underdogs we are gonna really struggle against the
00:07:12best players so why don't we all unite and get out the returnees but then I made an alliance with
00:07:20Mark
00:07:22I played one of the best double agent games I've ever seen and I'll put a big blindside on one
00:07:29of the
00:07:29hugest players of the game then after that I managed to stay in the right majority alliance create the
00:07:40right relationships with the right people the whole time to make the final four and then me and Loz we
00:07:47teamed up we put two votes on Sally Sally and Jacko put two votes on me we went to fire
00:07:54and ladies and
00:07:55gentlemen boys and girls I made the quickest fire in a challenge in Australian survivor history then we
00:08:04went to an individual immunity challenge and I finally won my first one I lasted four hours and
00:08:11ten minutes on those pegs which then led to me one of the hardest decisions why the hell did I
00:08:19take Jacko and
00:08:21not lost as I was up there I realized something she's taking Jackson otherwise we could just get off and
00:08:32I
00:08:32I was like I gotta take Jackson if I want to win so I had to get her out sorry
00:08:38Loz
00:08:43I'm so close to being redeemed it's just an amazing feeling and if I win today and that's it then
00:08:51I have
00:08:51been truly redeemed in my big redemption arc I'm not a wannabe I am soul survivor thank you
00:09:12Jackson what would you like to say to the jury
00:09:19hi guys I am so grateful to you all for the game that we played together with redemption on the
00:09:27line
00:09:27we all came in here for something to prove something that bonded us day one started out on the bottom
00:09:34I had
00:09:37no game but I earned my right to keep playing in this game dirty Harry I took out a nearly
00:09:46100 day
00:09:47player with just 10 days in this game and a sad looking fleet I got very lucky in tribe swap
00:09:54but I
00:09:55didn't let the luck just go to waste I had Ben and Brooke who needed a new alliance and we
00:10:02gathered
00:10:03all of the troops we looked around at a target and who'd we land on the big bad Asha and
00:10:10then we got
00:10:10her the beauty and the beast ride it home come merge this is where I made I think my biggest
00:10:19move in
00:10:20the game and the hardest move in the game Ben I'm oh I'm sorry
00:10:29but I saw Keely Brooke and Simon and I saw my ticket to the final four of this game
00:10:35I traded one beautiful shield for three more beautiful shields
00:10:43then lo and behold come end game I have no allies left in this game the only way through
00:10:48is to win a necklace and you know what I did I got myself a two-piece feet I clutch
00:10:54up and I fill
00:10:55a hole in my resume in the physical challenge department and battled my way through to the final three
00:11:06I fought so hard tooth and nail every day I got knocked down I got back up against smarter
00:11:13it wasn't survival it was evolution I proved that I was the biggest beast in the beauty and the beast
00:11:19I
00:11:19was the only one in club kaput that didn't go kaput and I am gonna be the only underdog left
00:11:26barking on
00:11:26the mountain I'm sure as heck the only underdog that would run side by side with the big dogs
00:11:32and I've earned your respect I learned from you I played with you and now I sit here and I
00:11:41outlasted you
00:11:52okay jury you've heard two very compelling pitches from Caleb and Jackson
00:11:59now finally it's your turn to ask the questions
00:12:21okay jury you've heard two very compelling pitches from Caleb and Jackson
00:12:28now finally it's your turn to ask the questions find out what you need from them
00:12:33to make your half a million dollar decision
00:12:44all right well Keely yes you got a question I do when I came to play survivor I had a
00:12:54bit of a
00:12:54strategy which was to commit as many survivor crimes as I could
00:13:01and I leave with quite a rap sheet and so I want to hear from you guys about whether your
00:13:11game is
00:13:13similar to someone with a rap sheet of petty crimes or is it major crimes look I got a bit
00:13:20of a rap sheet
00:13:21going moments like winning a fire challenge moments like staying on awful pegs for four and a half hours
00:13:28or getting out of redemption beach I got a few there that I kind of covered in my opening pitch
00:13:38think of crimes like risk okay so is there any crime or risk that you wish that you did make
00:13:47and you didn't
00:13:48I think my biggest risk I didn't take was putting more faith in the laws
00:13:55I think throughout the game I had opportunities to really go forward with her in this game and trusting her
00:14:02survivor instincts because she she played great great game
00:14:14Brooke
00:14:15Brooke
00:14:15Jacko I think out of everyone here you are the one person that didn't come out laser focused on gunning
00:14:25for returnees the way that you used us to your advantage I found incredible and very very rare
00:14:36I would just I don't want to say that we're talking about fear or hesitation to work with returnees this
00:14:46man right here was not afraid to talk to me on night one but he also wanted you gone from
00:14:51the first
00:14:51trouble I needed to learn from the best and what a better way than to find the best players and
00:15:00like
00:15:01but the thing is Mark you know I I that was really hard for me in the end to make
00:15:05that flip
00:15:09I'll jump in so can you claim a move if you weren't the one driving it
00:15:18like I feel like that Mark but I'm the one that made the decision that said Mark's going
00:15:25well it was either you or Mark and I had to make that decision and I go the numbers are
00:15:33there there's
00:15:34a plan there I want to make it happen this night and I made it happen
00:15:41I've got a question for you both how much time do you both believe that you were driving your game
00:15:47having influence over your game versus being a passenger you're allowed to be a passenger in
00:15:52this game as long as you kind of earned the right to let someone else drive I played a big
00:15:59flashy game
00:16:01I spoke openly at tribal council I was pretty brash but I could back it up because I hid myself
00:16:10in very
00:16:11tight shields and when I made these big moves like eliminating Ben and placing myself under the care
00:16:17of Keely Brooke and Simon I took myself away in there did I have to continue to drive votes hard
00:16:24every
00:16:25single day no that's a good way to put a target on your back my problem in this game is
00:16:31when people
00:16:31play passenger for too long and hide in the numbers yeah look I am with the underdogs that I had
00:16:42on my
00:16:42tribe I was also pitching and we were literally waiting for opportunities to strike and if you
00:16:50weren't such a passenger can you give an example on a time that you were driving and influencing a
00:16:55decision when we were in the when we were in the driver's seat every single time working with the
00:17:03returnees at the same time having my foot in the other door with underdogs you know what I mean
00:17:09waiting and watching for enough numbers there and and being able to play this big amazing double game I
00:17:19I think that look your double agent play and you're flying under the radar and an espionage and all
00:17:26that is amazing but if you're claiming that that I'm gonna sit here and claim it too because in my
00:17:33head
00:17:33the concept of double agent is simply playing survivor playing this game is lying and telling
00:17:39people that you're going to this plan but actually it's going to be this one can I can I just
00:17:43jump in
00:17:44Caleb can you explain to the jury how much you manipulated me you have to explain this
00:17:49because you did you absolutely did from day one until I got voted off and you could have
00:17:54voted Ben or you could have voted me and you chose to vote me I literally played a game where
00:18:02I could
00:18:03totally have Mark as my alliance and I would get every single little bit of information from Mark and
00:18:11do the same thing to the other group at one time I'm telling Mark all these crazy names from the
00:18:18underdogs none of them were real and at the same time I'm working with Mark saying oh yeah I'm gonna
00:18:24do this big Ben vote I saw you do the double agent thing with Mark and I saw Mark believe
00:18:32you until
00:18:33the very last second the girls thought that Mark needed a t-shirt that said I love Caleb because
00:18:38everyone was trying to tell Mark do not trust Caleb and yet he still did
00:18:50Mark you got a question yeah um Jackson you're a great presenter you're a great speaker and it's very appealing
00:19:01and particularly at a final travel council
00:19:04but what is bothering me is that you're very focused on theatrics and and the big players however I think
00:19:14at some times as the mayor of Drew Villa watching people come in here you've ignored other people
00:19:24and they have a vote just as much as I have a vote
00:19:29so are you at all concerned that you have ignored some people on this jury
00:19:35and that may affect your chances of winning this game
00:19:50so
00:20:02Jackson are you at all concerned
00:20:07that you have ignored some people on this jury
00:20:09and that may affect your chances of winning this game?
00:20:131,000%.
00:20:14I think it's been my biggest pitfall in my game.
00:20:17I feel, on a personal level,
00:20:20I have let relationships go by the wayside.
00:20:23And it is a massive regret of mine in this game.
00:20:26It is a part of the game that I'm going to put two hands up
00:20:29and say, if I ignored you throughout the last 45 days,
00:20:32it was not personal.
00:20:34Being out here is hard.
00:20:36And a lot of the time, I would only think about the game.
00:20:40I'm one of those people that you ignored.
00:20:45I was on the game with you for 18 days
00:20:49and I watched you have personal chats
00:20:52with lots of people around me.
00:20:54And I really made an effort to talk to you, to get to know you.
00:20:57I could tell you 10 things about you.
00:21:00Could you tell me something personal about me
00:21:02that you think that you asked me?
00:21:04Because you're asking me to vote for you tonight.
00:21:07I need to know that you know something about me.
00:21:13I'm going to sit here and say I have no idea.
00:21:20I'm sure along the 18 days, there was a question asked.
00:21:23But if you feel undervalued in this moment
00:21:26about the relationship that I presented to you,
00:21:28then that is your truth.
00:21:30And as I said, only something that I can say sorry for.
00:21:37Caleb, the flip side to my question to Jackson,
00:21:42how did you intentionally position yourself differently
00:21:45to people in the tribe to make them engage with you?
00:21:49So, like, how did you become a double agent?
00:21:54What I tried to do was just find something
00:21:58that I can individually relate to with everyone.
00:22:03It's like, you're all so different.
00:22:06And if I can find one thing in common with you,
00:22:10then maybe we can start something here.
00:22:14I also feel like I played a much different game.
00:22:18Like, I never punched down on people.
00:22:21I never called people out.
00:22:23And I've always wanted to be a safe place for everyone.
00:22:28And when you're having a hard day, you can fall on that.
00:22:34Your positivity was infectious, for sure.
00:22:37Thank you, bro.
00:22:39All right, Loz, have you got a question?
00:22:41Yeah, um, congratulations, guys.
00:22:44I'm really appreciating your honesty tonight,
00:22:46so let's keep it going.
00:22:49Jackson!
00:22:50At times, I've felt that you've had these big showman moves
00:22:56and I haven't really seen Jackson.
00:23:01And it wasn't really until we'd been on those pegs
00:23:05for, like, three hours,
00:23:08I started to see Jackson.
00:23:12And I just want to understand why it took so long.
00:23:21I don't give myself to people,
00:23:24and especially not very easily.
00:23:26I feel like I have a wall up all the time,
00:23:31and in wrestling, that helps, because you can just be your character.
00:23:35And it has been a detriment, not just my game, but my whole life.
00:23:40But being out here with you all
00:23:42and sharing redemption stories has really changed me to my core.
00:23:49And it's crazy that the only two things that I feel like have opened me up
00:23:55and made me be vulnerable and changed my spirit are professional wrestling and now Survivor.
00:24:05I dropped out of university to chase my dreams of being a professional wrestler.
00:24:11And I think it broke my parents' heart.
00:24:15I came out here day one just looking for redemption,
00:24:20looking to prove to my mum that everything that I did wasn't selfish.
00:24:25I was doing it for her.
00:24:27And guys, she's here.
00:24:29She's never left the country before.
00:24:31She's never left Australia before.
00:24:32And she came onto the show, and she watched me go through three hours of hell.
00:24:40She said, I'm proud of you.
00:24:50It's kind of all I've ever wanted, really.
00:24:53It's worth the 45 days.
00:24:55It's worth the pegs.
00:24:56It's worth the blindsides.
00:24:57It's worth everything out here.
00:25:03And she deserves the world.
00:25:06And I want to give that to her.
00:25:12Caleb?
00:25:14We kind of found each other.
00:25:17And I feel like we created a great bond together.
00:25:20And we really became ride and dies for each other.
00:25:27But something shifted.
00:25:29Something changed.
00:25:31Something happened with our ride and die.
00:25:34So I really want to know why and at what point you chose to write my name down
00:25:41so I can understand why I'm the one sitting here and Jackson's sitting there.
00:25:56This is the hardest part of my game.
00:26:00Every single thing I said to you was 100% true about you were my ride or die.
00:26:05But then as I went in my fourth hour of agony, I went into my own head like, hang on
00:26:12a sec.
00:26:12Like, you've played an insane game.
00:26:14I'm not going to beat that.
00:26:16And then I thought, hang on a sec.
00:26:18There's also a single mum of two teenage girls who really need this.
00:26:23Why are they going to give it to the weirdo snake guy?
00:26:28And so I'm going to have to make the worst decision I've ever made in Survivor.
00:26:34But was it the worst decision or your best decision?
00:26:44I want you to claim these badass moves.
00:26:47It's epic.
00:26:49Like, you took out your ride and die at three people.
00:26:54I want you to claim it because I'm here and it's hard and it hurts.
00:26:58And I want to hear how awesome it is.
00:27:00It is a massive move.
00:27:02I did a Jackson on Ben.
00:27:04I did a Caleb on Mark.
00:27:06It was a huge moment for me and I'm sorry that you, you know, copped it last night.
00:27:15But I just thought, this is the only chance I'm ever going to get to actually get to final
00:27:20two, to make a pitch and have a chance at Soul Survivor.
00:27:24I've always needed this moment to really change my life and change the life of others.
00:27:30Because I've always come from a place where there was no money.
00:27:33And the money that I might get here, it could really change not the life of me, but the life
00:27:40of my future, my children, my children's children.
00:27:45It could really be generationally different.
00:27:50When it comes to redemption, as a kid I knew the man I wanted to be.
00:27:56I never had the opportunity.
00:28:00But now, I know that I can pretty much do anything after doing something like this.
00:28:06And my redemption story has come full circle.
00:28:12I know that I said, you know, if I win, then it has.
00:28:15But like, deep down, we all know that I hit that redemption out here.
00:28:19And that's, that's, you know, that's worth a million dollars to me.
00:28:29All right, jury.
00:28:30You should have all the information you need to decide who deserves that title of Soul Survivor.
00:28:36And the half a million dollars that goes along with it.
00:28:42So, the last time.
00:28:45It's time to vote.
00:29:07Remember, tonight you are voting for a winner.
00:29:13The last time.
00:29:15It's time to vote.
00:29:21Mark, you're up.
00:29:30It's a while.
00:29:34Mate, great game.
00:29:36So proud to vote for you.
00:29:37Win or lose.
00:29:39It's a pleasure playing with you.
00:29:40Hope you win.
00:30:07Jackson, not only did you find your feet in this game.
00:30:11You found yourself in this game.
00:30:14And I think that is the ultimate redemption.
00:30:27Keeley.
00:30:29Zero.
00:30:55I'll count the votes.
00:31:20Well, 24 people entered this game looking for redemption.
00:31:25And I think it's safe to say that you all well and truly have found it.
00:31:32It's been an incredible season with an electric finish.
00:31:37Now, Caleb and Jackson, the only thing left to do is read the vote.
00:31:47We're going to do that back in Australia.
00:31:51We're going to do that back in Australia.
00:31:53I'll see you there.
00:31:57Hold on.
00:31:59I'll see you there.
00:32:00Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:32:02Oh, oh, oh, oh!
00:32:03Ah, oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh.
00:32:06Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:32:07Oh, yeah, oh, oh.
00:32:22I'm reading it.
00:33:23Welcome to the grand finale.
00:33:28How special is this?
00:33:31I couldn't think of a better spot to wrap up this incredible season
00:33:35than right here on the iconic Sydney Harbour
00:33:39with our amazing fairs.
00:33:44Are you guys ready to bring this one home?
00:33:51Jackson, Caleb, you did what no one else could do.
00:33:55You made it to the end.
00:33:57Congratulations.
00:34:00One of you is about to be crowned sole survivor
00:34:03and walk away with half a million dollars.
00:34:09Caleb, I know you only come in two modes.
00:34:12How are you feeling?
00:34:12Chaotic or calm right now?
00:34:14Look, I'm pretty calm.
00:34:15You know, I've had a lot of time to think and reflect,
00:34:18so chaos will come out.
00:34:19Don't worry about that.
00:34:20Right now, I'm pretty good.
00:34:22I'm pretty good.
00:34:24Jackson, you've been wondering what's in this urn
00:34:26for a few months now.
00:34:27How are you feeling?
00:34:28I am feeling fantastic.
00:34:29How are we tonight?
00:34:35It's the reunion.
00:34:36It's the finale.
00:34:37I said, how are we tonight?
00:34:50All right, these votes are for the winner.
00:34:55Go, Caleb.
00:34:56For the final time, I'll read the votes.
00:35:08First party.
00:35:13Jackson.
00:35:21Jackson.
00:35:24Go, go, go, go.
00:35:36Caleb, that's one vote Caleb, two votes Jackson.
00:35:46Caleb, we're tied, that's two votes Caleb, two votes Jackson.
00:36:06Jackson, we're tied again, that's three votes Caleb, three votes Jackson.
00:36:24Caleb, that's four votes Caleb, three votes Jackson.
00:36:37The winner of Australia's Survivor Regentship, Caleb.
00:36:43I did it. I did it. I did it. I did it. I did it.
00:37:12And half a million dollars, Caleb.
00:37:22We've crowned a crazy winner in a season full of crazy gameplay.
00:37:27This season might be wrapped, but another one is just around the corner.
00:37:33In 2027, Survivor will be back.
00:37:3824 new players, they come to the world's first feet.
00:37:43In a brand new location, Malaysia.
00:37:49Well, Survivor Reunion is just after the break and nothing is off the table.
00:37:54The blast, the plot, the betrayal, the biggest moves of the season.
00:37:59They're ready to spill it all right after this.
00:38:18Welcome to the Survivor Reunion.
00:38:23This season was all about redemption.
00:38:2624 people hit the beach with something to prove.
00:38:30We hoped they'd play hard, but these players threw everything at the wall.
00:38:34The gameplay was cutthroat and completely unpredictable.
00:38:39We had returnees, we had revolutions, bluffs, blindsides, breakouts of big move-itis.
00:38:47We had more alliances than days in the game.
00:38:49Let's hear it for our players for an incredible season of Australia's Survivor.
00:38:59And it must be the year of the underdog.
00:39:02Because Caleb has just been crowned sole survivor and awarded half a million dollars.
00:39:10Thank you all. I couldn't be done without you all.
00:39:14You guys are the stars.
00:39:17Caleb, you said you've never been a winner. How does it feel?
00:39:21Oh, mate, I can't process it right now.
00:39:24You know what I mean? I'm still the same Caleb from Bronia and Ferntree Gully.
00:39:27So, honestly, at the end of the day, I wouldn't be sitting here crowned sole survivor
00:39:32without the help of so many amazing people.
00:39:35You know what I mean?
00:39:36People like Mark and Loz and Sally and Don and so many people.
00:39:40I could go through the whole of them.
00:39:41Plenty of time for shout outs later.
00:39:45Caleb, you are laughing your head off, embracing the chaos,
00:39:48grabbing fish out of the ocean with your bare hands.
00:39:53Does it feel like this game was just tailor-made for you?
00:39:55It actually is, man.
00:39:56Like, I've always loved being a wild card.
00:39:59I've always loved survival.
00:40:01And it was just in a big nutshell for me.
00:40:04I can't believe it took me this long to go.
00:40:07Now, Jackson, you're not walking away with the $500,000.
00:40:11But how proud are you of your game?
00:40:14Oh, I'm ridiculously proud of the way I played,
00:40:17especially considering that Survivor is completely new territory for me.
00:40:21But I learned from the greats such as Brook and Mark and Simon.
00:40:26And, man, it's called redemption for a reason.
00:40:29I went out there with something to prove and I proved it.
00:40:32Well, mate, you played a hell of a game.
00:40:34You weren't afraid to ruffle some feathers.
00:40:37Who do you think voted for you?
00:40:39Voted for me?
00:40:40Hmm.
00:40:41I...
00:40:42I want a note too!
00:40:45You dirty dog!
00:40:47Chill out!
00:40:47Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:40:48You won, bro. Chill out, chill out.
00:40:49Well, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:40:50How about we just take a look?
00:40:53Hey!
00:40:54All right.
00:40:55Oh, my hit list is about to get so big.
00:40:59For the last time, it's time to vote.
00:41:07Mark, you're up.
00:41:15Mate, great game.
00:41:17So proud to vote for you.
00:41:18Oh, David Stan.
00:41:18Win or lose, it's a pleasure playing with you.
00:41:21Hope you win.
00:41:22Jackson.
00:41:23Not only did you find your feet in this game,
00:41:27you found yourself in this game.
00:41:29And I think that is the ultimate redemption.
00:41:32You had the ability to make so many people fall in love with you
00:41:37and it was incredible to watch.
00:41:40What you've done to get to where you are is inspiring
00:41:43and I hope Scott Green can buy a few more outfits with this
00:41:48and that he lets Devo get in the ring.
00:41:49You played an incredible strategic and social game
00:41:53and I think you've got this in the bag.
00:41:57Great.
00:42:00Oh, my Prince of Goodfoot, you have made it and I am so proud.
00:42:05You played a phenomenal game and you stay true to yourself.
00:42:12You're completely authentic.
00:42:14But you need to get a bit of pitches, bro.
00:42:16I don't know what that pitch was.
00:42:17But you came around and I'm very proud to be putting my vote with you.
00:42:23Outwit, outplay, outlast and that you did.
00:42:26I can't wait to see you on the outside.
00:42:30Caleb, I'm voting for you tonight because you played a great game
00:42:34and you deserve it and I can't wait to go fishing with you.
00:42:38I can't wait to see you on the outside.
00:42:42I can't wait to see you on the outside.
00:42:43I can't wait to see you on the outside.
00:42:46I can't wait to see you on the outside.
00:42:46Well, Caleb took it out with six votes to three.
00:42:51Now, Keely, I'm going to put you on the spot here.
00:42:53Oh, no.
00:42:54You were in an alliance with Jackson, but you voted for Caleb.
00:42:58Oh.
00:43:00Why?
00:43:01I was always gunning for Caleb and I couldn't quite get him.
00:43:06So I had to write his name down at least once and that was it.
00:43:10Good time to have it written down.
00:43:13Simon, why did you vote for Jackson?
00:43:15Yeah, it was a no-brainer as someone who spent the duration of the game
00:43:20with Jackson and watching how green he came into the game,
00:43:23watching how down he was after losing Eliza.
00:43:26And then watching him grow and flourish as a player
00:43:29and fall in love with his game was just incredible.
00:43:35All right.
00:43:35Well, they went head to head from beginning to end.
00:43:38Caleb and Jackson's rivalry will go down
00:43:40as one of the greatest rivalries in Survivor history.
00:43:45Hell yeah.
00:43:48Bringing in Caleb from the Baron tribe.
00:43:51Hello, everybody.
00:43:53I just want to put out to everyone
00:43:55that we are playing around powerhouses.
00:43:59Let's get him in, man!
00:44:03Caleb, bro!
00:44:06Dave, if you're going to say my name, make sure you say it right.
00:44:09Right now, I'm Dirty Harry.
00:44:12Caleb is the serpent of this game,
00:44:15slithering through camp and a smile on his face.
00:44:18You wearing any Harry stuff tonight?
00:44:20Nah, bro.
00:44:21Nah?
00:44:22Nah, why are you so paranoid about that?
00:44:23Oh, it's just, you know,
00:44:25steal other Survivor players' currency to make yourself relevant.
00:44:28I thought you might bring it to tribal and do it again.
00:44:30I didn't even take you to be a sensitive type.
00:44:33I just think it's cringe that he comes to our tribal and says,
00:44:36we need to take out the returning players.
00:44:38And then he's playing dress-up as them the next day.
00:44:41He sounds like he's a very opinionated guy.
00:44:44Is that okay?
00:44:45I don't know what Jackson's beef with me is.
00:44:49This is a non-contact sport.
00:44:51Firing some shots at me.
00:44:53Every single one missed, mind you.
00:44:54I was...
00:44:59What have you got?
00:45:02A full breakfast!
00:45:08What's still on, Jaggo?
00:45:10Bro took my bacon and eggs.
00:45:12Bro doesn't know.
00:45:13That's the most expensive $500,000 big breakfast
00:45:16he's ever going to have to pay for me.
00:45:18But, like, differences aside, right,
00:45:22it actually would look sick-ass for me and you
00:45:25to have a big back-and-forth in, you know, tribal council.
00:45:31Loz.
00:45:38Wacko, Jacko.
00:45:40Maybe you shouldn't have picked a fight with Caleb Chaos.
00:45:43Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:45:45Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:45:47Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:45:49Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:45:50Jackson, you two traded a lot of words,
00:45:53but at some point, did the rivalry become more about,
00:45:56like, a mutual respect?
00:45:58Yeah. I mean, the respect you build for people out here
00:46:01is unlike you'd get anywhere else.
00:46:03And the respect I have for Caleb now is...
00:46:05Through the roof.
00:46:07Same goes.
00:46:08Yeah.
00:46:09Well, it was a showdown right to the very end,
00:46:12but to get there, we saw one of the biggest blind sides of the season.
00:46:17Loz, did you ever imagine that Caleb wouldn't take you to the end?
00:46:23Um, I was pretty solid going into that final endurance challenge.
00:46:26I felt pretty good, but something happens up on those pegs.
00:46:30Like, it's just, you have this kind of experience,
00:46:33which is really hard to describe.
00:46:34And over that course, I just started to wonder.
00:46:38Like, it started to creep in.
00:46:39Yeah.
00:46:40So, I definitely started building the doubt up on those pegs.
00:46:43Well, this season was defined by huge tribal councils,
00:46:48with some of the juiciest, most mind-blowing tribals
00:46:52Australian Survivor has ever seen.
00:46:57You guys were curious about tribal.
00:47:01You can absolutely vote for me tonight,
00:47:04but just know I'm not letting you start for it.
00:47:09I just have to say, well done.
00:47:12Harry.
00:47:17Each tribe will go head-to-head in a final challenge.
00:47:23You're not going to have to the trouble.
00:47:27Ooh, ooh!
00:47:32Yeah!
00:47:36Simon wins the fire challenge!
00:47:39Yeah!
00:47:39I was happy to throw a challenge,
00:47:41because I want Brooke packing her bags and boots to her.
00:47:45Let this be a poetic lesson in the dangers and consequences
00:47:50of throwing challenges.
00:47:52Tenth person voted out of Australian Survivor Redemption.
00:47:55Asha.
00:47:59Blindsided with an idol in my pocket.
00:48:01Oh, no!
00:48:11Faith.
00:48:15I did.
00:48:20You have to smoke yourself up.
00:48:22It's okay.
00:48:23You made the best man win.
00:48:25Think about Survivor,
00:48:27when you wear a jacket.
00:48:28It's got a lot of pockets.
00:48:30Ha!
00:48:33That's it.
00:48:38Is that you, Rich?
00:48:40Is that you?
00:48:42That is my name.
00:48:44Are you?
00:48:45Richard.
00:48:47I'm trying to have spoken.
00:48:51Oh!
00:48:53Oh, Brookie.
00:48:56I've also got...
00:48:57a nice...
00:48:59little package...
00:49:00myself.
00:49:01Two special surprises tonight.
00:49:02One more bar.
00:49:05A hyperboard.
00:49:09Blanche.
00:49:10Oh!
00:49:11Yeah!
00:49:19So many big moves and blindsides this season.
00:49:23Well, earlier in the season,
00:49:25Expedia and their travel rewards program OneKey
00:49:29gave you the chance to win $10,000 worth of OneKey cash.
00:49:33Now, all you had to do was vote for your favourite Tribal Council moment.
00:49:38Congratulations!
00:49:39Dee Cronshaw from New South Wales.
00:49:43Just won yourself $10,000 of OneKey cash.
00:49:47Thanks to Expedia.
00:49:50Well, we can't talk about Big Tribals without talking about Dirty Harry
00:49:55and the Flint Roulette.
00:49:59Harry, on your first season you were so unkillable
00:50:03you were known as the Cockroach.
00:50:04Why was it so much harder to shift the target this time around?
00:50:09Look, I don't know.
00:50:10I feel like I would be...
00:50:13we would be understating the players here
00:50:16if I didn't give them the credit they deserve.
00:50:18I mean, we've got players like Lottie here.
00:50:21We've got Asher here.
00:50:23So many of the players that I started with,
00:50:25it was like day two.
00:50:26They were already ready to play like returnees.
00:50:28So, I just have to give them credit that they came after me.
00:50:33I think it was a great play.
00:50:35They have my number.
00:50:37Well, this season really proved that when everyone comes to play,
00:50:41great players can go home at any moment.
00:50:45Paula.
00:50:46Hi, Daddy DJ.
00:50:48You landed on the beach, made great allies,
00:50:50started making moves and then you're blindsided.
00:50:52Is your head still spinning?
00:50:55It was painful to watch,
00:50:57but I think that kind of really started everything up.
00:51:02Lottie had our number and she clocked us pretty quickly,
00:51:05which was unsettling to say the least.
00:51:08And Simon, you dirty dog.
00:51:14Mark, your first season is known for its wild gameplay.
00:51:18Were you surprised by how crazy these tribals were
00:51:20or did it feel like coming home?
00:51:23I loved the season that I first played in
00:51:25and I learned so much from the other players that I played with.
00:51:28So, I was just taking lessons from all of the greats.
00:51:31They were the ghosts that were haunting me,
00:51:33but also they taught me all my lessons.
00:51:34So, I just went out there and I'm like,
00:51:37hey, if Ferris and Kirby and Eileen and Edith and Val,
00:51:41everyone, if they can do these great moves of tribal,
00:51:43why can't I?
00:51:44And so, from day one, I was not holding back at all.
00:51:47And you didn't.
00:51:54All right, we'll dive more into the biggest tribals later tonight.
00:51:58After the break, Mark will be haunted by his not-so-recent past
00:52:02as the people he's blindsided come back to haunt him.
00:52:05But first, our friends at MasterChef
00:52:08have a message for our sole survivor, Caleb.
00:52:12And congratulations from all of us here at MasterChef
00:52:16to you, Caleb, for taking out the title of sole survivor.
00:52:19That was an epic game.
00:52:20Survivor Redemption was such an incredible season to watch.
00:52:23I was on the edge of my seat.
00:52:25You definitely deserve to win,
00:52:27and especially after eating rice and beans for the last 45 days.
00:52:32Well done!
00:52:33Enjoy the spoils of your big win,
00:52:35and Australia will see you right here this Sunday at 7pm
00:52:38for the launch of a brand new season of MasterChef.
00:52:51Welcome back to the Survivor reunion.
00:52:55This season, 20 new players hit the starting mat alongside four returnees.
00:53:03Tez!
00:53:04Here he is.
00:53:05You're a massive fan of the game.
00:53:07What did you think when you landed on the mat
00:53:10and you saw that you could be playing against these returnees?
00:53:14I was shocked.
00:53:15I mean, Brookie Jowett, she's not a legend for no reason.
00:53:21It's surreal.
00:53:22I mean, watching the show for, since I was six years old,
00:53:25you freeze up.
00:53:26And unfortunately, that's what I did.
00:53:30Don't you, Ted!
00:53:34Well, the newbies started with the numbers,
00:53:41but that didn't stop the returnees
00:53:43from casting a long shadow over the game.
00:53:46None more than the man
00:53:47with a blazer full of blindsides.
00:53:50Mark.
00:53:53I am here for redemption and vengeance.
00:53:57The last time I played, my dead allies got cut
00:54:00because I wasn't cutthroat enough.
00:54:02Go over here.
00:54:03Go over here, boys.
00:54:04Oh, a lot of movement.
00:54:07So, I want...
00:54:08Mark is the PM of this tribe, the Prime Minister.
00:54:15He's a very good manipulator, this game.
00:54:17I've never seen anything like that.
00:54:19I have a really tight grip of the tribe, the game, and relationships.
00:54:25So, you know, Ruby Soho is number one.
00:54:28I really want you to know that I really want to go deep with you.
00:54:31Yeah.
00:54:32That's why when I tell you, I want to say...
00:54:41My reach has no limits.
00:54:44It's like these tentacles that just wrap around these newbies.
00:54:47We've already got a name for us.
00:54:48We're the boomerangs.
00:54:50Because we always come back.
00:54:52And now I am the biggest player on the beach.
00:54:56By a country mile.
00:54:57It's like...
00:54:59You come for me.
00:55:00You die.
00:55:02Screw you, Mark.
00:55:03Your mark on this game is a stain.
00:55:05And it must be removed.
00:55:12Take it.
00:55:13I'm the best man.
00:55:13The thing about Survivor, when you wear a jacket.
00:55:17It's got a lot of pockets.
00:55:20So...
00:55:21That's for me.
00:55:23Take it, Rich.
00:55:25You sure?
00:55:27Richard.
00:55:29Mark, he is the soul collector.
00:55:32He is collecting souls from the people he's voted off this Samoan beach.
00:55:38I've been eaten up by paranoia that Faith and Keeley are going to turn on me.
00:55:43Yeah, I could convince myself to vote you off.
00:55:46If you get to the end, yeah, you win over me.
00:55:48You'll still be friends no matter what.
00:55:53Faith.
00:56:01You should have probably lied and told me you'd take it to the end.
00:56:10Mark, in your first season, you were the diplomat.
00:56:14Your alliance was the invisible hand.
00:56:15This time, you kind of ruled with an iron fist.
00:56:19Was this the cutthroat game that you set out to play?
00:56:21Yeah, absolutely.
00:56:22There was no way I could play an invisible hand game this time around.
00:56:28I was out there with my girl Brooke and a bunch of really good newbies.
00:56:33And I decided to really be a really cutthroat player.
00:56:37And I wasn't afraid of making moves.
00:56:39I knew that my chances of winning the game were low.
00:56:42So just go out there, have fun.
00:56:44And I know that these other newbies, if they get another chance,
00:56:48they'll do the same thing.
00:56:49And I can't wait to see them do it.
00:56:50100%.
00:56:54Richard, you were on the receiving end of a brutal blindside for Mark.
00:56:59I mean, it looked like you didn't realise he'd betrayed you until the very last vote.
00:57:03Was that the case?
00:57:03Yeah, that vote didn't make sense to me.
00:57:07You know, I think Mark really kind of set himself up there for a challenging next tribal council.
00:57:13But what Mark didn't realise was that those ghosts that he was talking to at night,
00:57:18they were coming round to us and also telling us,
00:57:21vote Mark out.
00:57:24Well, Johnson, you clocked Mark pretty early as a master manipulator
00:57:28and you paid the price.
00:57:30Why do you think people allowed him to hold so much power in the tribe?
00:57:35Mark's eyes are fierce.
00:57:37And when he looks into your soul,
00:57:40it transcends the universe.
00:57:43It is scary when you look into the man's soul.
00:57:47Well, they might have been the sister wives of the head office,
00:57:50but this duo were a deadly force all of their own.
00:57:54It's Faith and Keely.
00:57:59Who runs the world?
00:58:01Us.
00:58:03Faith and I are basically the sister wives to Mark.
00:58:06He's very possessive.
00:58:08They're very, very close.
00:58:12We need to think about who's next.
00:58:14I mean, I'm thinking it is...
00:58:18I want his pants.
00:58:21I love being in control.
00:58:23I think this is great.
00:58:26Faith.
00:58:30Shocked.
00:58:32Shocked.
00:58:32Really, really shocked.
00:58:33Crazy.
00:58:35That was, like, totally mind-blowing.
00:58:38I'm not disappointed.
00:58:39I'm not angry.
00:58:41If anything, I'm thinking, how do I now one-up Mark?
00:58:49I identify as an idol holder.
00:58:55Keely, to me, is the most dangerous player in this game.
00:58:59And I'm seriously scared of that woman.
00:59:01She's no idol.
00:59:02Cause she's a killer, that girl.
00:59:04Killer Keely.
00:59:08I have a really good looking face idol.
00:59:11And I have a real idol.
00:59:15We're gonna go commit some survivor crimes.
00:59:22Oh, my God.
00:59:25What do you think?
00:59:31Keely, I don't think I've ever seen anyone turn the well into an idol workshop before.
00:59:36And now you have.
00:59:38I mean, the well is the perfect place for arts and crafts.
00:59:41Lots of things you can do down there.
00:59:43Now, when you first applied to play this game, did you think you'd be out there winning
00:59:46immunity challenges and committing survivor crimes?
00:59:49Um, the survivor crimes?
00:59:50Yes.
00:59:51But immunity challenges?
00:59:52Absolutely not.
00:59:53That was a real shock.
00:59:55Faith, you and Keely seemed like kindred spirits out there.
00:59:59Yeah.
00:59:59What do you think made you two such a strong duo?
01:00:02We loved the game.
01:00:03And I think that even though Keely didn't necessarily know survivor, she wanted to learn.
01:00:09We spoke a lot about stuff and then having Mark together in that three.
01:00:14Um, I don't know. We just had a lot of fun.
01:00:16Yeah, you really did.
01:00:17Faith, you were in such a strong position until you told Mark that you wouldn't let him get to the
01:00:23end.
01:00:23Do you regret that decision now?
01:00:25Um, look, I don't have regrets.
01:00:29I think that I played a very, I played an honest game.
01:00:32And I think that was also very much mine and Mark's relationship.
01:00:36I was honest with him about a lot of things.
01:00:38Um, and I'm really proud that my closest Alliance member took me out.
01:00:42That, um, with an epic blindside that was very on brand for me, even to the last moments I was
01:00:48telling people what to do.
01:00:49Um, which I loved.
01:00:51And so, yeah, I was really proud of my game.
01:00:53I don't think it's a good path having regrets in Survivor.
01:00:56I think you just, yeah, be proud of what you did and I am.
01:01:01Alright, coming up next, it's a game of lies, secrets and Brooke's big beautiful bluff.
01:01:07The Survivor reunion continues after the break.
01:01:16Brooke, you'll be bluffing.
01:01:20Hello, darling.
01:01:22Sally will be guessing for bounty.
01:01:25Brooke.
01:01:26Take a peek.
01:01:34Oh my gosh, your face.
01:01:36I, I think it could be something from home.
01:01:40Something from home, maybe.
01:01:42But, I don't know if I want it or not.
01:01:44Something from home, like a letter.
01:01:47There's just something in there that says, from home.
01:01:52Do you want that?
01:01:56I don't know if I should or not, but...
01:01:58Oh no, this is emotional, this one.
01:02:02You want it?
01:02:04I think I want, I think I need it.
01:02:06You need it?
01:02:07Sally, what's going through your head right now?
01:02:09Um, I can't help but to play this game with my heart.
01:02:15So, I'm just going to take the risk and hope that it's something from home.
01:02:19And if it's not, and you played me, then even better.
01:02:24Reveal.
01:02:27Oh my God!
01:02:28Okay.
01:02:29A slice of lime.
01:02:32I am so sorry.
01:02:37Brooke, what have you got?
01:02:40Oh, lemon red pie!
01:02:44That is how it's done!
01:02:49Welcome back to the Survivor Reunion.
01:02:52Brooke, that bluff was brutal!
01:02:55I loved it. I absolutely loved it.
01:02:57But when did you decide to do that?
01:02:59I had the idea before I got called to stand up.
01:03:02Um, but it was just even more perfect that it was Sel.
01:03:05Because she's the most kindest, beautiful soul.
01:03:07And it made me look so much more savage.
01:03:09Um, but it also won me the lemon pie that I was so desperate for.
01:03:13Because your girl was hungry.
01:03:15Have you seen me?
01:03:16I needed food.
01:03:19Cameron, you had so many opportunities to work with Brooke.
01:03:23Why didn't you?
01:03:24The thing about Brooke is I couldn't trust anything that she said.
01:03:27Like, every time she spoke to me, she started laughing.
01:03:30So, I didn't know if it was because I was saying something funny
01:03:32or if she was lying to me.
01:03:34You're a pretty funny guy.
01:03:35Smiling the whole time like a Cheshire cat.
01:03:38Alright, but what is he thinking?
01:03:41I'm sorry, Brooke.
01:03:42Come on!
01:03:42You did better than me.
01:03:43We could have done something fun.
01:03:45Yeah, we could have.
01:03:45Next season.
01:03:46Malaysia, I heard.
01:03:49Well, Cameron, you were great at having a chat out there.
01:03:52Is that something that gets you in trouble in life?
01:03:54Come on, man.
01:03:55You run your mouth, you run out of luck.
01:03:57And my mouth did a marathon.
01:03:59Yeah, I definitely got myself in some trouble.
01:04:02And I definitely have before.
01:04:04Well, Survivor is a game of deceit.
01:04:06But keeping your lies straight isn't always easy.
01:04:11Daniel!
01:04:15Thank you, Daniel!
01:04:29Daniel, you're a huge fan of the game.
01:04:33Yes, I am.
01:04:33You finally made it onto the beach.
01:04:35Dream come true.
01:04:37Absolutely.
01:04:37Did you ever imagine that you'd be voted out because you kept mixing up everyone's names?
01:04:43Sadly, it's on brand for me to be bad with names, so none of my friends were surprised.
01:04:47But, oh, it was like worst case scenario.
01:04:50I can't believe it.
01:04:52Well, Simon, you seem to be practising the art of many, many, many deals out there.
01:05:00What were you going to do if you had to admit that you couldn't draw two rocks?
01:05:05Oh!
01:05:06Yeah, good question.
01:05:07Look, I think the plan was to do something that I'm very fond of and very good at and
01:05:11put on the Simon dumb face.
01:05:13I don't have to try too hard there sometimes.
01:05:15But, yeah, I'm glad it never got to that point.
01:05:18Yeah, me too.
01:05:21Well, speaking of rocks, Australian Survivor has never had a tribal council that went to
01:05:27rocks.
01:05:28The final eight, you guys got very, very close.
01:05:33Brooke.
01:05:34Sorry, everyone.
01:05:35You broke the deadlock by voting for Simon.
01:05:37Oh, I needed to get the guy out.
01:05:39There was no way that I could get to the end without winning the challenges every single
01:05:43time.
01:05:44But I didn't know Keely was going to whip out all these secret immunity wins.
01:05:47So, how'd you get him?
01:05:49Well, rocks have been threatened again and again and again.
01:05:53But it's never happened.
01:05:55I think maybe it's time to ask the Survivor Gods if it's ever going to happen.
01:06:02By going to rocks.
01:06:05How good.
01:06:07Brooke, you want to come help me out?
01:06:14Alright, you know the drill.
01:06:16Take a rock.
01:06:16Don't look at it.
01:06:17Get this little bag open.
01:06:18Please prove that getting Simon out was the right decision.
01:06:21Take two.
01:06:22Take two.
01:06:23You're not allowed.
01:06:24Did you hear?
01:06:25Don't show it yet.
01:06:25Don't show it yet.
01:06:26Alright.
01:06:27If it's a black rock, we are never going to rocks in Australian Survivor ever again.
01:06:33If it's a white rock, we're going to go to rocks next season.
01:06:36Ooh.
01:06:38Let's see what the Survivor Gods would.
01:06:39If it's a red rock, I get Caleb's 500k.
01:06:42Deal.
01:06:43Deal.
01:06:43Alright.
01:06:44Ready.
01:06:44Alright, book.
01:06:45Reveal.
01:06:47Oh!
01:06:50That's a lot of pressure for the new car.
01:06:52Yeah.
01:06:53Hang on.
01:06:53Hang on.
01:06:54Hang on.
01:06:55I mean, it must be a hell of a season coming up.
01:06:59Alright, coming up, we talk ride or dies that crashed and burned, legendary moves.
01:07:04And a hat made of ten beavers.
01:07:08Survivor Reunion continues right after the break.
01:07:11Don't go anywhere.
01:07:21Welcome back to the Survivor Reunion.
01:07:25Here's the shelter whisperer.
01:07:27The man in the hat made of ten beavers.
01:07:29And the secret brother of the godfather himself, Matt Rogers.
01:07:33It's Don Roberts.
01:07:35Rogers.
01:07:36Rogers.
01:07:37Rogers.
01:07:39Don.
01:07:39What was the highlight of your game?
01:07:41Building the shelter or building your alliances?
01:07:43The highlight of my game, looking at it now, is I'm so proud that one of my original
01:07:48Cornship Cartel took the victory.
01:07:50So, from the get-go.
01:07:55Mark was great out there.
01:07:57I also have the unfortunate title of being Killer Keely's first ever blindside.
01:08:02And she has reminded me that, you know, she'll always remember her first.
01:08:06So, hats off to you, Keely.
01:08:11Don took charge of the shelter, but this pair took charge of their tribe.
01:08:16Let's take a look at the rise and fall of Asha and Lottie.
01:08:26Asha's running crazy, that girl, she's, her head is ten steps ahead.
01:08:29I absolutely want to take out Rook.
01:08:33She's a massive threat.
01:08:34This is also her third time playing.
01:08:35Yep.
01:08:35She's got to go.
01:08:37Each time you drop that ball, you have to start again.
01:08:42Oh!
01:08:44Sorry, sorry.
01:08:49I was happy to throw a challenge because I want Brooke packing her bags and boot scooting out of here.
01:08:54We need to go to tribal tonight.
01:08:56In fact, bring it on.
01:08:58Everyone's in position.
01:09:00And now...
01:09:03This is Blanche's idol.
01:09:06Well, technically it's mine right now.
01:09:09I just have it.
01:09:10I want to kiss you.
01:09:12I want to kiss you.
01:09:13I want to kiss you.
01:09:15Do you reckon it's an advantage or a disadvantage being a second-timer?
01:09:20I reckon they'll have a target like that.
01:09:21Yeah.
01:09:22Returning players are absolutely dangerous and we don't need both.
01:09:28Lottie.
01:09:29I think she's in charge of a lot of stuff.
01:09:33I want to blindside Lottie so badly.
01:09:36I want Paula tonight.
01:09:38I want Paula tonight.
01:09:40If we can cut Paula, Harry becomes very, very weak.
01:09:45Paula.
01:09:50Harry.
01:09:51You two.
01:09:53You guys are so good at this game.
01:09:58Lottie's very smart.
01:10:00She would essentially be the leader of the resistance, in one case.
01:10:04Yeah.
01:10:04A hundred percent.
01:10:05That's what I'm most worried about.
01:10:07I don't underestimate Lottie for a second.
01:10:11Lottie.
01:10:11The tribe has spoken.
01:10:13Yes, I have.
01:10:24Asha, it seemed like the bigger and bolder you played, the more fun you had, right?
01:10:29Yeah.
01:10:30I have zero patience for anything in life so I was like, let's go!
01:10:34As soon as I got there I was like, let's play, let's do it.
01:10:37I'm excited.
01:10:38This is a once in a lifetime opportunity so I just went for it.
01:10:42Lottie, what was it like working with the returnees, first Harry and then Simon?
01:10:48It was never actually in my game plan at all but when I laid eyes on that first challenge,
01:10:54I knew that I needed at least one of them to pull me through and hats off to Simon.
01:10:59His skull dragged me through every single one of those challenges and I would have been long gone before I
01:11:06went if it wasn't for these boys.
01:11:08So I am very grateful for that.
01:11:10You were fine mate, you were good. You were good.
01:11:12Roll the tapes and you were good.
01:11:17Harry, it seemed like you picked Lottie as a threat from day one.
01:11:20What did you see in her that others didn't?
01:11:24I think it was just her vision of the game.
01:11:27Just straight away she could see where everyone sat in the tribe.
01:11:31Not only that, she had the right allies with her to compliment her.
01:11:35Blanche.
01:11:37As soon as you linked up with Asha at Tribe Swap, you just lit up.
01:11:41Did it feel like you'd found your home in the game with her?
01:11:44Absolutely.
01:11:45We were two little peas in a pod.
01:11:47Our personalities were just a match made in heaven.
01:11:49I fell in love.
01:11:51Instant love.
01:11:53Love it.
01:11:55Asha.
01:11:55Yeah.
01:11:56Your torch has just been snuffed.
01:11:58Yep.
01:11:58You've realised, you know, you still have Blanche's idol.
01:12:02Yeah.
01:12:03In your bag.
01:12:04Yeah.
01:12:04What were you thinking?
01:12:06It was a genuine mistake, like I didn't just steal it.
01:12:09Otherwise I would have used it for myself.
01:12:13Well, speaking of idols, let's talk about the half idol.
01:12:16No, let's not.
01:12:19Sally, you managed to get your hands on both half idols
01:12:23and then you didn't play it for Keely.
01:12:25Why?
01:12:27Um, because Keely was the best player out there.
01:12:31Why would I save Keely?
01:12:33I'm so sorry, but why would I save the best player out there?
01:12:35I've spent every day with this woman on the beach.
01:12:37I've seen what she is capable of.
01:12:39Not only did she outplay everyone out there,
01:12:42she scared the shit out of me.
01:12:44I was like, she has to go.
01:12:46As a Survivor fan, I'm not going to let a whole idol
01:12:49or a half idol slip through my fingers.
01:12:51Especially top five, I was going down guns blazing
01:12:53and that's what I did.
01:12:55Well, that's the crazy thing about Survivor.
01:12:57You could be playing a great game,
01:12:59but make one mistake.
01:13:01Get unlucky or just, you know,
01:13:03keep someone up at night and then you're toast.
01:13:09Eliza, did you ever imagine your torch would be snuffed
01:13:12because you kept Lyndall awake at night?
01:13:16When you come into a game like Survivor,
01:13:18you run many, many scenarios through your head
01:13:21and that is my responsibility.
01:13:23I did not see that coming and I got got.
01:13:27Lyndall, do people underestimate the value of good sleep in this game?
01:13:30Yes, they do!
01:13:33Look, I was hallucinating by night three,
01:13:36but she also told me it was going to be Loz, myself or her
01:13:39and my Delulu brain was like,
01:13:42right, all votes to Eliza, I'm safe for another night.
01:13:45She was telling you the truth!
01:13:49Up next, it was the heist of the season
01:13:51and they pulled it off with the greatest forgery in Survivor history.
01:14:04I'm not in control of this tribe.
01:14:06And I hate it!
01:14:08Oh, my God.
01:14:09I need to be subservient.
01:14:10Us three?
01:14:12I like this.
01:14:13I like this a lot.
01:14:14I want this to be the triangle offence.
01:14:1796 bulls.
01:14:18Yes.
01:14:18Yeah, the triangle offence.
01:14:20When we've got him on the ropes like this,
01:14:22he can't...
01:14:24He can't dodge in the corner like Muhammad Ali can.
01:14:28He has to be hit.
01:14:30And the best part about my plan...
01:14:32Nobody can stop me.
01:14:36Mark, he has to go.
01:14:39We have to finish off what we started.
01:14:40I like that.
01:14:40I love that.
01:14:43Resistance!
01:14:46First member of our jury, Mark.
01:14:58Look, what's your biggest blind spot?
01:15:06I don't know.
01:15:06It's probably right in front of your face.
01:15:10Yeah, it probably is him.
01:15:11No.
01:15:12Yeah.
01:15:15The 16th person voted out of Australian Survivor Redemption.
01:15:19And the third member of our jury...
01:15:22Ben.
01:15:23What?
01:15:26It's Jackson!
01:15:30Oh!
01:15:40Ben.
01:15:41You've built a resistance,
01:15:42you've finally got the upper hand,
01:15:44and then Jackson blindsides you.
01:15:46How did it feel to be booted by your best mate?
01:15:49Okay, so here's the thing, Dave.
01:15:50We're in the jungle.
01:15:51Davo gets a stain in his pants, right?
01:15:53Mark was there at the start.
01:15:55The stain was in the pants.
01:15:56I'm trying to wash it.
01:15:57I can't get it out.
01:15:58Okay.
01:15:58Right?
01:15:59I take it to my mum.
01:16:00She washes it.
01:16:00She can't get it out.
01:16:01Alright?
01:16:02And...
01:16:03Was Jackson your mum in that analogy?
01:16:11Me and Jackson, my boy,
01:16:13he is my...
01:16:14He's my twin flame, this bloke.
01:16:15So we're out there running the tribe.
01:16:17We didn't even communicate what we were talking about.
01:16:19We were just out there bouncing ideas off each other
01:16:20when we were talking to people.
01:16:21We didn't even...
01:16:22See?
01:16:23See what he did there?
01:16:23And I was like...
01:16:24My game was like,
01:16:25I'm gonna stand by you, my boy.
01:16:26I'm taking you to the end.
01:16:28He's really laying it on thick, Jackson.
01:16:29I mean...
01:16:31How did it feel, the vote you made out?
01:16:32It was the worst thing I've ever done, man.
01:16:34It sucked.
01:16:36Well, I was gonna say,
01:16:37now that it's all said and done,
01:16:38would you do it again?
01:16:39Would I blind time him again?
01:16:40Yeah.
01:16:43Yeah, I'd do it again.
01:16:46Well, it was a survivor heist for the ages.
01:16:50Brooke and Keely had one real idol, one fake idol
01:16:53and two people to get through tribal council.
01:16:55Let's take a look.
01:17:04Sally, are you concerned that the returnees
01:17:06might have found a little help out there?
01:17:07Yep.
01:17:10Oh, Brookey.
01:17:16Wow.
01:17:18Cameron, I feel like your face dropped when that came out.
01:17:22I want that hate, but it's so exciting.
01:17:24This is what I'm here for.
01:17:28I think it's fake.
01:17:30We got it.
01:17:32I've also got a nice little package myself.
01:17:39Two special surprises tonight.
01:17:40One more.
01:17:41This is nuts.
01:17:42Crazy.
01:17:43This is nuts.
01:17:44Brooke's one's got you.
01:17:46I'll have to play on someone else.
01:17:53Who are you playing this for?
01:17:55I'll play it for Brooke.
01:17:57Any votes cast for Brooke will not count.
01:18:01Brooke.
01:18:02Brooke.
01:18:03Brooke.
01:18:04Does not count.
01:18:10Blanche.
01:18:14Ben.
01:18:1915th person voted out of Australian Survivor Redemption.
01:18:24Blanche.
01:18:27Jesus.
01:18:34I've sat through a lot of tribal councils, and I've got to tell you, that took nerves of steel.
01:18:40Jackson, you were the first one to clock that that idol might have been a fake.
01:18:45What cleared you in?
01:18:46That she was hiding it.
01:18:48Bro, Brooke's a, like, where she wants to be, she's a loud player.
01:18:51If it was real, she'd be wearing around that neck and showing it in all our faces.
01:18:54She hid it in her jacket.
01:18:56Dodgy hairs.
01:18:58Dodgy hairs.
01:18:59Simon, there's apparently two idols, a lot of confusion, but you still flipped on your
01:19:04alliance and voted for Brooke.
01:19:06Why?
01:19:07Yeah, that was, um, it was a no-brainer for me because, like, look, I knew about the fake idol,
01:19:12I knew about the real idol, and I had to play along with that one there.
01:19:16But, and I had to think about myself waking up the next day, and I was like, I paled to
01:19:21them, I hope these girls can get through, and I need something to get me through on the next one.
01:19:27And I needed to show my allegiance to Ben and Jackson, and sure enough, like, throwing that vote on Brooke,
01:19:33you know, obviously it wasn't great for my relationship with Brooke at that time, but it saved us on the
01:19:37next one and opened the door for the, uh, for Jackson to come and flip over.
01:19:41So, like, that didn't happen without throwing that vote on Brooke.
01:19:45Well, Keeley, everyone's voted.
01:19:48You play your real idol for Brooke, but if you're wrong, you'd go home.
01:19:52How sure were you that you'd made the right call?
01:19:55Um, I was, look, I was pretty confident that I had made the right call.
01:20:01I got to know these guys pretty well and their voting patterns, and they were so passionate about getting out
01:20:07their attorneys.
01:20:07They wanted to write their name down and put it in the urn, so I was, I was worried.
01:20:13I thought maybe one or two Keeley votes in that urn, and it paid off.
01:20:18Yeah, it really did.
01:20:19Yeah, big risk, big reward.
01:20:22Thanks, Keele.
01:20:23Well, you're welcome.
01:20:25Alright, after the break, the game is about to get very personal, right here on the Survivor Reunion.
01:20:31Don't go anywhere.
01:20:41For the first time, all 24 of you are entering the game with a personal mission.
01:20:47Welcome to Australian Survivor Redemption.
01:20:58I thought my redemption in this game was going to be, like, playing an idol correctly.
01:21:02Mmm.
01:21:02I just realised my redemption was playing this game well.
01:21:05100 days for Simon, 100 days for Simon, 100 days for Simon.
01:21:10This Simon 3.0 is the player I wish that Simon 1.0 and 2.0 could have been.
01:21:17Asha.
01:21:18Told you I didn't want to throw that challenge.
01:21:20Aww.
01:21:21I've proven myself that I actually can play this game and can pull a big move without stepping
01:21:29on a rake and smacking myself in the face.
01:21:31How good.
01:21:32Don't be me.
01:21:33I'm not ready.
01:21:34Not me.
01:21:34Jackson George.
01:21:37Wow.
01:21:38So proud of you.
01:21:40To see her tell me that she's proud of the things that I've done.
01:21:45You are a very inspirational person.
01:21:51Something that I've wanted my entire life.
01:21:58Why are you such a big target?
01:22:00You know who bands people together?
01:22:02Yeah.
01:22:02Is a bit of a leader.
01:22:05To be honest, I put this brave face on and pretend I'm this big, strong, funny personality
01:22:12but underneath, I'm my biggest critic.
01:22:17But right now, this is the proudest I've ever been to myself.
01:22:22Brooke!
01:22:23Brooke!
01:22:23That's it.
01:22:24Brooke wins individual immunity!
01:22:26I was wanting to prove to myself that I'm still the same 23-year-old me and I'm still
01:22:34just as strong and resilient and crazy.
01:22:37I'm just a mum now.
01:22:38And I definitely proved that to myself.
01:22:42So, I do feel redeemed.
01:22:54Welcome back to the Survivor Reunion.
01:22:57This season was all about redemption.
01:23:00That meant that everyone walked onto the beach with something very personal driving their game.
01:23:07Caleb, you stood on that mat on day one and said you were playing for young Caleb.
01:23:12What do you think your journey in this game could teach young Caleb about himself now?
01:23:17Look, trust myself more.
01:23:19You know what I mean?
01:23:20Because a lot of the time, it feels like my heart and my mind are in battle.
01:23:24And I feel like that's when I make a lot of mistakes.
01:23:27And I should trust myself more, trust others more.
01:23:31Because when I start doing it, I start winning.
01:23:39Loz, you came into the game wanting to reclaim your strength and make your girls proud.
01:23:44How do you think Survivor's changed you?
01:23:47I definitely went out to prove something and to show my kids and my family how tough I am
01:23:52and how resilient I am, how strong I am.
01:23:54And through the game, I really got to really experience, you know, being proud of myself.
01:24:00So, yeah.
01:24:10Simon, three seasons, three different Simons.
01:24:20Every time you've played, you've brought your whole heart to this game.
01:24:24What is it about Survivor that is so special?
01:24:28Yeah, I...
01:24:36Sorry, hang on.
01:24:40Um...
01:24:42As a fan of Australian Survivor, watching these amazing players in the first generation from Season 1 through to All
01:24:48Stars to then, you know, put on a buff for the first time and give it a crack.
01:24:54I was, I felt like I was just the fan who got their shot and I was not going to
01:24:59leave any stone unturned.
01:25:01And I was going to make the most of every single moment, every single breath to do everyone proud and
01:25:07do myself proud.
01:25:08And yeah, I just, I've been overwhelmed by what this has given me and it's, it's been one hell of
01:25:15a journey.
01:25:15Yeah, well, you've certainly done the play around. Thanks, Ben.
