00:00:04Previously, we've never had a showdown quite like this, the fight for the final immunity
00:00:15pushed Jackson to the breaking point.
00:00:18Will you give it to me or not?
00:00:20I'll take you.
00:00:20I'll give 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.
00:00:27Standing strong in the air.
00:00:30I need to show strength.
00:00:31Just think of wearing that necklace.
00:00:33Jackson, be surprised that they haven't made a deal 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 is already sitting on the bench.
00:00:46We're so proud of you, man.
00:00:48We love you so much.
00:00:49Caleb wins immunity.
00:00:52In an earth-shattering penultimate tribal, Loz.
00:00:57Caleb chose to risk it all.
00:01:01To a left.
00:01:03Who will become sole survivor?
00:01:25Day 45.
00:01:28Day 45.
00:01:36Oh, no way!
00:01:40Is that croissant?
00:01:41Bro.
00:01:43Oh, it's so fitting.
00:01:46Put it there, man.
00:01:47It's so fitting that we get to share this breakfast together.
00:01:50I know, eh?
00:01:52A big egg and bacon.
00:01:56Honestly, last night's tribal council.
00:01:59Yum.
00:02:01It was such a hard decision.
00:02:05I was 100% on taking Loz to the very end.
00:02:09But when I was standing on those poles,
00:02:11I lost my faith and my trust in Loz.
00:02:16We had said, like, look, if Jackson goes out,
00:02:18then we'll just get off.
00:02:20But neither of us were getting off.
00:02:22And it was like, well, if she's not getting off,
00:02:25that's pretty loud.
00:02:27Yeah, man.
00:02:27I realised she's going to take Jackson here.
00:02:30And it was that moment I realised
00:02:32I cannot afford to get off these poles no matter what.
00:02:36So then I had to choose
00:02:39who do I want to pitch my redemption story next to?
00:02:43The most beautiful, spirited kids ever.
00:02:46And it just goes to show that she is putting in the best work for them.
00:02:51You 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 going to be easy to win tonight.
00:03:01Tonight's going to be a showdown of the ages, bro.
00:03:06It comes down to who is going to be able to sell their story better.
00:03:12Me 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.
00:03:38I refuse to underestimate people in this game.
00:03:41Hey, Jax.
00:03:42How'd 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 going to 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 dropped.
00:04:41We'll now bring in the members of our jury.
00:04:44Mark.
00:04:46Blanche.
00:04:47Ben.
00:04:49Simon.
00:04:50Cameron.
00:04:52Brooke.
00:04:53Julie.
00:04:55Sally.
00:04:56And Loz.
00:04:58Loz.
00:04:58Yeah!
00:04:59The last private council.
00:05:08She's not happy with you.
00:05:30So, here we are, day 45.
00:05:36Two rivals in a showdown for ultimate redemption.
00:05:45You two have gone as far as you can go in this game.
00:05:48Tonight, 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 that goes
00:06:05along with it.
00:06:08So, Caleb, would you like to kick us off?
00:06:11Okay.
00:06:13I'd love to.
00:06:15Hello everyone.
00:06:18What an honour it's been to be able to work with the most amazing special people and play this crazy
00:06:28game.
00:06:29It's been a wild ride.
00:06:31I want to kind of start on my redemption.
00:06:34I feel like my whole life, guys, I have been a bit of an underdog.
00:06:40I have been underestimated.
00:06:43And, look, I feel like I was underestimated in this game.
00:06:48Caleb Chaos was almost a bit of a front.
00:06:52But I've played a very tactical game and it's literally led me here to be final two.
00:06:59I felt like everybody knew what my mission was.
00:07:04It was the year of the underdogs.
00:07:07I pitched that us underdogs, we are going to really struggle against the best players.
00:07:13So why don't we all unite and get out the returnees.
00:07:17But then I made an alliance with Mark.
00:07:22I played one of the best double agent games I've ever seen.
00:07:27And I put a big blindside on one of the hugest players of the game.
00:07:34Then after that, I managed to stay in the right majority alliance,
00:07:39create the right relationships with the right people the whole time to make the final four.
00:07:44And then me and Loz, we teamed up, we put two votes on Sally.
00:07:50Sally and Jacko put two votes on me, we went to fire.
00:07:54And ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, I made the quickest fire in a challenge in Australian Survivor History.
00:08:03Then we went to an individual immunity challenge and I finally won my first one.
00:08:09I lasted four hours and ten minutes on those pegs, which then led to me one of the hardest decisions.
00:08:17Why the hell did I take Jacko and not Loz?
00:08:24As I was up there, I realised something.
00:08:28She's taking Jackson.
00:08:30Otherwise, we could just get off.
00:08:31And I was like, I've got to take Jackson if I want to win.
00:08:36So, I had to get her out.
00:08:38Sorry, Loz.
00:08:43I'm so close to being redeemed.
00:08:46It's just an amazing feeling.
00:08:48And if I win today, then that's it.
00:08:51Then I have been truly redeemed in my big redemption arc.
00:08:57I'm not a wannabe.
00:08:59I am!
00:09:00Soul survivor!
00:09:13Jackson, what would you like to say to the jury?
00:09:19Hi, guys.
00:09:20I am so grateful to you all for the game that we've played together.
00:09:25With redemption on the line, we all came in here for something to prove something that bonded us.
00:09:32Day one started out on the bottom.
00:09:36I had no game.
00:09:38But I earned my right to keep playing in this game.
00:09:43Dirty Harry.
00:09:45I took out a nearly 100-day player with just 10 days in this game and a sad-looking fleet.
00:09:52I got very lucky in tribe swap, but I didn't let the luck just go to waste.
00:09:57I had Ben and Brooke, who needed a new alliance.
00:10:02And we gathered all of the troops.
00:10:04We looked around at a target, and who'd we land on?
00:10:08The big, bad Asha.
00:10:09And then we got her.
00:10:11The Beauty and the Beast.
00:10:12Ride it home.
00:10:15Come merge.
00:10:16This is where I made, I think, my biggest move in the game and the hardest move in the game.
00:10:24Then I'm...
00:10:25Bro, 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.
00:10:43And then, lo and behold, come end game.
00:10:45I have no allies left in this game.
00:10:47The only way through is to win a necklace.
00:10:50And you know what I did?
00:10:51I got myself a two-piece feet.
00:10:53I clutch up and I fill a hole in my resume in the physical challenge department.
00:11:00And battled my way through to the final three.
00:11:06I fought so hard tooth and nail every day.
00:11:09I got knocked down and I got back up again smarter.
00:11:13It wasn't survival, it was evolution.
00:11:16I proved that I was the biggest beast in the Beauty and the Beast.
00:11:19I was the only one in Club Kaput that didn't go kaput.
00:11:22And I am gonna be the only underdog left barking on the mountain.
00:11:27I'm sure as heck the only underdog that would run side by side with the big dogs.
00:11:32And I earned your respect.
00:11:35I learned from you.
00:11:37I played with you.
00:11:38And now I sit here and I outlasted you.
00:11:52Okay, jury.
00:11:54You'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.
00:12:22You've heard two very compelling pitches from Caleb and Jackson.
00:12:28Now, finally, it's your turn to ask the questions.
00:12:32Find out what you need from them.
00:12:34To make your half a million dollar decision.
00:12:44Alright, well, Keely.
00:12:45Yes.
00:12:46You got a question.
00:12:47I do.
00:12:49When I came to play survivor, I had a bit of a strategy, which was to commit as many survivor
00:12:58crimes as I could.
00:13:00No way.
00:13:01Hey.
00:13:02And I leave with quite a rap sheet.
00:13:05And so I want to hear from you guys about whether your game is similar to someone with a rap
00:13:14sheet of petty crimes or is it major crimes?
00:13:19Look, I got a bit of a rap sheet going.
00:13:22Moments like winning a fire challenge.
00:13:24Moments like staying on awful pegs for four and a half hours or getting out of redemption beach.
00:13:30I got a few there that I kind of covered in my opening pitch.
00:13:38Think of crimes like risk, okay?
00:13:41So is there any crime or risk that you wish that you did make and you didn't?
00:13:49I think my biggest risk I didn't take was putting more faith into Loz.
00:13:55I think throughout the game, I had opportunities to really go forward with her in this game.
00:14:01And trusting her survivor instincts.
00:14:04Because she, man, she played a great, great game.
00:14:14Brooke.
00:14:16Jacko.
00:14:18I think out of everyone here, you are the one person that didn't come out laser focused on gunning for
00:14:26returnees.
00:14:27The 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.
00:14:45This man right here was not afraid to talk to me on night one.
00:14:49But he also wanted you gone from the first travels.
00:14:52I needed to learn.
00:14:54I needed to learn from the best.
00:14:56And what a better way than to find the best players.
00:15:00And like, the thing is, Mark, you know, I, I, that was really hard for me in the end to
00:15:05make that flip.
00:15:09I'll jump in.
00:15:10I'll jump in.
00:15:10So, can you claim a move if you weren't the one driving it?
00:15:18Like, I feel like, that Mark vote, I'm the one that made the decision that said, Mark's going.
00:15:25Well, it was either you or Mark.
00:15:28And I had to make that decision.
00:15:30And I go, the numbers are there.
00:15:34There's a plan there.
00:15:36I want to make it happen tonight and I made it happen.
00:15:41I've got a question for you both.
00:15:43How much time do you both believe that you were driving your game and having influence over your game versus
00:15:49being a passenger?
00:15:51You're allowed to be a passenger in this game as long as you kind of earned the right to let
00:15:55someone else drive.
00:15:58I played a big, flashy game.
00:16:01I spoke openly at tribal council.
00:16:04I was pretty brash.
00:16:08But I could back it up because I hid myself in very tight shields.
00:16:13And when I made these big moves, like eliminating Ben and placing myself under the care of Keeley, Brook and
00:16:18Simon,
00:16:19I tucked myself away in there.
00:16:21Did I have to continue to drive boats hard every single day?
00:16:25No, that's a good way to put a target on your back.
00:16:29My problem in this game is when people play passenger for too long and hide in the numbers.
00:16:38Yeah, look, I, um, with the underdogs that I had on my tribe, I was also pitching and we were
00:16:46literally waiting for opportunities to strike.
00:16:49If you weren't such a passenger, can you give an example on a time that you were driving and influencing
00:16:55a decision?
00:16:56When were you in the driver's seat?
00:17:00Every single time working with the returnees, at the same time having my foot in the other door with underdogs,
00:17:09you know what I mean?
00:17:10Waiting and watching for enough numbers there and being able to play this big, amazing double game.
00:17:19I think that, look, your double agent play and you're flying under the radar and an espionage and all that
00:17:27is amazing.
00:17:28But if you're claiming that, then I'm going to sit here and claim it too.
00:17:32Because in my head, the concept of double agent is simply playing survivor.
00:17:36Playing this game is lying and telling people that you're going with this plan, but actually it's going to be
00:17:41this one.
00:17:42Can I just jump in? Caleb, can you explain to the jury how much you manipulated me?
00:17:48You have to explain this.
00:17:50You did. You absolutely did. From day one until I got voted off.
00:17:54And you could have voted Ben or you could have voted me and you chose to vote me.
00:17:59I literally played a game where I could totally have Mark as my alliance.
00:18:06And I would get every single little bit of information from Mark and do the same thing to the other
00:18:12group.
00:18:14At one time, I'm telling Mark all these crazy names from the underdogs, which none of them were real.
00:18:20And at the same time, I'm working with Mark saying, oh yeah, I'm going to do this big Ben vote.
00:18:26I saw you do the double agent thing with Mark.
00:18:30And I saw Mark believe you until the very last second.
00:18:34The girls thought that Mark needed a T-shirt that said, I love Caleb.
00:18:37Because everyone was trying to tell Mark, do not trust Caleb.
00:18:42And yet he still did.
00:18:50Mark, you got a question?
00:18:53Yeah.
00:18:56Jackson, you're a great presenter.
00:18:58You're a great speaker and it's very appealing.
00:19:01And particularly at a final tribal council.
00:19:04But what is bothering me is that you're very focused on theatrics and the big players.
00:19:13However, I think that sometimes 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 and that may affect your
00:19:37chances of winning this game?
00:20:02Jackson, are you at all concerned that you have ignored some people on this jury?
00:20:09And that may affect your chances of winning this game?
00:20:13One thousand percent.
00:20:14I think it's been my biggest pitfall in my game.
00:20:17I feel, on a personal level, I have let relationships go by the wayside.
00:20:23And it is a massive regret of winning this game.
00:20:26It is a part of the game that I'm going to put two hands up and say, if I ignored
00:20:30you throughout the last 45 days, it 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 and I watched you have personal chats with lots of
00:20:53people around me.
00:20:54And I really made an effort to talk to you, to get to know you.
00:20:58I could tell you 10 things about you.
00:21:00Could you tell me something personal about me that 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.
00:21:12I...
00:21:13Sorry.
00:21:16I'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 about the relationship that I presented to you, then that is your
00:21:29truth.
00:21:30And as I said, only something that I can say sorry for.
00:21:38Caleb, the flip side to my question to Jackson, how did you intentionally position yourself differently to people in the
00:21:47tribe 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 that 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, then maybe we can start something here.
00:22:14I also feel like I've played a much different game.
00:22:18Like, I never punched down on people.
00:22:21I never called people out.
00:22:23I'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, so let's keep it going.
00:22:48Jackson!
00:22:51At times I've felt that you've had these big showman moves, and I haven't really seen Jackson.
00:23:01And it wasn't really until we'd been on those pegs for, like, three hours, I 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, and especially not very easily.
00:23:26I feel like I have a wall up all the time, and in wrestling that helps because you can just
00:23:33be your character.
00:23:35And it has been a detriment, not just my game, but my whole life.
00:23:40Um, but being out here with you all, and 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 and made me be
00:23:58vulnerable and changed my spirit are professional wrestling and now Survivor.
00:24:06I dropped out of university to chase my dreams of being a professional wrestler, and I think it broke my
00:24:14parents' heart.
00:24:15I came out here day one just looking for redemption, looking to prove to my mum that everything that I
00:24:23did wasn't selfish, I was doing it for her.
00:24:26And guys, I, she's here, she's never left the country before, she's never left Australia before, and she came onto
00:24:33the 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, it's worth the pegs, it's worth the blindsides, it's worth everything out here.
00:25:01Um, and she deserves the world, and I want to give that to her.
00:25:11Uh, Caleb, we kind of found each other, and I feel like we created a great bond together, and we
00:25:21really became ride and dies for each other.
00:25:27But, something shifted, something changed, something 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, so I
00:25:42can understand why I'm the one sitting here, and Jackson's sitting there.
00:25:56This is the hardest part of my game.
00:26:01Every 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.
00:26:17And then I thought, hang on a sec.
00:26:18She's also a single mum of two teenage girls who really needs this.
00:26:23Ah!
00:26:24Why are they going to give it to the weirdo snake guy?
00:26:26Ah!
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?
00:26:40You can claim it, claim it, Katia.
00:26:44I want you to claim this bad-ass move.
00:26:48It'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, and I want to hear
00:26:59how 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.
00:27:06Yeah.
00:27:07It 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 the final two,
00:27:20to 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.
00:27:30I'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.
00:27:51When it comes to redemption, as a kid I knew the man I wanted to be.
00:27:57I never had the opportunity.
00:28:00But now, I know that I can pretty much do anything after doing something like this, and my redemption story
00:28:09has 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, and that's, that's, you know, that's
00:28:23worth a million dollars to me.
00:28:29Alright jury, you 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.
00:28:41So, the last time.
00:28:45It's time to vote.
00:29:13Mark.
00:29:15Mark.
00:29:21You're up.
00:29:34Mate, great game. So proud to vote for you. Win or lose. It was a pleasure playing with
00:29:40you. Hope you win.
00:30:07Jackson, not only did you find your feet in this game, you found yourself in this game.
00:30:14And I think that is the ultimate redemption.
00:30:27Keeley, get up.
00:30:55I'll count the votes.
00:31:18Keeley, get up.
00:31:21Well, 24 people entered this game looking for redemption. I think it's safe to say that
00:31:29you all well and truly have found it. It's been an incredible season with an electric
00:31:36finish. Now, Caleb and Jackson, the only thing left to do is read the vote.
00:31:47We're going to do that back in Australia. I'll see you then.
00:31:59I'll see you then.
00:32:01Oh, my God!
00:32:02Good job, right on.
00:32:04Good job, right on.
00:32:06Wonderful!
00:32:07Wonderful!
00:32:07Cinder!
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're only coming in two modes.
00:34:12How are you feeling, chaotic 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.
00:34:20Don'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.
00:34:30How are we tonight?
00:34:35It's the reunion.
00:34:36It's the finale.
00:34:37I said, how are we tonight?
00:34:49All right.
00:34:51These votes are for the winner.
00:34:55Okay, love.
00:34:56For the final time, I'll read the votes.
00:35:07First vote.
00:35:14Jackson.
00:35:21Jackson.
00:35:24Two, two, two, two, two.
00:35:33Caleb.
00:35:36That's one vote, Caleb.
00:35:38Two votes, Jackson.
00:35:44Caleb.
00:35:46We're tied.
00:35:47That's two votes, Caleb.
00:35:49Two votes, Jackson.
00:35:54That's two votes, Jackson.
00:35:57That's three votes, Caleb.
00:35:59Two votes, Jackson.
00:36:04Jackson.
00:36:07We're tied again.
00:36:09That's three votes, Caleb.
00:36:11Three votes, Jackson.
00:36:13Jackson.
00:36:22Caleb.
00:36:25That's four votes, Caleb.
00:36:27Three votes, Jackson.
00:36:38The winner of Australian Survival Redemption.
00:36:43Caleb.
00:36:43Yeah!
00:37:04I did it! I did it! I did it!
00:37:08The winner of Australian Survivor Redemption and half a million dollars, Caleb!
00:37:22We've crowned a crazy winner in a season full of crazy gameplay.
00:37:28This 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, taking the world firstly in a brand new location, Malaysia!
00:37:49Well, Survivor reunion is just up the break and nothing is off the table.
00:37:54The blast! The blast! The betrayal! The biggest moves of the season.
00:38:00They're ready to spill it all right after this.
00:38:19Welcome 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.
00:38:35The gameplay was cutthroat and completely unpredictable.
00:38:39We had returnees, we had revolutions, bluffs, blindsides, breakouts, a 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 Australian 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 have never been there without you all!
00:39:14You guys are the stars!
00:39:18Caleb, you said you've never been a winner. How does it feel?
00:39:21Oh mate, I can't process it right now, you know what I mean?
00:39:24I'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, you 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 were 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?
00:39:56It actually is, man. Like, 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.
00:40:33Well, mate, you played a hell of a game.
00:40:35You 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 duck!
00:40:47Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:40:48New one, bro. Chill out, chill out.
00:40:50Well, 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.
00:40:59The last time.
00:41:01It's time to vote.
00:41:07Mark, you're up.
00:41:08Oh, my.
00:41:09Oh, my.
00:41:15Mate, great game.
00:41:17So proud to vote for you.
00:41:18Oh, no, I'm going to stand.
00:41:18Win or lose, it's a pleasure playing with you.
00:41:21I hope you win.
00:41:22Jackson, not 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 then he lets Devo get married.
00:41:50He played an incredible strategic and social game
00:41:53and I think he'd got this in the bag.
00:41:57Crazy.
00:42:00Oh, my Prince of Cookwood, you have made it
00:42:04and I am so proud.
00:42:05You played a phenomenal game
00:42:09and you stayed true to yourself.
00:42:12You're completely authentic
00:42:14but you need to get a bit of a pitch, bro.
00:42:16I don't know what that pitch was.
00:42:17But you came around and I'm very proud
00:42:20to 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.
00:42:31Caleb, I'm voting for you tonight
00:42:33because you played a great game
00:42:35and you deserve it
00:42:36and I can't wait to go fishing with you.
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.
00:42:53You were in an alliance with Jackson
00:42:56but you voted for Caleb.
00:43:00Why?
00:43:02I was always gunning for Caleb
00:43:04and I couldn't quite get him
00:43:06so I had to write his name down at least once
00:43:08and 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
00:43:18as someone who spent their duration of the game with Jackson
00:43:21and 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
00:43:31was just incredible.
00:43:35All right, well, they went head-to-head
00:43:37from beginning to end.
00:43:38Caleb and Jackson's rivalry will go down
00:43:41as one of the greatest rivalries in Survivor history.
00:43:45Hell yeah!
00:43:47And bringing in Caleb from the Baron tribe.
00:43:51Hello, everybody!
00:43:54I 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!
00:44:05He...
00:44:05Oh!
00:44:06Dave, if you're going to say my name,
00:44:08make 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
00:44:16and a smile on his face.
00:44:19You 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
00:44:27to make yourself relevant.
00:44:28I thought you might bring it to tribal
00:44:29and do it again.
00:44:30I didn't even take you to be a sensitive type.
00:44:33I just think it's cringe
00:44:34that 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
00:44:40the next day.
00:44:41He sounds like he's a very opinionated guy.
00:44:44That's okay.
00:44:45I don't know what Jackson's beef with me is.
00:44:49This is a non-contact sport.
00:44:51Are you firing some shots at me?
00:44:52Every single one I missed, mind you.
00:44:55I was...
00:45:00What have you got?
00:45:03A full breakfast.
00:45:08The board's still on, Dagger.
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 take on his life.
00:45:18Put, like, differences aside, right?
00:45:22It actually would look sick as 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.
00:45:50Jackson, you two traded a lot of words,
00:45:53but at some point did the rivalry become more about, like,
00:45:56a mutual respect.
00:45:58Yeah.
00:45:58I 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.
00:46:08Same goes.
00:46:10Well, it was a showdown right to the very end.
00:46:13But to get there,
00:46:13we saw one of the biggest blindsides of the season.
00:46:18Loz, did you ever imagine that Caleb
00:46:20wouldn't take you to the end?
00:46:23I was pretty solid going into that final endurance challenge.
00:46:26I felt pretty good.
00:46:28But something happens up on those pigs.
00:46:30Like, it's just...
00:46:31You have this kind of experience,
00:46:33which is really hard to describe.
00:46:34And over that course,
00:46:36I just started to wonder.
00:46:38Like, it started to creep in.
00:46:40Yeah.
00:46:40So I definitely started building the doubt up on those pigs.
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.
00:46:58You 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.
00:47:15Hi.
00:47:18Each tribe will go head-to-head
00:47:20in a five-minute challenge.
00:47:23Fire.
00:47:23You're going up to the trouble.
00:47:27Oh, no.
00:47:36Time that wins the fire challenge.
00:47:39I was happy to throw a challenge
00:47:41because I want Brooke packing her bags
00:47:43and boots to the ground.
00:47:46Let this be a poetic lesson
00:47:48in the dangers and consequences
00:47:50of throwing challenges.
00:47:52Tenth person voted out
00:47:53of Australian Survivor Redemption.
00:47:55Asha.
00:47:59Flying started with an idol in my pocket.
00:48:01Oh, no.
00:48:03Oh, no.
00:48:04Oh, no.
00:48:05Oh, no.
00:48:07Oh, no.
00:48:08Oh, no.
00:48:08Oh, no.
00:48:08Oh, no.
00:48:09Oh, no.
00:48:10Oh, no.
00:48:11Oh, no.
00:48:11Oh, no.
00:48:11Faith.
00:48:17I bet.
00:48:21You're going to have to
00:48:21point yourself up.
00:48:22It's OK.
00:48:23You can have the best man win.
00:48:26Think about Survivor
00:48:27when you wear a jacket.
00:48:29It's got a lot of pockets.
00:48:54I've also got a knife.
00:48:59A little package, myself.
00:49:01Two special surprises tonight.
00:49:03One more five.
00:49:06A hyperbole.
00:49:09Flash.
00:49:11Yeah!
00:49:17Yeah!
00:49:19So many big moves and blind-sized this season.
00:49:22Well, earlier in the season, Expedia and their travel rewards program OneKey gave you the chance to win $10,000
00:49:31worth of OneKey cash.
00:49:33Now, all you had to do was vote for your favorite Tribal Council moment.
00:49:38Congratulations.
00:49:40Dee Cronshaw from New South Wales.
00:49:43You've won yourself $10,000 of OneKey cash.
00:49:48Thanks to Expedia.
00:49:50Well, we can't talk about Big Tribals without talking about Dirty Harry and the Flint Roulette.
00:49:59Harry, on your first season you were so unkillable you 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, we would be understating the players here if I didn't give them the credit
00:50:18they deserve.
00:50:18I mean, we've got players like Lottie here.
00:50:21We've got Asha here.
00:50:22Like, so many of the players that I started with, it 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.
00:50:33Um, I think it was a great play.
00:50:35Um, they have my number.
00:50:37Well, this season really proved that when everyone comes to play, great players can go home at any moment.
00:50:46Paula.
00:50:46Hi, Daddy DJ.
00:50:48You landed on the beach, made great allies, started making moves and then you're blindsided.
00:50:53Is your head still spinning?
00:50:55It was painful to watch, but I think that kind of really started everything up.
00:51:03Lottie had our number and she clocked us pretty quickly, which was, uh, 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 or did it feel like coming home?
00:51:23I loved the season that I first played in and I learned so much from the other players that I
00:51:28played with.
00:51:28So, I was just taking lessons from all of the greats.
00:51:31They were the ghosts that were haunting me, but also they taught me all my lessons.
00:51:35So, I just went out there and I'm like, hey, if Varys and Kirby and Eileen and Edith and Val,
00:51:41everyone, if they can do these great moves to tribal, why 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 as the people he's blindsided come back
00:52:05to haunt him.
00:52:06But first, our friends at MasterChef have a message for our sole survivor, Caleb.
00:52:12A big congratulations from all of us here at MasterChef to you, Caleb, for taking out the title of sole
00:52:19survivor. That was an epic game.
00:52:20Survivor redemption was such an incredible season to watch. I was on the edge of my seat.
00:52:26You definitely deserve to win and especially after eating rice and beans for the last 45 days. Well done.
00:52:33Enjoy the spoils of your big win and Australia will see you right here this Sunday at 7pm for the
00:52:39launch of a brand new season of MasterChef.
00:52:52Welcome back to the Survivor reunion. This season, 20 new players hit the starting mat alongside four returnees.
00:53:04Tez, here he is. You're a massive fan of the game. What did you think when you landed on the
00:53:10mat and you saw that you can be playing against these returnees?
00:53:14I was shocked. I mean, Brookie Jowett, she's not a legend for no reason. It's surreal. I mean, watching the
00:53:23show since I was six years old, you freeze up. And unfortunately, that's what I did.
00:53:30Stop your test!
00:53:37Well, the newbies started with the numbers, but that didn't stop the returnees from casting a long shadow over the
00:53:45game.
00:53:45None more than the man with a blazer full of blindsides, Mark.
00:53:53I am here for redemption and vengeance.
00:53:56The last time I played, my dead allies got cut because I wasn't cutthroat enough.
00:54:02Go over here. Go over here, boys.
00:54:04Oh, a lot of movement.
00:54:07So, I want...
00:54:08Oh, Stephen, I can't.
00:54:11Mark is the PM of this tribe, the Prime Minister.
00:54:15He's a very good manipulator of 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.
00:54:26Ruby Soho is number one.
00:54:28I really want you to know that I really want to go deep with you as well.
00:54:31Yeah.
00:54:32That's why when I saw you, I wanted to say...
00:54:41My reach has no limits.
00:54:44It's like these tentacles that just wrap around these newbies.
00:54:47I've already got a name for us.
00:54:49What is it?
00:54:49With the boomerangs.
00:54:50Because we always come back.
00:54:53And 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.
00:55:06And it must be removed.
00:55:12Take it. I'm the best man.
00:55:14The thing about Survivor, when you wear a jacket...
00:55:17It's got a lot of pockets.
00:55:20So...
00:55:21That's me.
00:55:23That's how you're rich.
00:55:25I'm sure I'm better.
00:55:28Richard.
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 Keely are going to turn on me.
00:55:43Yeah, I could convince myself to vote you off.
00:55:45If you get to the end, yeah, you win over me.
00:55:48You'll still be friends no matter what.
00:56:01You should've probably lied and told me you'd take it to the end.
00:56:17You should've probably lied and told me you'd take it to the end.
00:56:19Was this the cutthroat game that you set out to play?
00:56:22Yeah, absolutely.
00:56:23There 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 and I wasn't afraid of making moves.
00:56:40I knew that my chances of winning the game were low, so just go out there, have fun.
00:56:44And I know that these other newbies, if they get another chance, they'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 from 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?
00:57:04Yeah, 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 and 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,
00:57:41it transcends the universe.
00:57:44It 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.
00:57:53It'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.
00:58:07He's very possessive.
00:58:10They're very, very close.
00:58:12We need to think about who's next.
00:58:14I mean, I'm thinking it is.
00:58:19I want his pants.
00:58:21I love being in control.
00:58:23I think this is great.
00:58:26Faith.
00:58:31Shocked.
00:58:32Really, really shocked.
00:58:33Crazy.
00:58:35That was like totally mind-bought.
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.
00:59:01There'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?
01:00:02What?
01:00:02We loved the game.
01:00:04And 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.
01:00:15We 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?
01:00:26Um, look, I don't have regrets.
01:00:29I think that I played a very, I played an honest game and I think that was also very much
01:00:34mine 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.
01:00:43That, 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.
01:00:50Um, 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.
01:00:59All right, 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.
01:01:18Yeah!
01:01:19Hello, darling.
01:01:22Sally will be guessing for bounty.
01:01:25Brooke.
01:01:26Take a peek.
01:01:34Oh my gosh, your face.
01:01:37I, I think it could be something from home.
01:01:40Something from home?
01:01:41Maybe.
01:01:42But, I don't know if I want it or not.
01:01:45Something from home, like a letter?
01:01:47Like a, just something in there that says, from home.
01:01:53Do you want that?
01:01:56I don't know if I should or not, but...
01:01:58Oh no, this is emotional, this one.
01:02:03You want it?
01:02:04I think I want it.
01:02:05I 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!
01:02:29Okay.
01:02:29A slice of lime.
01:02:33I'm so sorry.
01:02:37Brooke, what have you got?
01:02:40Oh, lemon meringue pie!
01:02:45That is how it's done.
01:02:49Welcome back to the Survivor reunion.
01:02:52Brooke, that bluff was brutal.
01:02:54Oh!
01:02:55I loved it.
01:02:56I 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.
01:03:10Um, but it also won me the lemon pie that I was so desperate for,
01:03:14because your girl was hungry. Have 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?
01:03:25The thing about Brooke is I couldn't trust anything that she said.
01:03:28Like, 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 she was lying to me.
01:03:34You're a pretty funny guy.
01:03:35He's smiling the whole time like a Cheshire cat.
01:03:38I'm like, well, what is he thinking?
01:03:40Mmm, I'm sorry, Brooke.
01:03:42You did better than me.
01:03:43We could have done something fun.
01:03:45Yeah, we could have. We could have. Next 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?
01:03:55Come on, man. You run your mouth, you run out of luck,
01:03:57and my mouth did a marathon.
01:03:59Yeah, I've 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.
01:04:29Daniel, you're a huge fan of the game.
01:04:33Yes, I am.
01:04:34You 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
01:04:40because you kept mixing up everyone's names?
01:04:43Sadly, it's on brand for me to be bad with names,
01:04:46so none of my friends were surprised,
01:04:48but, 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
01:04:56of many, many, many deals out there.
01:05:00What were you going to do if you had to admit
01:05:03that 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
01:05:09that I'm very fond of and very good at
01:05:12and put 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,
01:05:24Australian Survivor has never had a tribal council
01:05:27that went to rocks.
01:05:28The final eight.
01:05:30You guys got very, very close.
01:05:33Rook.
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
01:05:41without winning the challenges every single time,
01:05:44but I didn't know Keely was going to whip out
01:05:46all these secret immunity wins,
01:05:47so I had to get him.
01:05:49Well, rocks have been threatened again and again and again,
01:05:54but it's never happened.
01:05:56I think maybe it's time to ask the survivor gods
01:05:59Oh, no.
01:06:01if it's ever going to happen.
01:06:03By going to rocks.
01:06:05How good.
01:06:07Rook, you want to come help me out?
01:06:14Alright, you know the drill.
01:06:16Take a rock, don't look at it.
01:06:17Get this little bag open.
01:06:19Please prove that getting Simon out was the right decision.
01:06:21Take two, take two.
01:06:23You're not allowed, did 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,
01:06:29we are never going to rocks in Australian Survivor ever again.
01:06:33If it's a white rock,
01:06:34we're going to go to rocks next season.
01:06:38Let's see what the survivor gods want.
01:06:39If it's a red rock, I get Caleb's 500k.
01:06:43Deal.
01:06:43Deal.
01:06:43Alright.
01:06:43Ready.
01:06:44Alright, book.
01:06:45Reveal.
01:06:47Oh!
01:06:50That's a lot of pressure for the new car.
01:06:52Yes!
01:06:53Let's keep going!
01:06:54What?
01:06:55I mean, it must be a hell of a season coming up.
01:06:59Alright, coming up,
01:07:00we talk ride or dies that crashed and burned,
01:07:02legendary moves,
01:07:04and a hat made of ten beavers.
01:07:08Survivor reunion continues right after the break.
01:07:11Can'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,
01:07:33Matt Rogers.
01:07:34It's Don Roberts.
01:07:35Rogers.
01:07:36Roberts.
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,
01:07:44looking at it now,
01:07:45is I'm so proud that one of my original Cornship Cartel
01:07:49took 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
01:08:00Killer Keely's first ever blindside,
01:08:02which she has reminded me that, you know,
01:08:05she'll always remember her first.
01:08:06So, hats off to you, Keely.
01:08:11Don took charge of the shelter,
01:08:13but this pair took charge of their tribe.
01:08:16Let's take a look at the rise and fall of Asha and Lottie.
01:08:25Oh, she's running crazy, that girl.
01:08:27She's, her head is ten steps ahead.
01:08:30I 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.
01:08:36She's gotta go.
01:08:37Each time you drop that ball,
01:08:39you have to start again.
01:08:42Oh!
01:08:44Sorry, sorry.
01:08:46Sorry.
01:08:48You're trying to throw up.
01:08:49I was happy to throw a challenge
01:08:51because I want Brooke packing her bags
01:08:53and boot scooting out of here.
01:08:54We need to go to trouble tonight.
01:08:57In fact, bring it on.
01:08:58Everyone's in position.
01:09:00And now...
01:09:01Woo!
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.
01:09:15You reckon it's an advantage or a disadvantage
01:09:18being a second-timer?
01:09:20I reckon they'll have a target on the back.
01:09:21Yeah.
01:09:22Returning players are absolutely dangerous
01:09:25and 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.
01:09:37I want Paula tonight.
01:09:38I want Paula tonight.
01:09:40I want Paula tonight.
01:09:40If we can cut Paula,
01:09:42Harry 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
01:10:01the leader of the resistance, in my opinion.
01:10:04Yeah.
01:10:04100%.
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, they have.
01:10:24Asha, it seemed like the bigger and bolder you played,
01:10:28the more fun you had, right?
01:10:29Yeah.
01:10:30Um, I have zero patience for anything in life,
01:10:32so I was like,
01:10:33let's go!
01:10:34As soon as I got there, I was like,
01:10:36let's play, let's do it.
01:10:37I'm excited.
01:10:38This is a once in a lifetime opportunity,
01:10:40so I just went for it.
01:10:42Lottie, what was it like working with the returnees,
01:10:45first Harry and then Simon?
01:10:48Uh, it was never actually in my game plan at all,
01:10:50but when I laid eyes on that first challenge,
01:10:54uh, I knew that I needed at least one of them
01:10:56to pull me through,
01:10:57and, um, hats off to Simon.
01:10:59He skull-dragged me through
01:11:02every single one of those challenges,
01:11:04and I would have been long gone before I went
01:11:07if it wasn't for these boys,
01:11:08so I am very grateful for that.
01:11:11You were fine, mate.
01:11:11You were good.
01:11:12You were good.
01:11:13Roll the tapes and you were good.
01:11:17Harry, it seemed like you picked Lottie
01:11:19as a threat from day one.
01:11:21What did you see in her that others didn't?
01:11:24Uh, I think it was just her vision of the game.
01:11:27Just straight away,
01:11:28she could see where everyone sat in the tribe.
01:11:31Not only that,
01:11:32she had the right allies with her to compliment her.
01:11:35Blanche.
01:11:36Yes.
01:11:37Yes, Dave.
01:11:37As soon as you linked up with Asha at Tribe Swap,
01:11:40you 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.
01:11:50I fell in love.
01:11:52Instant 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,
01:12:00you still have Blanche's idol
01:12:02Yeah.
01:12:03in your bag.
01:12:04Yeah.
01:12:04What were you thinking?
01:12:05It was amazing.
01:12:06It was a genuine mistake.
01:12:07Like, I didn't just steal it.
01:12:10Otherwise, I would have used it for myself.
01:12:13Well, speaking of idols, let's talk about the half idol.
01:12:16No.
01:12:17Let's not.
01:12:19Sally, you managed to get your hands on both half idols and then you didn't play it for
01:12:24Keeley.
01:12:25Why?
01:12:27Um, because Keeley was the best player out there.
01:12:31Why would I save Keeley?
01:12:33I'm so sorry.
01:12:34But 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, she 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 or a half idol slip through my fingers.
01:12:51Especially top five, I was going down guns blazing and that's what I did.
01:12:55Well, that's the crazy thing about Survivor.
01:12:57You could be playing a great game, but make one mistake.
01:13:01Get unlucky or just, you know, keep someone up at night and then you're toast.
01:13:09Eliza, did you ever imagine your torch would be snuffed because you kept Lyndall awake at night?
01:13:16When you come into a game like Survivor, you run many, many scenarios through your head
01:13:21and that is my responsibility. I did not see that coming and I got got.
01:13:27Lyndall, do people underestimate the value of good sleep in this game?
01:13:31Yes!
01:13:31They do!
01:13:34Look, I was hallucinating by night three, but she also told me it was going to be Loz, myself or
01:13:39her
01:13:40and my Delulu brain was like, right, 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 and they pulled it off with the greatest forgery in Survivor
01:13:55history.
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 us to be the triangle offence.
01:14:1796 balls.
01:14:18Yes.
01:14:20When we've got him on the ropes like this, he can't, he can't dodge in the corner like Muhammad Ali
01:14:28can.
01:14:28He has to be hit.
01:14:30And the best part about my plan, nobody 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.
01:14:49Mark.
01:14:58What's your biggest blind spot?
01:15:06I don't know.
01:15:07It's probably right in front of your face.
01:15:10Yeah, it probably is him.
01:15:11Yeah.
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?
01:15:26Thanks, man.
01:15:40Ben.
01:15:41You're built to resistance.
01:15:43You've finally got the upper hand and then Jackson blindsides you.
01:15:46How did it feel to be booted by your best mate?
01:15:49Okay.
01:15:49So here's the thing, Dave.
01:15:50We're in the jungle.
01:15:51Dave-O gets a stain in his pants.
01:15:53Right?
01:15:54Mark 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.
01:15:57Okay.
01:15:58Right?
01:15:59I take it to my mum.
01:16:00She washes it.
01:16:01She can't get it out.
01:16:01Right?
01:16:02And...
01:16:03Was Jackson your mum in that analogy?
01:16:11Me and Jackson, my boy, he 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 when we were talking to people.
01:16:22We didn't even...
01:16:22See?
01:16:23See what he did there?
01:16:24And I was like...
01:16:25My game was like, I'm gonna stand by you, my boy.
01:16:27I'm taking you to the end.
01:16:28He's really laying it on thick, Jackson.
01:16:30I mean...
01:16:31How did it feel, the vote you made out?
01:16:32It was the worst thing I've ever done, man.
01:16:35It sucked.
01:16:36Well, I was gonna say, now that it's all said and done, would you do it again?
01:16:39Would I blind-time him again?
01:16:40Yeah.
01:16:43Yeah, I'd do it again.
01:16:47Well, it was a survivor heist for the ages.
01:16:50Brooke and Keely had one real idol, one fake idol and two people to get through tribal council.
01:16:55Let's take a look.
01:17:04Sally, are you concerned that the returnees might have found a little help out there?
01:17:08Yep.
01:17:10Oh!
01:17:13Oh, 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. This is what I'm here for.
01:17:28I think it's great.
01:17:30We got it.
01:17:32I've also got a nice little package myself.
01:17:39Two special surprises tonight.
01:17:41One more.
01:17:41This is nuts.
01:17:42Crazy.
01:17:43It's nuts.
01:17:44Brooke's wrong, Scott.
01:17:46I want to split 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.
01:18:05Do you feel it, babe?
01:18:08I'm good.
01:18:09I'm good.
01:18:10I'm good.
01:18:11Blanche.
01:18:14Ben.
01:18:1915th person voted out of Australian Survivor Redemption.
01:18:23Blanche.
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 clued you in?
01:18:46That she was hiding it.
01:18:48Bro, Brooke's a, like, when she wants to be, she's a loud player.
01:18:52If it was real, she'd be wearing around that neck and showing it in all our faces.
01:18:55She hid it in her jacket.
01:18:56Dodgy as.
01:18:58Dodgy as.
01:18:59Simon, there's apparently two idols, a lot of confusion, but you still flipped on your
01:19:05alliance 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
01:19:12idol, I 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 pal to
01:19:21them,
01:19:21I 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.
01:19:31And sure enough, like, throwing that vote on Brooke, you know, obviously it wasn't great
01:19:34for my relationship with Brooke at that time, but it saved us on the next one and opened the
01:19:38door for the, uh, for Jackson to come and flip over.
01:19:41So, like, that didn't happen without throwing that vote on Brooke.
01:19:46Well, Chilly, 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
01:20:06about getting out their attorneys.
01:20:07They wanted to write their name down and put it in the urn.
01:20:11So, I was, I was worried.
01:20:13I thought maybe one or two Keeley votes in that urn.
01:20:16And 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.
01:20:29Right 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.
01:20:48Welcome to Australian Survivor Redemption.
01:20:58I thought my redemption in this game was going to be like playing an idol correctly.
01:21:02Oh.
01:21:03I just realised my redemption was playing this game well.
01:21:06100 days for Simon.
01:21:07100 days for Simon.
01:21:09100 days for Simon.
01:21:10100 days for Simon.
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.
01:21:33Don't give me, I'm not ready.
01:21:34It's not 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.
01:21:58I'm not going to be such a big target.
01:22:00You know where it 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, Brooke!
01:22:24With individual immunity!
01:22:27I was wanting to prove to myself that I'm still the same 23-year-old me
01:22:33and I'm still just as strong and resilient and crazy.
01:22:37I'm just a mum now.
01:22:39And 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.
01:23:30Trust 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 and
01:23:52how 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.
01:23:59So, 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
01:24:49Stars 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.
01:25:09And, yeah, I just, I've been overwhelmed by what this has given me and it's been one hell of a
01:25:15journey.
01:25:16Yeah, well, you've certainly done the play around. Thanks, friend.
01:25:26Well, that's it for Australian Survivor Redemption.
01:25:31Casting is open for next season.
01:25:35Brand new location, brand new theme.
01:25:38All that's missing is you.
01:25:40If you've always wanted to play, this is your sign to apply.
01:25:45Know someone who you think would be great.
01:25:47We want to meet them.
01:25:48The buffs are waiting.
01:25:50Who knows?
01:25:51You might walk away with half a million dollars just like Caleb.
01:26:02See you next season in Malaysia.
01:26:05Yeah!
01:26:09Oh, my god!
01:26:12Oh my god!
01:26:21Yeah!
01:26:24Oh my god!
01:26:32Yeah, Javi!
01:26:33Yeah, we can go.
