Final Event

The interviews were held on the Whitsunday Islands (including Hamilton, Hayman and Daydream Island) and involved all 16 applicants taking on a range of tasks from swimming, snorkelling, tasting local cuisine as well as undergoing formal interviews and tests.

The announcement of the successful applicant was a truly electric moment as Ben’s name was read out in front of the world’s cameras. The other applicants, who by now were all firm friends, rushed to congratulate him.
