Bachelor Australia - Season 5 - Matty Johnson - Media Social Media - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Masterchef usually ends the week before The Bachelor starts so unless it's a truncated Masterchef season I don't think the Bachelor can start until late July?

@sophienette I've been told my someone at Ch10 that it will start early July, and the Bachelorette will follow straight on like last year. Apparently it started later last year because of the Olympics, but this year it's back to early July now  

Early July? That's strange... I was told by the source I have connected to/with Network Ten that it will air end of July like it always has since season 2.
Also, last year actually aired a few days earlier than normal so it had nothing to do with the Olympics.
I do know that the Bette will follow the Bach again as it always has as well.

ETA: S2, S3, and S4 all aired at the end of July for every season source

Ok, that's interesting. I was just going by what he said about the Olympics, I hadn't actually checked when it usually airs. But he said start of July this year. I guess we'll have to wait and see.  

Hmm... May need to check your source because contrary to what he says, there's never been a season ever in the history of this show that started in the beginning of July so him saying that last year started later than previous seasons because of the Olympics and that they started in early July is false. Last year's season didn't start later, it actually started earlier than past seasons.

I don't see Matty's season starting any differently than S2, S3, S4 - all aired at the end of July and as posted above, due to the time slot for Master Chef. If anything changes I am sure the Network will make that known but atm, I have confirmation that Matty's season will air end of July as normal and Bette S3 will follow as usual.

So far there doesn't seem to be an original date idea from the producers.

If they reuse the props from Georgia's season, we will know they are trying to save money.

The dates are so low budget. No way that they pay their leads anything more than at most $50K, IMO (and based on what SW said).

I can live with them reusing props/outfits/dates as long as they have a great finale location 

Yes @pvpr !! AND there's a good love story!

I didn't like the jousting date first time around. Lucky Matty is a hottie to hold my interest!

I prefer the Bette finale locations to the Bach finale locations overall so hopefully they step it up this season and have great FDs and finale locations.

Can't believe Matty agreed to do this date! didnt he loose a tooth doing it on georgias season?! look if they save money for the bachelor maybe they will have more to spend for the bachelorette!!

@LeapofFaith I don't think he has a choice

OT: I love your avatar

You gotta love these 'insiders' .
First, Matty's not happy and wants a whole set of new ladies.  Now, he's forming strong bonds and therefore happy with them.  

I think now that ***I am***  seeing some of the ladies done up and seeing their social media, as opposed to just grainy pap shots, he's got quite a few beautiful women to connect with.  I know I had my initial reservations too from the first pap shots.  I can't wait to watch these bonds that Matty is forming!
