I was just looking back at Richie’s season filming schedule as he started filming at a similar time to Nick’s to get an idea of where we are at. Richie’s first night was sleuthed to be March 12, with his FRC filmed late May/early June. His FRC according to media reports at the time was pushed back a bit as the paps found the location.

Nicks season started filming March 15, so a couple of days later, but presuming that they don’t lose days because of the paps his FRC would be around the same time. Brooke’s hometown date was probably filmed first as it was WA, and it makes sense to go there first, and work their way back, and that was no later than May 11. Brittany’s date in Port Macquarie is no later than May 17. Cassandra’s assumed HTD would have either been filmed between these, or after Brittanys, as she’s on Sydney’s northern beaches, and they would neeed to go through Sydney to get to Port Mac, and will obviously finish in Sydney for the RC. IMO, they are filming FD this week, with MTP and FRC happening next week.

I'm still wondering if Cassandra must have had a date early on that wasn't photographed or reported.  It doesn't make sense for him to keep her all this time and not take her out IMO, especially if she's the bookies favourite to win.

ETA:  Here's what we know of the filming schedule:

March 14/15 - Introductions and first cocktail party, reported Here
March 20 - Single date with "First Date Girl" - helicopter ride, paddle boarding, picnic, Basin National Park.  Reported Here
March 23 - Single date with Romy.  Strolling around Manly.  Reported Here
March 26 - Group date - women pictured leaving the mansion Here
March 27 - Woman's Day group photoshoot reported Here
March 28 -  Single date with Dasha - swimming, fishing, Dirty Dancing lift in the water, reported Here
April 3 - Group date at rugby stadium with 12 girls reported Here
April 5 - Single date with Sophie - water sports at Lyne Park in Rose Bay reported Here
April 9 - Single date or possibly SQT after a group date - hot air ballooning in the loveheart balloon (not reported in the media)
April 10 - Mini group date in Glenworth Valley with three girls (Romy and 2 others)
April 13 - Space hopper group date with intruders reported Here
April 17 - Group date with skimpy coloured bikinis reported Here. Eight girls pictured
April 20 - Single date with brunette at the zoo reported Here

Anyone else notice what I notice?  Why that massive gap between March 28 and April 3?  If Cassandra had a date during that time, that would make her the 4th date girl which, if they are following the pattern identified upthread, would be the F1 date.

To add on from this schedule:

April 26- Group date at racing car track.
May 01- Single Date with Cassandra with school bus pick up to Wet N Wild
May 4- Group date (Segway date with F7: Cass, Dasha, Emily, Brooke, Sophie, First Date Girl, Britt)
May 11 - HTD with Brooke in WA.
May 17- HTD with Britt in Port Macquarie- Camel date
May 20- F4 RC (posted by DM on May 21). F4: Britt, Brooke, Cass and Sophie. Brooke pictured holding a rose, suggesting she stays to F3.


If Sophie's date was indeed the 4th single date, it looks like the pattern may continue for her to be F1 since it has been sleuthed that Cass possibly has gone home at F4.

When does the show start? I read that it’s late July. Why??!! Does Nick and his F1 get to see each other during this break until the show premiere?
Are the contestants supposed to stay private on social media?

...

We know (if the paps are to be believed) that Shannon for the first date, so her max loss should be low.  If Britt's max loss is less, something very fishy is going on.  I'm now thinking Britt's Zoo date must have been her SECOND date.  That would make things very interesting since it pushes Sophie's date back to the FIFTH date, not the fourth.  

Second and fourth dates are popular F1 dates historically.  If Shannon gets the FIRST, and Britt actually got the SECOND date (not publicised), that puts Britt in a much better position for F1.  Sophie might actually be the "slow burn" latecomer F2 ala Elise????

Maybe she's just behaving like a happy F1 post-show because she wasn't that into him and is happy with F2 fame?  Thoughts pls.

Good point.  Romy's might have been SQT.  And I think there was a gap in the timeline where Britt may have gone on a date.

I'm going to carry all this over to the Filming Schedule thread to see if we can puzzle it out.  All I know is, a first date contestant has never won Bach AU, only ever 2nd or 4th dates, so unless they've thrown out the rule book, it will be one of those two girls IMO.

OK folks, let's hear your theories...  

I'm thinking:

March 14/15 - Introductions and first cocktail party, reported Here
March 20 - Single date with "First Date Girl" (1st date of the season?)- helicopter ride, paddle boarding, picnic, Basin National Park.  Reported Here
March 23 - Single date Group date plus SQT with with Romy?.  Strolling around Manly.  Reported Here
Possible date with BRITT here IMO March 24 or March 25, secret location (mansion?) where paps couldn't see
(second date of the season?)
March 26 - Group date - women pictured leaving the mansion Here
March 27 - Woman's Day group photoshoot reported Here
March 28 -  Single date with Dasha - swimming, fishing, Dirty Dancing lift in the water, reported Here (third date of the season?)
April 3 - Group date at rugby stadium with 12 girls reported Here
April 5 - Single date with Sophie - water sports at Lyne Park in Rose Bay reported Here (fourth date of the season?)
April 9 - Single date or possibly SQT after a group date - hot air ballooning in the loveheart balloon (not reported in the media)
April 10 - Mini group date in Glenworth Valley with three girls (Romy and 2 others)
April 13 - Space hopper group date with intruders reported Here
April 17 - Group date with skimpy coloured bikinis reported Here. Eight girls pictured
April 20 - Second date with BRITT (zoo date) reported Here
April 26- Group date at racing car track.
May 01- Single Date with Cassandra with school bus pick up to Wet N Wild
May 4- Group date (Segway date with F7: Cass, Dasha, Emily, Brooke, Sophie, First Date Girl, Britt)
May 11 - HTD with Brooke in WA.
May 17- HTD with Britt in Port Macquarie- Camel date
May 20- F4 RC (posted by DM on May 21). F4: Britt, Brooke, Cass and Sophie. Brooke pictured holding a rose, suggesting she stays to F3. reported Here

F1 stats from previous seasons:

Season 1, Anna = second date (episode 3)
Season 2, Sam = fourth date (episode 5)
Season 3, Snezana = second date (episode 3)
Season 4, Alex = fourth date (episode 5)
Season 5, Laura = second date (episode 3)

So if Romy's is actually SQT and not a single date, and if Britt does get a date in the spot I suggested, that would make Britt the second of the season, and Sophie the fourth.  So they'd both be in prime "date spots" for F1.  

Which doesn't really help at all!

@Bobette Thanks for all that!

Awesome work @Bobette!! 


For easy retrieval: per your reporting HERE, changes made to Britt and Sophie's IG (sleuthed/speculated F2)

I suspect (strongly) Britt has a date before the zoo date. They are too familiar and there are too many other caps of them together in different clothes to suggest otherwise. Question is do with have a Nikki On our hands????

Yes, Britt has a yacht day with Nick. Its on Daily Mail. I can't link as I am using the app.Maybe Bobbette can do it.

On it Another different outfit for Britt - That's the 4th different date outfit at least that we've seen (two red, one white, now this one).

They were definitely hiding her dates IMO - these would have been easy pics for the paparrazos to get.  They look really relaxed and happy

ETA:  Video

At some point does he put on her hat? There’s a sc of him in that same outfit but with a wide brim hat but Britt’s outfit has changed? Could be 3 dates then...

Will tonight's episode feature Dasha's date now that we're done with the Woman's day shoot? I saw on the ad that Brooke uses her key, so guessing her date and Dasha's are dates #3 and #4, meaning Britt doesn't get date #4?
