Big Mouth

Premieres Tuesday, 6th of May at 9.30pm

Big Mouth is the insider show whose job it is to watch the biggest watcher of them all, Big Brother.

Hosted by Tony Squires and Rebecca Wilson, the weekly panel show will take on the hot issues in the house and nothing will be off limits.

With Big Brother promising to deliver the most diverse and eclectic bunch of house mates ever this year, there is no doubt there will be plenty for the Big Mouth duo and their weekly guests to talk about on the show each week. Rated MA 15+ Big Mouth will also be the forum for the adult themes that naturally occur in the house, to be discussed openly.

Tony and Rebecca will be joined by the weekly Evictee and former housemates and guests, including 2005 runner up Tim Brunero and the outspoken dread locked house mate of 2004 Paul Dyer, the show will shine the spotlight on what’s going on and who’s going off in the Big Brother house.

Exclusive scenes, access all areas, dishing the dirt on the house mates, the good, the bad and the ugly, no topic will be too hot to handle for the Big Mouth panel.

Big Mouth will air Tuesdays at 9.30pm.

Tony Squires – Co Host

Originally from Newcastle, Tony Squires has had an exciting career spanning the stage, music, radio and television.

Tony has been a highly successful journalist and media personality for over 20 years. His career as an actor started and ended with an audition for NIDA, which he failed and from there he vowed to destroy all actors’ careers.

He then took up writing for the Sydney Morning Herald where he was a feature writer, columnist and section editor. He edited The Guide for a number of years as well as being deputy editor of the Sports section.

He made the switch to TV when he was asked to present for Foxtel’s Arena channel. “Inside the Area” was a live to air television show, talking about television. From there he went on to host The Fat on the ABC, and then 110% Tony Squires and also anchored Channel Seven’s Athens Olympic Coverage.

In 2005 Tony was appointed co-host of Sydney’s Vega 95.3FM drive time show with long time friend and co-host Rebecca Wilson. In 2006 they moved to the competitive Sydney Breakfast time slot and this year were joined by Mikey Robins for the “Tony, Bec and Mikey show”.

He currently writes a weekly column about popular culture for the Sunday Telegraph.

 

Rebecca Wilson – Co Host

Queensland’s gift to the nation, Rebecca Wilson has spent the better part of her life playing, watching and talking sport.

After serving a cadetship at the Courier Mail, Rebecca went onto cover the Brisbane Commonwealth Games, the Seoul Olympics and Rugby League, for Channel 10.

In 1992 Rebecca joined ABC Television hosting and reporting on Saturday Afternoon Sports before taking up the position of Super League Media Manager in 1995. She went onto join News Limited as General Manager of their Sydney Olympics Division and worked as project manager for the Rugby World Cup. Rebecca also has her own sports column in the Daily Telegraph, Sunday Telegraph and Adelaide Advertiser.

An original panelist on The Fat, Rebecca quickly made her mark with her acerbic wit and her willingness to expose ‘gibberers’, as well as a passion and knowledge of all things sporting.

In 2004 Rebecca joined Channel Seven to present, alongside host Tony Squires, a new sports panel program known as “110% Tony Squires” as well as becoming a regular contributor to the popular Sunrise program which continues today.

In 2005 Rebecca was appointed co-host of Vega 95.3 FM’s Drive time show with long time friend and co-host from The Fat, Tony Squires.

In 2006, Rebecca and Tony moved to hosting duties in the ultra-competitive breakfast time slot at Vega and were joined recently by Mikey Robins.

 

Regular Panelists

What better way to get an insiders view on the vents in the Big Brother house, than from ex-housemates who have lived and breathed the Big Brother experience for themselves.

Tim Brunero – BB05

Tim Brunero entered the auditions for Big Brother 2005 almost as a joke. He ended up being accepted into the house and making it all the way to the end of the competition as the runner-up.

Tim was best known for his witty comments and for being the ‘intelligent’ deep thinker with a crush on fellow housemate Kate.

Before entering the house Tim worked as a journalist and currently writes as a blogger for Who Magazine and satirical site, The Chaser. Time also produces weekly video podcasts for Livenews.com.au in conjunction with 2GB.

Paul Dyer – BB04

Hailing from Victoria, this dreadlocked surf shop owner came third in the fourth series of Big Brother.

Paul was known for being the stirrer of the house, and someone who was not afraid to let people know his true thoughts and feelings. Not one to shy away from confrontation, he was best remembered for having a huge argument with Merlin over Merlin not becoming an Australian Citizen.

After leaving Big Brother, Paul went back to working at his Surf Shop in Geelong. Paul is married with 2 children.
