The highly anticipated new season of Big Brother Mzansi has kicked off, and while the contestants have already started bringing the heat, we take a look at the mansion that features a number of cameras that capture the contestants’ every move.

Biggie’s newly revamped house has upgrades that align perfectly with the theme of the season, “Umlilo”.
