Ashley's Big Brother 2

Big Brother 2 is the second season of Ashley's Big Brother, which began on October 1, 2013 and ended a month later on November 1. Fourteen housemates entered the house on launch night, with Blake L. emerging as the winner on finale night with 49.7% of the public vote.

Angie, John and Natasha all returned to compete in Big Brother 8: All-Stars.

Production
The second season revolved around the theme of "paranoia", and was the first of many to include twists to the usual Big Brother format, with the addition of a title known as "Player X". Similar to the MVP twist from the American version of Big Brother, Player X is decided by the public at the beginning of each week; their identity was kept a secret from the rest of their housemates, though they were allowed to share the information with housemates of their choice. The twist first appeared in the Week 1, in which Player X (Jackie) chose, in secret, the three people who would be facing eviction that week. From Week 2 to Week 5, Player X was able to choose a fourth housemate to face eviction alongside the housemates' nominations and that of the "House Captain". Unbeknownst to the housemates, the public acted as Player X in Week 6. The twist was disbanded after the sixth week.

Format
Each week lasts four days and comprises of four different events: the House Captain competition, nominations, the Power of Veto competition and an eviction of a housemate at the end of the week. The House Captain competition takes place on the second day of the week and decides which housemate would be in power for that week. This housemate is given immediate immunity from eviction for the week, and holds the responsibility of nominating one other housemate for eviction. The housemates begin nominating soon after the competition has finished; they are given 22 hours to visit the Diary Room and nominate two other housemates for eviction, and the two or more housemates who receive the most nominations face eviction alongside the Captain's nomination. Following the nominations reveal, the housemates compete in the Power of Veto competition, which allows the winning housemate to save one of the nominated housemates for eviction and replace them with someone of their own choice, or choose not to use it at all. Following the announcement of the final nominees, a poll opens in which the public decide which housemate should be evicted. The eviction take place on the final day of the week, and the cycle continues.
