Previously on The Biggest Loser Australia the contestants finally arrived at Camp, were weighed in and given their first workout for the season.

Tonight the trainers join the weigh-in party!

Then a contest between the four teams. The prize? “Power over the game.” Son of a bitch.

Previously on The Biggest Loser we were introduced to all the new contestants and the one brand new trainer and the trainer who scored himself a full time job, Commando Steve!

Tonight it’s time for the very first weigh-in of the season. This year has an extra twist with each of the families weighing in while the rest of their family and close friends watch. Yikes!

Time for some recapped footage! Boring.

First up The Moon Family walk up a beach through a double line of friends and family.
The Duncans walk into a room at a pub, seemingly?
The Westrens are in someone’s backyard with everyone clapping and cheering.
The Challenors have to climb a set of stairs to get to their people. Poor Damien’s obviously struggling with that.

And we’re back!

And we’re already into the recap footage before the show has even started!

Mr Voiceover tells us it’s a family year this time around. Sisters, brothers, fathers, nephews, etc. Four families, four trainers. Including Tiffiny SCREAMING as she snaps some boards!

Family ties will be stretched to the limit. Lots of dramatic walkoffs in the future, lots of people screaming at each other and at their trainers. One even declares she hates Trainer Tiffiny.

The 2011 challenges will be supersized, there’s an arena competition each week of some kind. The trainers will be spending a week with their families, as you’ve seen from the ads, but they’ll also be weighing in for the first time. Presumably prior to their week away and then again afterwards!

And… there’s a new theme song? “We Are Family”? Bring back Shannon Nollllllllll!

Finally all the preliminaries are out of the way and we get into the meat of the show.

The official site has been updated with a whole bunch of new videos, but the most important bit is this…

Season 6 of The Biggest Loser Australia starts Sunday, January 30th, at 6.30pm on Channel 10.

Ten more days! Or thereabouts.

There’s interviews with Hayley and the four trainers up on the official site here: clicky.

Six of the contestants – four from Michelle’s team, two from Tiffiny’s – have also been interviewed.

Best to start with Damien’s interview. The 2011 Damien, much like the 2007 model, sets a new Biggest Loser Australia record for heaviest contestant. And it’s not hard to see why.

That is one ample looking fellow. Mish will certainly have her work cut out for her this year.

Click here to visit the Official Site and navigate to the other contestant videos. More should appear over the next few days as the premiere approaches.
