Context

Australian Survivor is an Australian reality competition game show based on the international Survivor format. Contestants are stranded in a remote location, compete in challenges, and are eliminated by vote until one person remains [1]. The show first aired in 2002 on the Nine Network, with Lincoln Howes as host, and offered a grand prize of A$500,000 [1]. After cancellation, it returned in 2006 on Seven Network for a celebrity season, and later was revived on Network 10 [1]. It is commonly confused with Survivor: The Australian Outback, the second season of the U.S. Survivor, which was also referred to as 'Survivor: Australia' [1].
