Notes
 As part of a secret mission, Big Brother divided the 16 housemates into pairs, except for Roni & Gili, who entered the house as a father/son pair.  The secret mission was for the housemates to convince Roni & Gili of a couples' twist this year.  After one week, Big Brother asked Roni & Gili to name the couples whom they thought were contriving a familial or romantic relationship, with every couple they correctly guessed automatically facing eviction.  However, as they failed to realize that everyone was in a fake relationship, Roni and Gili also automatically faced eviction. 
 As part of the "Survivor"-themed task, Big Brother split the house into two tribes.  The losing tribe would go to Tribal Council, and vote for one person to face the public vote.  The tribe of Gili were the losers, and named Gili for eviction.  As Paulina won in the "Imunnity challenge", she was immune from facing eviction this week.  
 There was no eviction in Week 4.  However, Big Brother asked the housemates to nominate their favourite housemate.  Avi was named favourite housemate after a tiebreaker vote between himself and Leon, and his reward was immunity from Week 5's eviction, which saw everyone else in the house bar Avi face the public vote. 
 Didi, Itay, Moti, Or and Yarden, as new housemates, are exempt from the nominations process; that is, they cannot nominate nor be nominated.  
 Levana is automatically nominated during Week 11 for trying to coordinate nominations, and breaking the house rules because of that.  
 In Week 11, Dorin chose to nominate herself for eviction.  Therefore, she automatically entered to the nomination list.  
 In Week 13, the housemate's loveones entered the house, and chose the nomination list instead of the housemates.  
 Avi is automatically nominated during Week 15 for telling Dorin he nominated her for eviction (in week 14 nomination),and breaking the house rules because of that.  
 The housemates were asked to name one housemate who should get immunity from the final eviction.  Levana & Leon received 2 votes each, and Itay was asked to choose between them who will get the immunity.  He chose Levana, and she got the immunity.   
 There were no nominations in the final week and the public were voting for housemates to win, rather than be evicted.  the housemate with the most SMS votes was the winner.
