Housemates

The motto of the edition is Turn it over, with that they try "to open a door for the hope", in these times of crisis. In addition, it wanted to turn to the origins, with an alone house and fewer competitors. In this thirteenth edition it returned to modify the logo, that this time was consisting of the sum of all the eyes of the competitors.

Without losing the classic style of Gran Hermano, the edition 12+1 came loaded from innovations. Mercedes Milá announced in the show that, across eBay, everything the one that should want to compete might offer a quantity of money to buy a square in the house and turn into the "competitor + 1" of every week. All the benefits that were obtained would be destined entirely to Red Cross, which would help, across a specific project, the persons more duramente punished by the crisis.

The competitors expelled before Mary Joy, were expelled in a soundproof cabin of Telecinco's set.
