Australia’s Channel Seven announced that its hit new show House Rules will return for a second series.

This year’s teams are vying for one of the biggest prizes in Australian television – their entire mortgage paid off. The in-house production, from the makers of My Kitchen Rules, has attracted a huge following since its debut, averaging a national audience of 1.8 million (OzTAM ratings). Applications are now open at the official House Rules website at www.yahoo7.com.au/tv.

Seven’s Director of Network Production, Brad Lyons, said, “We are delighted audiences have enjoyed the House Rules experience. And they’re in for an even bigger ride in series two.”
