OK, I have a little conspiracy theory! Hear me out!
This advertisement was put in most of Australia's main newspapers yesterday:
Obviously, you can see the numbers
07:29:04. What if these numbers actually refer to the number of days on the run (
29) and the Premiere Date of July 4? (Hence the
4 and 7 in the advertisement...). Of course, this depends on whether Masterchef Australia would of wrapped up by then, which is pretty unlikely, considering most seasons don't wrap until the end of July...
However, the trailer for the season aired tonight at
7:29pm, so the numbers are most likely referring to that, but I can't help myself sharing that little thought!
