The properties of the binary components of the eclipsing variables found in the 47 Tuc core region as part of a search for extrasolar planets have been re-examined following reanalysis of the image photometry and calibration. This is part of an ongoing study to find fundamental properties of stars of different metallicity in a variety of environments through eclipsing-binary analyses.
