FunTranscript
00:00:00Previously...
00:00:03Just testing out the toilets.
00:00:04This week, we are doing the mezzanine en suite, our first room upstairs.
00:00:09I want to do like a striped shower, so the stripes kind of come down the wall, go on
00:00:13the bench.
00:00:14That's cool, right?
00:00:15Yeah.
00:00:16After seven long weeks, some teams are lacking motivation.
00:00:20I have design blocks.
00:00:21I'm feeling really uninspired and I have no idea what to do.
00:00:26Kylie and Brad had Tyler troubles.
00:00:29We've had a toilet have a baby, a toilet have a car accident, a toilet not show up.
00:00:38And videos were uncovered that changed the game.
00:00:40It's had the opportunity to be upfront and be transparent, but they didn't do that.
00:00:45None of us have ever tried to mislead or tell sort of lies about what we do.
00:00:50They've lied.
00:00:51They've lied.
00:00:52It's sneaky.
00:00:53Tonight...
00:00:54Four minutes.
00:00:55Four minutes.
00:00:56Our blockheads race to the finish line.
00:00:58Come on, quick.
00:00:59We don't need the pressure.
00:01:00Just come when it's done.
00:01:01Sibling rivalry takes hold.
00:01:02She doesn't know how to carry a ladder.
00:01:05Charlotte, that's not fair.
00:01:06I feel so incapable.
00:01:07Charlotte, without me, there is no room.
00:01:08So, would you like to win?
00:01:09And when the judges arrive...
00:01:10Oh, it's a book.
00:01:11It's hot.
00:01:12It looks awesome.
00:01:13This is in a league of its own.
00:01:14I don't know.
00:01:15I don't know.
00:01:16I don't know.
00:01:17I don't know.
00:01:18I don't know.
00:01:19I don't know.
00:01:20I don't know.
00:01:21I don't know.
00:01:22I don't know.
00:01:23I don't know.
00:01:24I don't know.
00:01:25Marty's feedback packs a punch.
00:01:27I absolutely hate it.
00:01:33Oh.
00:01:45You look so fresh and beautiful.
00:01:47You always do.
00:01:51Morning, Brad.
00:01:52How are you?
00:01:55Fine.
00:01:56Saturday.
00:01:57We have everything to do in this room.
00:01:58Everything.
00:01:59With just over 24 hours until reveal,
00:02:00House 4 need to transform their guest en suite
00:02:01from this to this.
00:02:02And they aren't the only team
00:02:03who will need to push hard today
00:02:04to bring their designs to life.
00:02:05Morning, boys.
00:02:06Morning.
00:02:07Morning.
00:02:08Morning.
00:02:09Morning.
00:02:10Morning.
00:02:11Morning.
00:02:12Morning.
00:02:13Morning.
00:02:14Morning.
00:02:15Morning.
00:02:16Morning.
00:02:17Morning.
00:02:18Morning.
00:02:19Morning.
00:02:20Morning.
00:02:21Morning.
00:02:22Morning.
00:02:23Morning.
00:02:24Good morning, boys.
00:02:25Good morning.
00:02:26We have tiling to finish.
00:02:27We have a vanity and a stone top to install.
00:02:34We have sanding, painting.
00:02:37We have shopping.
00:02:42So we've got to grout, fit the basin,
00:02:44get the mirror hung on the wall.
00:02:48Hi, everybody.
00:02:49I had seven hours sleep.
00:02:51I'm a new woman.
00:02:54The glass shower screen has to be put in.
00:02:56The plumber and lekkies will have to do their fit offs.
00:02:59No time to waste until we get a message
00:03:02from Mr. Scotty himself saying...
00:03:05Morning, Blockheads.
00:03:06There's no better way to start your day
00:03:08than with some exercise.
00:03:09Put on your activewear, jump in your Ford,
00:03:11meet us at the end of Gat Road.
00:03:13In the Ford, we have to leave.
00:03:15How far away is it?
00:03:16Oh, dear.
00:03:17Well, I don't know if I have any clean activewear.
00:03:20We were going to be leaving to go to another challenge.
00:03:23I was like, what?
00:03:24It's Saturday.
00:03:25We're delivering a bathroom tomorrow.
00:03:29Guys.
00:03:30Mims.
00:03:32Mimi.
00:03:33We have a challenge.
00:03:37No, you're ****ing me.
00:03:38I'm not joking.
00:03:40We can't go anywhere.
00:03:43Do you know we've got a challenge?
00:03:45No.
00:03:46Yeah, we do.
00:03:47No, we don't.
00:03:48You're joking.
00:03:49I'm not.
00:03:50On a Saturday.
00:03:51Come on, that's not fair.
00:03:52We'll be fine.
00:03:53Yeah, we'll win the challenge and we'll win the room.
00:03:55Can you not be so cocky?
00:03:56It's weird.
00:03:58Just be quiet.
00:04:00We'll try and let him know real softly.
00:04:05Hayden!
00:04:07Hayden!
00:04:10Hayden!
00:04:12We've got a challenge, mate.
00:04:16It's no surprise that Hayden is struggling to get out of bed this morning,
00:04:20as last night the block was buzzing.
00:04:22I have not been through what we've been through.
00:04:26Videos of Maddie and Charlotte were discovered by the rest of the teams,
00:04:29who were shocked to learn the extent of the sisters' renovating experience.
00:04:33Starting out with an ambitious full reno they sold for a tidy profit,
00:04:37this entrepreneurial duo is now transforming a house
00:04:40into a safe and comfortable home ready for future tenants.
00:04:44None of it adds up.
00:04:45So straight away, them hiding it is just ****ing damaging their character.
00:04:48It's just dumb.
00:04:49They had the opportunity...
00:04:51To be up front.
00:04:52To be up front and be transparent, but they didn't do that.
00:04:55It just felt a bit deceitful.
00:04:57It's sneaky.
00:05:01Seasoned renovators, it calls them.
00:05:03Just the way that they're cagey about it makes you go like,
00:05:06why?
00:05:07What are you playing at?
00:05:09They said they were just accountants.
00:05:11Yeah.
00:05:12They're in renovation.
00:05:13Yeah.
00:05:15What do you guys do for work?
00:05:17We both have business degrees,
00:05:18and so we've just done a whole different range.
00:05:20Mortgage broking, accounting, all that kind of random stuff.
00:05:24You like the idea of flying under the radar?
00:05:26Yeah.
00:05:27And you don't have the target on your back.
00:05:28I think it also covers that part,
00:05:29because I'm like, if we flop, then well, oh well.
00:05:32We can just tell them what else we do.
00:05:34We work in finance.
00:05:35Yes.
00:05:37We do.
00:05:38We just also have another huge hobby on the side.
00:05:41Just don't look me up on social media.
00:05:44Having grown up watching the block,
00:05:46the girls are aware that withholding information
00:05:48has been a well-established strategy
00:05:50over the past 20 seasons
00:05:52to get an edge on the competition.
00:05:54We don't know what they're doing.
00:05:56They don't know what we're doing.
00:05:57Our evil plan has worked.
00:06:00So we're asking if you guys would mind if we worked forward.
00:06:03How do you get a unanimous yes?
00:06:06Don't tell them all the facts.
00:06:07Don't tell them everything.
00:06:09Nobody knows.
00:06:10I'm a tradesperson and also a qualified tiler.
00:06:12I am a former tiler that haven't told anybody.
00:06:14Everyone else is kind of trying to call their tiler in.
00:06:16I can be in there at 2, 3 in the morning,
00:06:18whatever, getting away with it.
00:06:21We got a real estate agent.
00:06:22Yeah, we spoke to a real estate prior to coming on the show.
00:06:26Are you going to tell your fellow neighbours about that?
00:06:29Well, we're like, you know, it's like a need-to-know basis.
00:06:33But it seems what's good for the goose
00:06:35isn't always good for the gander.
00:06:38I don't know why you'd hide it.
00:06:39There's no need to hide anything.
00:06:42It's just, yeah, it's a weird way to go about it.
00:06:46My thing has always been, OK, you can do whatever you want.
00:06:49Everyone has advantages here, but like, don't lie to my face.
00:06:53Hang on a minute, Mimi.
00:06:55I seem to recall the girls actually did tell you a bit about their experience
00:06:59when they first arrived two weeks ago.
00:07:02There's been a rumour flying around that you guys flip houses.
00:07:07Lol.
00:07:08We have multiple jobs, but we do have investment properties.
00:07:13What?!
00:07:15At your age?
00:07:16Yeah, we started saving when we were really little.
00:07:19Our dad's a mortgage broker, and our parents have always just been
00:07:21super, like, encouraged us to save.
00:07:24So the properties that we're flipping are, like, going for $800,000.
00:07:28I bought a kitchen off Facebook Marketplace,
00:07:30dismantled it from someone else's kitchen,
00:07:32and put it into our property.
00:07:34We don't really see it as a huge advantage,
00:07:37because it's completely different to this.
00:07:39Like, this feels very overwhelming to us still.
00:07:42But I think that that's awesome.
00:07:43We're, like, so happy.
00:07:44If people, like, want to ask questions and stuff,
00:07:46we're so happy to, like, answer them.
00:07:48And so I kind of was like, whatever, let it go, that's fine.
00:07:51And they've told me now.
00:07:53But clearly it wasn't fine, and she didn't let it go.
00:07:56And in fact, Mimi is now at the eye of the storm.
00:08:00Where did the video come from?
00:08:01Mimi sent the video to...
00:08:04Courtney.
00:08:06I did not find this video.
00:08:07The video was, um, shown to me.
00:08:12How did you find it?
00:08:14Secret.
00:08:15Secrets, girls.
00:08:16It's a secret.
00:08:17Our little investigators were out there looking.
00:08:20Our outside source.
00:08:21Who was your outside source?
00:08:22It was the AFP.
00:08:24We hide people to look, because we knew that there was something.
00:08:31Last week was talking with Kylie.
00:08:34When I met her and Hayden, they were out doing some shopping.
00:08:37And Kylie said to me, I need you to do some digging.
00:08:41Bit sus on these new girls.
00:08:43And I said, oh, all right.
00:08:45Did you ask Chelsea to do anything for you?
00:08:48Sure.
00:08:49Probably.
00:08:50I don't know.
00:08:51I don't remember.
00:08:54You don't remember?
00:09:00So I did, and I found a video.
00:09:04We're just going to keep squeezing until it turns grey, and then it's ready to use.
00:09:08I get shown this video, and it's them doing things that I don't know how to do.
00:09:13Why couldn't you have told me this information?
00:09:16What's the benefit of holding back?
00:09:19I don't like that.
00:09:23So I was up at the car, and Maddie and Charlotte came past.
00:09:26And I just took the opportunity to ask them exactly what was on my mind.
00:09:30I was in bed, and they said, we're doing a marathon.
00:09:31Were you in bed still?
00:09:32Marathon.
00:09:33How long did you stay in bed till?
00:09:34I don't know.
00:09:35Eight o'clock?
00:09:36Maybe.
00:09:37I was watching videos of you girls last night.
00:09:39A media outlet did some digging and found that we have done an ad with Seeker Australia.
00:09:48It's all private.
00:09:49I don't know how they found that.
00:09:50It's on YouTube.
00:09:51They weren't diggers.
00:09:52Yeah, but how do they put two and two together?
00:09:54Are you their ambassadors?
00:09:55No.
00:09:57Yeah, I think they danced around it a little bit and were a bit embarrassed and tried explaining
00:10:01this, and they're not affiliated with any brands in any way.
00:10:04And they were just sort of brought in for no good reason.
00:10:07So it didn't explain much at all.
00:10:09Yeah.
00:10:11Yeah, that was pretty funny.
00:10:12I can't believe they found that.
00:10:13I'm like, ew, I don't want people to see that.
00:10:14Anyway, it doesn't matter.
00:10:15Everything's going to come out.
00:10:16I know.
00:10:18I honestly can't read Hayden.
00:10:19I don't know if he wants to know what we do, like, more in detail.
00:10:22The whole situation kind of confuses me.
00:10:24OK, we'll see you soon.
00:10:25See you there.
00:10:26Toodles.
00:10:27Toodles.
00:10:28I haven't watched any videos of Hayden or Rikki.
00:10:30It's like anyone would find a letter by your fascination with me.
00:10:43Wow, like, they'd have to look up to find that stuff.
00:10:47I don't understand that.
00:10:48I feel like...
00:10:49It's kind of a bit rude of us.
00:10:50Yeah, I'd like to know something.
00:10:51Like, I'm happy to tell you, but just ask.
00:10:53You're an invitation.
00:10:56So what do we do about the girl situation?
00:10:58F***ing bore him.
00:10:59I spoke to him.
00:11:00I said, are you the ambassador for Sika?
00:11:03They played it off like it was nothing.
00:11:05Like, oh, this guy just asked us to do it.
00:11:07It was like, I'm so embarrassed that those videos are going around.
00:11:11I'm like, they're on YouTube.
00:11:13I don't even know who they are, let alone all of a sudden they're brand ambassadors
00:11:18and they're doing these ads.
00:11:19And then how many are there of these?
00:11:23They've lied about what background they've got, the experience they've got, and who knows what else.
00:11:29F***.
00:11:45We love challenges, so we were pumped up.
00:11:47It's a good chance to get off the block and have a bit of fun and do something a bit different.
00:11:52And today's challenge will take place right beside Phillip Island's world famous racetrack.
00:11:58Mornin'.
00:11:59G'day, g'day.
00:12:00Hello, hello.
00:12:01Mornin'.
00:12:02I'm sure you clocked our two guns warming up on the Dream Court.
00:12:05Maddie Roche and Steph Reid from the Opals, Australia's women's basketball team.
00:12:11Girls, great to have you with us.
00:12:13Thanks for having us.
00:12:14Thanks for helping us out.
00:12:15Now, Maddie, you won the WNBL Championship this year.
00:12:18That must be very exciting for you.
00:12:20Yeah, it definitely was.
00:12:21It was good fun.
00:12:22Pretty special.
00:12:23And Steph, you debuted for the Opals as well.
00:12:26It was definitely an honour, and to help us qualify for the Olympics was pretty special.
00:12:30Today's challenge, gang, is a basketball game thanks to Ford.
00:12:34So you'll be playing in games of four, each game will go for four minutes.
00:12:37And the two teams that win the most games during the round, Robin, will then have a
00:12:42final Ford shootout for $5,000 cash.
00:12:48We were jacked once we knew exactly what the challenge was.
00:12:51We weren't going to leave anything in the tank for this one.
00:12:54Bali people!
00:13:03It was pretty crazy.
00:13:12And it was very, very clear from the beginning that Hayden and Rikki are very, very good.
00:13:24And they did barge over a couple of people.
00:13:43It was five counter lines, so everyone was going hard.
00:13:51I did not enjoy it at all.
00:13:54Do what you gotta do.
00:14:01After a chaotic round, Robin, the two teams going head to head in the final are Maddie
00:14:06and Charlotte from house one and Rikki and Hayden from house three, making this their
00:14:11second showdown this morning.
00:14:14The first team to score three baskets in a shootout will take home the $5,000 prize.
00:14:19OK, let's go.
00:14:24That's in the net!
00:14:26Here we go.
00:14:30One for the boy.
00:14:35Yes, Charlotte!
00:14:38Come on, Charlotte.
00:14:47This is for the win.
00:14:48How many have I got?
00:14:49How many have I got?
00:14:50Class closed.
00:14:54Go!
00:15:04Good game.
00:15:07Yeah, boys.
00:15:08Yeah, boys.
00:15:10Challenge beasts.
00:15:12$5,000 cash award.
00:15:13You saw how she did us out of the red?
00:15:15The boys won, which rightly so, because they were actually the best.
00:15:20And they were, they were bound to win.
00:15:21They did a great job.
00:15:22Great job.
00:15:22You're a good shooter.
00:15:23♪ See the light where the sky meets the sea ♪
00:15:26♪ It calls my name ♪
00:15:27With the reveal of their guest en-suite
00:15:29is now just hours away,
00:15:31the Blockheads all head back to site
00:15:33and get straight back into it.
00:15:37We get back from the challenge
00:15:38and we kind of see our room coming together.
00:15:41I just got to finish sanding this
00:15:43for our professional painter Mimi
00:15:45to come in and finish the job off.
00:15:47But yeah, just sanding, painting, cleaning, styling.
00:15:50And, you know, we're like, wow,
00:15:52I think we can actually finish early tonight.
00:15:56♪ Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah ♪
00:16:02♪ Oh yeah, yeah, oh yeah ♪
00:16:05The boys are under control.
00:16:06Bathroom's going well.
00:16:09We're definitely going to finish.
00:16:10We're probably not going to finish the en-suite
00:16:12as well as the bathroom this week,
00:16:14but, you know, we've still made really good progress
00:16:17in that en-suite.
00:16:18But when it comes to styling and shoes,
00:16:20we wanted to have as many options as we could.
00:16:22Hello again.
00:16:23Aiden, how are you?
00:16:24So it was wise of me to head out
00:16:26and do the final shopping before the shop's closed.
00:16:29What are you looking for?
00:16:30Oh, just everything silk.
00:16:32This is quite nice.
00:16:34Oh yeah, it's quite nice, yeah.
00:16:36Our three are making bold moves in their guest en-suite,
00:16:39which will feature pops of custard and mustard throughout.
00:16:43Darren's advice was to stop being vanilla
00:16:47and to have a bit of a crack with some colours.
00:16:49So we've got to take a risk here
00:16:50if we're going to be able to compete for a win.
00:16:52There you are.
00:16:54Good to fall.
00:16:55Awesome.
00:16:56I'll see you soon, man.
00:16:56Thanks again, dude.
00:17:00It's our first bathroom on the block.
00:17:03This one's our first official full week
00:17:05with like our own design.
00:17:07And so there is obviously a little bit of pressure there.
00:17:09We've never been judged on a bathroom,
00:17:11so we don't even know what they're looking for this season.
00:17:13The other contestants have,
00:17:14like this is their third round of feedback about bathrooms.
00:17:18So you think by now they would have theirs perfect.
00:17:22Okay, I won't be long.
00:17:24If you need anything, call me.
00:17:26Wanting to do their best to impress the judges,
00:17:28Maddie heads out to pick up some more styling items.
00:17:32Oh gosh, how am I going to decide?
00:17:33They're all so pretty.
00:17:34My strategy when shopping is,
00:17:36I don't really know how this room is going to pull together
00:17:38at the last minute,
00:17:39so I would rather have more options than not.
00:17:43All right, show me.
00:17:44Option two.
00:17:45If I see something that I like
00:17:47and I think I could possibly make it work,
00:17:49I'll just buy it.
00:17:50Of course I have to have four options.
00:17:52That's how I shop.
00:17:55We just need to hurry up.
00:17:56Time is not our friend.
00:18:00On Saturday, we can't have power tools after 3.30.
00:18:03So I was slightly stressing out
00:18:05because we're creeping up to 3.30
00:18:06and we had a lot of work left to do with power tools.
00:18:09What have we got, 40 minutes of tools.
00:18:13Let's keep working, come on.
00:18:15Oh, we are.
00:18:16You're the one calling.
00:18:17You're crushing us.
00:18:1740 minutes.
00:18:18Who the hell are you?
00:18:19I called Madeline, I was like,
00:18:20I need you to come home to help move things along.
00:18:24Hello?
00:18:25Hey, how far away are you?
00:18:28Well, I can come back if you need.
00:18:30Well, I just need you to send the roof, the ceiling.
00:18:34What are you doing?
00:18:35Helping, doesn't matter what I'm doing.
00:18:37Yeah, I know, but I've got to get stuff.
00:18:38So if it's urgent, I can come back.
00:18:41What are you getting?
00:18:41I'm a bit confused.
00:18:43I'm getting styling.
00:18:46Okay, well, it's kind of stressful here
00:18:48and we're on a time crunch.
00:18:49Okay, well, I'll get back as soon as possible,
00:18:50but I just, someone's not very happy.
00:18:55Well, I just don't understand what she's doing.
00:18:57Oh, still shopping.
00:18:59I don't think she sees the value as much in shopping.
00:19:01So I think she thinks I'm just out here having a great time,
00:19:04but I also need to have everything that I need for the room.
00:19:08Otherwise it's going to look unfinished.
00:19:11Make way for my olive tree.
00:19:13I took the whole tree.
00:19:15The bathroom, it's coming together really well.
00:19:17It's a credit to our builders and to the tilers in particular.
00:19:21We're in a good spot.
00:19:23We're in a good spot.
00:19:24Last week I was doing this at like 4am.
00:19:27Exactly.
00:19:27No sleep.
00:19:28So, I mean.
00:19:29You looked a lot scarier then.
00:19:30I think I need a hair tie too.
00:19:32Actually, do you have a hair tie?
00:19:33In house four, after only locking in a tiler yesterday,
00:19:36Carly and Brad have some catching up to do.
00:19:39I never expected to excel this week.
00:19:41Like, we just want to produce a room.
00:19:44A whole day and a half we're behind,
00:19:46but our tiler seems to be really onto it and very precise.
00:19:51Johnny said to us that he was going to bring a third tradie,
00:19:54which we were like, whatever needs to happen,
00:19:56we're okay with because we also want to produce a room.
00:19:59So, we're going to do that.
00:20:00Adding to the pressure,
00:20:01the 3.30 deadline for using power tools is looming
00:20:05and they still haven't finished cutting their tiles.
00:20:08Five.
00:20:09Dan is always there when we're working right up to tools down.
00:20:13Every time.
00:20:15Keep cutting.
00:20:20In house five, Christian and Mumia are all up to speed.
00:20:23They've got a lot of work ahead of them.
00:20:25They've got a lot of work ahead of them.
00:20:26They've got a lot of work ahead of them.
00:20:27They've got a lot of work ahead of them.
00:20:28In house five, Christian and Mumia are also racing
00:20:31to straighten up their shaving cabinet
00:20:33while they can still use power tools.
00:20:35We need to find a bit more.
00:20:37Oh, hold it there.
00:20:41It's going to be loud.
00:20:42Ah!
00:20:46Four minutes.
00:20:49Do you need to do anything else before it cools down?
00:20:51Yeah, that's why I'm doing this, because it's loud.
00:20:53What about the toilet roll?
00:20:54Oh, bleep, bleep, bleep.
00:20:56Literally, bleep, bleep, bleep.
00:20:58Three and a half.
00:21:00We don't need the pressure.
00:21:01Just come when it's done.
00:21:03You got this.
00:21:09Three minutes.
00:21:12What, just one hole?
00:21:13It's two holes.
00:21:14It's two holes.
00:21:15Oh, bleep me.
00:21:18Where's the time?
00:21:20One minute.
00:21:25Good one.
00:21:27All right, egg.
00:21:29Woo!
00:21:29Good call, though.
00:21:30We missed that.
00:21:34That's it.
00:21:35Hey!
00:21:36Hey!
00:21:38Not good.
00:21:40You'll be OK.
00:21:40Down to four, left.
00:21:42What about those ones?
00:21:43Get the ute.
00:21:44Ute's there, let's go.
00:21:45Offside.
00:21:48Are you going to finish?
00:21:49Oh, we'll give it a go.
00:21:52Coming up.
00:21:53Oh, wow.
00:21:55That is, that's a lot.
00:21:57That's a hell of a lot.
00:21:58The guest en-suites leave the judges divided.
00:22:01There's a lot of wins here for me.
00:22:03They're on the money here.
00:22:05They have something special.
00:22:06Yeah, look, for me, it just feels a bit off.
00:22:08I'm not picking up what they're putting down.
00:22:11I think that's a mistake.
00:22:19It's late Saturday afternoon,
00:22:20and with guest en-suites being delivered tomorrow morning,
00:22:23Charlotte is frustrated that Maddie has spent
00:22:25most of the day out shopping.
00:22:30Where is she now?
00:22:32I'm stressing out.
00:22:33I told her, can we try next week,
00:22:35not go shopping on Saturday,
00:22:36because we have a lot of people in our house on Saturday
00:22:39that we need help with.
00:22:40Well, when would you like me to go shopping for that stuff?
00:22:42Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.
00:22:44I'll even let you have Friday.
00:22:45Charlotte, that's not fair.
00:22:48Hello.
00:22:50What you doing?
00:22:51Sanding.
00:22:53I was like, can you go and sand this part of the ceiling?
00:22:56I've done the rest.
00:22:57And she was like, how am I gonna reach the ceiling?
00:22:59And I said, doll, get a ladder.
00:23:02Hey, am I putting another ladder in here?
00:23:05Would you like to jump to the ceiling?
00:23:06Hey, can you, what is your, what is your problem?
00:23:08Well, you're asking stupid questions.
00:23:09You already asked me a lot.
00:23:10Well, how do you expect me to put another ladder in here?
00:23:12Man, I'm gonna leave that up to you.
00:23:14Charlotte, what, what is your problem?
00:23:16She doesn't know how to carry a ladder.
00:23:17Charlotte, that's not fair.
00:23:19Let me speak.
00:23:21Let, I'll put on your makeup.
00:23:25No.
00:23:26I can't carry the ladder.
00:23:29Can you tell her to shut up?
00:23:31I'm telling you there's an urgency to get it done.
00:23:32There is an urgency.
00:23:33Well, then you need to help me by moving the ladder.
00:23:35You can't get your ladder and I'll move it.
00:23:36It's right here.
00:23:37You're, why are you in such a mood?
00:23:40I just needed you to show initiative
00:23:41and not ask silly questions about how do I sand a ceiling.
00:23:44Okay, well then, wait a minute.
00:23:45Maybe get a ladder.
00:23:47You're not getting the sense of urgency.
00:23:48I am, Charlotte.
00:23:49We have all night.
00:23:50We'll be fine.
00:23:51No, we don't, because the corker is coming.
00:23:54Wow, that was so hard to get that passed.
00:23:55Okay, Charlotte, stop being so rude.
00:23:58Then she told us that we did nothing.
00:23:59I did not say that.
00:24:01Ellen, you're literally incapable of walking a ladder.
00:24:03Charlotte, pass me.
00:24:03Why can you not do anything on your own?
00:24:06I did.
00:24:06I did this freaking whole bathroom on my own.
00:24:08Stop being so incapable.
00:24:10Charlotte, without me, there is no room.
00:24:12So if you're having a go at me for going out styling,
00:24:16would you like to win?
00:24:18Because we can deliver a room
00:24:19with no tiles and no styling if you like.
00:24:22I don't think you understand the weight of what I'm carrying.
00:24:25Of course I understand it.
00:24:26No, you don't, because you're telling me
00:24:27not to go shopping, but I have to.
00:24:29On a Saturday.
00:24:30If I had an underwear, I wouldn't go shopping.
00:24:31Just on a Saturday.
00:24:32You can go shopping the other five days of the week.
00:24:33I'd like to see you go shopping next week.
00:24:35You could, we can swap.
00:24:38Okay, fine.
00:24:38You would hate that.
00:24:39No, it would be a disaster.
00:24:40I would come back and she'd be like,
00:24:41oh my gosh, Ellen, what'd you get?
00:24:49♪ I feel the morning on my face ♪
00:24:55♪ Just a light drop, it's been a long day ♪
00:24:59Grant hasn't slept.
00:25:01Granny's fine.
00:25:03I don't know how you're doing it.
00:25:08You need to stay up all night,
00:25:09because you're a hard worker.
00:25:13F*** Grant, I'm sorry, I just f***ed up your paint.
00:25:16Are you for real?
00:25:18Sorry.
00:25:19Where?
00:25:19The door.
00:25:20F*** sake, caught.
00:25:22Okay, I didn't do it on purpose, but...
00:25:26I've been up all f***ing night.
00:25:27Seriously?
00:25:28You're gonna throw a paintbrush?
00:25:30I was rushing, and I was scattered,
00:25:32I've had like no sleep,
00:25:34and I've just scratched off all the paint,
00:25:35and I was like, oh God.
00:25:41I was scared for my life.
00:25:43Just carry one in at a time, maybe.
00:25:44That'll help.
00:25:46Sorry for arguing with you this morning,
00:25:48I think it was the lack of sleep,
00:25:49which got in the way.
00:25:56Morning.
00:25:57How are you guys going tonight?
00:26:00We are going this morning.
00:26:03Did you guys sleep last night?
00:26:04Nope.
00:26:05No sleep.
00:26:08Um, I didn't think it was gonna be done this morning,
00:26:09but now I guess anything's possible.
00:26:11Here we are, so let's make it happen.
00:26:16Look, we're pretty proud of where we're at.
00:26:18Like, a few things that hopefully
00:26:22the judges can see past.
00:26:26Don't lean on the nude coasting.
00:26:28Yeah, don't touch the basin.
00:26:30Don't try the toilet.
00:26:32Oh, isn't she sexy?
00:26:35But we got way further than we ever,
00:26:38and we actually thought we were gonna present
00:26:39just waterproofing.
00:26:42Yahoo!
00:26:43Morning, ladies.
00:26:44Morning.
00:26:45How are we?
00:26:47Very tired.
00:26:49We are on track.
00:26:51We got three hours sleep,
00:26:53and we really just had to do some caulking,
00:26:55some cleaning, a few little bits here and there,
00:27:00which actually always take longer than you expect.
00:27:02Mm-hmm.
00:27:03Thanks.
00:27:07How are you this morning, H?
00:27:09Good.
00:27:11Had some sleep last night.
00:27:13Here comes the wind.
00:27:14Just gotta clean this up, and we're good.
00:27:17Do you like your bathroom?
00:27:20Yeah, we like it.
00:27:20We're just not sure if it's got enough wow factor.
00:27:24I think just after last week's roasting,
00:27:25when we thought we'd present a pretty good kitchen,
00:27:29yeah, it's definitely shot our confidence
00:27:31and our belief of whether we can win a room or not, for sure.
00:27:33Yeah.
00:27:35You got to keep them separated.
00:27:37Tom, can you grab me that other stuff, please?
00:27:40This is the 500th time I've mopped this floor,
00:27:42so let's hope it stays clean.
00:27:46Jesus!
00:27:46Oh, look at that.
00:27:48Touch-up complete.
00:27:51One last tile.
00:27:57Oh, yeah.
00:27:59Come on, let's go.
00:28:00Come on, let's go.
00:28:01Come on, let's go.
00:28:01Come on, let's go.
00:28:02Come on, let's go.
00:28:04Come on.
00:28:07Almost there.
00:28:12Quick, we only got 10 seconds.
00:28:13Oh!
00:28:18Tools down.
00:28:21Wow!
00:28:22Nice, sis.
00:28:24Nice.
00:28:25Yay!
00:28:26Oh, Jesus, I was not expecting it.
00:28:30I'm very happy.
00:28:30I think it's a beautiful bathroom.
00:28:32I'm in the middle.
00:28:33Still a bit uninspired by it,
00:28:35but I would love a 10.
00:28:38So you don't like it,
00:28:38but now you're going to give it a 10?
00:28:40I can't.
00:28:41Have a week, brother.
00:28:43Nice work, mate.
00:28:44Nicely done.
00:28:45We're going down to Aldi to prepare for tonight's-
00:28:48Roasting.
00:28:49Roasting.
00:28:50Even though we've done probably our best bathroom
00:28:53or our best finish yet,
00:28:54we're still prepared for a roasting otherwise.
00:28:58Tools down.
00:29:00I'm proud of you, baby.
00:29:02There's things that we didn't finish.
00:29:03Corking.
00:29:04Yeah, there's heaps of corking.
00:29:05But I love how it's come together.
00:29:08Yeah, I'm happy with how it's come out.
00:29:09It looks really good.
00:29:10Yeah.
00:29:17You all right?
00:29:18I'm broken.
00:29:21I feel broken.
00:29:23We volunteered to do this.
00:29:26We gave up jobs that pay us money.
00:29:31I live for this.
00:29:33My money's good, and I came to win.
00:29:36Scotty.
00:29:37Hello.
00:29:37Frankie.
00:29:38Frankie.
00:29:39Only one of us will make it out alive,
00:29:41and it's not you.
00:29:42Get in the way.
00:29:43It's all right.
00:29:44It's all right.
00:29:44Hi, Scotty.
00:29:45Hello, Scotty.
00:29:46Hello, guys.
00:29:47Hi, Scotty.
00:29:48Hello.
00:29:49Settle down, everybody.
00:29:51Come on, here.
00:29:55Good girl.
00:29:56Good evening, everybody.
00:29:57Good evening, Scotty.
00:29:59What have we got there, boys?
00:30:00Some roast potatoes, mate.
00:30:02We know you can't have a good Sunday night roast
00:30:05without some good veg.
00:30:08Before you roast us, we've got the veg,
00:30:10we've got the meat here.
00:30:11You've got the veg.
00:30:12You're ready to go, boys?
00:30:14The good news is you've done your last bathroom.
00:30:16That is good.
00:30:20Easily the hardest room in your house to do,
00:30:24and they're all done.
00:30:26I bet you when you first came into this competition,
00:30:28you thought, how on earth
00:30:30am I going to build a bathroom in a week?
00:30:32And now you've done three of them.
00:30:35Well.
00:30:35Two and a half.
00:30:36Two and a half.
00:30:37Nearly, mate, nearly.
00:30:38Nearly there.
00:30:39It won't be long.
00:30:40We're getting there.
00:30:41Maddie and Charlotte, your first room on your own
00:30:43without any other input.
00:30:44How'd you go?
00:30:45I think we did good.
00:30:46We made it to Waterproof Wednesday.
00:30:47It's finished.
00:30:48Fantastic, well done.
00:30:49Well, you're all proper blockheads now,
00:30:51but you're a big competitive bunch, aren't you?
00:30:5510,000 bucks from Ford for the best bathroom.
00:30:59Crucial money to win now.
00:31:02Let's find out who that's going to be, shall we?
00:31:19Let's get into it.
00:31:20House one, Maddie and Charlotte.
00:31:25This week was smooth sailing.
00:31:28Yeah, good one.
00:31:32Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:31:33Wow.
00:31:35This is stunning.
00:31:36We technically won in terms of points
00:31:40before the penguin was here.
00:31:41The little Philip was brought out by Kylie and Brad.
00:31:44They stole our win, but they had a beautiful room too,
00:31:48and they won the penguin, so they deserve it.
00:31:50So yeah, it's fair game.
00:31:52This week, we are doing our first bathroom on the block,
00:31:57which is exciting.
00:31:58Walk in here, showerhead coming off that wall.
00:32:01And then this one's our first official full week
00:32:03with our own design.
00:32:05And so there is obviously a little bit of pressure there.
00:32:07And I'm going to work my butt off,
00:32:09but if that's not good enough, then, well, soz.
00:32:13This is a new color that no one's ever used before.
00:32:17So it's not a brushed brass, but it's not brushed nickel.
00:32:21It's like in between, like a champagne kind of color.
00:32:24I would rather have more options than not.
00:32:28See, this is, the coloring is better for this one.
00:32:31I got every color of green towel you could possibly find.
00:32:35Maybe I'll get this dress in case too.
00:32:39We've kept the floor tile consistent
00:32:41with the other bathrooms.
00:32:42We have a vanity that's bringing timber,
00:32:45which is very much us.
00:32:46See, this is the first real look at what you guys
00:32:48are going to deliver for us.
00:32:50Trying to mesh our style with theirs.
00:32:53What was previously done.
00:32:54What's already created.
00:32:55Yeah.
00:33:02I feel like it's a beautiful room.
00:33:04It feels like a holiday home bathroom.
00:33:07That's kind of what we're going for.
00:33:09So I'm excited to hear what the judges have to say about it.
00:33:13Hmm.
00:33:19Smells good.
00:33:24You can see a real shift in style now, can't you?
00:33:27Yeah.
00:33:28We've got a little bit of greenery,
00:33:30but that's the only color in here.
00:33:40It's time for you to decide
00:33:43which contestants you think have created
00:33:44this week's winning room.
00:33:46All you have to do is head to the Block website now
00:33:48to cast your vote.
00:33:50And don't miss the results a little later in the show.
00:33:58Let's get into it.
00:33:59House one, Maddie and Charlotte.
00:34:08You can see a real shift in style now, can't you?
00:34:10Yeah.
00:34:11We've got a little bit of greenery,
00:34:13but that's the only color in here.
00:34:16Everything is completely neutral and textured.
00:34:21And works.
00:34:26It really does.
00:34:27I find that this is a more sophisticated palette
00:34:30to what Jessie and Paige were doing.
00:34:32And so marketable to a very broad range of buyer.
00:34:37It's good.
00:34:41I think the mirror's gorgeous.
00:34:43I love the vanity.
00:34:44I love the marble on the bench top.
00:34:47Maddie did have one small issue,
00:34:49and that was where the toilet was positioned.
00:34:53Having that toilet the moment you walk in,
00:34:55as opposed to being hidden by the vanity,
00:34:58I think they're actually the wrong way around.
00:35:01As judging went on,
00:35:02Darren liked this bathroom more and more.
00:35:06There's really not a lot to fault.
00:35:08I like the tile choices,
00:35:09both in the large format is gorgeous.
00:35:11All the brass detailing.
00:35:14It's a lovely color palette.
00:35:15It's subtle and simple and sophisticated.
00:35:18It's beautiful.
00:35:20Trying to continue the praise.
00:35:22I do love their actual sconces there.
00:35:24They're beautiful.
00:35:25I love the girl's direction,
00:35:26and I'm really glad that they found their own personality,
00:35:29because this is the first space that is truly theirs.
00:35:32So if this is what they're delivering, I'm really happy.
00:35:37And to be the youngest couple we've ever had on the block...
00:35:40Is it true?
00:35:41Yes, and to produce this standard...
00:35:43They're 22 and 24.
00:35:45To produce this standard,
00:35:47I think it's absolutely remarkable.
00:35:50Remarkable.
00:35:52But I feel it's also their experience
00:35:56in doing this in their own lives,
00:35:57and it's really starting to shine through.
00:35:59We see so many people get frazzled on the block,
00:36:02but these guys have just taken it to a duck to water,
00:36:06because this is what they do.
00:36:07Yeah.
00:36:12Shana has come up with a new style name for you, Maddie and Charlotte.
00:36:16The girls inherited the style of modern colonial,
00:36:18and that's what we've been saying.
00:36:20But I'd like to give the girls their own style.
00:36:23And to me, this is classic simplicity.
00:36:28Yeah, and it's shifted for the better.
00:36:29Yeah.
00:36:31That's it. A great start.
00:36:33I'll take that.
00:36:36Just to know that the judges have, like, positive stuff to say
00:36:39fills me with confidence.
00:36:40I'm like, no, I can give this a shot.
00:36:43We're on the right track.
00:36:44Yeah.
00:36:47Uh, house two, Courtney and Grumpy.
00:36:50Hello.
00:36:50Let's do it.
00:36:55As always, this week has been chaotic.
00:36:57You say that every week.
00:36:58Because it always is.
00:37:00I don't see how this is modern-terranian.
00:37:03I particularly don't feel like this kitchen matches
00:37:06the level and quality and sophistication
00:37:09that I have seen in the previous rooms.
00:37:14Upstairs, we wanted to create a second main bedroom area
00:37:18with an en-suite.
00:37:19So to get that larger en-suite,
00:37:21we've taken a bit from the office.
00:37:23I want to do, like, a striped shower,
00:37:25so that it's a little bit more natural.
00:37:27I want to do, like, a striped shower,
00:37:29so the stripes kind of come down the wall, go on the bench,
00:37:32and then that's a feature in the shower.
00:37:35I'm trying to keep it a little bit consistent
00:37:37with what we did in the last one.
00:37:39Similar cabinetry.
00:37:40We've got the Nude Co. basins and sand colour.
00:37:43And then the flooring, we're just going to do, like,
00:37:45a travertine-look floor.
00:37:48It sounds really intense, but I think it's going to work.
00:37:51Terracotta and, like, this bone-coloured tile,
00:37:53which is going to be striped.
00:37:54Yeah, it'll pop out nice.
00:37:56Yeah.
00:37:57First prize goes to the green and white stripes.
00:38:02Yay!
00:38:04We won!
00:38:05Bonus point for you as well.
00:38:07We won a penguin.
00:38:09This is our first challenge that we won.
00:38:12It'll go one way or another.
00:38:13It could, couldn't it?
00:38:14Yeah, I'm nervous about it.
00:38:15A little bit 80s.
00:38:16We'd love a reef.
00:38:17I do love a stripe,
00:38:19and we've got stripes in some of the other rooms.
00:38:20I'm like, oh, we can tie that in a little bit.
00:38:22Sure.
00:38:23If anyone can make it work, you can, Courtney.
00:38:27♪ When I put my love ♪
00:38:30♪ Do I waste my time to do what it does? ♪
00:38:34I want Marty to walk in and say,
00:38:37you guys are back.
00:38:38They've used their stone,
00:38:40and it's more Mediterranean than ever.
00:38:42They're back, baby.
00:38:43That's all I want to hear.
00:38:44They're back, baby.
00:38:45Here's a 10.
00:38:45You're going to dinner with Scotty.
00:38:47That'd be the perfect scenario.
00:38:54Whoa.
00:38:57Boom.
00:38:58Hit them.
00:39:00Boom.
00:39:03Wow.
00:39:04This is full on.
00:39:08But,
00:39:10is it for the right reasons?
00:39:15This marble and the vanity is probably the only thing
00:39:20that I'm loving about this bathroom.
00:39:23Because it's much bigger than house one.
00:39:26So they've taken space out of a second living room.
00:39:30So I think that fundamentally,
00:39:32doing that is a massive error
00:39:34from a real estate perspective.
00:39:39Then, when I look at everything that they've done,
00:39:42being Mediterranean,
00:39:44I feel that this is just pushing it too far.
00:39:47That will not translate well into a marketing campaign.
00:39:50I feel like, you know when you drive into Phillip Island
00:39:52and you go past that kid's maze?
00:39:57This is like walking into the Phillip Island maze
00:40:00and I absolutely hate it.
00:40:06Oh.
00:40:09What do you really think?
00:40:11Exactly that, Shaina.
00:40:12Exactly that.
00:40:15For me, it's just, it's a miss.
00:40:17And this is now two weeks in a row
00:40:20where Grumpy and Courtney are actually
00:40:22making me a bit grumpy.
00:40:23I'm not picking up what they're putting down.
00:40:26Anyway, I've said my piece.
00:40:27Yes, I'll let you go, Darren,
00:40:29because I'm still trying to take it all in myself.
00:40:31Which is a problem, no matter how a buyer feels.
00:40:36You could open any number of magazines right now
00:40:40and see that.
00:40:42It's hot.
00:40:43It looks awesome.
00:40:46It's so good and so exciting.
00:40:48It'll look fantastic on a marketing campaign.
00:40:51It'll look fantastic on a marketing brochure.
00:40:54Yeah.
00:40:56Shaina was incredibly torn.
00:40:58Well, it definitely has impact.
00:41:00I do have to agree for a secondary en suite.
00:41:03This is such a waste of space.
00:41:05It's too much.
00:41:06But visually, to me, this is incredibly unique.
00:41:10The people that appreciate beauty
00:41:13will appreciate this house.
00:41:14This is in a league of its own.
00:41:18But for me today, this is form over function.
00:41:21I think this floor plan is a big mistake in layout.
00:41:23It's a big mistake in the real estate
00:41:25they've taken from the living space.
00:41:27I'm going to stand by their design choice,
00:41:30but I'm not gonna stand by their floor plan choice.
00:41:33Marty's major concern is about polarising buyers.
00:41:37It's about having a lot of bidders on auction day.
00:41:39The first few weeks, they really did coin Mediterranean.
00:41:44But I think now it has come off course
00:41:46and it's not feeling at that same level of sophistication
00:41:50and it's starting to just get a little gimmicky for me.
00:41:54Darren disagreed on that.
00:41:57He thinks aesthetically, House 2 is the most coherent home
00:42:01on the block this year.
00:42:03This is absolutely one of the most beautifully finished,
00:42:06luxurious, design-centric homes
00:42:10that I've seen on the block ever.
00:42:13And it is definitely my favourite on this season.
00:42:17They've swung hard for a designer market here
00:42:21and they have struck it out of the park.
00:42:25Mixed feedback from our judges. That's it, though.
00:42:27Thanks, buddy. Thank you.
00:42:29That was disappointing. That was really disappointing.
00:42:32Yeah, not the way we expected it to go. Yeah.
00:42:35I'm still really proud of what we produced. For sure.
00:42:37And I still think it's a very sellable bathroom.
00:42:46♪ You're like an empress
00:42:49♪ You've got fire running down your cheeks
00:42:52It's roast time.
00:42:54Have you had the oven on, mate? We're ready.
00:42:56We're ready for it.
00:42:57180, fan-forced. Perfect. Pre-heated.
00:43:04This week was better than last week.
00:43:06That's true.
00:43:10We always say the kitchen is the heart of the home
00:43:12and this heart needs a little bit of a defibrillator.
00:43:16Probably not the feedback you're expecting or hoping for, boys.
00:43:18That's it, fellas. Sorry. I like your kitchen.
00:43:21APPLAUSE
00:43:23Yeah, it's definitely savage working your butt off
00:43:25to get a roasting on a Sunday night.
00:43:28It's a small space to work with, so we're going to try not to overcrowd it.
00:43:31Sort of a less is more type of bathroom.
00:43:34I'm going to feature subway tile, a nice big round mirror
00:43:37and try and mix it up with a little bit of colour.
00:43:40It's a lot of...a lot of yellow tiles.
00:43:43You want to go bold? Go bold.
00:43:45Go hard or go home.
00:43:49So, we're going a nice pastel, sort of daffodil yellow tile.
00:43:54We got absolutely hammered last week for styling,
00:43:56so confidence is low.
00:43:57But been leaning on some experts around me
00:43:59and hopefully this week we'll turn it around.
00:44:04Vanity and Basin, we've gone a little bit more colour pop.
00:44:06Ooh, it's like a buttercup or something, is it?
00:44:09What do you call it? A custard? Marigold custard.
00:44:11Nuko custard. There you go. Yeah, that's cool.
00:44:13Yeah, and I'm desperate to win a bathroom, Shell,
00:44:15cos I've been doing bathrooms for 16 years now.
00:44:17And I'd love to be able to say that I went and did a bathroom
00:44:20on the block and won, so desperate to get a win.
00:44:22♪ Bring the lion out, bring the, bring the lion out
00:44:26♪ Bring the lion out, bring the, bring the lion out
00:44:29We nailed it this week. The finish was elite.
00:44:33You can't really fault the room,
00:44:34so I think what it's going to come down to this week
00:44:36is whether the judges like our bowl, our custard tart.
00:44:39Yeah, sorry. We just want to be better than last week.
00:44:48Wow. Ooh. Wow.
00:44:50Bit of yellow.
00:44:58This is a good layer. Great layer.
00:45:02That's a really nice, expansive shower.
00:45:06We have the toilet in an appropriate position.
00:45:10Nice, big vanity with lots of space on either side.
00:45:14Beautiful nude basin.
00:45:17Look at that. Look at that form.
00:45:18Yeah. That's a really gorgeous shape.
00:45:20I love that.
00:45:21That's cool. Very cool.
00:45:23Oh, I like that.
00:45:26Great design decisions in here.
00:45:28This is a really, really exciting room.
00:45:31And I'm really proud of the boys for their styling,
00:45:34cos I feel like they have listened
00:45:36and they've played around and balanced.
00:45:39So I feel like they've upped the ante in their shapes,
00:45:43their connection, in their layout.
00:45:44I think there's a lot of good, good things in here.
00:45:49There are just a couple of things for me.
00:45:52I feel like the yellows are clashing.
00:45:56Because you look at that and that, that is a cool yellow,
00:45:59that's a warm yellow.
00:46:01And that yellow and that yellow work together.
00:46:04Maybe repaint the inside of the door
00:46:06to match the tile colour was their suggestion.
00:46:10I really like the layout.
00:46:11I really can't fault them.
00:46:13The materiality, it's a bit of a sway
00:46:15from the masculine sort of rooms that we've seen.
00:46:17So it's got a little bit more femininity, which I really like.
00:46:20LAUGHTER
00:46:22That's all I'd say. That's all I'd...
00:46:25Is it an amazing bathroom that gets the senses going?
00:46:29No. But is it marketable to a large range of buyers?
00:46:33Yes, it is.
00:46:35Marty Fix, the circles are becoming a theme in your house
00:46:38and it's quite subtle and makes the house cohesive.
00:46:42The circle in the ceiling in the main bedroom,
00:46:45the circles in the bathrooms,
00:46:47even their island bench top in the kitchen,
00:46:49everything was circular.
00:46:50So, you know, they've got their own little quirky style
00:46:54that they're running with and it's actually working for them.
00:46:58I like the materials palette. I like the tile decisions.
00:47:01It's well finished and it's been nicely painted.
00:47:05I feel like the boys' natural style has a sense of play in it
00:47:10and I think they need to embrace that
00:47:12and I think they could have something really fun
00:47:15and really popular and really saleable.
00:47:18I'd say a big tick to the boys
00:47:19because we were very hard on them last week
00:47:22and I think they've done a great job and they've finished a bathroom.
00:47:24And it's finished. Yes.
00:47:26I'm so happy for them. Yeah.
00:47:28Well, that wasn't a roasting, boys. That's it.
00:47:29That's it. Yay!
00:47:32I think we're on now. Yeah.
00:47:34I think we're delivering quality spaces.
00:47:36I think that Hayden's starting to nail his design
00:47:39and his style choices.
00:47:41So, you know, kudos to H for doing that.
00:47:53OK, Kylie and Brad, a big week last week,
00:47:58taking out the win with your amazing black kitchen.
00:48:01Let's see how you go this week.
00:48:06Um, I don't like bathrooms.
00:48:12What we were sort of looking at trying to achieve
00:48:15with the guest bathroom
00:48:18was just somewhere that is, like, a little bit more of a getaway.
00:48:21Like, a little bit more of, like, maybe, like, a sauna
00:48:23or, like, a little bit more of a day spa.
00:48:25All right, door, toilet.
00:48:27Toilet will be this way cos we can't put it that way.
00:48:29Shower. Yeah.
00:48:31I am dabbling in a little bit of colour.
00:48:34The basin, it's sort of a dusty pink.
00:48:37Oh, lovely. A blush pink.
00:48:38Yeah.
00:48:41So I've got a great piece of art and it's, you know,
00:48:43this, like, moody woman that I actually think is a bit like me.
00:48:46And she's got this, like, electric black, smoky eye.
00:48:49And she's stroking a fish. And she's stroking a fish.
00:48:53We don't have a Tyler.
00:48:54Guess what? Approved.
00:48:56Approved. Without a Tyler.
00:48:58But you don't have a Tyler. No.
00:48:59Do you know of anyone?
00:49:03So we're still sticking with the original deckton floor
00:49:05up to pretty much where the panelling is. Wow.
00:49:08And then we're going to do the timber tile
00:49:10right to the ceiling in the shower.
00:49:12And now we've finally got a Tyler on the way.
00:49:14House number four we've got to find, yeah?
00:49:17So they started tiling at two o'clock on Friday afternoon.
00:49:21Like, I want the judges to still recognise
00:49:24that we're trying to evolve,
00:49:26but we're also still bringing in the same
00:49:29of what we've done in previous bathrooms as well.
00:49:32I just want top five.
00:49:33That'd be good.
00:49:35Top five.
00:49:38Oh, wow.
00:49:40That's... That's a lot.
00:49:42That's... That's a lot.
00:49:44That's a lot.
00:49:45That's a lot.
00:49:46That's a lot.
00:49:47That's a lot.
00:49:48That's a lot.
00:49:50Whoo!
00:49:52That's a hell of a lot.
00:49:58This is exactly what I thought Kylie and Brad
00:50:02were aiming for in their very first bathroom.
00:50:06This is the right bathroom for this house.
00:50:09Darren would really like the use of the timberlook tiles
00:50:12going all the way up that vast ceiling in the shower.
00:50:16I think that it's encapsulated that shower space so beautifully
00:50:21and it needs this balance, it needs that softness.
00:50:24Even if it's not a real timber,
00:50:26I think it's a really beautiful use of this tile.
00:50:29So I really, really like it.
00:50:33Marty, however, isn't a big fan of materials masquerading
00:50:37as something else.
00:50:40I think that's a mistake.
00:50:42That's a mistake.
00:50:44Using the timberlook tile is not what I would have done.
00:50:48And I think the buyers, after seeing that kitchen,
00:50:50will feel that this is a totally different level
00:50:52when they come upstairs.
00:50:54And it's not a level up, it's a level down.
00:50:57Wow, we're all going to battle on this one.
00:51:00To me, this nude co-column basin is the hero
00:51:04and it adds this impact of colour and softness.
00:51:08It's beautiful.
00:51:10I love this art choice.
00:51:12And I love the fact that they haven't tiled the whole thing
00:51:14and they've done this board here which looks fantastic,
00:51:16the Hardy group.
00:51:18My only problem is I would have taken the deck down
00:51:21all the way through to the shower because it breaks it up.
00:51:25But I think it's so much more sophisticated.
00:51:28I feel like they've grown in their sophistication from week one.
00:51:32Will everyone love it? I don't think so.
00:51:34But to me, there's a lot of wins here for me.
00:51:39Yeah, look, for me it just feels a bit off.
00:51:43I think it's better than the first bathroom.
00:51:46The layout's good.
00:51:48Yes, it will shoot well.
00:51:50I can appreciate the basin, but it seems a bit random.
00:51:53It just seems to be sort of plonked there.
00:51:56And I do like the fact that they've got the Hardy group here,
00:51:59but I don't know if the colour is right.
00:52:03Marty wondered how it is you managed to deliver a kitchen
00:52:07last week finished to perfection and then a bathroom this week
00:52:11that isn't fully grouted.
00:52:13Is the grouting not done?
00:52:15Not in the shower.
00:52:17It's missing its grouting.
00:52:19The finishes aren't there and they really stand out.
00:52:22So it's hard to feel like you're in a completed room
00:52:26when it's just not.
00:52:28What happened?
00:52:30We had a couple of unfortunate occurrences with toilets,
00:52:34so we were lucky to even get a toilet this week.
00:52:37Rightio.
00:52:39I've just got one tip for Carly and Brad,
00:52:41is attention to fine detail.
00:52:44Because I keep going to the Column Basin as the hero
00:52:47because that's what it is.
00:52:49It's the bright, shining light in this room.
00:52:51I'm looking at the shampoo and conditioner in this lolly pink
00:52:55and it detracts from what the basin is doing.
00:52:58If you've got a hero, leave it alone.
00:53:00You don't have to match it with anything else.
00:53:03The finishing, Darren Palmer said,
00:53:05there's a lot to love in this room.
00:53:08They're in the game now.
00:53:10This look and this style sets them apart from the other houses.
00:53:14It defines this house.
00:53:16They've done this beautifully in terms of the materials palette
00:53:19and linking those spaces together.
00:53:21They're on the money here.
00:53:23They have something special, they really do.
00:53:26I 100% agree.
00:53:28That's it, well done.
00:53:30APPLAUSE
00:53:34Couldn't ask for better than that.
00:53:47OK, here we go, Christian and Mimi.
00:53:54This week started off a nightmare and ended up OK.
00:53:59This is our last wet room.
00:54:03We're doing the guest en suite, which is downstairs for us.
00:54:06And it is a small bathroom,
00:54:08compared to the ones that we've already done.
00:54:11To be honest, I'm feeling really uninspired.
00:54:14I have design block and I have no idea what to do.
00:54:18Ah!
00:54:20OK, I'm going to go floor to ceiling.
00:54:22I'm going to do this entire wall a feature tile.
00:54:25We've done floor to ceiling tiles everywhere
00:54:27in all of our other bathrooms.
00:54:29I thought, why don't we just do that again?
00:54:31Because it's such a teeny-weeny bathroom.
00:54:35Can we try the same stone that we had in the first bathroom?
00:54:38We kept all of our tapware consistent.
00:54:40We've used the same vanity in different colours
00:54:42in all three bathrooms that we've done.
00:54:44Different colours, different stones.
00:54:46Yeah, I think that's cool.
00:54:48You keep it consistent, but then you change it up a little bit.
00:54:51Wow! Amazing. OK, we'll do that.
00:54:54We're definitely going to make waterproof Wednesday.
00:54:56Waterproof Wednesday!
00:55:00We just thought, if this can service the pool,
00:55:02we think about doing a little shower out here as well.
00:55:04When you go to the beach,
00:55:05you can use this as an entryway to the house.
00:55:07That's a good idea. A bit of a tropical mudroom.
00:55:10Yes, exactly.
00:55:11Coming back from that, you can call it a sandroom.
00:55:13Yeah. There you go.
00:55:14Do you like that? That's a good idea.
00:55:16Thank you. I just made that up. There you go.
00:55:18There you go.
00:55:28I'm happy with the room.
00:55:30I just don't go in there and I'm like,
00:55:32oh, my God!
00:55:33I have the opposite feeling.
00:55:35You said it was his favourite bathroom.
00:55:37I actually think it's one of my favourite ones that we've done.
00:55:48Shoes.
00:55:52Now, this is what I like.
00:55:57This is clean, marketable.
00:56:00It's just so well put together.
00:56:03Shona praised the colour choices throughout the room.
00:56:07I love the beautiful blue and green,
00:56:09and they've done, you know, the blue basin
00:56:11and they've done the green in the vanity.
00:56:13But she felt there was something about this off-centre ceiling panelling
00:56:17that's disconnected.
00:56:19I love it.
00:56:20I liked it in the other room because it balanced
00:56:22with the way the vanity went.
00:56:24I'm just sort of like, it feels a bit odd
00:56:27because it's off-centre to the vanity.
00:56:29If you're going to do it, you have to line it up with something.
00:56:32It just doesn't line up with anything here.
00:56:36I really dislike it.
00:56:37Dislike?
00:56:39I really don't like it.
00:56:41It's an inclusion for the sake of an inclusion
00:56:44that doesn't relate to anything else,
00:56:46and I just have a problem with it.
00:56:48It makes the room imbalanced.
00:56:51See, for me, it actually warms up the room,
00:56:53and I really like it.
00:56:56It tells the story of the house
00:56:58because it's consistent with all the other bathrooms,
00:57:00and buyers do love consistency.
00:57:03He's all about the real estate, Marty Fox.
00:57:05He's all about selling.
00:57:07Darren thinks that there is a lot to like in this bathroom.
00:57:10I like the consistency.
00:57:12I like that on their marketing brochure,
00:57:14on their website, on social media,
00:57:16that it's going to look like each room belongs to each other.
00:57:18The bathrooms belong to the bedrooms,
00:57:20the bedrooms belong to the kitchen,
00:57:22the kitchens belong to these bathrooms.
00:57:24I like that they have tweaked each colour palette as well.
00:57:27It's not the same as the other bathrooms.
00:57:29This is that teal green.
00:57:31But there are details in here that I don't love.
00:57:35I think the basin's too big.
00:57:37There should have been more bench space.
00:57:39You then notice that the mirror is not installed properly.
00:57:42It's not even level.
00:57:45Oh, my gosh.
00:57:47It's actually not in properly.
00:57:49That's very wonky.
00:57:51See, the attention to detail and fixing,
00:57:53that's actually not straight.
00:57:55He thinks that it seems like your attention to detail
00:57:58is a bit off this week.
00:58:00And I'm underwhelmed by this aesthetic
00:58:05purely because I have seen it before in this house.
00:58:12Shona agreed, saying she thinks this bathroom
00:58:15is a bit too formulaic for the competition.
00:58:19It's not exciting me because I've seen them do it.
00:58:22It's rinse, lather, repeat.
00:58:24Is it a wow factor? Absolutely not.
00:58:26Does it work? Absolutely yes.
00:58:28Is it consistent? 100%.
00:58:31But what does excite me is their consistency
00:58:35because come auction week,
00:58:38I want to see a house that actually fits in its whole
00:58:41and not have rooms that are jarring.
00:58:44And I find that House 5 really has nailed their consistency.
00:58:48They've delivered something saleable
00:58:50and something that is desirable,
00:58:52but there's just little things, I think,
00:58:55that go against this otherwise very nice room.
00:59:00Very nice. Very nice.
00:59:02But is nice going to be good enough
00:59:04to win week 7 on the block?
00:59:06That's it. Scores.
00:59:12I've said the whole week, this room has me felt lacklustre.
00:59:16But it's just I was uninspired and I knew it.
00:59:19Our builder called it hump week, but yeah.
00:59:23Yeah, I think I was feeling it.
00:59:25I feel like a camel's trotted on my head.
00:59:27A camel? Yeah, hump.
00:59:29Oh, OK.
00:59:40OK, scores, here we go.
00:59:42Darren Palmer, Maddy and Charlotte.
00:59:45It's a lovely colour palette.
00:59:47It's subtle and simple and sophisticated.
00:59:50It's beautiful.
00:59:53It's poo.
00:59:56You're kidding.
00:59:58It's bloody dumb.
01:00:00It's ballet.
01:00:02Courtney and Grumpy.
01:00:04You could open any number of magazines right now and see that.
01:00:12Ricky and Hayden.
01:00:14Great design decisions in here.
01:00:16This is a really, really exciting room.
01:00:21Yeah, good idea.
01:00:23Colin and Brad.
01:00:25This look and this style sets them apart from the other houses.
01:00:28They're on the money.
01:00:34Is it a six? I don't know.
01:00:36It's about a seven.
01:00:40Christian and Mimi.
01:00:42I like the consistency.
01:00:44I like that on their marketing brochure
01:00:46that it's going to look like each room belongs to each other.
01:00:51There we go.
01:00:53Is that your first nine, boys?
01:00:55Second. Second.
01:00:57We'll take it. You'll take it.
01:00:59Who's counting?
01:01:02Me.
01:01:04Maddy Fox.
01:01:06Here we go, Maddy and Charlotte.
01:01:08This is a more sophisticated palette to what Jessie and Paige were doing
01:01:12and so marketable to a very broad range of buyer.
01:01:17Maddy and Maddy.
01:01:19You never want to take your breath away.
01:01:21Courtney and Grumpy.
01:01:23This is like walking into the Phillip Island maze.
01:01:26It's an optical illusion and I absolutely hate it.
01:01:35I don't think we'll be using our bathroom this week.
01:01:38Ricky and Hayden.
01:01:40Is it an amazing bathroom? No.
01:01:43But is it marketable to a large range of buyers?
01:01:46Yes, it is.
01:01:53I'm all set, Jamie.
01:01:58Connie and Brad.
01:02:00It's missing its grouting.
01:02:02The finishes aren't there and they really stand out.
01:02:10Christian and Mimi.
01:02:12Now this is what I like.
01:02:15This is clean, marketable.
01:02:21Oi, oi, oi.
01:02:23Rightio. Phil's available.
01:02:26It's a definite. Not today. Not today.
01:02:28Not today. I think I've been eating the roast.
01:02:31Shayna Blaze, Maddy and Charlotte.
01:02:35I love the girls' direction
01:02:37and I'm really glad that they've found their own personality.
01:02:40Courtney and Grumpy.
01:02:42For a secondary en suite, this is such a waste of space.
01:02:46It's too much.
01:02:52Ricky and Hayden.
01:02:54I feel like they've upped the ante
01:02:57in their shapes, their connection, in their layout.
01:03:00Connie and Brad.
01:03:02Will everyone love it? I don't think so.
01:03:04But to me, there's a lot of wins here for me.
01:03:08Christian and Mimi.
01:03:10Is it a wow factor? Absolutely not.
01:03:12Does it work? Absolutely yes.
01:03:16OK, here we go.
01:03:18Winner of week seven on the blog, Bathroom Week,
01:03:21and taking home 10,000 bucks from Ford is...
01:03:23Here we go.
01:03:28Maddy and Charlotte.
01:03:34I'm so excited.
01:03:36I still don't believe it.
01:03:38This is not ours.
01:03:40I'm like, we won a room on the block.
01:03:42This is something that we used to watch on TV
01:03:44and now we're actually won.
01:03:46Well done.
01:03:58Oh, mate.
01:04:00I guess there's some people you just don't get along with
01:04:02and they rubbed us up the wrong way.
01:04:04So I don't trust them.
01:04:06They put up a great front,
01:04:08but we know there's something brewing.
01:04:13Maddy and Charlotte scored 27.5 points
01:04:15from the judges for their guest en suite.
01:04:18There was no roast for house three this week,
01:04:21with the boys taking out second place on 25 points.
01:04:24Third place was tied
01:04:26with both Christian and Mimi and Kylie and Brad
01:04:29on 24.5 points.
01:04:31And Courtney and Grant's bold design choice
01:04:33didn't quite pay off,
01:04:35coming in last place on 24 points.
01:04:39Congratulations, girls.
01:04:41First room on your own,
01:04:43and you take out the win. That must feel great.
01:04:45Yeah, it does.
01:04:47And you're going to have a fantastic Ford getaway
01:04:49with me tomorrow night.
01:04:51I've got some very special guests
01:04:53and some very special surprises as well.
01:04:55You are going to love it.
01:04:58I'm like, they liked it,
01:05:00and we won.
01:05:02And technically we kind of won last week too,
01:05:04so I'm like, two weeks in a row?
01:05:06By score, it was two weeks in a row by the judges.
01:05:08That makes me so happy.
01:05:10It gives me so much more confidence
01:05:12because that really is our style, that room up there.
01:05:14Yeah.
01:05:15Now, gang, next week is going to be a huge one.
01:05:19So get some rest and get prepared.
01:05:23Good luck. Good night. See you.
01:05:25Thanks, buddies.
01:05:28Congrats, girls.
01:05:30No roasting.
01:05:32No roasting? I'm proud of you boys.
01:05:36It was our lowest score to date,
01:05:38obviously coming last.
01:05:40The more the weeks go on, the less confident I am.
01:05:43It seems like we started really high,
01:05:45and it's just starting to slide.
01:05:47Yeah.
01:05:48Hey, relax.
01:05:50Don't worry about it.
01:05:52I know, but I'm just like, you do all these all-nighters
01:05:54and then you just feel ****.
01:05:56It'll be all right. It'll be all right.
01:05:58It'll be worth it in the end.
01:06:00Sorry.
01:06:02Kylie and Brad didn't, like, clap
01:06:04or didn't have any kind of response.
01:06:06Like, the common decency to, like, be a good sport
01:06:09would have been nice.
01:06:11You're telling me the girls have a winning bathroom?
01:06:15Their first actual room and it wins?
01:06:18It was only Kylie and Brad who didn't say congratulations.
01:06:20Everyone else said congratulations.
01:06:22But to have someone completely ignore you,
01:06:25not even crack a smile, that is, like, a bit hurtful
01:06:28because, like, what have I done to get that kind of response,
01:06:31you know?
01:06:33I think they're the most hated people on the block at the moment.
01:06:35Yeah, literally.
01:06:37So I just have to lose every week just to be friends with you?
01:06:39No, I don't know. I think...
01:06:41I think they're the most overly warm.
01:06:43We have no idea who the **** these girls are.
01:06:46Oh, well, if people can't be happy for us,
01:06:49then that's not my problem.
01:06:52Next week...
01:06:54Ha-ha!
01:06:56It's a very, very important room to get right.
01:06:58Living and dining brings some of the biggest rooms
01:07:00we've ever seen on the block.
01:07:02I'm nervous for this week, to be honest. It's a massive room.
01:07:04Whoever wins this week is whoever finishes.
01:07:06I have to put in a light order. I have to look for lights.
01:07:08I have to look for the TV unit.
01:07:11Why?!
01:07:13Issues with materials causes major setbacks.
01:07:16There's no plaster.
01:07:18It's touch and go whether we get something today or not.
01:07:20It is an absolute disaster.
01:07:22They need to be plastering yesterday.
01:07:25Also, this year's sisters meet last year's all-stars,
01:07:29Liberty and Eliza.
01:07:31You look so much nicer than what we used to look like.
01:07:34Yeah, yeah.
01:07:36Just to hang out with them, it was so fun.
01:07:38And when the rooms are revealed...
01:07:42It's unbelievable.
01:07:44Our Phillip Island is this.
01:07:46The winner will be rolling in it.
01:07:49A $30,000 week? Wow!
01:07:52Woo-hoo!
01:07:54Our room reveal galleries are now open for inspection
01:07:57exclusively at the block website.
