00:00:00Welcome to the block.
00:00:07Bondi.
00:00:09We're in Manly.
00:00:11Hi, I'm Scott Cam.
00:00:13Welcome back to the great city of Melbourne.
00:00:17Get a load of this.
00:00:21Oh dear.
00:00:23Australia's favourite renovating show.
00:00:25Now that's awkward.
00:00:27This is going to be the biggest block ever.
00:00:30Welcome to the block.
00:00:32Welcome to the block.
00:00:40The block is one of the greatest things that have ever happened to us.
00:00:45The block family is real.
00:00:47Like they're your friends for life.
00:00:49It truly has changed our lives.
00:01:08Oh my goodness.
00:01:13This is beautiful.
00:01:19Diamonds are made under pressure.
00:01:21This is one shimmering diamond.
00:01:26Absolutely blown away.
00:01:44Yes!
00:01:49Yes!
00:01:58Welcome to the block.
00:02:00Season 20, episode 901.
00:02:04Buckle up everyone, because this year we're going island-like.
00:02:20The block 2024 is situated on the idyllic family holiday location of Phillip Island,
00:02:26just a short drive from Melbourne.
00:02:33To keep with the idyllic family holiday vibe,
00:02:38we bought a run-down resort with eight two-bedroom holiday villas.
00:02:44Make it brighter for me.
00:02:48It also comes with a tennis court, a pool and a clubhouse.
00:02:56The plan is to take two existing holiday villas
00:02:59and join them together to make houses one, two, three and four.
00:03:04These will become four-bedroom, five-bathroom mega family holiday homes
00:03:09with plunge pools.
00:03:11While house five, an existing two-storey home,
00:03:14will create yet another mega holiday home.
00:03:19Hard it's fair to say that today,
00:03:22as our eager contestants prepare to see it for the first time...
00:03:25Whoo!
00:03:27Yeah!
00:03:28Yeah!
00:03:31..this idyllic family holiday location is more like...
00:03:38..a zombie apocalypse.
00:03:42ZOMBIE GROANS
00:03:50You can't make an omelette without breaking a few eggs,
00:03:53which is what we've done here,
00:03:55as the original houses have been ripped apart
00:03:58and the pieces used to create new structures for the contestants' arrival.
00:04:03DRAMATIC MUSIC
00:04:08Now, that's a little over the top.
00:04:18Location sorted. Tick.
00:04:23Now for this season's blockheads.
00:04:26Meet Jessie and Paige.
00:04:28I'm so happy we're down near the coast.
00:04:31I know.
00:04:32Super relaxed, a bit more like home.
00:04:34Phillip Island, the hustle and bustle of Melbourne,
00:04:36is just not us WA people, is it? In the past.
00:04:40Here are some fun facts about this photogenic duo.
00:04:44They are from Perth, WA.
00:04:47Jessie is 29 years old and a carpenter,
00:04:50a very handy skill on this show.
00:04:52Do a wheelie.
00:04:54That was shocking.
00:04:56That was my best one yet, I reckon.
00:04:58He carries an unshakeable confidence,
00:05:00a calm and strategic mind,
00:05:02honed by years of working on luxury homes.
00:05:05We're coming up to a house I recently finished end of last year,
00:05:09and obviously the carpentry work was epic.
00:05:11It was a late ride with the dumb bike, tell us.
00:05:14Dumb bike me.
00:05:16Paige is 27 and a claims specialist.
00:05:19I can very much assure you that we're taking yours very seriously, Ryan.
00:05:22She is also very confident.
00:05:25Do it again now.
00:05:27Baby, baby, ain't nothing but mammals,
00:05:30so let's do it like they do on the Discovery Channel.
00:05:33Do it. Do it for me now.
00:05:35Especially when it comes to her Renault style.
00:05:38I love this house.
00:05:40Like an elevated, like, coastal grandma sort of vibe, you know?
00:05:45OK then, more on that later.
00:05:49These two fell in love at first sight.
00:05:52We met in 2017.
00:05:54I saw Paige walk out of the toilet
00:05:56and I think I spoke to her about two hours later
00:05:58and I was busting for the toilet.
00:06:00They got engaged just under a year ago
00:06:03and up until this very moment have lived a fairytale life.
00:06:09And they're setting out on this journey
00:06:11with an impressive dose of confidence.
00:06:13I think when I crossed that bridge over onto Phillip Island,
00:06:16I was like, game on.
00:06:18We're going to be under control here.
00:06:20I want to be the first one to finish each week
00:06:22and walk around to people's houses and be like,
00:06:25do you guys want a hand? I'm finished over there. Done.
00:06:30You don't actually understand how much of a rollercoaster it is.
00:06:33I hate it. I just feel like I'm failing.
00:06:35You're not failing. It's OK.
00:06:37It doesn't feel OK for me.
00:06:40You're obviously adamant about it, but I couldn't disagree more.
00:06:43No stress. Good luck with it, OK?
00:06:45Thank you. Cheers.
00:06:47Obviously he's a great, accomplished architect,
00:06:50but I actually don't give a f*** about his opinion.
00:06:53Paige, come on.
00:06:55Stop saying come on.
00:06:57It's not happy here.
00:06:59Then walk out, man!
00:07:04Where is it?
00:07:06Island Co Villa.
00:07:08We're here.
00:07:10Look! Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
00:07:12This is happening.
00:07:14It's actually game on.
00:07:16This is the block. OK.
00:07:18Oh, no way!
00:07:21Best impressions?
00:07:23Nothing in your teeth?
00:07:25I'm ready. Let's go.
00:07:27Let's go.
00:07:29I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm coming.
00:07:31Oh, my goodness.
00:07:33Oh, my God.
00:07:35Oh, my goodness.
00:07:37OK.
00:07:39It was just, like, tables rolled over everywhere.
00:07:42There was a little kid's bicycle?
00:07:44A tricycle, and, yeah, it was creepy.
00:07:46Creepy.
00:07:49This is mental.
00:07:51We're on the block.
00:07:57This is where our journey starts.
00:07:59Day one. Are you ready?
00:08:01We're going to do well. Fighting fit.
00:08:03We're going to be the best. We're going to win.
00:08:07Slow, slow, slow.
00:08:09Oh, my golly, golly, golly.
00:08:11I think it's here! It is right here.
00:08:15Meet Christian and Mimi.
00:08:18They are from South Australia,
00:08:20recently engaged...
00:08:24..and recently married.
00:08:33Christian is an electrician
00:08:35and the calming presence in this marriage.
00:08:38Mimi, on the other hand, is a fiery force of nature,
00:08:41an aspiring actress...
00:08:44I'm sleeping, I'm alive.
00:08:46..who works in her parents' Vietnamese restaurant
00:08:49for her tiger mum.
00:08:51She's tiger mum.
00:08:53My mum thinks that I am...
00:08:58..a disappointment.
00:09:00Oh, my God.
00:09:02Her words, not mine.
00:09:06She put me through a private school,
00:09:08all these extracurricular things, like piano, tennis,
00:09:10like violin, all that.
00:09:12Dancing, acting, singing, tap.
00:09:14And she's like,
00:09:16look at everything I've put you in
00:09:18and you're not good at anything.
00:09:20No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:09:26Oh, my God!
00:09:32Why are you crying?
00:09:34Why are you crying?
00:09:36Come on.
00:09:38Jessie, Jessie, Jessie!
00:09:40Wait for me.
00:09:42Come on.
00:09:44Ah! Ah!
00:09:46Ah!
00:09:48Ah!
00:09:50Ah!
00:09:52Ah!
00:09:54I can see it.
00:09:56How you going, Jessie?
00:09:58Christian. Nice to meet you.
00:10:00How you going?
00:10:02Nice to meet you.
00:10:04How are you feeling?
00:10:06It's just exciting.
00:10:08It's pretty overwhelming.
00:10:10It is so overwhelming.
00:10:12It's cool, right, looking at it?
00:10:14It's finally happened.
00:10:16Righto, brother.
00:10:18Locked and loaded.
00:10:20Does it even feel real?
00:10:22It's not real yet.
00:10:24We're shaking hands with the man.
00:10:26Scotty Cam.
00:10:28Scotty Cam, the man.
00:10:30You know you're on the block.
00:10:32And you know you've made it in life.
00:10:34They're Victorian locals.
00:10:36They just had to drive across the bridge to get here.
00:10:38I'm actually feeling real now.
00:10:40Best mates of 23 years,
00:10:42Ricky and Hayden are not the quiet reserve type.
00:10:48We experimented with a little bit of colour.
00:10:50The odd party shirt.
00:10:52Really enjoyed the odd party shirt.
00:10:54And then the wardrobe started picking up
00:10:56with lots of party shirts, the hats, the socks,
00:10:58the sunnies, the shorts, the shoes, whatever it is.
00:11:00You feel good, right?
00:11:02Being bright, being loud.
00:11:04And being different, not being afraid to be different.
00:11:10We're completely different people.
00:11:12I'm a tradie, I'm a plumber.
00:11:14Two, five.
00:11:16I am an IT guy.
00:11:18Different type of operators.
00:11:20The greatest partnerships
00:11:22and the greatest superheroes
00:11:24of all time, Batman and Robin didn't have the same skill set.
00:11:26Do you know what I mean?
00:11:28They both had their own strengths.
00:11:30Robin was a nerd.
00:11:32Batman was a powerful
00:11:34superhero who
00:11:36got most of the credit for
00:11:38the pair's worth.
00:11:44Batman would be nothing without Robin.
00:11:46To be clear, I'm Batman.
00:11:48He thinks he's Batman.
00:11:50We'll let him believe he's Batman, that's how we roll.
00:11:52If this goes to air,
00:11:54make sure that no one else finds out
00:11:56that I'm actually Batman.
00:11:58Mickey is not Batman
00:12:00and so Hayden is not
00:12:02Robin. He's Dadman.
00:12:04Or soon to be Dadman.
00:12:06Because in less than a month, he and his
00:12:08wife Chelsea are having their first
00:12:10baby after nine
00:12:12long years of IVF.
00:12:16Last year we decided to
00:12:18give it one more round, put the last embryo
00:12:20that we had in and
00:12:22it failed. We'd given up
00:12:24and then I think it was probably six weeks
00:12:26later, bang, pregnant.
00:12:28Alright, we can't embarrass
00:12:30anyone while we're here. You've got to keep going.
00:12:32Through the boom gate? No, no, you've got to keep going.
00:12:34It's the boom gate, there. Oh yeah, yeah.
00:12:36Yeah, yeah.
00:12:38Going through. Yeah, cheers, brother.
00:12:40Oh, they missed it.
00:12:42Oh no.
00:12:44I've got a boat.
00:12:46I'm not going to lie, I wasn't
00:12:48listening too well to instructions.
00:12:50Woohoo!
00:12:52It's like someone knew we were coming.
00:12:54Woohoo!
00:12:56Wait, they have a canoe.
00:12:58Are you going kayaking?
00:13:00Just go over on your right.
00:13:02Park there. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:13:04Why not?
00:13:10Oh,
00:13:12jeez.
00:13:14Pretty much every one of these people right now
00:13:16looking at us, they're like, yep, yep.
00:13:18That's them.
00:13:20There's a pair of dickheads everywhere.
00:13:22That's them.
00:13:24Does this door open the same as every other door?
00:13:26Same as my door.
00:13:28Hello!
00:13:30Have you got any luggage or just
00:13:32barbecue and a...
00:13:34Jesse.
00:13:36What's your name? Ricky.
00:13:38When I saw Jesse and Paige, I thought
00:13:40maybe it was like Love Island or something.
00:13:42We were like the invaders.
00:13:44Everyone was really good looking.
00:13:46Intimidating. Yeah.
00:13:48And they were coming over to us and I was like,
00:13:50you know, what's the actual show they're on?
00:13:52Because I still thought it was a stitch-up.
00:13:54Jesse. Nice to meet you.
00:13:56Nice to meet you, man.
00:13:58I think the first thing that comes out
00:14:00in conversation is what you do.
00:14:02Plumber. Yeah, man.
00:14:04We're enemies. I'm a sparky.
00:14:06I'm a chippy.
00:14:08Are you a chippy as well? No, I'm an IT.
00:14:10I deal with computers and stuff.
00:14:12I know nothing.
00:14:14You're a plumber. I'm a plumber.
00:14:16We've got traits.
00:14:18Let's just like help each other out.
00:14:20Yeah, we all reckon.
00:14:22Until it's like, yeah.
00:14:24Yes.
00:14:26Do you know where you're going?
00:14:28I do know where I'm going.
00:14:30Wait, watch out, watch out, watch out.
00:14:32Eve, you're already stuck.
00:14:34We are not going to die before we get on this.
00:14:36I saw the car. Jesus Christ.
00:14:40Meet Courtney.
00:14:42An event account manager slash furniture designer
00:14:44slash influencer type person.
00:14:46I also have a side business
00:14:48called The Lazy Stylist
00:14:50where I design and sell furniture.
00:14:52I love cows. Cows are my
00:14:54spirit animal.
00:14:58She is married to Grant.
00:15:00I love eating cows.
00:15:02A landscape business
00:15:04development manager and a
00:15:06fiercely Maltese man.
00:15:08Can I shine on this mirror?
00:15:10Don't. Shut up.
00:15:12It's like the sheep took a s*** on our wall.
00:15:14Someone wanted to collaborate
00:15:16and I gave them a Lazy Stylist piece.
00:15:18This was right at the beginning.
00:15:20I don't care. It's ugly.
00:15:22They are married and come
00:15:24to us from Western Sydney.
00:15:26We're in. No vacancy.
00:15:28Are you turning in? Yes. Are there any other couples?
00:15:30I think they might be.
00:15:32Woohoo.
00:15:34How many do we have? We've got three couples so we need two more.
00:15:40You ready? I'm ready. You ready? Give me a kiss.
00:15:44Hello.
00:15:46Welcome.
00:15:58Wait. We need one more couple.
00:16:00Phillip Island won't know
00:16:02what's hit them.
00:16:04Hahaha.
00:16:10Enough.
00:16:12Someone can take over and be Brad's
00:16:14partner. Is that what
00:16:16you want?
00:16:18All I said
00:16:20was you make it hard. Close
00:16:22the door.
00:16:24Hailing from
00:16:26the tropics, a Cairns couple.
00:16:28Kylie and Brad.
00:16:30Oddly people always ask us
00:16:32are you guys from Melbourne? I'm like no.
00:16:34Why? And everyone's like it's because you wear black all the time.
00:16:40Everyone wears black, has black homes.
00:16:42That's definitely not a Cairns thing.
00:16:44Everyone up here is coastal.
00:16:46It's all white because everything's hot.
00:16:48These guys have
00:16:50a troop of four to keep them busy.
00:16:52Brushing teeth please.
00:16:54Steal you too.
00:16:58But apart from that, Brad is a tradey
00:17:00double threat, being both a plumber
00:17:02and electrician. While Kylie
00:17:04runs her own hair and beauty business.
00:17:10Here we go.
00:17:12They're here.
00:17:14Is this them all walking up to us?
00:17:16They're like coming to greet us.
00:17:18Is this what's happening?
00:17:20When we first drove in, we could
00:17:22see the other couple sort of just waiting.
00:17:24Excited, they kind of just kept coming
00:17:26towards us.
00:17:28Hi.
00:17:32Welcome home.
00:17:34This is it.
00:17:36Like we're actually doing this.
00:17:38Hi, I'm Paige. Brad. Brad, nice to meet you Brad.
00:17:40Hello, I'm Kylie.
00:17:42Kylie, you look stunning.
00:17:44Thank you so do you.
00:17:46Kylie and Brad rocked up
00:17:48and I knew from that very moment
00:17:50I was drawn to Kylie and I was like
00:17:52we're going to be best friends. She just
00:17:54doesn't know it yet.
00:17:59From Queensland?
00:18:01Yeah, Queensland.
00:18:03So what does everyone do?
00:18:05I'm a plumber and a sparky.
00:18:11Okay, that's everyone.
00:18:13How about a quick roll call?
00:18:15Run me through the contestants who are here.
00:18:17Just trying to remember everyone's names.
00:18:19WA team,
00:18:21Queensland team.
00:18:23So who are the contestants from WA?
00:18:25Paige.
00:18:28And her partner.
00:18:30I'm not going to try and remember their names
00:18:32but there was definitely WA,
00:18:34SA,
00:18:36and the boys from Vic.
00:18:38So Paige and Jesse.
00:18:40Then we had Ricky and Hayden.
00:18:42Then we had Courtney Grant.
00:18:44And then last one was Kylie and Brad.
00:18:46I can tell you their colours, I can tell you
00:18:48their state, I can tell you everything.
00:18:50What their jobs are.
00:18:52Location, tick.
00:18:54Blockheads, tick.
00:18:56They're set for season 20.
00:18:58But after 20 years,
00:19:00if there's one thing we've learned,
00:19:02it's that the block is the hardest game in town.
00:19:04Welcome to the block.
00:19:10Let it begin.
00:19:16Jeez mate, you're far from the beach.
00:19:21I'm not having you on site.
00:19:23You're a snake.
00:19:25Apparently our signatures have been forged.
00:19:27We might have to shut the site down.
00:19:29We're having a baby.
00:19:31Life's crazy on the block.
00:19:37What's the overall plan
00:19:39for this island home?
00:19:41Just wing it.
00:19:45I don't know how you do this.
00:19:47I can't believe I signed up for the block voluntarily.
00:19:52What have you created?
00:19:54The new blockheads will face 12 weeks
00:19:56of relentless renovation.
00:19:58Today is a disaster.
00:20:00Full proper. This is a disaster.
00:20:02They just need to stop and get things done properly.
00:20:04You look at authority like it's nothing.
00:20:06You're going against the rules.
00:20:08Well that's a joke.
00:20:10You either laugh your way through a disaster
00:20:12or you cry.
00:20:14He's not here. Are you fair dinkum?
00:20:16Who's running this show?
00:20:18Grumpy or me?
00:20:20What's that?
00:20:22I'm not going to wrap it up.
00:20:24This is part of the deal, unfortunately.
00:20:26And before too long, this fun family resort
00:20:28will push these relationships to breaking point.
00:20:30We all have our husbands by the balls.
00:20:32Not true.
00:20:34Don't talk over me. Don't tell me not to waste any time.
00:20:36Don't take it out on me, you anger.
00:20:38This is really heavy, honey.
00:20:40I can't make decisions when you're complaining.
00:20:42Get out.
00:20:44You talk s*** about me, you get cut.
00:20:46You're like an angry little gremlin.
00:20:48That's so childish, man.
00:20:50Darn.
00:20:52I'm joking.
00:20:54And after just a few weeks,
00:20:56one team will pack it all in.
00:20:58Can you leave us, please, just for a sec?
00:21:00I don't want to do this anymore.
00:21:02This has just been a nightmare.
00:21:04I don't know how we recover from here, man.
00:21:06You never want to listen to me.
00:21:08I'm not happy. I'm not happy either.
00:21:10I'll just go home. Is that what you want?
00:21:12Can we have a break?
00:21:14I'm done.
00:21:16I'm done. That's it.
00:21:20So if you guys are listening to this,
00:21:22I think you should actually start looking for replacements.
00:21:24When it comes to room delivery,
00:21:26it's a mixed bag of lollies.
00:21:28Oh, my goodness.
00:21:30Some sweet.
00:21:32That's hot.
00:21:34Some sour.
00:21:38This is going to be the biggest disaster
00:21:40we've seen in 20 seasons.
00:21:42You want to be safe. I don't want to be safe.
00:21:44Hell hath no fury like Jane of Laves.
00:21:46But in the end,
00:21:48these five houses will undergo
00:21:50incredible transformation.
00:21:56It's sexy.
00:21:58It's classy.
00:22:00This is the most emotional I've felt judging.
00:22:02I've got to ask whether or not
00:22:04I can be a bidder or not.
00:22:06All for that one big day
00:22:08where lives will be changed forever.
00:22:10It's soulful.
00:22:14As our five new teams
00:22:16join the Block family.
00:22:18I'm so proud of us.
00:22:20I'm super grateful for being here every day.
00:22:22You guys are going to be my new family.
00:22:28Here's to the Block.
00:22:40Tip, tip.
00:22:44Tip, tip.
00:22:46Take one.
00:22:48I know, I'm nervous too.
00:22:50When you're on a holiday.
00:22:54You can't find the words to say.
00:22:56Oh, my God, is that Scotty?
00:23:04Scotty, I love you.
00:23:06I love you.
00:23:08I love you.
00:23:14Scotty Cam, the legend.
00:23:16Scotty.
00:23:18Yeah, Scotty.
00:23:22I scored Scotty Cam.
00:23:24I met him. I'm happy. My journey's over.
00:23:30Scotty rocked up.
00:23:32Daddy of the Block.
00:23:34Meeting Scotty Cam was like
00:23:36meeting...
00:23:38Ariana Grande.
00:23:40For Mimi.
00:23:42The Block, Ariana Grande.
00:23:44She's my best friend.
00:23:48I love Ariana Grande
00:23:50more than I love Christian.
00:23:52Oh, gee, thanks.
00:23:58Welcome, Blockheads.
00:24:02That's Frankie. Go on, push up.
00:24:04Hi, Papa.
00:24:06Oh, Frankie.
00:24:08Hello, darling.
00:24:10Welcome to Phillip Island.
00:24:14Now, I'm guessing that you guys
00:24:16grew up watching this show.
00:24:18Yeah. Because you were kids when we started.
00:24:20I'm so ready for the House Decider
00:24:22challenge. I've been mentally
00:24:24prepping myself for this very moment.
00:24:26You know you're sprinting, right?
00:24:28Where are we going, bud?
00:24:30The Tapasari.
00:24:32I already kind of logistically
00:24:34was scanning and was like,
00:24:36okay, that'll be one, two, three, four,
00:24:38five, which was a double story.
00:24:40Looked different to all the others, so I was like,
00:24:42we need to get this one.
00:24:44I bet you you are busting
00:24:46to get stuck in and build
00:24:48a house.
00:24:50Well, guess what? That is exactly what we're going to do.
00:24:52No mucking around.
00:24:54Right now? We're starting
00:24:56straight away.
00:24:58Now, you guys are about to play
00:25:00one of the great games on telly.
00:25:02Are you up for it?
00:25:04Yes. You can handle it?
00:25:06Yeah.
00:25:10Okay.
00:25:12Jessie and Paige.
00:25:14Okay.
00:25:16You were first through the gate today, weren't you?
00:25:18We were. Well, that means
00:25:20you get to choose
00:25:22a penguin first.
00:25:24And on the other side of that penguin is a
00:25:26colour-bond colour, and that colour matches
00:25:28the roof colour of the house
00:25:30that you are going to
00:25:32renovate for the next 12 weeks.
00:25:34So basically, you pick a penguin,
00:25:36you pick a house.
00:25:38Wow.
00:25:42So,
00:25:44pick a penguin.
00:25:46This is it.
00:25:50I think number two.
00:25:52Number two, please.
00:25:54This one right here?
00:25:56Okay, here we go.
00:25:58White.
00:26:00That is Dover white.
00:26:02And that colour
00:26:04matches house number
00:26:06one.
00:26:08Which is right up there as you drive in the gate.
00:26:12Okay. Number one.
00:26:16Next through the gate was Christian and Mimi.
00:26:18Pick a penguin.
00:26:20The middle one, please. Number three.
00:26:22This one? Yes, please.
00:26:24Surf
00:26:26mist matte.
00:26:28That colour matches
00:26:30house number five.
00:26:34The double storey
00:26:36at the front.
00:26:40We noticed that house five was the only double storey.
00:26:44But we saw it was big,
00:26:46we saw it was grand. And point of difference.
00:26:48No way.
00:26:50Boys, you and X
00:26:52pick a penguin.
00:26:54Number four. Number four, Scotty.
00:26:56This one here? Yep.
00:27:00Shale grey.
00:27:02Goes with house number three.
00:27:04This one right here.
00:27:12House number three.
00:27:14Courtney and Grant, you and X.
00:27:16Which one do you want? You're luckier than me.
00:27:18This one.
00:27:22Surf mist.
00:27:24That is house number two.
00:27:26Right there.
00:27:30That means
00:27:32Brad and Kylie, you get
00:27:34southerly, which is house
00:27:36number four. We were lucky last.
00:27:38So we got whatever was left.
00:27:40Yeah.
00:27:42Okay. Gang.
00:27:44We have our houses.
00:27:46It's time for you to move in because tomorrow morning
00:27:48you're going to start renovating
00:27:50and you need to present a room to the judges
00:27:52by next Sunday.
00:27:54It's full on, this joint.
00:27:56We're ready, Scotty.
00:28:00Also,
00:28:02each team will have a budget of
00:28:04$250,000 cash.
00:28:06Thanks to ComBank.
00:28:08Okay, gang.
00:28:10You will find the details of the room you are doing
00:28:12this week and the rooms you do every
00:28:14week on the Domain website.
00:28:16And that's the only place that you
00:28:18will find that.
00:28:20You're on the block, people. It's very tough.
00:28:22Get into your houses.
00:28:24Get going. Good luck.
00:28:28That's your cue to run.
00:28:32Come on, guys.
00:28:34Come on.
00:28:48Are we going through here?
00:28:50Yep. I'm scared.
00:28:52Ready?
00:28:54Oh, wow.
00:28:58Oh, no.
00:29:00I didn't expect that.
00:29:02Oh, my
00:29:04goodness.
00:29:08This is our
00:29:10home for the next three months.
00:29:12Wow, wow, wow.
00:29:15Alright, alright.
00:29:18Yeah, right.
00:29:24What do you think?
00:29:28It looked a bit haunted.
00:29:34I don't know.
00:29:36Okay.
00:29:40Everything's busted. This thing's a bombsite.
00:29:42It was toast.
00:29:44Yeah, absolute chaos.
00:29:46Looking around, I'm like, man, this joint
00:29:48is dumb.
00:29:50I need a shower.
00:29:52We found this fancy
00:29:54looking screen and it turned out to be the
00:29:56CommBank
00:29:58SmartBoard.
00:30:00There it is.
00:30:02That is just made for you.
00:30:04I was mind-blown. Yeah, this thing is
00:30:06smarter than me.
00:30:08You want to see your plans?
00:30:10There it is, dude. Wow.
00:30:12What do you think?
00:30:14I see the vision.
00:30:16I see it.
00:30:18I'm loving house one. If you said right now,
00:30:20take your pick, I would
00:30:22keep it house one. Yeah, same.
00:30:24This is our house.
00:30:26That is stunning. We're not really
00:30:28utilising any of the old house.
00:30:30And then the steel framing has basically
00:30:32gone on top of. So, it's
00:30:34kind of like we're building a brand new house.
00:30:36Oh, it looks beautiful, except
00:30:38I would definitely change the colour
00:30:40of the facade.
00:30:42Maybe flip that to this
00:30:44and do that even more black.
00:30:46Then you do like a black door.
00:30:48Not black enough for her liking.
00:30:50Not black enough for me. I'd make everything black.
00:30:52What have you done? Come on.
00:30:54Control-Alt-Delete.
00:30:56Turn it off and turn it back on.
00:30:58Oh my god, mate, you had
00:31:00one job. Oh, you've deleted
00:31:02the budget. I'm just trying to figure
00:31:04out where's where. Yeah, where are we?
00:31:06Hello. Hi.
00:31:08How's your house?
00:31:10It needs a bit of work.
00:31:12I've got some prizes for you.
00:31:14It's from JB Hi-Fi. Google Pixel.
00:31:16Phones.
00:31:18A tablet.
00:31:20There's a tablet as well.
00:31:22And there's also, this is a good one,
00:31:24watches. You spoil us.
00:31:26So then you can do all your ordering.
00:31:28Have you worked this out? Not yet.
00:31:30This is incredible, this thing. I love it.
00:31:32That's the house. That's your house. I love it.
00:31:34Wow is right. Wow.
00:31:36And then you do this.
00:31:38Yes, okay.
00:31:40So this is our... Oh, awesome.
00:31:42CommBank's total budget. Yeah. You reckon that's
00:31:44awesome? Yeah. They've got more money
00:31:46than that.
00:31:48Look at the
00:31:50budgets for 12 grand on the kitchen.
00:31:52That's 12 grand
00:31:54for the kitchen.
00:31:56And we're gonna win
00:31:58challenges. I'm not sure about
00:32:00this.
00:32:02It was good to see the breakdown,
00:32:04but certainly concerned.
00:32:06The thing is, this is not enough
00:32:08to build that beautiful house. It's OHR.
00:32:10You know that. We gotta win. You gotta win.
00:32:12Yeah. You gotta win money.
00:32:14Challenges. Room wins.
00:32:16All that sort of jazz. So, have you
00:32:18thought about where you're sleeping tonight, boys?
00:32:20We've thought about it. Haven't found it yet.
00:32:22Wherever you're staying?
00:32:24No, no, no. I've got a magnificent house on the island here.
00:32:26You're going nowhere near it.
00:32:28That's wise. You go down to Mitre 10
00:32:30and they'll give you a whole bunch of camping gear.
00:32:32You get a tent, some blow-up
00:32:34mattresses, and everything like that.
00:32:36It's gonna be terrific.
00:32:38Are you gonna camp with us?
00:32:40No. I've got a magnificent house.
00:32:42I'm not a camper. Sorry, that stressed me out.
00:32:44Oh, you're not a camper. Okay.
00:32:46Can I take the
00:32:48three grand we're not gonna spend on that and put it
00:32:50towards a hotel?
00:33:00There's
00:33:02something in the air on Phillip Island
00:33:04today.
00:33:06Mitre 10.
00:33:08Bang, bang. Then it's rock and roll.
00:33:10I think it's those
00:33:12day one on the blocked fields
00:33:14as our fresh batch of blockheads
00:33:16embark on their first mission.
00:33:18Oh, baby.
00:33:20Our first trip out.
00:33:22Mitre 10 to get a tent. Yeah.
00:33:24I attempt to sleep in tonight
00:33:26and for the foreseeable future
00:33:28until I decide
00:33:30to upgrade them to a bedroom.
00:33:32How you feeling, Meems?
00:33:34First visit.
00:33:36First visit. Don't be weird.
00:33:38First visit.

00:33:42How are you? Good. Craig. Grant. Nice to
00:33:44meet you. Nice to meet you. Courtney. Courtney, love to

00:33:48Thank you. And welcome to Phillip Island.
00:33:50Weather's always like this. I love Craig.
00:33:52Craig was awesome.
00:33:54You can see here, Team Red.
00:33:56Yep. We're Team Red.
00:33:58We have so much stuff. I know. How do you go through
00:34:00all this? Just load our toolbox up, mate.
00:34:02Yep. We loaded up on Mitre 10
00:34:04so first thing we got was
00:34:06all our tools.
00:34:08Best brand you can ever get.
00:34:10Oh, cute. That's cute.
00:34:12Best pair of work boots.
00:34:14Oh, they're actually really fashionable. They're quite nice.
00:34:16And they smell really
00:34:18nice and fresh. Cool.
00:34:20Who sniffs their boots? Is that weird? I know, that's so weird.
00:34:22Who smells their boots?
00:34:24Roomware's Outdoor Living. I feel like we're in
00:34:26the right spot. Oh, here we go.
00:34:28We had to pick out all our camping gear.
00:34:30What tent do you want?
00:34:32The biggest.
00:34:34This one looks big.
00:34:36I want the six-person
00:34:38please. Is this the six-person? That is the
00:34:40six-person. Oh, look, there's only one.
00:34:42Sorry, guys. Oh, you alright?
00:34:44Yeah, I'm fine. I'll carry that for you. Oh,
00:34:46thank you kindly. Oh, that's all
00:34:48good. Nothing that can't be repaired. Hardware
00:34:50store. Ah, there we go.
00:34:52We got the six-person tent where
00:34:54everyone else is, like, fighting for a
00:34:56two-person tent.
00:34:58A few contestants have been in already
00:35:00because we're starting to get low on these stocks.
00:35:02Ooh. It was like a three-man
00:35:04tent or a two-man tent.
00:35:06Do you want a two or a three? Like, quickly grab the
00:35:08three-man tent.
00:35:10Two tents left
00:35:12on the shelf. Yeah. So Christian just
00:35:14went, boom, boom. Thanks very much. See you
00:35:16later. Yeah, he was quick off the mark.
00:35:18Yeah. I felt bad
00:35:20going after, but I was just, like,
00:35:22thinking of me and Mimi on our first night.
00:35:24So we need two sleeping bags.
00:35:26Sleeping bags? Yes, obviously.
00:35:28I thought we'd get sheets.
00:35:30I was 100% a camping
00:35:32catastrophiser. I catastrophised camping
00:35:34without even knowing about it.
00:35:36And it wasn't
00:35:38that bad. I mean, we had a queen mattress.
00:35:40I think we need a pizza oven.
00:35:42Can I grab one of these?
00:35:44Okay.
00:35:48Hey, do you actually need that?
00:35:50Alright.
00:35:52I think that might need to go up. You hold it. I think you're
00:35:54alright, Courtney. Go.
00:35:56Locked
00:35:58and loaded.
00:36:00You want me to drive and get lost?
00:36:02No.
00:36:06That was fun. Being
00:36:08that tent. You have the biggest
00:36:10one. Of course I would. Why wouldn't I?
00:36:12I really wanted a torch. Why didn't you back
00:36:14me on that? I know.
00:36:16Back into the
00:36:18wasteland.
00:36:20Alright, home sweet home. Home sweet
00:36:22home for the next three months.
00:36:30Honey, we're home.
00:36:32Honey, we're home.
00:36:34Camping time.
00:36:36Camping time, brother.
00:36:38Camping on slab.
00:36:40To the slab. Let me take the
00:36:42para mate, please. Which is just where
00:36:44all the best camping stories
00:36:46come from. Camping on a concrete
00:36:48slab in a wasteland.
00:36:52So, we're
00:36:54pumped.
00:36:56Sleeping on the conk.
00:36:58Wow. Alright. Big rocks.
00:37:00This is gonna be rough. We were really
00:37:02couldn't wait to peg our tent down
00:37:04in 150mm thick
00:37:06concrete with reinforced
00:37:08steel. Alright, make this
00:37:10easy. Come on.
00:37:14You ready? Yeah.
00:37:16Let's see how quickly you can do it.
00:37:18We can do it. We do it all the
00:37:20time. That's what I mean.
00:37:22Alright, so this is the
00:37:24room that I had in mind before.
00:37:26What do you think?
00:37:28I think it's perfect. It's like we have our own
00:37:30bloody en suite.
00:37:32Look, how comfy is that?
00:37:34The insulation.
00:37:36We're happy.
00:37:38This makes me question how many airbeds are gonna be in there.
00:37:40Just
00:37:42quietly. We might have grabbed two airbeds
00:37:44for no reason.
00:37:46We're the smallest on here.
00:37:48Like height wise anyway, like
00:37:50not, you know, but.
00:37:52So it probably made the most sense that we got the
00:37:54smallest tent. This is tiny.
00:37:56No. You're longer than
00:37:58this tent. I know.
00:38:00Let's just check it out.
00:38:023, 2, 1.
00:38:06Should we go to bed?
00:38:08We'll go to bed. Big day. I'm really tired and I need a bit of
00:38:10beauty sleep. Shoes off please
00:38:12before you go in. Yes boss.
00:38:14We can stand in our tent with our little torch
00:38:16and they're like crawling in like
00:38:18commando rolling like.
00:38:20Watch the pump please.
00:38:22You gotta stay humble though
00:38:24because everyone else can't even stand up in their tent
00:38:26and here I am just wanting more. We're even hanging
00:38:28our towels in our tent
00:38:30and it's not even touching anything of ours. We have a light.
00:38:32Goodnight
00:38:34Goodnight
00:38:36How are you feeling?
00:38:38I'm actually really comfortable. It's cozy.
00:38:40I'm really comfy. That's what I love
00:38:42about tents, like you always feel super cozy in them.
00:38:44It's all good. I'm so tired.
00:38:46Oh I know. So tired and it's only
00:38:48day one. Do you wanna cuddle
00:38:50tonight? No.
00:39:04Morning sesh.
00:39:06Getting after it. Day one.
00:39:08Paige is camp ready.
00:39:10Morning guys.
00:39:12Morning guys.
00:39:14We're in a tent.
00:39:16And we just woke up on our first morning.
00:39:18How are you feeling Courtney?
00:39:20It's really tough.
00:39:22I need a coffee.
00:39:24I think what you've got to do,
00:39:26I think what you've got to do,
00:39:28I think what you've got to do,
00:39:30I think what you've got to do,
00:39:32I think what you've got to do,
00:39:34I think what you've got to do,
00:39:36I think what you've got to do,
00:39:38I think what you've got to do.
00:39:40I think what you've got to do,
00:39:42I think what you've got to do.
00:39:44and our current
00:39:46living situation is a shit hole.
00:39:48living situation is a shit hole.
00:39:50How was your three hours sleep Courtney?
00:39:52Caving was fine.
00:39:54It was just a bit cold.
00:39:56I can't even sit up.
00:39:58My head hits the roof.
00:40:00It would be a one-person tent.
00:40:01I felt sorry for Brad.
00:40:02Good morning.
00:40:04Morning.
00:40:05How'd you sleep?
00:40:06Oh, I dozed back off.
00:40:09And then the boys, the boys, I think it was Hayden
00:40:12that was on the floor.
00:40:13We've got one Lilo.
00:40:14His bike's on it.
00:40:16I actually woke up feeling pretty good
00:40:18considering I slipped on a slab.
00:40:20You could fit like a whole family in Paige and Jessie's.
00:40:23Yeah.
00:40:30I've heard a couple of stories about the other teams already
00:40:33and I'm like, oh, I won't tell them how my place was.
00:40:36Yeah, do you know what?
00:40:38It wasn't that bad.
00:40:45Morning.
00:40:46Morning.
00:40:47How'd you sleep?
00:40:48Surprisingly well.
00:40:50I thought we would...
00:40:51I was actually anxious
00:40:52because we still don't know what room we're doing, so...
00:40:56I just got a text.
00:40:57Our first room.
00:40:59You reckon? What is it?
00:41:00What have you got?
00:41:01What have I got?
00:41:02This morning we woke up,
00:41:04jumped on the Domain in the no hub.
00:41:06It's bathroom week.
00:41:11More tent life.
00:41:14They're trying to kill us.
00:41:19What have you got?
00:41:20Bathroom week, mate.
00:41:22I'm a plumber, so like,
00:41:24I don't mind starting off with a bathroom, right?
00:41:26Like, I've done a few of them.
00:41:29Sorry, I wasn't too upset about it.
00:41:31It's bathroom week, Courtney.
00:41:33Where are we going to sleep for next week?
00:41:35And we knew then and there
00:41:37that it's going to be another week camping
00:41:39because there's no bedroom.
00:41:41That was hard.
00:41:43No!
00:41:45It's bathroom week!
00:41:49I'm going to throw up.
00:41:51I'm going to sleep in the Ford.
00:41:52So it was bathroom.
00:41:54And we're actually really excited for that
00:41:55because we felt we had more ideas
00:41:57for a bedroom, didn't we?
00:41:58Do you know what?
00:41:59That is correct.
00:42:00I'm actually so stoked it's a bathroom.
00:42:02Another week.
00:42:03Yes!
00:42:04For a bedroom.
00:42:05So I'm good with it.
00:42:06Okay, okay.
00:42:07With a block now officially underway,
00:42:09the site needs its foreman.
00:42:12But with Phillip Island being a fair distance from Melbourne,
00:42:15only one half of the Keith and Dan duo
00:42:18was able to make the move here for three months.
00:42:23Meaning Keith has handed the baton to Foreman Dan
00:42:26to rule over the island block.
00:42:29Solo.
00:42:31The position is a far cry from his humble beginnings
00:42:34as a blockhead in 2012.
00:42:36Third and final call.
00:42:38I can't believe it.
00:42:39Selling, selling, selling.
00:42:41Oh!
00:42:43Before graduating.
00:42:44Ready, four boy?
00:42:45To four boy.
00:42:47Then.
00:42:48You are now going to be called.
00:42:50Four Dan.
00:42:51Four Dan.
00:42:51Four Dan.
00:42:53And now just foreman.
00:42:58Mate, head foreman for top job.
00:43:01Yeah, wow.
00:43:02Running the site.
00:43:03Are you pumped?
00:43:03Mate, I'm pumped.
00:43:04I'm excited.
00:43:05Remember back in 2012, you know,
00:43:06when I used to train you to go, no!
00:43:09Remember that?
00:43:10Oh, I do remember those days.
00:43:11No!
00:43:12All right, focus.
00:43:13Oh no.
00:43:14Stare.
00:43:15No, go.
00:43:17Go.
00:43:18No.
00:43:19Again.
00:43:19Come on, no!
00:43:20Well, now it's yes.
00:43:22It's yes, is it?
00:43:22Yes.
00:43:23Yes.
00:43:24I'm ready.
00:43:25Let's go.
00:43:26Let's go, Scotty, I'm ready.
00:43:27Come on.
00:43:28Yes, here we go.
00:43:29And now, your first job, opening McCafé.
00:43:33My favourite part, McCafé.
00:43:35Oh, Tina.
00:43:36Hello.
00:43:37Hey, how are you?
00:43:37Nice to see you, mate.
00:43:38How are you?
00:43:39You're looking good.
00:43:40Our favourite place on the block.
00:43:49Coffee time, mate.
00:43:51Boys.
00:43:52Morning, gentlemen.
00:43:52Ricky and Hayden.
00:43:54This is Dan.
00:43:54Dan, boys, how are you?
00:43:55Nice to meet you.
00:43:56This is the foreman.
00:43:57Meeting Foreman Dan was amazing.
00:44:00Meet Dan the foreman.
00:44:02Hello.
00:44:03Who's your favourite?
00:44:03Dan and Danny were my favourite when I was a kid.
00:44:06And he has such a handsome face in real life.
00:44:09Wow.
00:44:10Wow.
00:44:11He actually really does.
00:44:12He does, right?
00:44:12He's a beautiful man.
00:44:13Now, here's the foreman, running the whole show.
00:44:16Dan the man.
00:44:17Brilliant.
00:44:18Dan always has a soft spot.
00:44:21Hello.
00:44:22Hey, Dan.
00:44:23Hello.
00:44:24Grant, Dan.
00:44:25Courtney.
00:44:25Nice to meet you guys.
00:44:26Nice to meet you.
00:44:27Foreman Dan.
00:44:28Dan the man.
00:44:29Any questions?
00:44:30He's your man.
00:44:30All right.
00:44:31There'll be questions.
00:44:32There'll be questions.
00:44:33Yeah.
00:44:34Me and him are getting along well, I think.
00:44:35I believe.
00:44:36I hope he thinks the same.
00:44:37Nice to meet you.
00:44:39Enjoy them, guys.
00:44:39Good luck to you, Dan.
00:44:42Tina and Jade.
00:44:43Nice to meet you.
00:44:43We're going to get to know you very well.
00:44:45We'll coffee first.
00:44:46Starts with a small cup.
00:44:47Cup of tea, mate?
00:44:48Yes, please.
00:44:49Another small cup.
00:44:51Full cream milk, please.
00:44:52And then by about 10 o'clock,
00:44:53we're ready for a nice latte.
00:44:56And if that one doesn't run straight through me,
00:44:57we're ready for another two before 9.30.
00:45:00Yuck.
00:45:02And they're all full cream milk,
00:45:04because that's how a coffee's meant to be made.
00:45:07While the wingman on site is another old favourite, Tom,
00:45:10who's arriving with the Reece plumbing team.
00:45:13Hey, Tom.
00:45:14I'm Kylie.
00:45:15Nice to meet you.
00:45:16How are you?
00:45:17Nice to meet you too.
00:45:18Yeah, good.
00:45:18They always ask,
00:45:20for sure.
00:45:21What do you do for work?
00:45:22I'm a sparky and a plumber.
00:45:23Jesus.
00:45:25Our sports Brad is the ultimate tradie double threat,
00:45:29so he'll be all over the technical side
00:45:31of the main bathroom.
00:45:33All right.
00:45:34All right.
00:45:35So we're doing this one?
00:45:36Leaving Kylie to focus on the style.
00:45:38So we're keeping the bath?
00:45:39Yeah.
00:45:40Vanity?
00:45:41Yeah.
00:45:42Toilet?
00:45:43Yeah.
00:45:43I'm fine how that layout is.
00:45:44Yeah.
00:45:45Yeah.
00:45:47Doing a property on Phillip Island,
00:45:49like most people are just going to get a coastal brief
00:45:51and kind of go with it.
00:45:52And I thought,
00:45:53well, why not look for a market
00:45:54that's chasing something a little bit different?
00:45:58Shouldn't you be going somewhere Kylie?
00:45:59No Tommy, I'm running so late.
00:46:02I need to go to Reece.
00:46:02I need tapwear, so I can plumb it.
00:46:05No, I know what I want.
00:46:06The theme that I'm going for,
00:46:08is dark, textural, modern,
00:46:10predominantly black.
00:46:12And let's just pray that this is going to work.
00:46:15Pray that they have what I'm after.
00:46:20Black everything.
00:46:20Black toilet, black bath, black tapwear,
00:46:22black sink, black vanity.
00:46:25Maybe like black glass for a shower.
00:46:27No, they don't do that,
00:46:28but like that could be a vibe.
00:46:30All right, get to Reece.
00:46:31Thanks Tom.
00:46:34Not many people do it.
00:46:35And like, I'm a bit quirky and a bit weird.
00:46:37So I feel like there's definitely a demographic for it.
00:46:40I literally cannot be the only person that is like this.
00:46:46I think it's going to stand out.
00:46:51Blue sky, smiling at me.
00:46:55Nothing but blue sky.
00:46:57Watch this thing.
00:47:00We woke up out of our tent and we were like excited.
00:47:04And then we realised how much planning had to be done
00:47:08within like the first few hours.
00:47:11Bathroom wake, I think it's-
00:47:12Are you nervous?
00:47:13A little bit.
00:47:16It's all new.
00:47:16Really?
00:47:17Like different experience, isn't it?
00:47:19But you're so good.
00:47:20Yeah, no.
00:47:21I'm like, I'm so excited to see you work
00:47:23because I always hear about you working,
00:47:24but I never get to see it.
00:47:25I just want to get my hands dirty, get in the demo.
00:47:26You're all over it.
00:47:27Yeah.
00:47:28But I also want to learn and that's why I'm-
00:47:30100%.
00:47:31Here asking.
00:47:32I definitely thrive under pressure.
00:47:34I feel like I'm a very methodical and logical person
00:47:37who can tackle challenges.
00:47:39And Paige's first self-assigned challenge
00:47:42is to ignore this week's room
00:47:44and completely redesign the house instead.
00:47:47You need linen storage.
00:47:48Yeah.
00:47:49I'm a big storage person.
00:47:50That is nowhere near enough.
00:47:52Even start with a garage and extend a bit
00:47:54because you need storage.
00:47:57Like what can you put in here?
00:47:58What if you have sub boards?
00:48:01Yeah.
00:48:03Laundry, like what is this stuff?
00:48:05So this is the laundry sink.
00:48:07Yep.
00:48:09Where do you wash a dog?
00:48:12What if you have canoes?
00:48:16We all felt very overwhelmed with everything, so.
00:48:18I didn't really feel overwhelmed.
00:48:20Sorry, okay.
00:48:22Iron me.
00:48:24I said I always wanted a house
00:48:26where you can have an iron out all the time
00:48:28because no one wants to put away.
00:48:30Do we get one of those folding iron boards?
00:48:33Something we have to evaluate.
00:48:33Let's like, I think, let's just,
00:48:36how about we focus on,
00:48:37I think we need to focus on thinking about bathroom.
00:48:39Good call, Jessie.
00:48:41The main bathrooms will eventually be surrounded
00:48:43by three bedrooms,
00:48:45but the starting point is just a shell.
00:48:48We met our builders on day one.
00:48:52Local, our one faggy boys.
00:48:54Hey, how's it going?
00:48:55Hey. Hello.
00:48:56What's up?
00:48:57Oh, you.
00:48:59We felt we had a really good headstart
00:49:01by having some local guys
00:49:02who did all their work on the island.
00:49:04We were lucky enough for them to jump on board.
00:49:06So this is currently the bathroom.
00:49:08I think this is where the door's meant to be.
00:49:11We have a toilet, shower.
00:49:13Toilet's there, so yeah.
00:49:14For vanity.
00:49:15Okay.
00:49:16I want you to walk into the bathroom
00:49:17and feel it's just a timeless design
00:49:21that it's not going to date.
00:49:22It's not something that's overly trendy.
00:49:24It's something that will see you through lots of decades
00:49:28and still be just as beautiful as it was today.
00:49:31Jessie and Paige plan on using a green feature tile
00:49:34across two walls,
00:49:35enclosing the shower and the bath.
00:49:37And Paige will deploy her coastal grandma aesthetic
00:49:41through traditional trimmings like the tapware and basin.
00:49:49Hello.
00:49:51Hey.
00:49:51Hi, I'm Doug.
00:49:52How are you?
00:49:53Nice to meet you.
00:49:54How are you?
00:49:55How are you, Doug?
00:49:56I'm Chris.
00:49:57Nice to meet you, man.
00:49:58Our builders are DS Built, Doug and Chris,
00:50:00who appeared for a very brief time
00:50:03in Stephanie Gian's house last year, actually.
00:50:05Oh, my God.
00:50:06Oh, my God.
00:50:09He was the interim support, interim help
00:50:12before their long-term builder came on.
00:50:14Wow, look at this place.
00:50:15Yeah, it's all happening.
00:50:16Yeah, and it's bathroom.
00:50:18We're on.
00:50:19Yeah, let's do it.
00:50:20All right.
00:50:21Got the right vibes straight away.
00:50:23Is it entry?
00:50:23Essentially entry, yep.
00:50:24Entry here, yep.
00:50:25Living and dining and kitchen.
00:50:27Yep.
00:50:28Essentially, this is roughly where we're working this week.
00:50:31Yeah, there's a bath, a shower, and then a vanity.
00:50:34Yep.
00:50:36It's a pretty decent sized bathroom.
00:50:37Pretty big.
00:50:38It's not too bad.
00:50:39Yeah, it is pretty big.
00:50:40We need a point of difference.
00:50:40The first room on the block is a big deal.
00:50:43It's the chance to imprint your style,
00:50:45and the best way to do that is with a buzzword.
00:50:49I definitely think we've got a really clear vision.
00:50:51You do this.
00:50:52Modern Mediterranean.
00:50:54Modern Mediterranean.
00:50:55Yeah, you know, some curves, organic shapes.
00:50:59Natural materials.
00:50:59Natural materials.
00:51:01It's really cool.
00:51:02I like it.
00:51:03I've come around on it.
00:51:04You didn't like it at first.
00:51:05Why?
00:51:06Well, it's not my, I didn't think it was my style.
00:51:09I couldn't picture it.
00:51:10What's your style?
00:51:11I don't know.
00:51:12I don't have a style.
00:51:13I wear a white T-shirt.
00:51:14Trestle tables and like plastic garage chairs.
00:51:18Living beyond your means.
00:51:20Oh, don't.
00:51:25Courtney and Grant aim to inspire
00:51:27Malta holiday vibes in their main bathroom.
00:51:30The tiles will be natural stone,
00:51:32and one corner will be curved
00:51:34to create a rustic island resort style.
00:51:40There's a lot of differences on this year's block.
00:51:43Firstly, we're on an island.
00:51:45Secondly, there was no house decided challenge,
00:51:48just a penguin to pick.
00:51:51Thirdly, the houses are not all the same.
00:51:55Houses one to four have long, narrow floor plans,
00:51:59and above each garage will be a mezzanine
00:52:01with a fourth bedroom.
00:52:02House five is an existing two-story home
00:52:06where upstairs is the kitchen, living, dining,
00:52:09and a fourth bedroom.
00:52:11But the room they're focusing on this week
00:52:13is the downstairs bathroom.
00:52:17How are you feeling?
00:52:18I'm feeling very...
00:52:21Overwhelmed.
00:52:23Positive.
00:52:25Excited.
00:52:30Like throwing up.
00:52:32Sounds like the perfect time to call in the cavalry
00:52:35because I've got some great news for all the teams.
00:52:38Hello, hello, hello.
00:52:40Scotty.
00:52:41Oh, hello.
00:52:42Have you met Tom?
00:52:43No, we haven't.
00:52:44Not properly.
00:52:45How you going? Tom, nice to meet you.
00:52:46How are you, mate?
00:52:47Nice to meet you.
00:52:47Good, how are you?
00:52:48Hi, I'm Mimi.
00:52:49Hi, Mimi, how you going?
00:52:50Nice to meet you.
00:52:51Great news is that I am paying for all your plumbing
00:52:55and electrical.
00:52:56Oh, thank you.
00:52:57Good for you.
00:52:58You're a champion.
00:52:59Generous.
00:52:59So, if you're having a wet area,
00:53:00Tommy and Marty and the team
00:53:03will be here to do all your plumbing.
00:53:05Now, have you looked at your plans?
00:53:06Yes, we have.
00:53:07Right, have you worked out the biggest problem you've got?
00:53:11What's above you, do you reckon?
00:53:13It's a roof, a ceiling, another story.
00:53:15Above that, what room's above it?
00:53:19Another bathroom.
00:53:20One of your plans.
00:53:20Yes, there's another bathroom.
00:53:24So, what does that mean for you guys?
00:53:26This is what you're gonna learn on the job, right?
00:53:28You're gonna plan ahead.
00:53:30So, before you put your ceiling in here,
00:53:32for this bathroom, you need to plumb that up.
00:53:34So, you've got to plan two rooms today.
00:53:37You're gonna lay out this bathroom,
00:53:39and you're gonna lay out that bathroom.
00:53:41One of the first major obstacles that we had to face,
00:53:47and we were stressed.
00:53:48It's just the fact that Mimi has to leave me by myself,
00:53:51go for a two-hour drive,
00:53:52go for an 11 o'clock appointment,
00:53:56a two o'clock appointment,
00:53:58and then a two-hour drive back.
00:53:59It's almost like I'll be solo all day.
00:54:02So, I went off to race in Heidelberg.
00:54:05What's going on, Christian?
00:54:07Oh, just a bit of a tough day, one.
00:54:10Very tough.
00:54:11The curveball got thrown at us.
00:54:12I'm quite positive Mimi will be like,
00:54:14ah!
00:54:15Happy birthday to you.

00:55:49One, long drive.
00:55:50Two, don't know what the hell I'm doing.
00:55:55Good morning.
00:55:56Welcome.
00:55:57Good morning.
00:55:58Oh my God, it's still morning.
00:55:58It feels like it's been a week already.
00:55:59You must have been busy already.
00:56:00Hi, I'm Mimi.
00:56:02But the staff at Rees were incredible.
00:56:05Okay, this is the plan that I had for you guys.
00:56:08Where did you want the bath at?
00:56:09There?
00:56:10Okay.
00:56:11This is magic.
00:56:12Christian and Mimi have the biggest bathroom
00:56:14to work with this week.
00:56:15They're using the space to create a luxurious bath
00:56:18and shower zone with a bespoke timber ceiling
00:56:21featuring inbuilt lights over the vanity.
00:56:25I've had a lot of self-doubt in how I am as a person
00:56:29and how people perceive me.
00:56:30But I feel like I'm really sure of myself on the block.
00:56:34Yes!
00:56:36Someone like me.
00:56:38We definitely love an arch.
00:56:40Yeah?
00:56:40So we like the idea of the two separates
00:56:43above each person.
00:56:44Okay.
00:56:45That's the other option, but it's a lot bolder.
00:56:48I'm a bold girl, so that is definitely something
00:56:51I don't mind.
00:56:52And I say, can I have this?
00:56:53This, this, this?
00:56:54Lock it in.
00:56:55Lock it in?
00:56:56Perfect, done.
00:56:57And I packed it up.
00:56:58Thank God.
00:57:00I think that I'm evolving
00:57:03and it's happening on the block.
00:57:05The arch theme that you're going for.
00:57:06Also taking in his first Rees experience
00:57:09is IT guy Hape.
00:57:11So the key item, obviously the bathroom,
00:57:13is a bath, a bangin' bath.
00:57:16So with the bath,
00:57:18Chapman Rickey definitely wants a flute-type bath.
00:57:21Yeah, that makes sense.
00:57:22I wanted a flute bath.
00:57:23Flutes.
00:57:24Boy, did they have a flute bath there.
00:57:26Oh, yes.
00:57:27This style.
00:57:28The fluted.
00:57:29That is exactly it.
00:57:30And all around as well.
00:57:32How much are we looking at here?
00:57:33Well, it's looking good
00:57:33and you're looking good in it.
00:57:35It's probably, it's one of the most expensive ones
00:57:37we do have at around the $12,000 mark.
00:57:40So, Rick and you have some expensive pay.
00:57:4412 Gs?
00:57:45But look at it.
00:57:45It looks like it's worth it.
00:57:46Yeah.
00:57:47You're not wrong.
00:57:49Righto.
00:57:52Let's do it.
00:57:52Do it.
00:57:53Lock it in.
00:57:54Lock it in, mate.
00:57:55Let's get it on.
00:57:56Let's do it.
00:57:57Rock and roll.
00:57:57Beautiful.
00:57:58Cool?
00:57:59The 12 grand bath will be the star
00:58:01of Hayden and Rickey's main bathroom
00:58:03who are creating a scandy beach house
00:58:05with a light timber vanity and sage green feature tiles.
00:58:11Damn, I'm dying.
00:58:12I didn't wanna bathe you.
00:58:13I was good.
00:58:14You'd wanna come out clean.
00:58:16Oh!
00:58:22Oh, I'm seeing Reese.
00:58:24Yeah, I see the blue and the red.
00:58:27My God, I actually made it.
00:58:28Holy hell.
00:58:34So, when I got to Reese, I knew I had a plan.
00:58:38Black.
00:58:39Gimme black.
00:58:41Do you have any inspiration or anything
00:58:42that you'd like to run through with me to begin with or?
00:58:45Black, black, black, black, black, black, black.
00:58:47All black?
00:58:47Yeah.
00:58:48Easy, okay.
00:58:49Is it?
00:58:50The only thing Brad said to me
00:58:51is our bath needs to have an overflow.
00:58:55I don't know what that means.
00:58:57I've got a setting that has the bath
00:58:58and the vanity all together.
00:59:00She showed me a really luxe black matte bath
00:59:04with a white inside.
00:59:06So, what do you think about that one there?
00:59:08Yeah, I like.
00:59:09It was the most perfect bath for me.
00:59:12Matching basin.
00:59:15So, like that kind of sort of shape.
00:59:17I then had my whole vision planned out.
00:59:19And black and then black, black, black, black, black.
00:59:21Black, black, black, black, black, black, black, black.
00:59:24Amazing.
00:59:25With that bath there,
00:59:26your waist can be black or white?
00:59:28Black.
00:59:29Black, done.
00:59:30I was like, cool.
00:59:31So, it comes with an overflow?
00:59:33Oh, okay, sure.
00:59:34So, your bath has to have an overflow?
00:59:36Yeah.
00:59:37Okay.
00:59:37So, this is where it becomes a little bit different?
00:59:39She was like, no.
00:59:40I was like, oh, okay.
00:59:41So, we'll just buy it separately?
00:59:44Apparently, that's not a thing.
00:59:46You can't just buy a separate overflow for a bath.
00:59:49So, this little space here is for
00:59:51if you left your water running and it overflowed,
00:59:54it would drain back out through the waist.
00:59:56Hold on.
00:59:57Let me make a phone call.
00:59:58Yeah, absolutely.
00:59:59Absolutely.
01:00:00That's something just to double check.
01:00:01So, she rings me and says...
01:00:05Husband.
01:00:06Wifey.
01:00:09Why do we need an overflow on the bath?
01:00:11Because there's no floor waste.
01:00:13Okay, so we're having a floor waste
01:00:15because my bath doesn't come with an overflow.
01:00:19Babe, the undersled are not done to take one.
01:00:22Bradley.
01:00:25I'm telling you, the bath that I want
01:00:29doesn't come with an overflow.
01:00:32And I'm not having a white bath.
01:00:41I'm now mad.
01:00:44So now, it's my job to try and make what she's picked.
01:00:50Black.
01:00:51If it's possible.
01:00:52So, I'm running around like a headless jook now,
01:00:54trying to get the plumbers in to see if it can be done.
01:00:59Do you need me?
01:01:00Yeah.
01:01:01What do you need?
01:01:02Mrs. is being a pain.
01:01:03The only bath she wants doesn't have an overflow.
01:01:07Right.
01:01:08Can we get a floor waste?
01:01:11Um, if we cut the slab up.
01:01:13Anything's possible.
01:01:15I know.
01:01:16It's just time.
01:01:18Time's not your friend here.
01:01:20Just got to cut the slab up,
01:01:22cut a junction into your drain.
01:01:24Put it all back.
01:01:25Put it all back together.
01:01:29You got to think of your time, too.
01:01:34She won't talk to me now.
01:01:36She wants what she wants, and then it doesn't work.
01:01:39But she knows that it's something
01:01:41that I would normally be able to fix.
01:01:44So then she knows it's possible,
01:01:46which then lets her try.
01:01:50And where's the bath going to be over there?
01:01:52I've got Tommy and Dan in here.
01:01:55Tell me you've found another bath.
01:01:57No, I haven't found a different bath.
01:01:58No, not possible.
01:02:01Well, the difference is not finishing or a bath.
01:02:07Not, it's a bit dramatic.
01:02:10Oh, my God.
01:02:14While having a trade on the block is a big advantage,
01:02:17being a stylist is just as valuable.
01:02:19♪ I got my mind set on you ♪
01:02:22♪ I got my mind set on you ♪
01:02:23An owner of her own interiors business,
01:02:26House Two's Courtney is a force to be reckoned with.
01:02:29♪ Got my mind set on you ♪
01:02:31We know our roles.
01:02:32Yeah.
01:02:33We know our roles.
01:02:34I couldn't style to save my life.
01:02:35Yeah.
01:02:36Courtney's really good at styling,
01:02:37so why not stick to what we're good at, right?
01:02:40And we did with Beaumont Tiles.
01:02:41That was our first appointment,
01:02:42which I guess like set the aesthetic.
01:02:46Yeah, it did.
01:02:47Yeah.
01:02:48A very expensive aesthetic.
01:02:50♪ But it's gonna take money ♪
01:02:54♪ All right ♪
01:02:55I'm thinking a bit more of like
01:02:56a modern Mediterranean look.
01:02:57All right.
01:02:58Mediterranean.
01:02:59Mediterranean.
01:03:00So like earthy tones, natural materials.
01:03:03We got travertine tiles for the walls.
01:03:07All right, so we're locking in the mineral travertine.
01:03:09Perfect.
01:03:11And they're real travertine tiles.
01:03:13Like, you know something,
01:03:13you get the cheap tiles and you see...
01:03:16What?
01:03:16Courtney doesn't look at a price tag.
01:03:19You don't.
01:03:23Four walls is $15,200.
01:03:25In tiles alone.
01:03:26That is real pricey.
01:03:28Have they got the right dimensions?
01:03:30Yep.
01:03:31I'm happy to spend the money.
01:03:32Do three walls.
01:03:33I'll price up three walls,
01:03:34see what they come back with.
01:03:36And then what I didn't get here,
01:03:37but I will incorporate,
01:03:39is a nice marble on top of the vanity.
01:03:42So that will give like a bit of a contrast.
01:03:43And is the marble included in that price?
01:03:45No.
01:03:46Marble is not included in that price.
01:03:49Don't give me those eyes.
01:03:52We're not gonna be complaining when everyone's like,
01:03:55wow, that's a really beautiful premium bathroom.
01:04:01Chantel?
01:04:02Yes.
01:04:03Next question, black toilet.
01:04:05We don't have a black toilet.
01:04:07And Chantel's like, no black toilets.
01:04:11It's not a thing.
01:04:15Bradley.
01:04:15I love it.
01:04:16I can't get a black toilet.
01:04:19So the whole thing's out the window anyways.
01:04:22And I was like, I don't want in the bathroom anymore.
01:04:24I don't even want to do a bathroom
01:04:25because I can't get a black toilet.
01:04:30I'm done.
01:04:32My whole vision has just been annihilated.
01:04:37However, I'm just gonna have to keep looking
01:04:39and searching for what I might be able to find.
01:04:42I'm not gonna give up.
01:04:51Surely I'm close.
01:04:53I was stuck in the car forever.
01:04:56So I was not only late to Reece.
01:04:58Reece have a really good 3D planner.
01:05:00Yes.
01:05:01So we're gonna mock up the room
01:05:02and have a finished bathroom in approximately half an hour.
01:05:05Amazing.
01:05:05That actually is such a relief.
01:05:08I was also late to Beaumont.
01:05:12I got there about 15 minutes before closing.
01:05:15What do you do with that?
01:05:17Hi.
01:05:17Hi, hello.
01:05:18I'm Michelle.
01:05:19What I did with that is I told the lovely Michelle
01:05:23at Beaumont, I would really like a feature tile,
01:05:26something maybe green.
01:05:27I'm also not opposed to kind of like fish tails.
01:05:31Sort of pattern.
01:05:31She showed me what she had in stock.
01:05:33So something like that is a beautiful mottled marble.
01:05:36This is really spot on, to be honest.
01:05:39Oh, that's good.
01:05:40I really love this.
01:05:41And then I look at the beautiful floor tiles
01:05:44and the tiles that we were going to do
01:05:46on the rest of the three walls.
01:05:47And I go, great, that one.
01:05:50This tile with this feature wall.
01:05:54What goes wrong?
01:05:55Not in stock.
01:05:56We don't have that tile.
01:05:57Really?
01:05:58Hey, can I not come back tomorrow morning?
01:06:01No, we have to put the order in today.
01:06:02Have to tonight?
01:06:03I'm sorry.
01:06:03It's because they pick tomorrow for delivery Wednesday.
01:06:07Yeah.
01:06:08Can I take this over there?
01:06:09Yeah, of course.
01:06:11And my mood plummeted.
01:06:15And they don't have anything that I want in stock.
01:06:18And they're being like super rude as well.
01:06:20Sorry?
01:06:21They're just being super rude.
01:06:22Really?
01:06:23Yeah.
01:06:24So I picked a tile.
01:06:26I wasn't sure if I was 100% sold on it,
01:06:29but I was like, this is the tile I'm getting.
01:06:31That's good.
01:06:32No matter what we do, we make it work.
01:06:33I knew it was going to be beautiful.
01:06:38It's going down.
01:06:40I'm yelling timber.
01:06:42You better move.
01:06:43You better dance.
01:06:46As the block is now officially a construction site,
01:06:48it's sadly no longer safe to camp on the concrete.
01:06:52So I've come up with a plan B.
01:06:54I heard that you had a bit of a rough night on the slab.
01:06:56It was a little bit rough.
01:06:58Yeah, Scotty came around and informed us
01:07:00that we would no longer be sleeping on our concrete slab.
01:07:04Come with me and I'll show you the site.
01:07:06All right, let's go.
01:07:07And you can relocate.
01:07:08Okay.
01:07:09Come on.
01:07:09Sounded like a pretty prime location actually.
01:07:11And to be fair, I was just happy
01:07:14to be off the concrete slab, so.
01:07:16Their new campsite is right next door,
01:07:18through the trees, beside the dam.
01:07:22Have a look at this campsite.
01:07:24Okay.
01:07:26Oh, this is a bit better.
01:07:27There's a wharf.
01:07:28Look, there's wildlife.
01:07:29Oh, there is.
01:07:30Paradise.
01:07:31Yep, it is.
01:07:32I'm liking it.
01:07:35Had to pack up the tent we just set up the night before
01:07:39and move it over to the billabong.
01:07:41To the lagoon.
01:07:47We had to move our tent from our construction site
01:07:50to out on the pond.
01:07:52Which was so nice.
01:07:54Yeah, Christian and Mimi helped us move our tent.
01:07:56Just all at once.
01:07:57Everything inside, we're like,
01:07:58we are not taking this down.
01:08:00Everyone grab a corner, pick it up on the lake.
01:08:03Now we've got water views.
01:08:05Yeah, we've got lake views now.
01:08:12So as the sun begins to set on the first day of the block,
01:08:15our blockheads settle into their new home,
01:08:18tent city.
01:08:20And it wouldn't be a proper start to the block
01:08:22without yours truly throwing a barbie.
01:08:25Hey!
01:08:27Oh, it's Scotty.
01:08:28Does this happen every night, Scotty?
01:08:29Not every night.
01:08:31You're very privileged.
01:08:33Scotty did put on a barbecue in our new digs.
01:08:35It was a delicious barbecue.
01:08:37And the man can tong.
01:08:38Like, he can turn a snag.
01:08:40He's a tong man.
01:08:41So, he got his tong on and cooked us up some snags.
01:08:47Thanks, mate.
01:08:49Snag?
01:08:49Ah, yeah, that'd be great.
01:08:53This is so yummy.
01:08:54Thanks, Scotty.
01:08:56That first night, it's like,
01:08:58okay, yep, we're on the block now.
01:09:00We're not just coasting.
01:09:03It's like game on straight away.
01:09:05But having that barbecue was a nice wind down for us.
01:09:08Having Scotty come and just having a barbecue
01:09:11with all the other contestants,
01:09:13just sitting around, getting to know each other a bit better.
01:09:15It was a great way to end our day.
01:09:17You've really hit the block now, haven't you?
01:09:19Like, you're eating a steak like Fred Flintstone.
01:09:22Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:09:23Just got to have a nice family dinner,
01:09:24family block dinner, it was good.
01:09:27We have known each other for,
01:09:28I was counting back the other day,
01:09:30I thought it was 20 years,
01:09:30but it's actually, I think it's probably 23.
01:09:34I think some personalities bring the best
01:09:36out of another personality,
01:09:37and that's sort of how our friendship.
01:09:39We bounce off each other big time.
01:09:40And he's my family.
01:09:42I don't really have a family,
01:09:44and I haven't for probably about 16 years.
01:09:47My early years was a bit rough.
01:09:50There were some issues going on at home.
01:09:52Alcohol and domestic violence was pretty rife.
01:09:55And I got some advice from Victorian police
01:09:59that I should probably find somewhere else better to live.
01:10:02People sort of say, you know, it must have been hard.
01:10:05It's never hard to live in a really tough environment
01:10:09that you don't enjoy being in.
01:10:11So it wasn't like I was leaving my family,
01:10:14because for mine, you don't treat your family like that.
01:10:18So I really heavily invest in my mates.
01:10:21I love them, care for them, I'm loyal to them.
01:10:23And I give them everything that,
01:10:25the same you would do for your family.
01:10:27I know it's a bit cliche.
01:10:29I would love to be half responsible
01:10:31for helping him be able to provide
01:10:34a really life-changing life for his newborn baby
01:10:38and his wife, to be fair.
01:10:40And then that'd definitely guarantee me
01:10:41a spot at the Christmas table for years to come, for sure.
01:10:44There's absolutely no doubt in my mind.
01:10:48RRRRR!
01:10:50SIREN WAILS
01:10:52What better way to start day two on the block
01:10:55than an exclusive waterfront campsite,
01:10:58next to a construction site?
01:11:00ALL SING
01:11:02Day two begins.
01:11:04Another day in paradise.
01:11:06SONG CONTINUES
01:11:08Morning. Morning.
01:11:11How was day one?
01:11:13Stressful.
01:11:14What's planned for today, then?
01:11:16I'm re-shopping and re-buying everything
01:11:18that I purchased yesterday.
01:11:20I was just like, I'm not gonna stop.
01:11:23Like, I'm gonna keep trying to get what I actually want
01:11:25because I don't want to present a room
01:11:27that doesn't represent me.
01:11:28And I say me because Brad doesn't get a choice, so.
01:11:32But yeah, so now I'm hoping that things are in stock
01:11:36and I can make some phone calls and make some changes,
01:11:38or I don't know what I'll do if I can't.
01:11:43SIREN WAILS
01:11:45The linchpin of Kylie's vision is the elusive black toilet.
01:11:49And she thinks she's sourced one online,
01:11:51as long as plumber Tom can make it work.
01:11:53So, have you bought this?
01:11:55Not yet because I needed to know, so that's good.
01:11:57Yeah, we can make it work.
01:11:59I'll make sure I get it. You need this for your roughing.
01:12:02Yeah, I know. You need that before you're waterproof.
01:12:04Yeah. Yesterday, everywhere I went,
01:12:05it was like, no, no black, can't have that, can't have this.
01:12:08Tuesday is gonna be my day.
01:12:11I've ended up stumbling across a perfect tile with Constantino.
01:12:15They actually, fortunately, have in stock the large black tile
01:12:22in a marble look that has, like, this really cool grey flex through it.
01:12:25And finally, a black bath with an overflow.
01:12:29Freestanding.
01:12:30Look, it says in stock.
01:12:32Yes, so I got your contact
01:12:34because I'm chasing a bath that I'm hoping you have.
01:12:37Um, look, it's the matte black with the white.
01:12:41Marietta.
01:12:43With the overflow.
01:12:46Yeah, we've got 12.
01:12:48I'll take all 12.
01:12:50No, I just need one for now.
01:12:52Got it from Shots.
01:12:57Great. Gonna be delivered Friday. Amazing.
01:13:04Where's my insulation order?
01:13:07Nothing was going our way on Tuesday.
01:13:09I've noticed everyone has the insulation but me.
01:13:11It was like, OK, bathrooms are hard.
01:13:15Hopefully, it's not halfway back to CSR in the truck
01:13:18because no-one didn't even see the truck come by.
01:13:22Yeah, that was the iceberg under the water.
01:13:26Timber should have been here... He told me 8 o'clock.
01:13:29We've just lost three hours not having the timber here.
01:13:32I know.
01:13:33Unfortunately, after chasing up a few times,
01:13:36our timber order didn't come until about midday.
01:13:39Timber's coming now.
01:13:40I spoke to the truckie from yesterday.
01:13:42He answered. He's fine.
01:13:43He's like, it's on its way now, mate.
01:13:45Perfect.
01:13:46So that set us back a long way.
01:13:48I put blame on myself,
01:13:50maybe getting my timber order in too late on the Monday.
01:13:53Jesse is a very experienced carpenter
01:13:55who's worked on many high-end homes,
01:13:57so he should know that if you're going to be
01:14:00So he should know that if you don't get your order in on time,
01:14:04your timber won't arrive in time.
01:14:08What's happened? Your timber delivery is finally here?
01:14:11Finally here.
01:14:12So we've... It's rocked up, which is good for the boys.
01:14:17Yeah, that Tuesday was hectic,
01:14:19and I think I just let it get to me a bit too much, for sure.
01:14:23Paige, on the other hand, is experiencing a very different day.
01:14:27We're all set. Drive safely.
01:14:30I will. Thank you.
01:14:31It's been fun, but now I've got to...
01:14:33She's heading to Melbourne
01:14:34for lights and styling supplies from Freedom.
01:14:37I have been very confident this week, just doing my thing.
01:14:41I'm looking for the bathroom area.
01:14:44You've had the confidence just to make choices all week.
01:14:48Oh, that smells so good.
01:14:50I was having a really confident week,
01:14:52and I was so happy that that was my first week on the block.
01:14:55I am at Beacon to sort out all of our lights
01:14:59for our very first bathroom today.
01:15:02So it's a smart downlight.
01:15:03Yeah. So it runs through their Google programming.
01:15:05I mean, I think I was an absolute sucker
01:15:09for the Google automated lighting.
01:15:11So, hey, Google, turn on the bathroom light.
01:15:13You can have all different colours if you want to.
01:15:15Hey, Google, turn the lights to cool white.
01:15:18That's kind of really cool. Yeah.
01:15:21I felt amazing.
01:15:22And I'm not usually a positive person.
01:15:24Really? Huh?
01:15:28My wonderful fiancé.
01:15:31Hi, Patrick. Hello, you.
01:15:34Where are you?
01:15:35I am 35 minutes away from the site.
01:15:40Cool.
01:15:41Um, I was going... Don't.
01:15:43Huh?
01:15:44Don't see you.
01:15:45I'm dying to see you too.
01:15:46It's so hard being away from you.
01:15:49We're supposed to have, like...
01:15:50We're going to have shakes up today,
01:15:52and we're not even going to get f***ing warm.
01:15:54F***ing walls up today, you know?
01:15:58We finished Tuesday with sub four still incomplete.
01:16:02Walls weren't up.
01:16:03So that was a bit of a shock to the system.
01:16:07I can't... I don't know how we're going to do this week.
01:16:08I don't know how we're going to finish it.
01:16:10Finish the room?
01:16:12Yep.
01:16:13It was the start of it all.
01:16:14Start of it all, really, yeah.
01:16:19Baby.
01:16:20Babe, where...
01:16:21Where are you?
01:16:23What do you... What do you mean, where am I?
01:16:26Are you far away?
01:16:28Far away from the block, yes.
01:16:30Oh, we're just getting unstuck everywhere.
01:16:32Anyway, I'll talk about it when I get there.
01:16:34Yeah.
01:16:35Love you, bye.
01:16:36Love you, bye.
01:16:37While Carly has had laser focus on obtaining her black items,
01:16:41she hasn't paid much attention
01:16:42to how they would all fit into the floor plan.
01:16:45And the selections of a large vanity and a big bath
01:16:48have thrown a spanner in the works.
01:16:51So while Carly has been out,
01:16:53Brad has swapped the toilet and the bath in the floor plan
01:16:56in order to fit everything in.
01:17:00I guess when I have a vision, I have a vision,
01:17:03and that's all I want.
01:17:05I don't like it.
01:17:07Your 1800 vanity will hit the bath.
01:17:11It doesn't fit.
01:17:12She'd been trying to build a bathroom from a picture at Reece
01:17:18that had a far larger dimension...
01:17:20The scale was wrong.
01:17:21...than what I was working with.
01:17:26Whatever.
01:17:28Anyways, all I was trying to do was make your bath fit in a room...
01:17:34With my 1.8 metre vanity.
01:17:37Yeah, so just monster vanity, big bath,
01:17:42but it's just not working.
01:17:45I've been trying to make this work every step of the way,
01:17:49and then something changes,
01:17:51and then the whole thing shifts.
01:17:52It's just not working.
01:17:54I don't think you understand at all how many times
01:17:57I've come down here and said,
01:17:59you are way behind.
01:18:00Tomorrow, you need to just be flat stick.
01:18:04No matter how much I tried to explain it to you,
01:18:06you were too hot-headed to listen.
01:18:09I'm not having the toilet there.
01:18:12And then I eventually compromised if we could move
01:18:17the toilet behind the door,
01:18:19and we were deleting the bath.
01:18:22Delete the bath. That doesn't make sense.
01:18:24Okay.
01:18:28Bath's out.
01:18:29Bath's out. Get rid of that.
01:18:31And then I was fine with the rest of it.
01:18:33You know what? Just do it.
01:18:35I'm bowing out.
01:18:38Like, I've picked everything,
01:18:40so then you can just deal with getting crucified for the layout.
01:18:43Oh, the wife.
01:18:44Hey, bubs.
01:18:45I'm in early labour.
01:18:48Right-o.
01:18:49I'm going to be an uncle.
01:18:50Tomorrow...
01:18:52I was waterproof on Wednesday,
01:18:53and now it's water-breaking Wednesday.
01:18:55Bathrooms aren't all their delivery.
01:18:58Paige has grand plans.
01:19:00We've come up with a really good floor plan.
01:19:02But not everyone...
01:19:04You're probably not on the right track.
01:19:06...is on the same page.
01:19:09People in WA don't want to be on the same page.
01:19:12People in WA don't want to be near their kids.
01:19:14Good luck with it, okay?
01:19:15He's a great architect,
01:19:17but I actually don't give a...
01:19:19...about his opinion.
01:19:20Oh.
