Short filmTranscript
00:00Welcome back to the block.
00:13Kitchen Week is in full swing today, with cabinetry, ovens and other appliances being
00:17installed in all our new holiday home builds.
00:20But if you had the distinct feeling there was something missing at the block today,
00:25well, you'd be 100% right.
00:29And that's because the block is currently 100% blockhead-free.
00:33They're all down at the Woolamai Surf Lifesaving Club, putting the finishing touches on our
00:40latest block renovation, an epic two-team charity challenge event that has been four
00:46days in the making.
00:51In case you missed it...
00:52I'm actually getting very, very grumpy with the ocean team.
00:57I made Keithers back to oversee the challenge.
00:59I'm going to go back to the block and be the blockinator again.
01:08Where have you guys been?
01:09We've been here.
01:10We're going to be at the challenge tomorrow.
01:11So far, you guys have done literally zero.
01:15Maddie and Charlotte's builder, Zach...
01:17This team dynamic isn't going to work.
01:19Sorry, guys.
01:20...decided to depart the competition.
01:23It's just not for me.
01:25I would have wanted things to end.
01:27And just when you thought the others might be supportive of our newcomers...
01:31You know the girls have asked Kyle to be their chippy?
01:35Uh, nope.
01:36You reckon Duncan was good at playing the game?
01:39Kyle never lost any of them.
01:46Really?
01:47So, Dunk on steroids.
01:50Oh, ****.
01:52More about that later.
01:53But for now, here's what you need to know about the challenge.
01:57One, two, three, four.
01:59Breathe new life into the main function area up in the surf club,
02:03which I divided into two zones.
02:08On our team, we had Courtney and Grant...
02:10Whoo!
02:11...and Maddie and Charlotte.
02:13That left Ricky and Hayden and Carly and Brad.
02:17So to even things up, we called in some certified block royalty.
02:21Whoo!
02:22Kyle and Kara.
02:24Dream come true.
02:28A massive $10,000 cash from Combank.
02:35The Ocean team are taking on the Western side,
02:37which has the function space and lounge areas,
02:40transforming their space into a relaxed living area
02:43with Grafico wall art, comfy couches,
02:46and some functional round tables.
02:49The Island team are tackling the Eastern side,
02:51which has the bar and dining areas,
02:54sprucing up the bar, adding some tall tables and stools,
02:58and creating a custom bench seat
03:00that runs the length of the side wall.
03:03Now that you're all up to speed,
03:05let's crack on with the challenge.
03:07Block's a tough game, innit?
03:08Oh, it's tough.
03:09Bit knackered?
03:10Yeah, a bit knackered.
03:11Toughen up.
03:12You've got one hour to go, boys.
03:13One hour.
03:14We're not on track at this point,
03:16but I reckon we'll get there.
03:18There's just a few flat packs to put together.
03:22Bench seats.
03:23I don't know how we're going to get all this together.
03:25The other team looked like they were having
03:27a really hard time building lots of flat packs.
03:29Even Shelly got involved.
03:31You've got the super case.
03:32We do.
03:33They've got Shelly.
03:34I don't really think this is a fair fight, to be honest.
03:37And while our block heads have been busy
03:39with the main function room,
03:41I've taken care of the kitchen.
03:43And Shelly has also been helping Nadia
03:45from the block shop downstairs in the bunk room.
03:48Oh, my goodness.
03:49What have you got there?
03:50Artwork from artist Blaine.
03:52Oh, I love it.
03:53And they've left the nine and six boys
03:55working on the outdoor deck in their wake.
03:57Now, Aidan, Simo, Marnie, and I
03:59are going to have a look around
04:01and see what's going on.
04:04...on the outdoor deck in their wake.
04:06Now, Aidan, Simo,
04:08you named your company Nine and Six
04:10because you built nine houses in six weeks.
04:12Yeah.
04:13One barbecue, two days.
04:15I know.
04:16What's going on?
04:17We'll be all right.
04:18We're close.
04:19I know.
04:20Righto.
04:23Do we want any of these hung up?
04:25Yeah, if we can get them.
04:31Just sort of doing a last few finishing touches
04:33of a bit of zhuzhing.
04:35Vacuuming.
04:36Oh, my God.
04:37Braden is vacuuming.
04:38Holy.
04:40Everyone keeps walking on my bloody carpet.
04:42Don't even think.
04:43Hey, boots, boots, boots.
04:45You want them off?
04:46Why not?
04:47Mate, you just walked through a corridor of sand.
04:49Where are you going?
04:51Where I want to go.
04:52Nah, stop walking through the door, please.
04:54Could have easily gone through the kitchen.
04:56For **** sake.
04:57Just trying to clean the walkway
04:59and everyone just using it as a thoroughfare
05:02because they're in a hurry.
05:07And the gifts keep on coming.
05:09All right.
05:10Hi, Kirstie.
05:11You're amazing.
05:12That is beautiful, Kirstie.
05:13Come on through.
05:14Let's see if we can find a spot on the wall for it.
05:16I want to take the tags off.
05:29Here we go.
05:31Okay.
05:33Tools down.
05:41That's done.
05:42Good job.
05:43Wow.
05:44What a transformation.
05:45In just four days,
05:47our blockheads have turned this function room
05:49from old and cold to modern and inviting.
05:52Okay, gang.
05:54Your challenge this week was to breathe new life
05:56into the main function area
05:58of the Woolamai Surf Club,
06:00which I believe you absolutely have
06:02and you've done a great job.
06:04Now, the winner of today's challenge
06:06is going to share $10,000 from CommBank,
06:09which is absolutely fantastic.
06:12Now, Jase, president of the club,
06:14what do you think, mate?
06:16It's amazing.
06:17I just can't believe the transformation
06:19that you've achieved in such a short time.
06:21It's incredible.
06:22We're so grateful.
06:23Great.
06:24Terrific.
06:25I'm glad you're happy.
06:26Now, that is not all, buddy,
06:29you've got a fantastic little gift for the club.
06:31Lisa, over to you.
06:33Right.
06:34So, this grant from CommBank
06:36will help the Woolamai Beach Surf Lifesaving Club
06:39to continue its important work
06:41that you do within the community
06:43and to help create a brighter future for all.
06:45So thank you so much.
06:46Thank you so much.
06:47Congratulations.
06:49Wow.
06:50To judge today's challenge,
06:52we are bringing in the big guns.
06:55Interior designer extraordinaire,
06:58expert judge over 17 seasons of The Block,
07:02please put your hands together for Neil Whittaker.
07:05CHEERING
07:12Neil Whittaker has been a judging powerhouse on The Block
07:15for many years,
07:16joining us way back in 2010.
07:19Clever idea, beautifully done.
07:21Revered style guru,
07:22Neil is also widely known for his love of...
07:25A lamp?
07:26A lamp.
07:28Of course you need a lamp.
07:29Couple of great lamps.
07:30I have a lamp here, I have a lamp here.
07:32Lamp.
07:33Lamp.
07:34Lamp.
07:35There is still no bloody lamp.
07:37LAUGHTER
07:38All right, Mr Lamp.
07:39I need a...
07:40In a living room, I need a lamp.
07:42I love Neil.
07:44I just like...
07:45Anyone on TV is a celebrity to me,
07:47so when I see them in real life,
07:48it's like...
07:49insane.
07:50That means you're going to be a celebrity.
07:52I'll scream when I see myself on TV.
07:54Lovely to see you, Neil.
07:56So good to see...
07:57So many of you.
07:58Wow.
07:59You've got a tough job today, mate.
08:01This is one half of the room,
08:02and that is the other half of the room.
08:04The line's right down through here.
08:06You guys get out there and cook on that barbie
08:08and have some snags
08:09while Neil does his thing.
08:10Yes.
08:11Do what you do best, Neil.
08:13I cannot wait, I cannot wait.
08:15Forever young,
08:17I want to be forever young.
08:21Our favourite part of our zone
08:23was definitely the lounge area
08:25with the Nintendo Switch
08:27and the games
08:28and the books.
08:29We loved it all.
08:31Let's move right into the space here, Scotty.
08:33Sure, let's do that.
08:34Let's get a good feel of this.
08:36Well, Neil, there used to be
08:37a survey to the kitchen here.
08:38Yeah.
08:39And then they've graphicated that wall
08:41which is very nice.
08:42I love the old image.
08:43I love it.
08:44It's a beautiful photograph.
08:45I did notice it's not this beach.
08:48No, but they do also patrol that beach
08:50and help out if there's any dramas
08:52down that way.
08:53And I was speaking to Jase actually
08:55about the idea of surfing here
08:56in Phillip Island.
08:57Apparently it started
08:58at Summerlin Beach.
08:59So there is still
09:00a connection there
09:01which is good.
09:02I wondered if it was
09:03a massive faux pas or something
09:04but no, it's not.
09:05It's connected.
09:06I mean, it's a beautiful image
09:07and it kind of sets the tone
09:08doesn't it for this?
09:09Yep.
09:10I love the way
09:11this side here
09:12kind of,
09:13it beautifully combines
09:14the old and the new.
09:15I mean, we've got
09:16all the really important memorabilia,
09:18the club insignia
09:19and everything there
09:20that you have to have
09:21because that's the story,
09:22isn't it, of this place.
09:23But they've also managed
09:24to make it feel
09:25contemporary and relaxed.
09:26Kind of clubby
09:29as in a sort of
09:30an old-fashioned club.
09:31But they've given it
09:32a bit of a modern twist
09:33which I really like.
09:34And they've got that
09:35perfect view
09:36as their backdrop,
09:37haven't they?
09:38Which the island team
09:39didn't quite have.
09:50I've probably got
09:51two favourite things.
09:52Probably the bar.
09:54And the bench seat
09:55that Cole's made.
09:56That is
09:57an amazing effort
09:58for him to put that together
09:59with Ricky's help.
10:03But to go past
10:04Christian Cole's bar,
10:05phew,
10:06pretty tough.
10:08This is beautiful timber.
10:09Isn't it?
10:10Oh my God.
10:11And this was all brand new.
10:12There was corrugated iron here.
10:13Yeah, I saw the photos.
10:14It's so beautiful.
10:15Oh my God.
10:16Christian Cole, of course.
10:17Of course.
10:19And also,
10:20we've got a glass washer
10:21over here for the bar
10:22plus a little sink
10:24and a little area there.
10:25Nice splashback,
10:26nice tiles.
10:27There's a lot more
10:28to show you
10:29on the other side
10:30of this bar
10:31because that is brand new.
10:32Wow.
10:33This is all new.
10:34Yes, and hand-built.
10:35Hand-built?
10:36In four days.
10:37Four days.
10:38Amongst other things.
10:39That's ridiculous, isn't it?
10:40Wow.
10:41Yeah.
10:42The ceiling fans.
10:43Oh, look,
10:44you can't go past
10:45a big-ass fan.
10:46Big-ass fans,
10:47white haiku fans.
10:48They are the best.
10:49They are.
10:50They've got a memorabilia
10:51section over here as well
10:52that they've done.
10:53That's what I mean
10:54about them respecting
10:55the story of this place.
10:56I mean,
10:57they've realised
10:58the importance
10:59of everything
11:00that's on these walls
11:01and you just
11:02can't take that away.
11:03I think that it
11:04allows the story
11:05of the club itself
11:06to shine through.
11:07Now, Neil,
11:08it's been a long day, mate,
11:09and the barbie's
11:10going out there.
11:11Yes.
11:12And I'm thinking
11:13about maybe a cold beer
11:14and maybe a snack.
11:15Yes.
11:16So can you
11:17get on with your job?
11:18Hurry up, Dean.
11:19No, no, no.
11:20That's what you're saying,
11:21isn't it?
11:22All right.
11:23See you in a minute.
11:24Enjoy the memorabilia.
11:25Stay up, OK?
11:26And not to be outdone,
11:27have a look
11:28at my back-of-house makeover.
11:29With a little help
11:30from V2C Furniture
11:31and Artists Lane,
11:32the Combank crew
11:33have made
11:34the bunk room
11:35look brand new.
11:36And the ripper job
11:37Keith and the 9 and 6 boys
11:38did building
11:39a windbreak wall
11:40to shield
11:41their brand new
11:42barbecue installation.
11:43OK.
11:44Before we announce
11:45the win,
11:46I'm going to invite
11:47in some clubbies
11:48that have been helping
11:49us out
11:50and hanging around.
11:51Come in, gang.
11:52Hey!
11:53Come in,
11:54fire through.
11:55Get a good look around.
11:56Woo!
11:57It was actually
11:58really awesome
11:59to see them all
12:00walk in
12:01and their faces.
12:02What's the colour
12:03on the walls?
12:04You could see
12:05the genuine reaction
12:06of the club members,
12:07like the kids in particular,
12:08how excited they were.
12:09So, gang,
12:10what do you think?
12:11It's great!
12:12It's great!
12:13It's great!
12:14It's great!
12:15It's great!
12:16It's great!
12:17It's great!

12:29It's great!
12:30Oh, Neil,
12:31we didn't bring you back
12:32for an easy one, did we?
12:33No, you did not,
12:34but I think
12:35that response
12:36tells us all we need to know
12:37about the end result.
12:38I'm really,
12:39really impressed.
12:40But, OK.
12:41The team that I think
12:42has really made
12:43the biggest impact
12:44on this build
12:45through the choices
12:46that they've made
12:47and the areas
12:48You have to be the Island team.
12:53Yeah!
12:54Sweet team.
12:55I love it.
12:56Winners are grinners.
12:57Who's the standout of your team?
12:58Kyle and Cara.
12:59The Sipper K.
13:00Congratulations, Island team.

13:02And of course, Kyle and Cara get Zip.

13:21So it's five each, you beauty.
13:22Now, the baby's going out there.
13:23We've had a really great day.
13:25Would you like to have a snag and a beer?
13:31Yes.
13:36Me too.
13:37Let's go.
13:38Yes.
13:39I love that smile.
13:40Good job, team.
13:41You did well.
13:42How good were the smiles on all the faces coming in?
13:43So good.
13:44The challenge at the Surf Life-Saver Club was one that we probably won't ever forget
13:46in our lives.
13:47To be able to deliver something for the community and to see the smiles and the faces of those
13:53That work at the club today at the end of it was probably the best part of it for me
13:57I don't think I'll ever forget the moment that I saw
14:02Colin Cara running down the beach in slow motion towards us one of the greatest moments of my life
14:18Yep, whenever there's a kind soul in need of renovation help our super case will be there
14:24Thanks again, Colin Cara. We couldn't have done it without you
14:30Coming up
14:33The Kingsman chocolate wheel is back with some massive prizes a full set of steak knives
14:40Shelly and I check out this year's cutting-edge kitchen designs the pan talks to the cooktop and tells you if it's getting too hot and
14:46Something's getting burnt. It'll turn it down
14:48And I lay down the law if you don't finish your planning this way I will blow up deluxe
14:54But before we get to all that we'll find out where the super K Karl has decided to join the house one team
15:01Look me and car have had a chat
15:16Morning comes what if I'm late got a big day gotta get home for the Sun
15:23How are you always the first to have coffees mate? I'm very sneaky
15:30Morning all another lovely day in paradise
15:34Your kitchens are coming along very well. I hear so benchtops today, so they'll be coming in
15:41So you'll need to make sure you've got a safe access for the guys to bring your stone benchtops in today
15:49The perils back we're gonna put even somewhere around about house five
15:52We're lifting stone for their benchtops, but we're also doing all the glass for house five
15:58So all the danger most of it here the other danger of course is Phil's back
16:04Congratulations to fill on number three daughter Phil was usually you know digging a hole somewhere putting concrete stay away from him
16:11That's it. Have a good day. Stay safe. Be nice to each other
16:16Yes kitchen week
16:18As many of our regular viewers would know kitchen week is regarded as one of the most important weeks on the block because
16:25Kitchen sell houses kitchen sell houses kitchens sell houses the kitchen in some cases sells the home
16:33in most cases
16:35Kitchens kitchens and master bedroom so houses and when it comes to kitchen constructions
16:40We've got some of the best in the business
16:42But delivering five state-of-the-art kitchens to the block in one week does require a lot of pre planning in fact
16:50It was way back in week two, but our blockheads had to lock in their design plans for their kitchens this week
16:56I think being in the big piece absolutely sells it. It's so beautiful. Yeah, yeah
17:00I love it completely solid thing and today with minimal access to their kitchens due to a heap of stone benches and
17:08Splashbacks going in our blockheads are left to play the waiting game
17:21As a feel when things are a bit slower is off-putting at all
17:24Yeah, when things are a bit slower definitely takes its toll sort of get real slack real quick
17:30Yep, you know what they say idle hands are the devil's tools
17:37And after a lovely sleep in Maddie in house one is just waking up to her very first day on the block without a builder
17:45How you feeling after yesterday? I actually feel quite relieved to be honest
17:51Which is an odd thing be considering where build a less now if you're only just joining us you're probably wondering what went down yesterday
18:00Sometimes the way that you come across is a little bit aggressive and a little bit intimidating
18:05I'm sorry that you can't you can't handle the way that I talk and then I've got a bit of a time
18:10That's not an apology
18:12All right. I think this is made decision. I think we're gonna be out
18:16We're gonna knock out along no longer work here with you guys. It's team dynamic isn't gonna work
18:21Sorry guys and with that Zack the builder marches off into the sunset
18:26Which brings us to today and Maddie and Charlotte's current predicament
18:32Another builder
18:34But
18:36We're at the challenge all day yesterday. So did not have time to look at that
18:40So hopefully today we'll get on to that
18:43Potentially we might
18:46Con Carl coming super case
18:50Turns out yesterday Maddie and Charlotte saw an opportunity to bring a revered block builder on board
18:57Maybe we could ask Kyle. It's a very very very long shot
19:01But we might as well throw out the the line and see if anything bites. No harm
19:09I would love the opportunity to help you guys out
19:12I really would if I can rejuggle a few things and make it work
19:16I would I would love to come on board, but just I don't want to give you yes. Yeah

19:59Yeah, yeah, there's just a lot going on in the outside

21:03Which contestants do you think are creating a winning room this week to cast your vote?
21:08All you have to do is head to the block website now and while you're there
21:12Don't forget to check out all of our amazing room galleries
21:16It's
21:21Kitchen week on the blog and as we fast approach the halfway point of the season a very specific line of questioning
21:28Usually starts to crop up
21:34Overall how is your budget looking it is not looking great about 10k in the red
21:40Maybe a little bit under the last time I checked. I think we were
21:44We're under five ten budget is not looking all that great still in the red in the budget overall budget is looking really good
21:53Well with most of our block budgets on the squeeze it's time for another edition of
21:58The Kingsman chocolate
22:12We had no idea what we're walking into but we saw some prizes on the board
22:20You always need more in your kitchen, don't you you can never have too much you can never have too much like you could need
22:27Maybe a full set of steak
22:33Is there more show
22:37On the Kingsman chocolate wheel, there's a thousand dollars from Todd
22:42$2,000 entry styling. Oh, what else is up here on the board Scottie?
22:46Oh
22:49Wow framing to a team
22:52With a timber frame
22:54Magnificent, isn't it?
22:56There was a thousand dollars from offshore design thousand dollars from tide
23:01$2,000 pantry styler. So look we were gunning for the TV, but it's the luck of the wheel
23:07I know you're a competitive bunch. So there's always going to be the challenge of who gets to spin first. So choose one card
23:14This is the number
23:16You'll be spinning choose one card
23:19Choose one card we pick number one and we have first I did a massive spin
23:31I
23:32Looked at the board and the first three things. I saw was steak knives chocolate and
23:37Fruitbowl, I was like we're gonna win one of those
23:47Oh
23:50That's a big spin
24:03Look on Mimi's face, which you
24:06I
24:14Wish I was disappointed and I actually turned around to him. I said mate you won like 140 green in your first nine days
24:19And he's like, oh, yeah, he's got like a hundred thousand dollars. It's been with cameras. You can buy whatever you want
24:28We want to be $15,000 wall art TV
24:35And challenge Kings I reckon the TV's yours
24:50We won $1,000 at offshore design, I think Maddie and Charlotte won the same prize
24:57I
25:01Think highly won the $2,000 worth of styling
25:07Which seemed like the biggest prize at the time until
25:14You know grants it before he's funny he's like I'm feeling very lucky today, let me spin it let me spin it
25:27Oh
25:37How about that for life that really gave us some energy we live I've never won anything in my life
25:42So I selected to come on the block out of like 40,000 people
25:46Yeah
25:51Thousand on a prime TV, thanks to Kingsman
25:58All right, I want to see your kitchens back you go
26:08And what better place to start out the back in a house for
26:12Where my little mate the block penguin still resides. We're definitely so far from coastal with this kitchen
26:20And look you're either gonna love it or you're gonna hate it
26:24House force kitchen is located adjacent to the laundry and powder room and blends into an open plan entertaining space
26:31along with the dining and living areas
26:34Kylie and Brad's galley style kitchen features black timbers a luxurious Laurent Cosentino marble stone island bench
26:41Gold sink and tap as well as cutting-edge spinning corner cabinets
26:48Wow
26:54The only word for your house is bougie
27:00Which is that profile there? Yeah, beautiful. Yes. It's just
27:06Bougie darling. I like what is it?
27:08You're bougie. What's that bougie darling? It's bougie. That's just so bougie. It's beautiful
27:15Yes, now I know a secret about Kingsman what they've come up with and that is this corner cup
27:20I know this because they're always innovating and I've got to work out how to do it. Oh, there we go. What's your show?
27:42The Scotty and Shelley walkarounds are always really beneficial to us
27:45It's nice to have I guess genuine feedback that are just from real people not actual designers
27:51We get the black kitchen because we love the black kitchen. Yes
27:55Finally, you've come into your own
27:57Finally getting it all now
27:59This is sort of where we were all going and this I'm really proud of you for sticking to your guns because obviously you designed
28:04This kitchen in week one
28:05Yeah, yeah, and then we saw a couple of bedrooms and a few bathrooms and everyone was questioning where you were going
28:12But you've stuck to your plan. Yeah, and now it does have a beautiful cohesive. It all ties. Yes. Yeah
28:18I know you trip rocking to there. All right, that's fine. That's what we're doing for this week
28:21Yeah, but when it comes to living and dining link
28:26Holy dooly the plaster bill. Yeah, you've got to go all of that all of that
28:32Yeah, and all everything I'm worried probably the biggest
28:35Plaster job in block history. I would have thought yeah, I know it's definitely gonna be a tricky one
28:40It's very daunting that they mentioned that our ceiling could be the biggest in block history looking up at the grandeur of it
28:46It's super overwhelming and we can't quite fathom how we're going to do it
28:52The interesting thing about kitchen week is that Kingsman do such a magnificent job that every kitchens incredible
28:58Yeah, yeah, and we start all the time. It's yours to lose
29:04But then you've had two yours to losers in the last two weeks
29:07You could have played the penguin twice and taken out two wins. Yeah, and you haven't okay Carly and Pratt
29:14Decision time. What are you gonna do with the bonus point penguin?
29:19Yeah
29:23I'm saving it. Thank you. Okay
29:27Carly and Brad. No, it's not quite close enough after that one Scotty. Copy that just play the penguin you imbecile
29:35Once the Penguins back in play we're giving other people the option to still win over us as much as yes
29:41You win $10,000 if you do win
29:44Putting it back in play give somebody else if they win it
29:48The same chance at winning $10,000 over us
29:51So we're never ever playing
29:54Ever
29:57Coming up the boys from house three are getting creative with some graphic. Oh artwork
30:02Shelly the bar crusher is getting her first tattoo with a big surprise reveal in store for my mate Shelly. This is
30:10What do you reckon?
30:12I
30:24Welcome back to a bustling block Friday with kitchen installs in full swing
30:29There are stone benches going down plaster going up plenty of kitchen cabinetry going in and over at house
30:36One the girls are getting a lesson in filtered water and their complete home filtration system
30:43Okay, so what we've got here is a filter only after one month
30:46So usually the filters last somewhere between 6 to 12 months really depends on the water volume coming into the home
30:51Yeah, and the water quality that's how it started off and then you can imagine what it looks like after 12 months
30:56Yeah
30:57It's stopping all that gunk getting into your home and fixtures and fittings and tapware and all through your water using appliances
31:04So this softens the water it does a great job of protecting people's largest investment, which is obviously their family home
31:10Speaking of large investments next door in house to Courtney and grant are investing heavily in their kitchen this week
31:17This week. We really want to win win out, right?
31:21Want to smash it and it's kitchen way. Yeah, great. This would be the most important win
31:25Yeah, house two's kitchen takes pride of place in the open living area with a laundry behind
31:31featuring a Patagonian inspired stone bench matching stone splash back a
31:36Five-in-one oven state-of-the-art zip tap. That's worth wait for it
31:42$8,000 as well as a massive 150 bottle wine fridge. That's worth and this is going to buy
31:50$15,000 I've also created extra space for a butler's kitchen with an extra sink
31:54Oh
32:12It's like a subtle feature she's that's gonna go so well with your curve television
32:17Congratulations
32:19What a win on the chocolate wheel. Yeah
32:22I thought we're gonna get chocolate, but this is so much so much better
32:27Is this your sink or is this your cooktop? Yeah sink. Oh, okay
32:31So that this belongs over here then over this quite magical. This is magical
32:35What do you want to do to explain even somebody like Courtney could cook and get it right on this one
32:41So there's a there's the only cooktop in the world that has Bluetooth cooking
32:44Which needs Bluetooth specific Bluetooth pans
32:47Yeah, so basically the pan talks to the cooktop and tells you if it's getting too hot and something's getting burnt. It'll turn it down
32:56And then we've got other appliances as well ask oh we'll pull this off for now rip that off
33:00Yeah, we were lucky enough to get their coffee machine. Yes to start which I think is the most important two ovens
33:07Steamer a heating drawer. Hey, the drawers steaming drawer. We've got a beautiful wine fridge, which is behind it
33:13This is a
33:15$15,000 wine fridge Wow whoever buys this kitchen or buys this house is really well set up for some pretty pretty cool dinner parties
33:24You know what? You're building beautiful rooms. Thank you. Every time I walk in here on a Sunday, okay
33:29Wow, this is a winning room. Well, that means a lot right and the curve you got the curve. I love it
33:33Come on show. Let's go
33:36Thanks, that feels really good. Yeah, it's got he obviously knows what he's talking about
33:39They both do they both have amazing style as well and so much experience
33:44You're hearing it from them each week on a Friday, especially because sometimes just like are we doing the right thing that we don't know
33:50So here from them is really nice. Yeah
33:54Another team who has reason to believe this week Ricky and Hayden down the back in house three
33:59This is starting to look pretty sick. Hey, yeah
34:03After you know nearly nearly building a winning room last week with the main
34:08This is our way, especially with dunk on board. I reckon we've got a good chance. This is looking like a winning picture, isn't it?
34:15Absolutely. We love dunk on and having him on the team to get him to say yes to put the balls that hat on
34:21Wow, the cap looks good done
34:24Sorry, the cap the cap
34:25Well as I said to the boys if they're sitting with me working
34:29I'll put it on as part of the team if they're not here
34:33My normal one goes on you don't want to be seen on your own with a hat like this
34:37But when there's two guys that look as good as them, I think I pull it off a little better
34:42If it was sunny, or I'd put the glasses on too
34:46But I'm looking forward to our fishing trip where I can wear the glasses. Oh, yeah
34:50Oh, yeah, that's coming in the bar crusher out. Now if you're wondering what a bar crusher is, that's a bar crush
34:56That's Australian engineering, mate
34:58That's a fish's worst nightmare
35:00Which rigging Hayden took home with a challenge win a couple of weeks back a boat needs a name
35:06Have you thought about that guys? Oh, we knew a name before we even got on the charter. Let's call that Shelly
35:14I'll let her know I looked at Shelly and I said shell I'm naming this rig Shelly
35:21That's a nice story
35:23And as a man of his word wasn't long until this happened
35:28Shelly the bar crusher is getting her first tattoo
35:31Rick's been working with day mode from grafico to get some some decals made up with the word Shelly
35:36written down the side of it and there might be a feature piece of
35:40Shelly's head we wrap a lot of cars vehicles boats
35:45No one's ever asked for Shelly on it
35:49Another block first of the boys
35:52Oh
35:54Yes
35:56Nice work dudes. Oh, yeah awesome. And now we know that Shelly would have also made a great-looking mermaid
36:03Yes
36:05Which brings us to today's big surprise reveal?
36:12Yes, I've got to introduce Shelly to Shelly today it's pretty exciting be waiting for this moment for a couple weeks now
36:18I don't think Ricky could look any more chuffed than he does right now
36:23I've been told to come and check out the bar crusher. Apparently you've given her a name, correct?
36:29I think Rick might have named the boat before we'd won it
36:33Shelly yeah, I do think he was joking. No time. I wasn't joking
36:38We did name her after and then we thought that you know, just like any good boat with a name
36:44You got to get a special sticker for her
36:46We've got that made up and this is
36:54What do you reckon
36:57Your face will Bob above the water
37:01You'll be riding the waves with the bar crusher
37:08Some both sides
37:16Welcome
37:20We didn't smash any champagne on the side of her or anything too fancy it was just a nice meet-and-greet and
37:28She didn't seem upset
37:30You know, it's something she was surprised and she might have even been happy about it a little shocked little little happy
37:38Thank you very much
37:44Why do you get to make the Shelly fridge
38:00There's plenty to like about the block Phillip Island this season
38:03There's the impressive size of the block with impressive sized houses
38:08That comes with some very impressive architectural designs
38:12Nothing is quite as impressive as Christian and Mimi winning four out of the first five room reveals
38:19This week the newlyweds up the front and house five have yet another potential winning room
38:24Because their kitchen is the only one that sits in an elevated position upstairs and has a bird's-eye view of the pool at the back
38:33Christian and Mimi's view of the pool will be via a clever glass window splashback installation
38:38They're also adding a pop of color by a green freestanding smeg Portofino oven
38:44Extra natural light triple v-lock skylights and their butler's pantry features a double integrated fridge plenty of extra shelf space
38:54It's just accessories that we don't need
39:01Kinsmen strike again
39:04What's going in here, so I think we're the only one with a freestanding oven and cooktop so not built in like everyone else's yeah
39:11And we've got the matching
39:13Range hood right in the green in the green. Yes. I'm just scared the judges will say it looks like Shrek's kitchen the green
39:21It's intense it's a bit ogrey
39:24But it's a holiday house. Yeah, it's fun. It's different. And this is a window. Yes going outside. Yeah
39:30Yeah, I love that amazing. Hang on a minute. Just flashback. Yeah, it looks out to the backyard. Yeah
39:35Yeah, that's awesome. Awesome. And look at the light that's coming in here. Yeah
39:40It's amazing first v-locks as well our first. Oh, that's great
39:46Outdoors and outdoors and outdoors
39:48I love it this week is your week to lose because kinsmen do such a beautiful job on the fit-outs
39:54It comes down to your finishes your styling and of course the painting and if you if you don't finish your painting this way
40:01I will blow up deluxe. Yeah, and we're allowed to go cook on you about those things because you're one four out of five
40:07Oh
40:11No, if you're gunning for the title if you want to beat Ronnie and Georgia
40:15Yeah, I've got to deliver the best every single week only for your own sake so that you can walk off the block going
40:21Wow, we're the greatest couple that ever came through the show's doors, you know
40:25Imagine that
40:27That's a big title
40:30If you get seven wins, you're the greatest couple ever Wow
40:34Wow, there's a long way to go, but there's a long way to go on the road to
40:39Greatness, but there's a target on your back. Sure is. Yes. Good luck
40:46So we're currently sitting out for room wins if we win this week will be a five and then two more and we'll be
40:53the record winners
40:55It's pretty cool
40:57While Christian and Mimi bask in the glow of their four room wins down the back in house for parents
41:03Carly and Brad are basking in the glow of a video call to their four kids back home
41:08lady boy
41:10I'll be good
41:13Hello, Nanny
41:14It's like the Blair Witch Project talking to the kids half the time because you see like this much of their head
41:19And normally they're covering the mic. So you just watch them run around and then all of a sudden you're looking at ceiling
41:27Baby
41:34We're nearly halfway through
41:38It's all we've got to remember
41:41Something that would come in handy with the four kids to feed is the chocolate wheel prize that Carly spun up this morning
41:48So we got the $2,000 pantry stylist
41:52So my big question was does that actually mean someone's gonna come in and star my kitchen?
41:57Which the answer was yes
41:59Kylie
42:01My name's Katie, I'm going to be doing your pantry
42:05I didn't actually know that they existed
42:08But I was extremely happy and thought we've probably ended up with a really great prize. I need all the styling help
42:14I can get yeah amazing. What sort of feel were you thinking for your pantry?
42:19Organized. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. How do we feel sort of like labels and things?
42:25Do we like labels? Well, that's for you to decide we have four children like our pantries don't look stylish
42:32They a feel for a day and then they're empty. So I sort of just let her take on her creative
42:40vision
42:43Amazing she did some measurements worked out where we've got cupboards where we've got drawers what we'll need to fill it with and
42:50Then we were off to Audi
42:55Imagine
42:57Basically, we'll grab things that are really sort of bright green
43:00Avocados are always good and some green apples. Yes, some good little packs from Aldi
43:10I don't actually normally enjoy shopping Katie. This is not a good pastime for me. Well, this is shopping in fours
43:17Yeah, don't fill up you will shop less. Katie likes to shop in fours
43:22Which I thought seemed a lot but apparently it's because you've got to fill containers
43:29Yeah, or four of each of these, okay, yeah, yeah, let's just go forward for I think we're gonna need a bigger trolling
43:36Absolutely. We've only done two aisles
43:39So we had three trolleys worth it. That'll be that was very overwhelming
43:45I've never shopped like that before in my life
43:47Thank God. I'm not unpackaging it
43:50Right you're coming and actually do it. Yes. See there we go. Like thank God, honestly
43:54I had no idea what I was getting into when I won the $2,000 dollar stylist and look she's worth every penny great price
44:01So yeah, I think I was on to a winner there and I didn't even know it
44:09Oh my gosh, that is outstanding
44:12She likes it to see how our all-stars Dan and Danny rate the blockheads rooms when they award their weekly
44:18Champs and chomps who are your champs?
44:22exclusively at the block website
44:34When it comes to life on the block to say it's a change of pace is a bit of an understatement
44:39But for Maddie and Charlotte, we've only taken up residency in house one just over a week ago
44:45It's fair to say their block life so far has been one big surprise after another
44:50It's very cool to do a kitchen on the block except that we didn't design it
44:54So that was a bit crazy to watch it unfold it right in front of your eyes. Yeah getting surprised
44:59Oh floors. Oh my cabinets. Oh, there's handles. There's fluted glass. There's a white sink house
45:05One's kitchen is positioned just meters from their front door entry laundry hidden behind and dining and living directly in front
45:13Maddie and Charlotte's inherited kitchen design comes with a snag induction cooktop and appliances
45:19Featuring Taj Mahal stone bench top and splash back tumble brass tap and fixings to complement light coastal cabinetry
45:28We do love the color of it. So you're happy. Yes, I was like, it's not maybe exactly what I would have
45:34But it's like beautiful. Yes. Do you know what what bench top you have? Yeah, it's a Taj Mahal in that's really pretty
45:41Very pretty. Okay, apparently I haven't really
45:45In the on sweets very soft, it's lovely. Yeah
45:48Come from that
45:51Yeah
45:52Isn't it lovely seeing Shelly's smiling face? Oh, it's always lovely seeing Shelly's smiling face. I think I got ease to oh, of course
46:00Yeah, I saw a good dad
46:04Well, how are you actually feeling as far as your budget we've got some catching up to do but I'm hoping with
46:10No builders this week and nothing really to do in this room. That is a problem, isn't it?
46:14We'll have nothing to spend on was there no builders full stop. No, I'll build a walked out. Yes
46:21Well, look again, I say if you're not getting along and the communications not working you're better off cutting your losses
46:26Yeah, I think it's a silver lining
46:28So really it is a relief but you know
46:30Obviously, there's lots of planning to do for the rest of house, which is like at the on the forefront of our mind
46:35So we're trying to do this but trying to plan things because you know
46:37Everyone else has had five weeks to make these big decisions about moving your laundry and things like that
46:41So that's like in the back of our mind
46:43Okay, we've got to make these decisions right now so that we don't fall into an issue in weeks to come but we're getting there
46:50Yeah, alrighty. Now you are part of the block family now, right and you know that shell and I we
46:56Want you to succeed, you know, we want you to go well at auction. Yeah, we want to help you
47:01Yeah, well, do you have any what's your biggest tip then for styling? Oh
47:06Please
47:08I would say don't set it too much because it's not a TV set. It's a high. Oh, that's a good one
47:14Make it feel like home. Yeah. Okay, we'll try to that
47:18I don't know what that will look like yet, but get back to me on that
47:22on Sunday morning
47:24We
47:2624 hours in a day to make it what we
47:31Thought about every single boys. Did you have any idea? You want to protect that? I was gonna use the same floor
47:36Yeah, all right, and we'll just cut it out. No me to do that. No, yeah
47:40Thank you, brother. Yeah, this is nice head. This is lovely. Not really a butler's. Oh, hello boys
47:45And it's open all through here. G'day fellas. I have to say
47:50Damn you both for not finishing your master. It is beautiful
47:54Yeah, it's doing first thing. Shelly said was what a shame. You guys didn't finish your main another unfinished room
48:05And
48:06We know how close we were to potentially delivering a winning one this week Ricky and Hayden is sticking to their modern minimalist vibe
48:14Going with coastal oak cabinetry with fluted glass
48:17featuring a giant island bench with painted Porter timber paneling up front and
48:22Placing their Neff cooktop and sink behind on the rear bench and they've added an extra area for cleanup with a mini butler's
48:29kitchen out the back
48:31This looks amazing. Yeah
48:34Yeah, it feels very inviting doesn't it? You're lots of space either side. That's lovely plenty of room for the breakfast bar
48:40Yeah seats galore holiday resorts about entertainment
48:43So that's why we didn't want to sink on our island bench if you wanted to you could easily set up your beer pong
48:49either end
48:51In the way, there's no crap. There's no bars. There's nothing. It's just a straight beer pong run perfect. Holla what holiday resort here
48:59Don't play beer pong. It's a good time. Never played it. What happens?
49:03You've got to protect your cup at all costs unless you want to get hammered
49:07One time I was protecting my cup hit the ball over the fence when she on the fence
49:10Pulled my calf second grade calf strain cost me like four or five weeks in the sidelines
