Short filmTranscript
00:00:0093 days ago, five teams arrived on Phillip Island to embark on The Block's 20th project
00:00:12to build five beach houses within a luxury holiday community.
00:00:15Welcome to The Block.
00:00:17But with only three of the original teams remaining, here we are at the final week,
00:00:23with everyone working together to build what will be the most incredible clubhouse Australia
00:00:29has ever seen.
00:00:30Woo!
00:00:31Look at this!
00:00:3220 seasons of The Block and it just happens to be the best we've ever seen.
00:00:39And for the first time ever, one team will win $50,000 off their reserve on auction day,
00:00:47with a little help from some extra sparkly all-stars.
00:00:54Helping Christian and Mimi cross the finish line with their secret cinema behind a kitchen
00:00:59pantry door are the winners of The Block 2013, who now run a successful South Australian
00:01:05interior design firm, Elisa and Lysandra.
00:01:08This is $50,000.
00:01:10This can make or break.
00:01:11Joining sisters Maddie and Charlotte to complete the barbeque, dining area and kids' garden
00:01:17are West Coast all-stars and the most competitive team The Block has ever seen, Ronnie and Georgia.
00:01:25Clubs are on?
00:01:27Yeah.
00:01:28No, we're not here to just have fun.
00:01:29We're here to actually win this week.
00:01:31Sydney stars Steph and Gian are helping Courtney and Grant complete the day spa.
00:01:35They're the rich all-stars who won $1.75 million this time last year, along with making Japandi
00:01:44happen in the world of architecture and design.
00:01:48We want to put the Steph and Gian twist on it.
00:01:50We're not the contestants.
00:01:51No, I know we're not.
00:01:52No, no, no.
00:01:53But we want Grant and Court to win.
00:01:56Yeah, I know.
00:01:58They've been winning.
00:01:59Yes, I know.
00:02:00Of course.
00:02:01I'm not saying...
00:02:02I know what they're doing.
00:02:03Yeah, no, of course they do.
00:02:04Kylie and Brad walked out during judging on Sunday.
00:02:06I don't want to be here.
00:02:08So we recruited a couple of other Queenslanders to take their place.
00:02:13Jimmy and Tam won The Block in 2020, along with their reputation for being the hardest
00:02:18workers to ever compete.
00:02:21And they're channeling that into the clubhouse games room.
00:02:24Let's do it.
00:02:25All right.
00:02:26Go team.
00:02:27Woo-hoo!
00:02:28And that leaves us with Rikki and Hayden's all-star helpers, sisters Eliza and Liberty
00:02:33from last year, who are just really, really funny.
00:02:38They're sort of helping the boys do the alfresco area.
00:02:41We're just here to chill, as per usual.
00:02:46The girls' vibe and energy is all they need to bring.
00:02:50But it won't be smooth sailing across the finish line.
00:02:53We've run out of tiles.
00:02:55Call the supplier.
00:02:56They're not in the state.
00:02:57It's taken 13 weeks, and we've actually hit a complete disaster.
00:03:01So the vanity's now broken.
00:03:03A tradesman dropped a piece of timber onto our bench.
00:03:06There's the 50 grand going for them.
00:03:09And Jessie and Paige get some closure of their own, as they get to see the house they left
00:03:14behind.
00:03:15Look at this.
00:03:16I love the handles.
00:03:17I need to, like, step that.
00:03:18Yeah.
00:03:19Wow.
00:03:20And catch up with old friends.
00:03:21Oh, my God!
00:03:33It's Saturday morning and the final day on the block.
00:03:37And everyone's up early for one final push to the end.
00:03:42In the kitchen and cinema, Christian and Mimi are working with feisty twin all-stars
00:03:47Elisa and Lysandra.
00:03:49All right, let's get painting.
00:03:52So we can start.
00:03:53I reckon we do...
00:03:54So really, all we need to do is cut in that wall and cut in that wall.
00:03:57Yeah.
00:03:58Mimi is pretty good at cutting in.
00:04:00Yeah.
00:04:01But she's...
00:04:02Where's she?
00:04:04What time did you get up today?
00:04:06I got up at 9pm.
00:04:10I got up at 9am.
00:04:12How did your houseguests react to that?
00:04:15Our houseguests encouraged it.
00:04:17They encouraged 8.30.
00:04:21And another one.
00:04:25I push myself mentally.
00:04:28But I also found passion in creating relationships and making friends.
00:04:39Oh, my God, the wall lights!
00:04:41Oh, my God, this is going to be the best day of my life.
00:04:43Yeah.
00:04:45Physical work, I definitely have not pushed myself.
00:04:48This week has been probably the biggest week for me.
00:04:53Who went to cut in?
00:04:55Did you not cut in, Christian?
00:04:57Yeah.
00:04:58I'd rather you not.
00:04:59We've worked out everything.
00:05:00It wouldn't make sense.
00:05:03Why?
00:05:04It works.
00:05:05In the Clubhouse Day Spa,
00:05:07Courtney and Grant are paired with beige-loving all-star,
00:05:10Steph and Gianna.
00:05:12So that's going to end here.
00:05:15Or you want to line it up with this?
00:05:17Working with Steph and Gianna felt really good.
00:05:19I feel like we all have similar tastes and values and work ethic.
00:05:23We're going to go in, yeah?
00:05:25Let's go.
00:05:26It's a massive space.
00:05:28Huge.
00:05:29And overall, it ties into what we've done in the house.
00:05:32Do you see Kazza's artwork?
00:05:34Yes.
00:05:35I've told her to change the colour of the little thing
00:05:37to be the same as our...
00:05:39The little thing.
00:05:40...travertine.
00:05:41Yeah, because it was too pink.
00:05:42Oh, yeah, yeah, too pink.
00:05:43Yeah.
00:05:44It wasn't beige enough.
00:05:45Too pink.
00:05:46Not beige enough for Stephanie.
00:05:47She's my Greek twin.
00:05:48Yeah, I feel it.
00:05:49I feel it.
00:05:50I feel like I would like your eyes, though.
00:05:52How pretty are your eyes?
00:05:53I'd like a face.
00:05:54I think you'd look really good in a face.
00:05:56I think you'd look really good in a face.
00:05:58I think you'd look really good in a face.
00:06:00I'd like a face.
00:06:01I think it'd work out really well.
00:06:03I've really enjoyed hanging out with Steph.
00:06:05You know when, like, you're with people
00:06:06that just really pump you up and motivate you?
00:06:08That's the couple that does that for us, for sure.
00:06:14Watch the vases!
00:06:16Oh, my God.
00:06:17The voodoo in here.
00:06:18Back to work.
00:06:19Back to work, everyone.
00:06:20Go back.
00:06:24In the barbecue, dining rotunda and kids' garden,
00:06:28Maddie and Charlotte working with competitive all-stars
00:06:31Ronnie and Georgia.
00:06:32We were inspired by the Hollywood stars
00:06:36to do our own Blockywood stars.
00:06:38I'm not sure it would be the thing
00:06:40that wins us $50,000 if I were to deserve that.
00:06:42But this would be the game changer.
00:06:46Rondog and Georgia.
00:06:47Look at that.
00:06:48Shayna, Darren and Marty.
00:06:50Scotty and Shelley have to be, you know, up there.
00:06:53I feel like it's a cool memento to leave our little Mark.
00:06:56Like, it's not in a personal house.
00:06:58It's in a communal area.
00:06:59So I feel like it's not tacky.
00:07:01Bonnie and Grant, they can go close to the front.
00:07:03No, we'll put them over here.
00:07:05Ronnie does like to stir the pot.
00:07:07I believe these guys should probably be closer to the front
00:07:11and you guys closer to the back.
00:07:13It has to tell a story.
00:07:14Yeah.
00:07:15It's 20 years, right?
00:07:16No, I think Charlotte should be in front of Georgia.
00:07:18How does that work?
00:07:19Half star in front of all-stars, it doesn't work.
00:07:21Ronnie is great to work with.
00:07:23It's always nice to have somebody else on site
00:07:25to get the job done faster.
00:07:27No, but I think we need the big ones need to spread out.
00:07:30Guys, too many cooks in the kitchen.
00:07:37In the games room, hard-working all-stars Jimmy and Tam
00:07:40are tackling the space solo.
00:07:43Just us.
00:07:45Just little T-Wiz and J-Dub delivering this space.
00:07:50These chairs are a mushroom colour.
00:07:53It's what they're called, mushroom.
00:07:56With the design of this space,
00:07:58I wanted it to be speakeasy vibes
00:08:03but have a really beautiful colour palette
00:08:07that was just warm and inviting
00:08:09that you didn't want to leave.
00:08:13Rikki, can I get a lift?
00:08:16The SimWorks simulator, V8 supercar
00:08:18simulator arrived, which was from Kylie and Brad's design.
00:08:22All right, I'll help.
00:08:25Do I get first?
00:08:26No, way you get first.
00:08:28Second, dude.
00:08:29Yeah, you're going to have second.
00:08:31That was like our game changer, I guess you could say.
00:08:34Yes, for sure.
00:08:35That was a pivotal piece of the gaming room
00:08:37that we knew we needed to have.
00:08:44I got it completely custom
00:08:46to fit our design of our room.
00:08:48When I saw the black and gold,
00:08:51ding, ding, ding, ding, ding,
00:08:53I was just like instantly in love
00:08:55and knew that it would look perfect in our space.
00:08:58Mate, one of the last pieces of the puzzle going in.
00:09:00This is the winning piece of the puzzle.
00:09:02The winning piece of the puzzle.
00:09:03There's some money there.
00:09:04There is, absolutely.
00:09:06But it's what it costs to win, Dan.
00:09:09In the Alfresco area,
00:09:11Rikki and Hayden have all-star sisters,
00:09:13Elijah and Liberty,
00:09:14who put their hands up to do the cost.
00:09:17Do you want an ice for later?
00:09:18I'm getting an ice for later.
00:09:23Rikki's just realised
00:09:24they are missing the final pallet of tiles
00:09:26needed to complete the expansive Alfresco area.
00:09:31G'day, how you going?
00:09:32My name's Rikki.
00:09:33I'm a contestant on this year's block.
00:09:35Just looking for a hero on a tile shortage.
00:09:38Unfortunately, the tile,
00:09:39the paper that we're using,
00:09:40it's a bit of a mess.
00:09:41It's a bit of a mess.
00:09:42It's a bit of a mess.
00:09:43It's a bit of a mess.
00:09:44It's a bit of a mess.
00:09:45It's a bit of a mess.
00:09:46The tile,
00:09:47the paper that we've selected
00:09:48is a very high-end natural stone
00:09:49and it's not in the state.
00:09:51Mate!
00:09:52Hey!
00:09:53It's taken 13 weeks
00:09:55and we've actually hit
00:09:56a complete f***ing disaster.
00:09:57Beaumont's DC's closed.
00:09:59The warehouse is closed.
00:10:00Everything's done.
00:10:01Like, I don't...
00:10:02I can't...
00:10:03Maybe it's with this right tile.
00:10:05And, like, just...
00:10:06Where it's supposed to be.
00:10:07Just chalk it.
00:10:08Yeah.
00:10:10Surely there's something somewhere.
00:10:11There's nothing here.
00:10:12Have we checked the whole site?
00:10:13I've got six more up there.
00:10:14We're 30 tiles short
00:10:15so it looks like
00:10:16we missed out on a pallet.
00:10:18Apparently,
00:10:19there's none left in the state
00:10:20and it looks like
00:10:21we won't finish.
00:10:23This is a disaster.
00:10:28The vanity's now broken.
00:10:29The vanity's broken?
00:10:30Not the basin,
00:10:31the actual vanity tile top.
00:10:32So...
00:10:34What happened?
00:10:35What happened?
00:10:36Don't even want to know.
00:10:37Don't have a look.
00:10:38I know.
00:10:39A tradesman
00:10:40dropped a piece of timber
00:10:41onto our bench.
00:10:42Can we fix it?
00:10:43Well,
00:10:44the problem is
00:10:45to remove this,
00:10:46there's all joined together.
00:10:47Yeah.
00:10:48And attached
00:10:49to all the mortars
00:10:50on all three sides.
00:10:51Yeah.
00:10:52You know,
00:10:53when you take that back
00:10:54at all,
00:10:55it's going to be smashed.
00:10:56Grant's 50 grand on the line.
00:10:57Whether you've got
00:10:58one cracked tile
00:10:59or three cracked tiles,
00:11:00you still got cracked tiles
00:11:01and you're still
00:11:02going to get judged harshly,
00:11:03so...
00:11:04Can't deliver the bathroom
00:11:05like that.
00:11:06We've got to try and hide it.
00:11:07One.
00:11:18It wouldn't be
00:11:19the last day on the block
00:11:20without a few curveballs.
00:11:21The first one
00:11:22being Ricky and Hayden
00:11:23finding that
00:11:24they are 30 tiles
00:11:25short
00:11:26of completing
00:11:27the Alfresco area.
00:11:29We've run out of tiles.
00:11:31All the supplier,
00:11:32they're not in the state
00:11:33and all the warehouses
00:11:34are closed.
00:11:35It's just another
00:11:36problem on the block.
00:11:38Earlier this week,
00:11:39Nine and Six
00:11:40started clearing
00:11:41excess materials
00:11:42off site
00:11:43to prepare
00:11:44for the end of the block.
00:11:45Right around the same time
00:11:46the boys' tiles
00:11:47went missing.
00:11:49Hey.
00:11:53I've just been
00:11:54looking on my security cameras.
00:11:55Oh, no.
00:11:56I reckon
00:11:57that's a pallet
00:11:58of those tiles.
00:11:59Where's your factory?
00:12:00In Springbath,
00:12:01Melbourne.
00:12:02I'm just about
00:12:03to call Gaz
00:12:04to see
00:12:05what he's doing
00:12:06to see whether
00:12:07he'll chuck
00:12:08them into you.
00:12:10How many pieces
00:12:11in a pallet?
00:12:13I think there's 66.
00:12:14Okay, so there'll be heaps.
00:12:15Yeah.
00:12:16All right.
00:12:18That looks
00:12:19real grim
00:12:20but it looks like
00:12:21there might be a pallet
00:12:22sitting in Springbath
00:12:23at Nine and Six's
00:12:24factory.
00:12:26Gary just called.
00:12:27He's on his way
00:12:28to the factory
00:12:29to pick up the pallets.
00:12:30He's on his way
00:12:31to the factory
00:12:32to pick up the F-truck,
00:12:33pick up the tiles
00:12:34and bring them here.
00:12:35Bloody legend, mate.
00:12:36Appreciate it.
00:12:37Thanks, Ado.
00:12:42Which brings us
00:12:43to last minute
00:12:44curveball number two.
00:12:45Courtney and Grant
00:12:46smash day spa vanity.
00:12:48A piece of timber
00:12:49accidentally fell
00:12:50while somebody
00:12:51was up on the ladder.
00:12:52It split the top
00:12:53of the vanity.
00:12:54But we had to fix it.
00:12:56What's achievable?
00:12:57We remove it
00:12:58and it's got a chance
00:12:59of breaking
00:13:00all four of them.
00:13:01Yeah.
00:13:02And we do more damage.
00:13:03Run the risk.
00:13:04We have to run the risk?
00:13:05Run the risk.
00:13:06Fifty grand's on the line
00:13:07for him.
00:13:08Yeah.
00:13:09For these guys, you know.
00:13:10So we'll try
00:13:11and repair it.
00:13:12Roll the dice, baby.
00:13:13I'll be honest,
00:13:14this is very risky.
00:13:15Just do it.
00:13:16It wasn't even a question.
00:13:17That vanity top
00:13:18was getting changed
00:13:19and if we
00:13:20had of broken
00:13:21the other tiles around it,
00:13:22well then that was
00:13:23the risk we run.
00:13:24All chopped out.
00:13:25Keep working.
00:13:26That silicone's still fresh.
00:13:27I can't believe
00:13:28we broke a tile today.
00:13:29But I also can't believe
00:13:30that we fixed it
00:13:31and it looks
00:13:32better than ever.
00:13:33With another disaster
00:13:34narrowly averted,
00:13:35Foreman Dan's work here
00:13:36on Phillip Island
00:13:37is almost done.
00:13:38After he checks

00:14:54We got to meet them
00:14:55for the first time
00:14:56which was lovely.
00:14:57Show them around,
00:14:58show them our house.
00:14:59So, this
00:15:00is the kitchen.
00:15:01Look at this.
00:15:02Oh my god.
00:15:03I love the handles.
00:15:04I know.
00:15:05They're
00:15:06beautiful, aren't they?
00:15:07We got to take
00:15:08them to the other
00:15:09contestants for
00:15:10them to see them
00:15:11which was kind of
00:15:12cute.
00:15:13Damen,
00:15:14no,
00:15:15Naela.
00:15:16No,
00:15:17you're back.
00:15:18You alright?
00:15:19Yeah, I'm good.
00:15:20How are you?
00:15:21This place
00:15:22It must have been really hard for him to see what sort of could have been, but in the same
00:15:27sense it was so happy to see him smile and see him laughing and seeing him still together.
00:15:33It's so good to have Jessie and Paige back on site. I think since they left they've been
00:15:44missed a lot. We don't really know exactly what Paige thought of all the other houses.
00:15:57We know she loves Courtney and Grant and thought that was beautiful. She didn't love Kylie
00:16:02and Brad's house. I guess it's just very opposite to her aesthetic. But it's also quite polarising.
00:16:14Yeah.
00:16:15Hey, by my calculations Ado, there'll be some tiles rocking up about. Here's Gaz now. I
00:16:25reckon you owe Gaz now. Oh, I think I owe Gaz. On his day off. We're very appreciative.
00:16:30We've got the papers. It looks like we're going to do it.
00:16:37It's a small world after all. It's a small world after all. It's a small world after
00:16:45all.
00:16:46It is looking unreal. We feel like we've accomplished the impossible.
00:16:52Right, boys, it's turtle time.
00:16:54Oh, no.
00:16:55It's a tortoise.
00:16:57The Liars of Liberty have only chosen one thing for this space and it's the turtle.
00:17:03Uh, tortoise.
00:17:05We do have a little lettuce to feed him.
00:17:09I'm not going to lie, it definitely doesn't have a place here.
00:17:15Dining table?
00:17:16No, no dining table. Look, I'm not a stylist, not an interior decorator, but I'm a team
00:17:25operator and they're our new best friends.
00:17:28It's heavier than you imagine, isn't it?
00:17:31And if they want the turtle in, they can have the turtle in.
00:17:35Tortoise.
00:17:36Do you want him facing the wall?
00:17:37Facing the wall, like climbing up. Like that. I think that's the one.
00:17:43That's the spot?
00:17:44Giving birth.
00:17:45I think that's really good.
00:17:46That's it?
00:17:47Jeez, that does look good.
00:17:49That is impressive. I'm not going to lie.
00:17:52And then we can somehow, like, hand this over.
00:17:55Hand the lettuce, yeah.
00:17:57And honestly, if that's going to risk our 50k, like for me, friendship's worth more
00:18:02than money. If that's what they want, they can have it.
00:18:04Were you really going to allow this to stay here?
00:18:07I wasn't thrilled about it, was I?
00:18:09Oh my god, that is so cute that you would let us have it.
00:18:12Would you truly have let us keep it there?
00:18:13Yeah, it was about to stay.
00:18:15So you actually don't want it?
00:18:16We were quite insulted.
00:18:17We were quite happy to end this joke day one.
00:18:19We were quite insulted by the fact that you thought that we would want something so painless.
00:18:25It's a joke.
00:18:26You absolutely would have jeopardised your space.
00:18:29I would have given up 50k.
00:18:30Have a look at us. Do we look like someone who hasn't jeopardised their space before?
00:18:32You would have given up 50 grand just to please us. That's so lovely.
00:18:35100%.
00:18:36That was a three day long joke.
00:18:39Okay.
00:18:41Alright, let's get him out. Let him sleep.
00:18:43Let's get Turtle Drab out of here.
00:18:45Oh, it's a tortoise, people.
00:18:47We know where you live.
00:18:48Well, I do anyway. He took me there. Big mistake.
00:18:54We've got the games room getting pretty much done.
00:18:58You might have to move that stuff.
00:19:00Yeah, that's alright. I can sort it out. You go do you.
00:19:03Oh, it's beautiful.
00:19:07Jimmy and Tam smashed that out.
00:19:09They were done.
00:19:10They're beasts. Like, they've just been cruising.
00:19:15God knows what's going on in that spa.
00:19:17I saw saunas getting carried through.
00:19:22And then you've got this big cinema.
00:19:24Mimi was cooking lamb cutlets with some, like, magical oven situation that's in there.
00:19:29Hit the long wash and it's going to wash itself.
00:19:32Yeah, taste test if I get a chance.
00:19:34Yeah, a bit of that mint yoghurt. Perfection.
00:19:37Oh, my God.
00:19:41Oh, my goodness.
00:19:44Tell me this isn't a wedding room.
00:19:46Tell me this is not a ten. You tell me this is not a ten out of ten.
00:19:49Ten out of ten!
00:19:52This is going to just be the most magical clubhouse.
00:19:56The Disney Plus clubhouse. It's going to be the most magical thing.
00:20:01And the jewel in the crown, Dave Franklin's masterpiece of a communal pool is complete.
00:20:12I got a call from Dave Franklin.
00:20:14I walked over and the Curcio brothers are standing there.
00:20:17Age and Anthony, and they said...
00:20:18Bloc tradition, mate.
00:20:19Bloc tradition.
00:20:20So, now we've finished the pool. We need someone to test it out.
00:20:23Where do you reckon you and Ricky need to jump in the pool?
00:20:26Scientists go jump in the pool. You set the scene for the Bloc heads out there, mate.
00:20:30Yeah, yeah.
00:20:31You're on Phillip Island. Soon as the sun goes down...
00:20:34We're talking, like...
00:20:35Seven degrees.
00:20:36It's arctic.
00:20:37Like, max.
00:20:38It is arctic conditions.
00:20:39Let's go. Yes! What an achievement!
00:20:42What's up, boys?
00:20:47Alright!
00:20:48Well done.
00:20:52What was it like in there?
00:20:54It was bloody cold.
00:20:56With the pool officially christened, there's just one thing left to do.
00:21:00Finish the entire Bloc by 9am tomorrow.
00:21:04It's 6.44. We won't stop till 9am tomorrow.
00:21:06It's our last all-nighter, and we've got Steph and John helping us, so...
00:21:10Exactly. We wouldn't be able to do it without them.
00:21:16I can't believe this was volunteer work.
00:21:18Jolie's done well.
00:21:21You're doing so great!
00:21:26Cheers, biggies.
00:21:27Cheers.
00:21:28Well done.
00:21:29Yeah, how good's this?
00:21:30Well done. Listen to all that work going on out there.
00:21:34I didn't think I'd have pay on my hands again, but here we are,
00:21:37and I didn't think we'd be doing another all-nighter again.
00:21:47This is your last whole hour left of this experience.
00:21:51Hour, hour.
00:21:56Does it get any cushions or anything, or is this it?
00:21:58Wow, look at the fire. It's beautiful.
00:22:01Let me just check my clock.
00:22:04Oh, wow.
00:22:05Cold's down!
00:22:12This has been such a great time.
00:22:14Like, I really didn't think I would have enjoyed it this much.
00:22:16Yeah, you did it!
00:22:17You did it!
00:22:18You did it!
00:22:19You did it!
00:22:20You did it!
00:22:21You did it!
00:22:22You did it!
00:22:23You did it!
00:22:24You did it!
00:22:25You did it!
00:22:26You did it!
00:22:27You did it!
00:22:28You did it!
00:22:29You did it!
00:22:30It's a bit of a surreal moment that we've completed the block.
00:22:34You finished the block, man.
00:22:36It's just crazy to think that we've done all of that.
00:22:43It's really sad, but also very fulfilling to know that we've finished the block
00:22:48on such a high, to be honest.
00:22:52That's very different to what you said in week six.
00:22:55Give me the phone!
00:22:57We had a moment on Tools Down.
00:22:59I know we're all looking around at each other going,
00:23:01this is it.
00:23:02So I wish everyone the best.
00:23:04Well done, brother.
00:23:09Don't block my shot.
00:23:11Keep it going.
00:23:25Hi, Scotty.
00:23:27G'day, Scotty.
00:23:28Hello.
00:23:29Oh, Frankie!
00:23:30G'day, Frankie.
00:23:33Frankie, come in.
00:23:34Good on ya.
00:23:37Well, good evening, everybody.
00:23:39Good evening.
00:23:40Well, what a way to finish the block.
00:23:43The clubhouse is incredible.
00:23:46It is.
00:23:47Certainly a value add for anybody who buys one of your houses.
00:23:50There's just nothing like it.
00:23:52And the judges all agreed as well.
00:23:54And what about the swimming pool and the tennis court area
00:23:57that Dave Franklin and his team did?
00:23:59Give him a round of applause.
00:24:00That was fantastic.
00:24:02And I want to say a big thank you to our all-stars
00:24:06that came and played with us.
00:24:08Thank you very much, Scotty.
00:24:10Fantastic.
00:24:11And a big shout-out to Jimmy and Tam,
00:24:13who batted on on their own after the sudden departure
00:24:17of Brad and Kylie last Sunday.
00:24:20Now, we all know what we're fighting for.
00:24:23The Disney Plus Clubhouse was your chance
00:24:26to win the final prize of the series.
00:24:28$50,000 off your reserve.
00:24:32What?
00:24:33Got to put you in the box seat
00:24:35to win the $100,000 prize on auction day, hasn't it?
00:24:39Now, we all know that Jimmy and Tam and the Games Room
00:24:42is not eligible for the prize today,
00:24:45but we did send the judges through.
00:24:47You're going to get some scores as well for your joint.
00:24:49But you can't win.
00:24:50Only houses one, two, three, and five are eligible.
00:24:54So, you're ready for your final feedback ever.
00:24:59Your final feedback ever.
00:25:01LAUGHTER
00:25:02It's never happening again to you lot.
00:25:05OK, before we get to your spaces,
00:25:07our judges wanted to take in the common areas
00:25:11that were delivered this weekend by our friend Dave Franklin.
00:25:14MUSIC
00:25:25Woo!
00:25:26Wow.
00:25:27Look at this!
00:25:28A holiday park to Wimbledon.
00:25:30Wow!
00:25:32How good is this?
00:25:34Beautiful doors on the way in as well.
00:25:36Christian Cole doors, custom made.
00:25:39Look at that.
00:25:40Wow.
00:25:41Beautiful.
00:25:42There is nothing common about these common areas.
00:25:45Not at all.
00:25:46I mean, the brief was Wimbledon, hence the yard bar,
00:25:48the seating arrangements.
00:25:49It's not your everyday tennis court.
00:25:51You know what I love also is that the net is on wheels
00:25:55so you can move it,
00:25:56so you could actually marquee this and do events.
00:25:59Imagine!
00:26:00Uh-huh.
00:26:01And I never thought of that.
00:26:02You put a marquee over the wedding
00:26:04and then the reception is in the clubhouse.
00:26:06Yeah.
00:26:07The judges love the pool area.
00:26:09MUSIC
00:26:16Oh, look at the pool area.
00:26:18This is just stunning.
00:26:23Look at all the palms.
00:26:24We couldn't really take them all in last time we were here.
00:26:27That pool is a lagoon.
00:26:29Look at the elevated spa.
00:26:31It's massive.
00:26:32It fit 10 people in that spa.
00:26:34It's stunning.
00:26:35Like, this is award-winning.
00:26:36And look at the seating arrangements.
00:26:38So you can sit there, have lunch, watch the kids.
00:26:40Like, the amount of space is incredible.
00:26:43Yeah.
00:26:44All I'm seeing is labour and design and logistics excellence.
00:26:49The planning, such great planting.
00:26:51Lifestyle plus.
00:26:53You know what?
00:26:54I'm so glad Dave was judging with us the last two weeks
00:26:56cos I feel like our feedback really helped him.
00:26:58LAUGHTER
00:27:00He needed our help.
00:27:02He needed our help, absolutely.
00:27:03Yeah.
00:27:04Well done, Dave Franklin.
00:27:06APPLAUSE
00:27:10On their way to the clubhouse,
00:27:12they discovered a magic tortoise in the gazebo.
00:27:15LAUGHTER
00:27:16Got this big tortoise here.
00:27:18He looks crazy.
00:27:19Champagne daz.
00:27:20It's beautiful, though.
00:27:21I think that's just a little fun thing.
00:27:23Is it fibreglass?
00:27:24Yeah, must be.
00:27:25Yeah.
00:27:26That's so cool.
00:27:27Looks like bronze, but it's lightweight.
00:27:29Either that or I just got really, very strong.
00:27:32Elijah Liberty, you'll be pleased to know
00:27:34that Darren and Shayna really loved it.
00:27:36Oh, thank God.
00:27:38Is that a joke?
00:27:39Well done, us.
00:27:40Well done, us.
00:27:41Well done.
00:27:42See?
00:27:43OK.
00:27:44House one, Maddie and Charlotte,
00:27:46and Ronnie and Georgia, of course.
00:27:48APPLAUSE
00:27:52This week was a fun week.
00:27:53It just felt like the spirit was high.
00:27:56It was like the finale of the show.
00:27:58Yeah.
00:28:00Our section is the rotunda,
00:28:02so we've got the barbecue area
00:28:04and then the garden surrounding it.
00:28:06We noticed that the whole complex
00:28:08didn't have anything for the kids,
00:28:10so we were like,
00:28:11let's put in an in-ground trampoline
00:28:13and a sandpit.
00:28:14This is a game-changer.
00:28:15It's a 50 grand trampoline, is it?
00:28:17Yeah.
00:28:18Genius.
00:28:19Genius.
00:28:22Another day, another car journey.
00:28:25My first day shopping with Georgia
00:28:27My first day shopping with Georgia
00:28:29was lots of fun.
00:28:30Are we over the bridge yet?
00:28:32No.
00:28:33We're not even over the bridge yet.
00:28:36We went to Coco Republic.
00:28:40I chose the dining chairs.
00:28:44This is called Belize.
00:28:45Dining.
00:28:47We went great.
00:28:48Once again, just a little dream team.
00:28:50We are a dream team.
00:28:51Pink.
00:28:58We collectively came up with the idea
00:29:00of doing a Blockywood Walk of Fame.
00:29:04Scotty and Shelly,
00:29:05Maddie and Charlotte,
00:29:06Ronnie and Georgia,
00:29:07Keith and Dan,
00:29:09the Dodgers.
00:29:10And then just others.
00:29:12And then plebs.
00:29:13Others.
00:29:18Honestly, there's so much to do.
00:29:19I don't even know where to start.
00:29:21I just look at the site and I'm like,
00:29:22oh dear,
00:29:23we've got to landscape this whole area
00:29:25and it doesn't really look like
00:29:26as much has happened to you, hey?
00:29:30Oh, that's going to be great.
00:29:32In the private dining area,
00:29:34we got a custom bench seat
00:29:36and table made by Joel Elliott.
00:29:38And it looks amazing.
00:29:40Oh, we've done well.
00:29:44I think we do have a chance
00:29:46to win this week.
00:29:47I think our space out of everyone's
00:29:49has the biggest transformation.
00:29:51Which is why we chose it.
00:29:52We're in it to win it.
00:29:57I hope the judges see
00:29:59that we've been really intentional
00:30:00about creating something
00:30:02that's quite unique.
00:30:03Like, we've just really tried
00:30:04to utilize the space,
00:30:05have a kid's zone,
00:30:06have a private dining area,
00:30:08have like a communal dining area.
00:30:10It's a very practical space,
00:30:11but beautiful.
00:30:12We've got the walk of stars!
00:30:19We've got the walk of stars!
00:30:21We've got the walk of stars!
00:30:23We've got the walk of stars!
00:30:26How cool is this?
00:30:27Scotty and Shelley,
00:30:29Shana, Darren and Marty.
00:30:31Now let me guess who did it.
00:30:33Was it Maddie and Charlotte
00:30:35and Rodney and Georgia?
00:30:36Because they have the biggest stars.
00:30:40And I was filthy.
00:30:42Because Dan Riley got a single star on his own
00:30:44and I shared mine with Shelley.
00:30:47Who I love.
00:30:48But you were the first one.
00:30:49I love.
00:30:51But, you know,
00:30:52I did want my own star,
00:30:53but never mind.
00:30:55On to the barbecue area
00:30:57and the judges were immediately impressed.
00:31:01Let's talk about the nautical theme
00:31:03and the rope and the rope chairs
00:31:05and all this lovely timber battening.
00:31:07It's just a beautiful, balanced, neutral,
00:31:10very coastal appropriate
00:31:12holiday destination design.
00:31:15I love, I love it.
00:31:17Shana noted the extent of the amenity you've added.
00:31:20We've got a pizza oven,
00:31:22we've got a barbecue,
00:31:23we've got a sink.
00:31:24You can have round table discussions.
00:31:26We've got a fan, we've got a heater.
00:31:28All in the right positions.
00:31:30I can't see anything that I'd want to change.
00:31:32It's just so good.
00:31:37How lovely to have an all-weather
00:31:39indoor dining space.
00:31:44That table!
00:31:45This is like a 15, 16 seater.
00:31:49This is a custom table
00:31:50and it's delightful.
00:31:51Feel it.
00:31:52Look at the shape.
00:31:53It's unbelievable.
00:31:54Not only is this a custom table,
00:31:56can you please have a look at the quality
00:31:58of this custom banquette.
00:31:59The curve.
00:32:00Look at that curve.
00:32:02Darren was loving the dining space too.
00:32:04I love a banquette
00:32:06and I love a big table
00:32:07and I really love this layout.
00:32:10But.
00:32:14There's the but.
00:32:15If you're one of the two people
00:32:17sitting in the middle there.
00:32:18I love it, you're not leaving this party.
00:32:20You've got to crawl underneath the table
00:32:21to go to use the loo, right?
00:32:24Cut it out, Darren.
00:32:27The compliments kept on coming.
00:32:30The planning here is spectacular.
00:32:33The wallpaper is divine.
00:32:36I am loving those shell lights.
00:32:38How cool are they?
00:32:39It's so Phillip Island.
00:32:40And a fire!
00:32:41And a fire.
00:32:44The result is phenomenal
00:32:45and it takes a lot to work together
00:32:47and collaborate,
00:32:48especially with strong personalities
00:32:51and this could have actually been a car crash.
00:32:54And it's not.
00:32:56And then they discovered a third area.
00:32:58A child's play space.
00:33:00It delivers a lot of amenity too.
00:33:04There's lots of function and amenity
00:33:06into this space, isn't there?
00:33:07You have a games area,
00:33:08a sandpit with a trampoline.
00:33:11They reckon a lot of thought
00:33:12has gone into this.
00:33:14It's just incredible,
00:33:15the fact that you've got
00:33:16the little walking bluestone
00:33:19that goes from the dining area.
00:33:21You've got the leaf-shaped sandpit.
00:33:25The construction that we have seen
00:33:27just in this first area is incredible.
00:33:30Like all that corten steel,
00:33:31again, the curves.
00:33:32Look at all the slats that sit
00:33:34on top of the corten steel.
00:33:35I mean, that's one person's job
00:33:37for five days.
00:33:38The landscape design is beautiful.
00:33:40The planning choices are gorgeous.
00:33:42I mean, we haven't got Dave here today,
00:33:43but I mean, this here as a feature
00:33:45what have we got?
00:33:46It should be jacaranda, isn't it?
00:33:48Nice, beautiful jacarandas.
00:33:49They'll be purple as soon as you drive down.
00:33:51Crikey.
00:33:52That'll be massive.
00:33:53It's beautiful,
00:33:54and I think they should be so proud.
00:33:55And how incredible for Maddie and Charlotte.
00:33:57I just think that they've been able
00:33:59to come in, adapt, create House One
00:34:02and turn it into their own.
00:34:03They've hit it out of the ballpark.
00:34:05Yeah.
00:34:07Very, very strong feedback
00:34:09to start judging off today.
00:34:10That's it.
00:34:11Maddie, Charlotte, Ryan and Joyce.
00:34:15So emotional.
00:34:30House Two,
00:34:32Courtney and Grumpy.
00:34:39This week we really want to bring it home strong,
00:34:41take $50,000 off our reserve
00:34:43and sail off back to Sunny City.
00:34:47Steph and Gian were the reason why we applied for the job.
00:34:49Genuinely, yeah, genuinely was.
00:34:51We saw what they did.
00:34:52You know, we wanted to experience it for ourselves.
00:34:54This is us.
00:34:55We selected a day spa.
00:34:57It's a big space.
00:34:59It's a whole wet area.
00:35:00The stone by Cosentino, I think,
00:35:02is going to be the main feature.
00:35:03I mean, stone floor, stone walls.
00:35:06It's amazing.
00:35:10You got to hold that glass, Grant.
00:35:11I got it.
00:35:12Myself and Gian became professional sauna installers.
00:35:16Sauna days.
00:35:17Let's get it on in here.
00:35:18Five full-grown European men in there having fun.
00:35:21A lot of juices, a lot of heat.
00:35:25What's going on?
00:35:27You've re-plastered all these walls.
00:35:29That's what, another seven grand?
00:35:31Yeah.
00:35:32We were on the way to go shopping to buy our plants
00:35:36and Scotty calls us.
00:35:38Hello, Scotty.
00:35:39He said, girls, don't spend any more money today.
00:35:42All right, I'm not spending any more.
00:35:44Bye, Scotty.
00:35:45It's actually pretty reasonable, $49.
00:35:47Yeah, no, it's actually a really good price.
00:35:49There's no way I'm presenting this space without any plants.
00:35:52The first day, we were deer in headlights
00:35:55and on the last day, we are leaving with lifelong friends.
00:35:59An amazing sense of accomplishment.
00:36:01We finished every single room, every week.
00:36:04Feels good.
00:36:05It's like you're in my breath, it's like you're in my life.
00:36:12Took something on and never set it for a ride.
00:36:16I'd love the judges to pick up on the different aesthetics
00:36:20we have, like that Mediterranean style
00:36:22and also like a little bit of the Japan-y style from Steph.
00:36:25Overall, I think we've, we've nailed it.
00:36:31Monolithic.
00:36:36This has just taken my breath away.
00:36:38The block has a day spa.
00:36:40A buyer would not expect to see anything like this.
00:36:44Look at that.
00:36:45Oh, my gosh.
00:36:47A heated slab of Saviour Dekton.
00:36:50It's warm.
00:36:52Yes, it's warm.
00:36:53No.
00:36:54It's actually a heated slab.
00:36:57He's still lying there in his Speedos right now.
00:37:00We'll be there later.
00:37:01With his candle.
00:37:02His shirt fell off again.
00:37:04It's not a bad view.
00:37:10It's actually lovely and comfortable to sit in.
00:37:13I know it's a hard service.
00:37:14I'm going to try it.
00:37:15I have to.
00:37:16I don't know what I was expecting from these spaces.
00:37:19I mean, this was Scotty's bloody shed.
00:37:23And look at it now.
00:37:25It's lux.
00:37:28Who is in this space?
00:37:30We have got Stefan Gian and Courtney and Gar.
00:37:34Oh, wow.
00:37:35Talk about the dream team.
00:37:36I was just about to say the dream team.
00:37:39We have Japandi and Modder Terranian meeting together
00:37:44and working as a team.
00:37:47Two killer block styles coming together in perfect harmony.
00:37:52And this is what it produces.
00:37:54That's how you can feel it.
00:37:56Like, it looks incredible.
00:37:58But actually being in here, it's like I am calm standing here,
00:38:03believe it or not.
00:38:04The words that come to mind are chic as F.
00:38:12It's funny that we got stopped right at the door.
00:38:15There's so much in here, but this stopped us dead in our tracks.
00:38:19And this would have been risky in the planning.
00:38:21For them to say, look, as soon as you walk in,
00:38:23let's just have a heated slab, that's a risky move.
00:38:26But what it does is it actually hides what's on the other side.
00:38:35Ice bathing is so big at the moment because of the benefits that you get,
00:38:40which is why in a resort like this, this is so fitting.
00:38:43You could book this out as just a couple's day spa.
00:38:47You could book it as a family.
00:38:48You could have a girls' hens' night.
00:38:50You could have a retreat here in your very own resort.
00:38:53And it does feel like you could be anywhere in the world
00:38:56at any of the top day spas across the planet.
00:38:59This is up there with that quality.
00:39:03Marty said, if we find saunas behind those archers,
00:39:06I'm going to lose my mind.
00:39:12This is next level.
00:39:14Steam Saunas Australia, look at this.
00:39:16Two tier, hot rock sauna, and they're big saunas.
00:39:21You can easily have three people sitting in here.
00:39:26And beautiful.
00:39:27Beautiful.
00:39:28He didn't find one, he found two.
00:39:30I mean, you've got another sauna.
00:39:31So that's seven, eight people that are capable
00:39:35of actually using the Wellness Centre.
00:39:38This isn't just a gimmick.
00:39:39This is great planning, incredible design, amazing amenity,
00:39:43and bang for buck for the buyer.
00:39:46I have never seen anything like this before.
00:39:51Darren was a bit more subtle and had a small criticism.
00:39:56Okay.
00:39:57Our skirting, it's a little uneven, it needs to be caulked.
00:40:01And the plaster work could be a little bit better.
00:40:06And if you look around,
00:40:08almost everything in here is a tradesperson.
00:40:11In a space that's been planned for a long time
00:40:13and built by other people,
00:40:15and the one thing that you're responsible for,
00:40:17I would expect the paint would be perfect.
00:40:22Beyond the saunas, the judges found some very clever joinery.
00:40:27Oh, look, this big changing area.
00:40:30It's like you're in a high-end gym.
00:40:32Six private lockers.
00:40:34Wow.
00:40:35So you can hang your towels, your robes.
00:40:38And they thought of everything.
00:40:39Place to sit, put your shoes on,
00:40:41you've got baskets underneath, massive mirror.
00:40:45Again, super calming in here, and it's a change room area.
00:40:49The Decibels Live Well boys have gone right down.
00:40:52Yeah, how happy are you?
00:40:54Very.
00:40:56But it's calming.
00:40:57Also love the combination of walnut with oak.
00:41:00We have many different timbers in this space,
00:41:03but they all work because they've all been tied together.
00:41:05That's an expert eye.
00:41:06That's somebody that knows what they're doing.
00:41:08And I can say that as equally for Steph and Diane
00:41:10as I can for Courtney and Grumpy.
00:41:12I guarantee there's no Grumpy in here today.
00:41:14Oh, no.
00:41:16I'll tell you what, we've given you a hard time, haven't we?
00:41:20Grumpy this, Grumpy that.
00:41:22Well, it ends today.
00:41:23Does it?
00:41:24Yes.
00:41:27I think you should leave it.
00:41:28Take it off, Scotty.
00:41:30We're on here.
00:41:31Put it on your back.
00:41:40Grumpy's gone.
00:41:41Greg, welcome back.
00:41:43Good to be back.
00:41:45The judges then took in the bathroom area
00:41:47and absolutely loved the basin.
00:41:53Alrighty.
00:41:56Oh, my God, look at that basin.
00:41:59That's stunning.
00:42:01Shona says you literally couldn't find a better basin.
00:42:07It's a full experience to be able to have
00:42:09saunering for up to seven, eight people,
00:42:12the double ice baths, the private lockers.
00:42:15It's amazing.
00:42:16It's got the form, it's got the function,
00:42:18like everything, tick, tick, tick.
00:42:20Okay, that's it.
00:42:21Courtney and Greg, Steph and Diane.
00:42:29We were really, really happy with the feedback tonight.
00:42:32Honestly, we couldn't be happier.
00:42:43Okay.
00:42:44Health 3, Ricky and H and...
00:42:47Eliza and Liberty.
00:42:58I was a bit anxious going into the final week,
00:43:00knowing it was all coming to an end,
00:43:02but to complete the block the way we did,
00:43:05it was a good way to finish.
00:43:06Super proud, super proud to finish with me mate.
00:43:12It's a massive alfresco area.
00:43:14Spence has done an amazing job with the trusses
00:43:16and all the other stuff that's gone into
00:43:18getting that alfresco ready,
00:43:20so Eliza and I need to go to Beaumont to select the pavers.
00:43:26You've never been into Beaumont, ever?
00:43:28No.
00:43:29Why would I need to?
00:43:30Because Lib was the shopper.
00:43:32Is every tile an outdoor tile?
00:43:35Definitely not.
00:43:36Okay.
00:43:37Thinking warm ash?
00:43:38Yep.
00:43:39A travel team?
00:43:40I back that decision.
00:43:43Come to that on the mountain.
00:43:48Morning ladies.
00:43:49Morning girls.
00:43:50Good morning.
00:43:51Today we welcome the girls...
00:43:53Now we're matchy matchy.
00:43:55...to team R&H.
00:44:00They are looking mint.
00:44:03Wow.
00:44:06Me and the girls went to Coco Republic,
00:44:09and Emilio out there is an absolute legend.
00:44:13So it's got that minimalist look.
00:44:15Wow.
00:44:16He already had the furniture that I'd already pre-selected,
00:44:18lined up, seamless experience.
00:44:20Oh my god.
00:44:23Yeehaw!
00:44:25We went to the plant shop hoping to just buy some plants,
00:44:27and then we came across a ride-on turtle.
00:44:31Tortoise!
00:44:33It's $389.
00:44:35Do we have enough in the budget?
00:44:37No.
00:44:39Well, when someone says no, we want to prove them wrong.
00:44:42Great work girls.
00:44:43Perfect.
00:44:44Alright.
00:44:45So we've still got a ton of paving to do,
00:44:48and HomePro DIY blinds around the exterior
00:44:51just to keep the warmth in there.
00:44:53We've been working on design for a massive fireplace with stoke.
00:44:57So this one here is the EK1550?
00:45:00Yep.
00:45:01Pizza oven?
00:45:03Sweet.
00:45:04So we chucked the flue in.
00:45:07We've got to work out these installation instructions.
00:45:10I thought that it was pretty simple,
00:45:12but the first piece, unfortunately, was upside down.
00:45:15Just the internal skin is pointing going down, not up.
00:45:18Nice.
00:45:19Okay.
00:45:20Oh, you had a 50-50 chance.
00:45:21Nine and Six decided to come and fix the flue of the fireplace,
00:45:24so that was good of them.
00:45:29That was the most fun week on the block, by far.
00:45:37We hope that the judges take into consideration
00:45:40the amount of effort to paint that ceiling.
00:45:42We managed to get all the pavers down,
00:45:45and that the space actually has a very, very luxe feel to it.
00:45:53Oh, wow.
00:45:54Oh!
00:45:55Wow.
00:45:56This is massive.
00:45:58How many V-Luxes are there?
00:46:00There's 24 different V-Luxes.
00:46:02This is massive.
00:46:03How many V-Luxes are there?
00:46:05There's 24 different V-Luxes,
00:46:07two big-ass fans,
00:46:09and a whole bunch of appeal.
00:46:11The team that put this together is Ricky and Hayden
00:46:14and Eliza and Liberty.
00:46:16Who aren't known for their style.
00:46:19This is the most chic version of Ricky and Hayden
00:46:22and Eliza and Liberty we have ever seen.
00:46:26You have done a wonderful job
00:46:28with amazing furniture from Coco Republic.
00:46:32It's interesting that this is all Coco Republic furniture
00:46:36and it doesn't look like a showroom or a catalogue.
00:46:40It looks very cohesive, it's very balanced.
00:46:43We have two large dining tables
00:46:46and we have got a big, open living space
00:46:49where you can seat lots of people and be poolside
00:46:52or you can be fireside.
00:46:54The construction on this is epic.
00:46:58The way it is detailed,
00:47:00what a nightmare to paint this ceiling.
00:47:03Man, I don't know how they even did it.
00:47:05But to produce it, you need a craftsman
00:47:08and we all know Spence from the Gatwick.
00:47:11His quality and attention to detail
00:47:14to work on those beams and this structure
00:47:16takes time and essence.
00:47:19So hats off to the team that put this together.
00:47:21Congratulations, Spence, for all your hard work.
00:47:24Thanks, Spence.
00:47:28Out of all the spaces that we see today,
00:47:31it's arguably the area that will be used the most
00:47:34within the resort all year round.
00:47:36Because in summer, you've got these amazing roll-down blinds
00:47:39which protect you from that heavy summer sun.
00:47:42But then in winter, I mean,
00:47:44I couldn't think of a better place to be
00:47:46than next to that fire burning.
00:47:48I just love this whole space.
00:47:50Onto the flooring, and Darren thinks this stone
00:47:53is absolutely beautiful.
00:47:56It's Beaumont tiles.
00:47:58It's 30mm thick and it's real natural stone.
00:48:01Yeah, and it's all different.
00:48:04It's got petrified wood, it's got agate.
00:48:06It's a colour that you will never see any dirt or mud.
00:48:10You don't have to constantly mop,
00:48:12you don't have to constantly sweep.
00:48:14So the selection of this stone, I think, is perfection.
00:48:18And it works with the brick, the timber.
00:48:21It all complements each other.
00:48:23Marty said the SK fireplace is phenomenal.
00:48:26You've got the ability to put a pizza up the top,
00:48:30throw some snags on, a steak.
00:48:32You've got another area over here.
00:48:34I've never seen a fireplace like this before.
00:48:36No.
00:48:37I want one.
00:48:39Darren smiled and said,
00:48:41I can't see anything here that I can't call perfect.
00:48:45Woo! How wonderful!
00:48:50This structure is a gift, right?
00:48:52Spencer's craftsmanship as a starting point, amazing.
00:48:55Then 24 Veluxes, amazing.
00:48:58The perfect planters with the perfect plants.
00:49:01We have this copper lighting that's inside the Veluxes.
00:49:05We've got these great screens that, you know,
00:49:08make this wind-tight and weather-tight.
00:49:10Every detail's been considered,
00:49:12everything has been planned perfectly.
00:49:14We have Sonos out here, so the sound's going to be amazing.
00:49:18It's just a lifestyle bonanza.
00:49:22Shayna would have liked to have seen the final styling
00:49:25taken up a notch.
00:49:26Oh, for God's sake.
00:49:29Eliza and Liberty weren't known for it
00:49:31and the boys weren't known for it as well,
00:49:33is just the finishing of styling.
00:49:35I'm not a big fan of those two vases just sitting.
00:49:38Like, I just feel the dream a bit more of that one.
00:49:40I would have liked just a little bit more styling.
00:49:42It's not about money, it's not about expense,
00:49:44but just that tiny little bit extra.
00:49:47I thought they would have had you at the limits.
00:49:51MUSIC
00:49:54If I was a bowl like that.
00:49:56Darren, however, said it's simple and pared back.
00:50:00The materiality is all superb.
00:50:04Architecturally, it's gorgeous.
00:50:06Lifestyle-wise, it's amazing.
00:50:08The colour palette is beautiful.
00:50:10It's so simple and pared back.
00:50:12I'm very, very, very impressed.
00:50:15Darren was actually feeling a little intimidated as a designer.
00:50:19Yeah.
00:50:20What?!
00:50:21That's what I was expecting, I was like...
00:50:23This is next level.
00:50:25Well done, Rikki and Hayden, live living.
00:50:27You did it!
00:50:29APPLAUSE
00:50:32We had an amazing week.
00:50:33We created an amazing space.
00:50:35We're so proud of it.
00:50:36And to do it with the girls as well,
00:50:38it's such a great way to finish off this block experience.
00:50:41I've got goosebumps.
00:50:42Maybe we should have put the turtle in the vases.
00:50:45We should have.
00:50:46Or the turtle holding the vase.
00:50:48MUSIC
00:50:57OK, house four.
00:50:58I've got written here, Carl and Brad, but it's Jimmy and Tim.
00:51:01Didn't think I'd hear that ever again.
00:51:03MUSIC
00:51:09It's unreal to be back.
00:51:10Amazing.
00:51:11Amazing.
00:51:12We're still pinching ourselves
00:51:14that we were actually chosen to be here.
00:51:19The competition now is between four houses only.
00:51:23So Jimmy, Tam and Ben,
00:51:25they're going to build a games room for the benefit of everybody.
00:51:29APPLAUSE
00:51:32Kylie had designed some elements of that space previously.
00:51:38And when you're coming into a design
00:51:41that has already been started...
00:51:44It's difficult.
00:51:45It is.
00:51:46We'll get it.
00:51:47We'll get it.
00:51:48Yeah, it'll be fine.
00:51:49I wanted it to be speakeasy vibes.
00:51:52Because we've got a pool table,
00:51:53I think we want like a high bar, a couple of stools.
00:51:56But have a colour palette that was just warm and inviting.
00:52:00So I contacted Damien from Grafico.
00:52:03It is a games room, yes.
00:52:05And the image that we came up with
00:52:08was the inspiration for that space.
00:52:11Look at it, it's perfect.
00:52:13MUSIC
00:52:17We VJ'd up to 2.7.
00:52:20Yeah.
00:52:21Because I knew that I didn't need to wait for plaster to set.
00:52:24I could be painting as quick as possible.
00:52:27So it meant that I could paint Wednesday.
00:52:29That's half the room essentially painted
00:52:31before the majority of teams had even stopped up their plaster.
00:52:38For this space,
00:52:39I did a lot of shopping at vintage stores and op shops.
00:52:43I love it, I love it, I love it.
00:52:45Op shop queen.
00:52:46We've got some really cool stuff.
00:52:48How fun's that?
00:52:51We had cabinetry designed for our space.
00:52:54And in the centre island bench,
00:52:56you press a button and motorised whiskey bars come up.
00:53:01So, I mean, that is like sort of James Bond stuff.
00:53:07Our space looks magnificent.
00:53:09I actually can't believe that we've done this.
00:53:13This experience has changed our block story.
00:53:17We were tainted with our auction.
00:53:21We did have an imposter come in by our house
00:53:25and, you know, we both suffer from a bit of imposter syndrome.
00:53:29It's true.
00:53:30Having this experience and having such a good time
00:53:33and, you know, it really just does reignite your love for the block.
00:53:37Yeah.
00:53:38And if we get the win, even more.
00:53:41Yeah.
00:53:52It as a whole, I'm so proud of.
00:53:55Yeah.
00:53:56And I'm proud of you.
00:53:57Oh, I'm proud of you too.
00:53:58It's great.
00:53:59It's such an amazing space.
00:54:00Yeah.
00:54:01It's just got that warmth.
00:54:03I can see so much fun being had in that room.
00:54:06Yeah.
00:54:08Oh!
00:54:09This gets better every time you turn around.
00:54:13Oh!
00:54:14Is this the block?
00:54:16This is insane.
00:54:18Evidently it is because there's the Channel 9 logo.
00:54:20Yes.
00:54:21That's quite smart.
00:54:22In the skylights, that's awesome.
00:54:24Beautifully done too.
00:54:25Lovely detailing.
00:54:27And look at this colour palette.
00:54:29Like these browns and autumnal tones, very on trend.
00:54:33It's bolshy and risky and to do something with browns and cream in it.
00:54:38I mean, a couple of years ago, you would just absolutely say that's a no-go.
00:54:43But it's pretty nice.
00:54:45Marty said looking around, this is a room that really pulls you in.
00:54:49You've got the bar, the games, the billiards, footy on the TV.
00:54:54There's heaps of seating within the area.
00:54:57It's just so practical, but it's not lacking on that design front.
00:55:01It is still stunning.
00:55:03Even just looking around the room, seeing the Pac-Man, the simulator.
00:55:08This is like the fun factory, but for adults.
00:55:11I want to play it.
00:55:13Darren then had a crack at the SimWorks simulator.
00:55:16Oh!
00:55:17Can you see a map anywhere?
00:55:19No, just drive.
00:55:24There's your rear vision mirror.
00:55:25No, no, go paddles, go paddles.
00:55:27Paddles, paddles, paddles.
00:55:29You've got a ride coming up.
00:55:31Oh, mate, this is, I'm rubbish.
00:55:34I'm rubbish!
00:55:36Oh!
00:55:40Oh, I smashed the car.
00:55:43Little side note, never get a lift with Darren.
00:55:47He's a terrible driver.
00:55:49Well, Jimmy and Tam certainly haven't crashed this room.
00:55:52No, let's get back to here.
00:55:55Look at the quality of what Kinsmen have done.
00:55:58Then we have more decked on,
00:56:00which really works with Carly and Brad's house.
00:56:03But everything else in here says Jimmy and Tam.
00:56:06And look at that.
00:56:10Shared booze.
00:56:12They love the booze rising up out of the centre too.
00:56:15Darren said getting a pool table that looks good is a challenge.
00:56:19And that is beautiful.
00:56:21It looks like it has heritage.
00:56:23It looks finessed and it's really quite stylish.
00:56:26The amazing comments kept flowing and flowing.
00:56:30I just love the sense of warmth in here.
00:56:34It's the colour, it's the skylights,
00:56:36it's these beautiful overhead pendant lights.
00:56:39We have beautiful task lighting that lights up the room.
00:56:44The judges thought this room is really hard to knock.
00:56:48Styled well, great size.
00:56:51There's going to be so many people congregating around this table,
00:56:54chewing the fat, having fun.
00:56:57You know what the sad thing about this is?
00:57:00This isn't in the race at the competition.
00:57:02You know what's crazy? I feel like this could have been a winner.
00:57:06It's quite extraordinary.
00:57:08Talk about all-stars, they said.
00:57:11Bloody legends.
00:57:13Jimmy and Tam have always been go-getters,
00:57:17brilliant attitude and they just keep pushing
00:57:20and they deliver great results.
00:57:23So huge credit to Jimmy and Tam.
00:57:26Well done. I agree.
00:57:28There wasn't a lot in it for them to do this alone
00:57:31and they have just knocked it out of the ballpark.
00:57:34And that is it, Jimmy and Tam.
00:57:41That was a massive effort. That was a really big week.
00:57:45We needed to make our space cohesive with everything else
00:57:48to lift the value of the entire space,
00:57:51to help everyone win as much as they possibly can.
00:57:53Yeah, exactly, and just knowing that we've helped them achieve that
00:57:57is really, it's a win for us.
00:57:59Yeah.
00:58:08Our spot, Christian and Mimi and Alicia and Lissandra.
00:58:15Will you be my comfort?
00:58:20This week we finished the block.
00:58:23Yes, this week we finished the block.
00:58:25How does that make you feel?
00:58:28Um, sad, happy.
00:58:32Proud.
00:58:33Yeah, proud. All the emotions.
00:58:35Every single emotion out there.
00:58:40This week we are doing the cinema room.
00:58:43It's a big space though.
00:58:45It's big.
00:58:46We were so fortunate to get Alicia and Lissandra block royalties.
00:58:53We thought you might have designer fatigue,
00:58:56so we were like, well, we'll come with something prepared.
00:59:00They showed us a render.
00:59:02LED backlit arches.
00:59:04Graphic code with return.
00:59:06Rendered wall.
00:59:08Done.
00:59:14Alicia and Lissandra are very methodical with the way they shot.
00:59:18No, it's not right.
00:59:20But if it was paired with his behind, maybe.
00:59:24And they have disagreements.
00:59:26I like this table.
00:59:27Oh, I don't like that.
00:59:29I like this one.
00:59:30No, I don't like that.
00:59:32But that is the process to get to that final product.
00:59:37This is the process.
00:59:39It is the process.
00:59:43So with our cinema room, we walk in through a kitchen.
00:59:47We've got like secret doors.
00:59:49That look like cabinetry.
00:59:51But that opens into the cinema.
00:59:53Straight into your cinema.
00:59:54That's cool.
00:59:57Curtains.
01:00:01Oh, that's pretty.
01:00:03And that, my friends, is it.
01:00:06You are done.
01:00:07You did the block.
01:00:08How do you feel?
01:00:14It's over.
01:00:15No, it's not.
01:00:19It's going to be really hard going back to normal life.
01:00:23It's going to be hard to be away from Courtney and Grant.
01:00:28Everyone.
01:00:29Crew, everyone.
01:00:32Never in our wildest dreams did we think we could actually do this.
01:00:36With absolutely zero experience.
01:00:39We did it.
01:00:40We did it.
01:00:42We did it.
01:00:43And we had fun while we did it.
01:00:45And I think that's something I'll never regret.
01:00:56I think out of the two areas, we're most proud of the cinema.
01:01:00I think it's the living room.
01:01:02We keep saying that, so I'm just not going to say it.
01:01:04I know, true.
01:01:06We don't want to get our hopes up, to be honest.
01:01:09Alright, let's see this kitchen.
01:01:13This is beautiful.
01:01:14It's the same walnut.
01:01:16Well, the floor does carry through.
01:01:18There wasn't a line in the sand, but they've taken it a different direction.
01:01:22Which is nice.
01:01:23The walnut looks beautiful though, doesn't it?
01:01:25Yeah.
01:01:26And in a common area, it's actually these newer materials that are easier to manage, claim, upkeep.
01:01:33And that return finish is so cool.
01:01:36Yeah, I know.
01:01:37Don't get too dirty.
01:01:38Oh, it's actually not return.
01:01:41That's a print.
01:01:42You knew that.
01:01:43I could see your eyes.
01:01:44I knew that.
01:01:45I didn't know.
01:01:46I definitely didn't pick that up.
01:01:47It's a new Polytech product.
01:01:49I only know it because I've seen it on the website.
01:01:51It's interesting, isn't it?
01:01:52You look at the materials they've used in here.
01:01:54The colour palette's gorgeous.
01:01:55But we have a laminate flooring.
01:01:57We have laminate door panels.
01:01:59We've got decton surfaces.
01:02:01They're very durable, very hard-wearing materials.
01:02:05They're also really impressed with the render finish on the wall.
01:02:08Is that line washed or is that...
01:02:10I don't know, what is this?
01:02:12I think it's like a...
01:02:13A paint finish?
01:02:14No.
01:02:15Yeah, no, it's like a rough...
01:02:16It's like a render.
01:02:17It's like a render.
01:02:18It's a rough render.
01:02:19I love it.
01:02:22The judges then noted the quality of the appliances from E&S.
01:02:26The LG fridge.
01:02:28Did you know that does party mode?
01:02:30No.
01:02:32You actually push a button, does party mode, lights up,
01:02:36so perfect for out here.
01:02:38And then Shona demonstrated the Unox Kasa oven.
01:02:45So it used to be just for commercial kitchens,
01:02:47but now they're doing it for homes.
01:02:49So what you do, you go into your manual,
01:02:52you go into an auto cook,
01:02:54and say you want to roast something,
01:02:55so you go into your roasting.
01:02:57You want to cook...
01:02:58I'm going to say chicken.
01:03:00Then you can work out, do I like it light, medium, brown,
01:03:04and then you just push it, and off you go.
01:03:08They then discovered some beautifully styled shelving.
01:03:13James Bond eat your heart out.
01:03:15Oh, my gosh, look at this.
01:03:16Oh, yeah.
01:03:17Oh, I love this.
01:03:18Oh, yeah.
01:03:19Which turned out to be secret doors into the cinema.
01:03:31Oh, this is not normal.
01:03:37What the actual?
01:03:41Look at this cinema.
01:03:43Marty was so astonished.
01:03:45I can't...
01:03:47I can't believe what I'm seeing.
01:03:51Oh, I just, like, had to run through the, like...
01:03:55This is one of the best rooms I've ever seen, period.
01:03:58Oh!
01:04:04Oh, my goodness.
01:04:05This is just...
01:04:07Oh, my gosh.
01:04:10Where do we start?
01:04:12Well, one, that we're yelling our heads off,
01:04:14and the acoustics are so incredible in here.
01:04:17Due to this.
01:04:18Look at the cabinetry.
01:04:19I know, this is the thing.
01:04:20Look at the cabinetry.
01:04:22Look at that, look at that, look at that.
01:04:24Where do we start?
01:04:25That's the point.
01:04:26OK, if you were to shoot this room and stick it on the ad,
01:04:29and you were advertising your Airbnb,
01:04:31or even if you were coming down here with your family,
01:04:34and they knew that you had access to this, this wins.
01:04:38This is the most appealing room by a country mile.
01:04:42People are going to go wild for this.
01:04:45Shona said, look around.
01:04:51Look at all the shapes.
01:04:52Like, we have the beautiful curved niches
01:04:55that have a thick slab render on it, which is beautiful.
01:04:58Then we have these beautiful arches that are feature-lit,
01:05:02which is brilliant, cos otherwise it's just curtains.
01:05:05Those beautiful lights.
01:05:07Did they need them? No.
01:05:09But, God, I'm so glad they did.
01:05:11Shona thinks this collaboration is literally a match made in heaven.
01:05:16They've really worked hard together
01:05:18to create this sense of wow factor with the zen-like feel.
01:05:23The little lights that they've placed on either side of these seats
01:05:27are just sort of like 1940s, 50s.
01:05:30Like, it's just got this timeless elegance to it.
01:05:33Walking through those James Bond-like doors,
01:05:37you are taken totally away.
01:05:3920 seasons of The Block.
01:05:41Every single room.
01:05:43And this is the last one that we've seen in 20 seasons of The Block,
01:05:48and it just happens to be the best we've ever seen.
01:05:51What a wonderful symphony to the end!
01:05:58Yes!
01:05:59It was seriously the best week.
01:06:01Like, we literally would not have wanted to do it with anybody else.
01:06:04You guys are so amazing.
01:06:05And we, like, truly love you guys.
01:06:08Oh, we love you too.
01:06:09And we hope that you take it up!
01:06:10Yay!
01:06:11And we live in the same state!
01:06:12Yeah, the Mighty Southers, yeah!
01:06:15No, they can't get rid of me!
01:06:18The judges finish with some comments for all of you.
01:06:21I think this adds so much value to everybody's house
01:06:26that any downfall that their houses have had
01:06:29will be made up for here.
01:06:31So I guess what you're saying is
01:06:33every single house in The Block right now, then, is a steal.
01:06:36Oh, and I'll tell you why it's a steal, Darren,
01:06:39because I've seen incredible amenities over my career,
01:06:42but you only see them in buildings that can afford to pay for them.
01:06:48So you see this type of amenity
01:06:52when you've got 70, 80, 90, 100 different properties
01:06:57within that development,
01:06:59because these amenity spaces are so expensive to build.
01:07:02You actually get that level and more here,
01:07:06but you're only ever sharing it with maybe another 20, 30, 40 people, max.
01:07:10Wow.
01:07:11So that's what makes this a total anomaly.
01:07:14This will never be done again.
01:07:15This is a one-off in Australia.
01:07:22It's an astounding way to finish 20 seasons of The Block.
01:07:25Yeah. Well, there'll be no walkouts tonight.
01:07:27It's all just kicking your heels
01:07:29and celebrating with a glass of bubbles.
01:07:32The judges walked in today not knowing what to expect,
01:07:35and you have exceeded every possible expectation.
01:07:40An incredible job, all of you.
01:07:43Well done. Round of applause.
01:07:50Time for the scores.
01:08:03Time for the scores.
01:08:04Time for the scores.
01:08:12OK, Darren Palmer, Maddy and Charlotte.
01:08:17It's just a beautiful, balanced, neutral,
01:08:20very coastal-appropriate holiday destination design.
01:08:25I love, I love it. Wow.
01:08:29Oh!
01:08:35Hey, how could Darren be Paris?
01:08:37You've got to love Paris.
01:08:40Courtney and Grant. Yes.
01:08:44We have many different timbers in this space,
01:08:46but they all work because they've all been tied together.
01:08:48That's an expert eye.
01:08:50That's somebody that knows what they're doing,
01:08:52and I can say that as equally for Steph and Dianne
01:08:54as I can for Courtney and Grumpy.
01:08:59Oh!
01:09:01Rick and Hayden.
01:09:05Architecturally, it's gorgeous.
01:09:07Lifestyle-wise, it's amazing.
01:09:09The colour palette is beautiful.
01:09:11This is next level.
01:09:18Jimmy and Tam. Oh, Jimmy and Tam.
01:09:22Jimmy and Tam have always been go-getters, brilliant attitude.
01:09:27There wasn't a lot in it for them to do this alone,
01:09:30and they have just knocked it out of the ballpark.
01:09:35Oh, jeez.
01:09:37Christian M.A.
01:09:4120 seasons of The Block.
01:09:43Every single room.
01:09:45And this is the last one that we've seen in 20 seasons of The Block,
01:09:49and it just happens to be the best we've ever seen.
01:09:56Oh!
01:09:58Adam Savage!
01:10:01Wow.
01:10:05OK, Marty Fox.
01:10:07Maddie and Charlotte.
01:10:09I can't see anything that I'd want to change.
01:10:11It's just so good.
01:10:16Courtney and Grant.
01:10:20This is great planning, incredible design, amazing amenity.
01:10:24I have never seen anything like this before.
01:10:31Ooh.
01:10:33Rikki and Hayden.
01:10:37Out of all the spaces that we see today,
01:10:39it's arguably the area that will be used the most.
01:10:43I just love this whole space.
01:10:47Ooh.
01:10:49Jimmy and Tam.
01:10:52It's just so practical, but it's not lacking on that design front.
01:10:56It is still stunning.
01:11:01Ooh!
01:11:08Christian and Mimi.
01:11:10Ooh!
01:11:12Walking through those James Bond-like doors,
01:11:16you are taken totally away.
01:11:24Ooh!
01:11:30Ooh!
01:11:32Wow.
01:11:34I'll see you in a second.
01:11:36They're getting the perfect 30s.
01:11:40OK, Shona Blaze.
01:11:44It's beautiful, and I think they should be so proud,
01:11:46and how incredible for Maddie and Charlotte.
01:11:50Courtney and Grant.
01:11:53We have Japandi, a Mediterranean, working as a team,
01:11:58and this is what it produces.
01:12:04Rikki and Hayden.
01:12:09The construction on this is epic.
01:12:13The way it is detailed.
01:12:15What a nightmare to paint this ceiling.
01:12:18Man, I don't know how they even did it.
01:12:20Jimmy and Tam.
01:12:23I just love the sense of warmth in here.
01:12:28It's the colour, it's the skylights,
01:12:30it's these beautiful overhead pendant lights.
01:12:33Go on.
01:12:35Christian and Mimi.
01:12:39They've really worked hard together
01:12:41to create this sense of wow factor with the zen-like feel.

01:12:50and taking $50,000 off their reserve,
01:12:53thanks to Disney+, is...
