Transcript
00:00It's been nearly 12 weeks on the block.
00:04We have cried.
00:07We have celebrated.
00:10We have felt every emotion.
00:13I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
00:16That's what the block's about.
00:17And it all comes down to this week.
00:19Final week of the block.
00:20Front yard and front facade week.
00:22It's the week to win.
00:24Tonight.
00:24Cheers.
00:25Let's get to work.
00:26The house two's front facade is growing nowhere fast.
00:30House two's done nothing all day.
00:32That's our landscape.
00:33One rock.
00:34Nothing's happening.
00:35Why is nothing happening?
00:36What is the plan?
00:38I'm getting worried now.
00:39The only thing growing at house five is the landscaper's bill.
00:44We don't have the money.
00:45Robbie and Matt, they're going to have to pull the rabbit out of a hat here.
00:47I need to pay my guys.
00:49And a front facade faux pas shocks the block.
00:53That's awful.
00:54Is it real?
00:54Looks good.
00:55But what were you really thinking?
00:57It's f***ing terrible.
00:58That has just knocked them out of the competition.
01:03Ah!
01:04Ow!
01:05Ow!
01:05Ow!

01:26Monday morning, it's foggy as hell.
01:32It's two degrees.
01:33Did you say Monday morning?
01:35Tuesday morning.
01:36It's foggy as hell.
01:38I've got a bit of block brain.
01:39I've got a bit of block brain.
01:42You say block brain?
01:43I had a bit of block brain.
01:44You did.
01:45You did.
01:46I feel like you've had a lot of that.
01:48Wow.
01:49Even week one.
01:50Whoa.
01:51To confirm, it's Tuesday morning on the final week of the block.
01:55One day.
01:56One day.
01:57One day.
01:58One day.
01:59Our teams have just six days till they reveal their front facade, the final element to completing
02:04their homes.
02:05One day.
02:06One day.
02:07One day.
02:08One day.
02:09One day.
02:10One day.
02:11Each team has also been presented with a list of issues inside their homes that have to
02:16be rectified.
02:17One day.
02:18We need to get 237 defects done by Sunday.
02:21Yep.
02:22As well as a front yard.
02:23When did you become a comedian, Dad?
02:28You're so funny.
02:29Aren't the couple with the most defects uneven on site this morning as they were treated to
02:36their first getaway of the season.
02:38To celebrate Alicia turning years old.
02:46Yeah.
02:47Last night we stayed in here at the Royal at Zalesford.
02:51The publican put us up when he heard it was Alicia's birthday.
02:54So, just let her have a bit of a sleep in and come back to pick her up.
02:59Let's go.
03:00Next.
03:01Five is in the house.
03:02That's what I said.
03:03Need the tea.
03:04We tried to get for the lot.
03:05Yeah, so we got chumps to get away.
03:08It was great.
03:09The bed was so comfy.
03:10Did you have a heated blanket on?
03:12I was by no way heated up.
03:14I was.
03:15I was.
03:16Woke up on fire.
03:17My first shower in 83 days.
03:20He's had a shower.
03:21First proper shower.
03:22Yes.
03:23Yeah.
03:24First non-caravan shower.
03:26Yes, thank you.
03:27I washed my hair and everything.
03:28Oh.
03:29So good.
03:30That was 100% the reset that we needed.
03:32We're back.
03:33Back on site today.
03:34We're going to have some fun.
03:36We're going to laugh.
03:37And we're going to win this week.
03:39What a week for House Four to potentially bag their first room win of the season.
03:45What's up for grabs this week?
03:47Well, I'll tell you what's up for grabs.
03:49Um, if we're going to do this again, let's get the handsome fella back.
03:53We have two MG's.
03:55One MG Ute.
03:56MG Ute that will sit in the driveway and get sold with the house auction day.
04:00One MG's coming home with us.
04:02And $50,000 off your reserve for money.
04:05Huge price.
04:06That's the biggest win.
04:07You've got to be going hard this week to win this because that can be the difference between winning and glock.
04:11Okay.
04:12Okay.
04:13Here we go.
04:14Alright, let's move on from taking the piss out of a national treasure.
04:19And check in with House Two.
04:21Or as the girls want their home to be known as, Flo Estate.
04:28So tell me about the term Flo Estate.
04:31Yeah, so Flo Estate is a play on the words Flo Estate.
04:35We've got lots of curves and rounded skylights and features.
04:39We want the inside and the outside to have that flow.
04:42We want you to like enter the home and feel enveloped that you're on a journey and that things are moving calmly.
04:50But staying calm.
04:51Can you just stop getting up me because I'm going to lose it in a minute.
04:54Has been in short supply for the girls this week.
04:57So much so that their builder Shan stepped in with a solution to bring back some Flo Estate.
05:02You go get the paint.
05:03You go organise the list please.
05:05Hannah stays outside.
05:07Can stays inside.
05:08And no bickering this week.
05:11And the hope is this new sense of House Two, Harmony and Flo, will extend into their front facade design.
05:18This week we're continuing our theme with Christian Jenkins who's doing a Japanese inspired landscape.
05:24Japanese.
05:25We've been to some Airbnbs with Japanese gardens and we just feel like they're very zen.
05:31A big focus on curves, a big focus on tranquility.
05:35We always want to do a point of difference but feeling particularly inspired by Japan.
05:39Hey, stop there.
05:42Just because it's Japanese themed, we're not using a questionably tasteless headline like
05:49this.
05:50Or music like this.
05:51Or this sound effect.
05:56We're better than that.
05:58And so are the girls, who surely won't go down the clichƩ route.
06:02I get random spurts of creativity and I just thought, wouldn't it be cool if we had a big
06:11Tory gate above the driveway as a statement.
06:14Do you think it's cultural appropriation?
06:19What?
06:20Tory gates.
06:21Who's Tory gates?
06:22Judge's feedback last week was the Tory gates were a little bit hidden.
06:27So Han decided to stick a really big one somewhere really obvious.
06:36As well as their Tory gate, their front yard features a relaxing zen garden, a decorative
06:43rock sculpture house and timber armour.
06:48Front facade is a first impression of a home.
06:52What sets the tone for the rest of the house?
06:55What better than a three metre Japanese inspired Tory gate over our driveway?
07:00It's bigger than three metres.
07:05Last week we came out on the bottom but this week we're coming back with a fury and a vengeance
07:10and we're going to pull it off.
07:12Over at House 5 there's a question mark over whether they'll even finish this week as the budget battles
07:29between them and their landscaper continue.
07:31We had told him from day one our budget for the landscaping in total was $70,000.
07:42To do the job of front yard and backyard.
07:44This is it.
07:45The budget the boys allocated was to cover the likes of a flowing garden, a beautiful water feature
07:52and meandering Tuscan sand paths.
07:55But yesterday their landscaper Paul informed them of an additional unforeseen cost on top of their $70,000 budget.
08:04We're pretty shocked because he's probably 50% over the money we've allocated.
08:09We've got $34,000 outstanding.
08:13Sorry what?
08:14There's $20,000 that's gone from excessive engineering.
08:20MASH extra labour and custom poured footings.
08:24Didn't know about any of this.
08:26How was this not communicated?
08:29The communication hasn't been phenomenal.
08:33So I don't want there to be any expectation on us to pay more.
08:39That's not how it's going to work.
08:40Yeah.
08:41Front gravel path rebuild and extra drainage to legal point of discharge $11,000.
08:46It's $11,000.
08:47Yeah.
08:48That was where we made him pull it all up to do the aggie drain.
08:51Is your landscaper here?
08:52He is.
08:53I reckon he's out the back.
08:54Yeah, he's gone ahead and done all these works.
08:57Yeah.
08:58Without doing any sort of inspections or anything.
09:00Do you remember us receiving that email?
09:03Sub-grade inspections must be completed by a representative from nine and six.
09:09We need to see what's below this just to make sure we've got a good solid base.
09:12This is all going to be ripped up.
09:14He never took the time to read it all, open up the attached documents and fully understand what he had to do.
09:25I think that $11,000 one's on him for him not reading plans and taking the time to understand what was required.
09:31In total, there was about $29,000 worth of unforeseen costs on his end.
09:38I reckon you could at least halve that from what I'm hearing.
09:41Yeah, but there's no money to pay for half of it.
09:43No money to pay for a dollar of it.
09:45I mean zero.
09:46The only way we're going to finish this landscaping is if he finishes it and it's the $70,000, which we've already paid.
09:55And if he doesn't, then we give him what we can and he walks.
09:59You kind of need to, you want to, you know, you have to finish your landscape.
10:02Yeah, I know, but it's more the fact of he's wanting money, we can't get it.
10:07But I don't feel like he should still be working.
10:12Robbie, Matt, they're going to have to pull the rabbit out of a hat here because they need Paul to stay and finish his front yard.
10:18They're going to have to somehow negotiate something here with him.
10:21It's a variation bill that they didn't know about.
10:24Some of the variations I don't agree with, so there is room to negotiate.
10:28They need a front yard to sell the home.
10:30If you don't have a front yard or if it's left like this, they're not going to win the block.
10:35They might not even sell.
10:37It's front yard and facade week on the block.
10:48Over the past 82 days, the blockheads have turned empty spaces into show-stopping rooms.
10:55Holy ****.
10:57And one team are hoping to repeat the trick for the final time this week.
11:01Game on, Moss.
11:02Wow.
11:03Last week's winners, Emma and Ben, are finally back from their MG getaway to get stuck back into block life.
11:10Alright, that's off. That's on. Let's get to work.
11:14And speaking of stuck.
11:15Definitely in reverse.
11:16Yeah.
11:21Hold on for a second.
11:23Guess what I just saw.
11:25What?
11:264D doors.
11:27House 3.
11:28Garage door.
11:29We've got a bit of a reveal for our garage door.
11:32It's a risk.
11:33But there's a lot on the line this week.
11:36We thought we'd go big.
11:37So, the plan is to have this beautiful Indigenous artwork going on the garage door from Troy Firebrace to the Jar Jar people.
11:45But we don't want to display that so early on in the week so other people can alter their plans.
11:51So, the plan is to cover it up with something a bit light-hearted.
11:56Their secret weapon, a one-of-a-kind Indigenous artwork on their garage door, will be covered until Sunday with a unique Graphico creation.
12:05Damien from Graphico, there's nothing he can't do.
12:08He has created a beige dot abstract photo of myself and Britt holding two drills, standing back to back.
12:20And it's awful.
12:23But it's believable if you think we're flogs.
12:28So, you've got your faces on your garage door.
12:30Yeah.
12:31To be clear.
12:32But suddenly, not like in your face space.
12:34And it's beige, so it goes to the clean of the house.
12:36Troy!
12:37Troy!
12:38Would you put your face on your garage?
12:39Yeah, Troy's well aware of what we're doing.
12:41I'd buy it.
12:42I'd just...
12:43I'd just...
12:44Taz's just there in his bag.
12:51Dan doesn't know.
12:52Is Dan falling for it?
12:54Dan is completely falling for it.
12:55I think it's...
12:57I don't know.
12:58He pulled us aside.
13:00Numerous times.
13:01Told us, do not do it.
13:02Off camera.
13:03He called Troy, our landscaper, and said...
13:06Troy!
13:07Oh, I'm worried for him.
13:08He can't do it.
13:10Troy says, nah, we've got to sell Taz and Britt.
13:14This is their story.
13:16Dan hung up the phone.
13:19And, like, it's selling it to Dan, but as soon as it goes up tomorrow...
13:22We have to sell it to everyone else on the block.
13:24Everyone else on the block.
13:25Everyone else on the block.
13:26F***!
13:29With 24 hours till that big reveal, the biggest one, the blockhead's front yard, is only six
13:35days away.
13:36Will you be here all week or do you reckon you'll get out?
13:37I've got no idea.
13:38Time disappears very quickly around here.
13:40Yeah.
13:41And the prize of $50,000 off your reserve is the kind of coin some houses could do with
13:46now.
13:47It'd be great to have, like, a $50,000 budget for front yard week.
13:53And really rip into it.
13:56That's our landscape.
13:57One rock.
13:59It's minimalism.
14:02Yep.
14:03With this week's suggested budget for the front yard set at $20,000, plus defects to
14:09sort out, houses are feeling the pinch.
14:11So let's check in with a team who are masters at counting the coin.
14:18Here they are.
14:19Hi, mate.
14:20This is great to see.
14:21So all carpentry's nearly done in here?
14:24Yeah, it's all done.
14:25Now we've just got a gap in paint?
14:26Yeah.
14:27So you'll be out of here in a couple of days?
14:29Hopefully out of here maybe tomorrow, what's today?
14:31Tuesday, yeah, maybe.
14:32Wednesday or Thursday, depending on what happens outside.
14:34The last of everything this week.
14:35We'd hate to walk out of here without a win.
14:42We seem to keep getting pipped because we just don't have that little 1% thing to
14:46tick us over.
14:47So this week we're putting a big $260,000 caravan in the front.
14:53Yes, the quarter million dollar caravan they won back in week six will be their front yard showpiece.
15:01Along with a small seating area outside the guest bedroom.
15:04Generous lawn space and the only team to have a second driveway.
15:11Quintessential Aussie front yard.
15:13With a caravan in the front.
15:15We've left nothing in the bank, nothing in the tank.
15:18This is the last chance.
15:20We paid all our bills, mate.
15:21We paid every single bill we got.
15:22Every cent accounted for.
15:23How it should be.
15:24Our landscaper says that we owe him $30,000 of unforeseen costs.
15:36We have to address the issue today and come up with a solution.
15:41Yeah, talk about where we are moving forward to get it all forward.
15:44Yeah.
15:45We've never experienced someone just putting it on an extra nearly 50% on top of a bill.
15:51So Dan said there is room to, you know, negotiate it.
15:55We don't have the money to give him, we agreed on, $70,000 to do the job of front yard and backyard.
16:05So the boys have literally come to the table with their landscaper Paul and his wife and business partner Carmen to attempt to find a resolution.
16:14So we need to work out either is Paul going to finish the job or is he going to leave the job and Matt and I will finish it with our terrible landscaping skills.
16:22I guess, long story short, like we are stoked with the backyard, like it could not be better if we tried and we are so happy with you guys being our escapers.
16:29But it's just like what do we do moving forward because at the end of the day, Matt and I, we don't have the money.
16:37That's like full stop, we've got maybe $5,000.
16:42At the absolute max and that's going to be cutting back from finishing the house.
16:47Yeah, so we can't finish everything inside.
16:49Like, so the money is still outstanding for my business.
16:54I, I'm only a small business, have to say, do I have to take that front and go at a loss?
16:59I'm not sure the answer, that answer is.
17:01I don't think that's fair.
17:06But also, it's probably not fair.
17:09There wasn't any communication to say, hey guys, we're $5,000 over budget.
17:14Hey guys, we're $10,000 over budget.
17:16Hey guys, we're $15,000.
17:17There was.
17:18There was.
17:21It was communicated clearly.
17:22You guys are so flat out.
17:24I've got texts here.
17:25I've got proof here.
17:26It's been, even being on camera, Robbie said we've got an extra $20,000 from ComBank, was it?
17:32Yeah.
17:33It's, it was said, like, so the money was there.
17:35I was going off the money.
17:36I thought we had it.
17:38I need to pay my guys.
17:55It's probably not fair.
17:57There wasn't any communication to say, hey guys, we're $5,000 over budget.
18:02Hey guys, we're $10,000 over budget.
18:04Hey guys, we're $15,000.
18:05There was.
18:06It, it was communicated clearly.
18:10Look, it's, it's crazy, crazy.
18:12You're so busy.
18:13Yeah.
18:14And you probably just looked at, you know, the text message or the email really quickly.
18:17Um, these are all the different invoices.
18:19And then I put here.
18:21Hi Matt, balance owing from 22nd of May to 52k.
18:24There's, yeah, it's constant.
18:26There's emails and all that sort of stuff.
18:28Robbie said we've got an extra $20,000 from ComBank, was it?
18:31It's, it was said.
18:33I was going off the money.
18:34I thought, well, you had.
18:35Matt and I said, look, we probably can get you $20,000.
18:37And I said, I will confirm with you once we know exactly how much we've got.
18:41It might have been a little bit of miscommunication.
18:44Um, being in this situation, number one, we feel like we're letting Paul down.
18:50When it's not either of our intent or what we're about.
18:56Um, yeah, I just don't know what the next move is for us.
18:59Number two, we feel like, you know, we don't have the money to give him for what he's wanting and expecting.
19:11We obviously, you know, we put our hand up straight away.
19:13And if you guys, you know, we can't afford you, then we have to finish the job by ourselves, which we don't want.
19:17Well, I said I'd do the front.
19:19I'm happy to follow through.
19:21Paul, you know, we give him credit because he wants to finish the job.
19:27He wants to finish a beautiful front yard for house five on the block.
19:31I guess we just have to go away and work out where we can cut costs.
19:34You know, sending plants back, cancelling labourers.
19:37You can use Matt and I at your disposal for whatever you need us to do.
19:41100%.
19:42We are going to do absolutely everything we can to get as much money as we can to give to Paul.
19:49We're going to try our best to make whatever we can happen.
19:53Yeah.
19:54In my head, I'm like, okay, if we win a challenge, bang, 10 grand straight to you.
19:58And this week is, you know, double car and 50k off your reserve.
20:02Maybe give us a car.
20:05The main solution was that we finish.
20:08That's the only goal this week, that we finish our front yard.
20:10So Matt and I are just rolling up our sleeves and be Paul's labourers for a couple of days.
20:15So you're out helping.
20:16How are we going with DPEX inside?
20:18Uh...
20:19Couldn't give a ****.
20:21Couldn't give a ****.
20:28The difference in production as you look up and back?
20:32Oh, nothing.
20:33What's going on?
20:34House two's done nothing all day, really.
20:37Just throwing rock out the back.
20:41Nice size rocks.
20:42Yeah, beautiful.
20:45Landscaping may be slow going, but the girls are getting things done as they're sticking to Shan's separation order.
20:51Inside Shan is on defect duty.
20:58An outside hand is on a shopping mission.
21:06So you're sort of doing like a Japanese Zen garden.
21:08And so far, Shan's plan has seen a sharp decline in bickering.
21:12We're chasing a water feature.
21:18Bye, honey.
21:20Did you get my text messages?
21:23It's Toscan Bath Northcote Potteries.
21:25We could put one out on the, like...
21:27Barbecue area or al fresco, that's what I'm thinking.
21:31Hmm.
21:32It's not...
21:33The backyard's not going to be judged, so...
21:35I know, but, like, I'm trying to sort out a deal, alright?
21:38So just go with it and say which one you like, please.
21:42Uh, it's feeling a bit tense and awkward again, so let's move on.
21:46Oh, look, there's Alicia.
21:47Hello.
21:48What can we do for you today?
21:49I need lots of paint, please.
21:54I think I ended up with 77 litres of paint.
22:00I love painting.
22:01I find it therapeutic.
22:04I f***ing hate painting.
22:08Now, how's your front yard progressing?
22:10We've got the ramp going in, tiles, uh, all our trees out the front.
22:14We're reversing our caravan in, as that's being sold with the house.
22:18Uh, we've lined up a little sneaky car to stay in our driveway.
22:22I'd commandeered the MG.
22:24The ute that's up for grabs.
22:26I wanted to show the amenity of our place.
22:28Two driveways.
22:29Yeah, two driveways.
22:30So you can buy that house, you'll have the caravan and hopefully an MG ute.
22:36We're putting it out to the universe.
22:39Caravan, car, house.
22:42Win the block.
22:44Toodaloo.
22:46And so day 82 concludes on the block.
22:50No, sorry, no commercials yet.
22:52As I've literally just been told, there's a surprise for me in my sawmill.
22:58And I genuinely have no idea what it is.
23:02Ricky!
23:04I like you.
23:06You look good, Scotty.
23:07Looking very nice.
23:08So the end of Tuesday, we take Scotty into his sawmill.
23:13It's quite bizarre summoning Scotty to his own sawmill,
23:15when normally he's the one doing it for us and reading us for filth.
23:18I have been summoned.
23:20And that's the first time that's ever happened to me before.
23:23Who do you people pick you up?
23:25What's going on?
23:27Welcome.
23:29Hello.
23:30He was a bit taken aback at first, I think.
23:32He didn't know what was going on.
23:33Didn't know what was going on.
23:34I think he thought it was an absolute stitch up.
23:36What are we doing?
23:37Am I going to get some feedback?
23:40Pop down Scotty, this is our show at the moment mate.
23:43Sorry, my apologies.
23:45I've been asked to be the spokesperson, which is a big honour.
23:49Right.
23:50Here we go.
23:51Right.
23:53Scotty.
23:54Are you nervous?
23:55No, not at all mate.
23:56You should be.
23:58Scotty.
23:59Yes.
24:00What a pleasure to be standing up here in your place.
24:03Who would have thought in 11 and a half weeks that we've been here,
24:06we've not have only built a whole house,
24:09but we get the opportunity to take your place in front of the camera.
24:13Don't worry mate.
24:14I won't get too comfortable.
24:16You don't look comfortable at all.
24:18For all of us that stand here in front of you, and no doubt the previous blockheads, you've been so supportive and it's not often that you get any thanks.
24:27All that we seem to do is whinge about our scores, ask for more money, bicker between ourselves, and generally be a thorn in your side.
24:38So today we get to say thanks.
24:40We've all come down here at one stage and found you tinkering away on the swords and the wood miser.
24:45Seeing you on that wood miser the first day was like watching a child going down the slide for the first time.
24:50It was.
24:53Big smile on your face, looking like you're not going to let anyone else near it.
24:59We've managed to commandeer a portable wood miser LX-50 of your very own.
25:09Big smile and love, oh love, my mind, endless love.
25:18He was chuffed.
25:19I thought he was going to cry.
25:21Is that mine?
25:22That's yours mate.
25:23That's yours.
25:24So on behalf of the 2025 blockheads, we'd like to thank you for a great season.
25:29And we can't wait to see what wonderful creations you build with this.
25:32You're leading Scotty, thanks for it.
25:33Thank you Scotty.
25:34Well, this is the nicest thing that's ever happened to me in my life.
25:40It's absolutely incredible.
25:42He nearly got emotional.
25:43Yeah.
25:44He did have a tear in his eye.
25:46He was like, oh, Christ, that's what I was saying.
25:48That is so unreal.
25:50I've never been given a gift before.
25:52And you know what?
25:53Scotty's not really much of a hugger.
25:55This is unprecedented for me.
25:57I thank you so much and I feel, which I've never done before, a group hug.
26:03Yes.
26:05We love you Scotty.
26:06Probably the number one thing we get asked out in the streets is, how's Scotty Cam?
26:10How's Scotty Cam?
26:11What's he like in rural life?
26:12He's fantastic.
26:13Yeah, he's fantastic.
26:14He's like a dud and he's one of the best humans I've ever met.
26:16Yeah.
26:17And we're so very fortunate and lucky to be here.
26:18Yeah, we are.
26:19Now you guys are playing for the transport.
26:20No.
26:22Scotty, on camera and off camera, is the same bloke that you see.
26:23He's a good man.
26:24But he's also got a solid man.
26:25He's got a solid man.
26:26He's got a solid man.
26:27He's got a solid man.
26:28He's got a solid man.
26:29He's got a solid man.
26:30He's the same bloke that you see.
26:31He's a good man.
26:32But he's also got a soft, soft heart.
26:34I've been doing this for a long time.
26:35I've been at Channel 9 for 26 years and you guys have been my best.
26:39I promise you.
26:41That's really sweet.
26:42That means a lot.
26:44So it's wonderful.
26:45Okay, you can go to the edge now before I cry.
26:48Alright.
26:49It feels just like a little blur of three months.
27:13This has been our whole life, day in, day out.
27:15We have cried.
27:17We have celebrated.
27:18We have felt every emotion.
27:21Exhilarating.
27:22Depleted.
27:23Depressing.
27:24Happy.
27:25Sad.
27:26You know, even when you are kicked off site, your mind does not stop.
27:29Like, this is 24-7, seven days a week.
27:33But even for our most dedicated blockheads, cracks are appearing in their commitment this week.
27:38Had a bit of a sleep in, did we?
27:40Oh, I've not missed a single pre-start.
27:47Well, you have.
27:49Now.
27:50Now I have.
27:51Pre-start, for those who remember to attend it, is a mandatory daily safety briefing run
27:58by site supervisor and beacon of positivity, GMAC.
28:02Don't block anything.
28:04We'll just pick the car up.
28:05We'll put it out in the street.
28:06Been dying to do it all season.
28:08And non-attendance from a team is a big no-no.
28:11I know.
28:12Yeah, just...
28:13Phone's in charge and missed alarms, so...
28:17It's on us.
28:18Um, yeah, I've got to find Dad.
28:20Dan.
28:21Dad.
28:22Called Dan Dad.
28:23Can't play that.
28:24Um...
28:25What?
28:26Oh, I thought I got away with it.
28:31Mate!
28:32I know.
28:33I know.
28:34Unlike you.
28:35I know.
28:36Daddy does let you off lightly.
28:37I didn't call him Daddy.
28:38Well, you've never missed one.
28:39You've been very good.
28:40Yeah, it's just...
28:41Just up late doing stuff.
28:42Yeah, yeah, I had a bit of stuff to get done and...
28:43Okay.
28:44Yeah.
28:45Dan.
28:46Let us off with a warning.
28:47Oh, I appreciate it, Dan.
28:50For Daddy.
28:51For Daddy.
28:52For Daddy.
28:53For Daddy.
28:54I hate this.
28:55Ahhhh.
28:56No, you love Dad too much.
28:58I do love Dan.
29:12I don't care who you are.
29:17Where you're from, what you did
29:22You know these doggets, grommets?
29:28What lip is it?
29:29That's about 600 on the floor.
29:31As long as you love me, who you are
29:35As long as you love me
29:38You did a really good job.
29:40As long as you love me
29:47Are you buying me dinner next week?
29:50Is he?
29:50Yeah.
29:50As long as you love me
29:53So, compared to this time last week, how do you feel this week's going?
30:12Last Wednesday, I think Ben was crying in the corner
30:15And I was crying in the other corner
30:18So, it's a little bit different to last week.
30:21But the winners from last week will be hoping it's another outside space victory.
30:25The entrance is framed by bottle trees
30:27And a fern garden running along the front of the house
30:30Plus multiple sections with timber decking.
30:32Yeah, we've probably got three decks to build
30:36So, we've still got our work cut out for us.
30:38We've got our landscapes coming in tomorrow
30:40To smash out the rest of the front yard.
30:42I'm feeling good with where we're at.
30:43We still have a big week ahead of us
30:45But I think it's achievable.
30:47We think we've probably got the biggest area to landscape
30:50We'll see what everybody else delivers
30:54But I think we've got a strong front yard
30:56Yeah
30:57House won't officially have the biggest area to landscape
31:01With their neighbour one of the smallest
31:03Although, given its size
31:06Outside hand is progressing slowly
31:09In the front, where that garden bed is
31:15Yeah
31:15What sort of plants are we putting in there?
31:17I'd like to put some bamboo in some pots
31:20Yeah
31:21I was looking around and I was just like
31:24What's happening?
31:25Nothing's happening.
31:26Why is nothing happening?
31:29We'll be right
31:30What sort of pots?
31:32Um
31:33Um
31:36We love Christian
31:45He is such a visionary
31:51He's a creative
31:52But he moves at his own pace
31:54Um
31:57They're just so big
32:02These two boulders, aren't they?
32:03Yeah
32:03Doing front for side
32:05We can see all our neighbours
32:06We can see where they were at
32:07We can see lawn
32:08We can see structures
32:09And plants going in
32:11And we're like
32:12Rolling dirt around
32:14What is the plan?
32:18Everyone showed their cards early
32:20We're not showing ours
32:22We're keeping our garden a secret
32:25I know there's a plan
32:27I know that he'll get it done
32:29I know that he's like
32:29The hardest worker ever
32:31But for me
32:32It's uncomfortable
32:32When things aren't happening
32:34Especially after last week
32:36I think
32:36We're like
32:37Yeah
32:37What do we need to be doing
32:38To get this yard there?
32:39Yeah
32:40Hard progress can't be stopped
32:42At house three
32:43Who are now ready to reveal
32:45A unique front facade facelift
32:47To their competitors
32:48Oh my god
32:51I feel sick
32:52The house is Britton Taz guys
33:03So we made the house
33:04We designed the house
33:07So obviously people buy the house for us
33:08In our story
33:08And yeah
33:10We're really selling the story about Britton Taz
33:12And who they are
33:12I don't know how I'm going to keep this up
33:14Garage doors are here
33:17Did you change it?
33:19Change it?
33:19Have we changed it or not?
33:20We're rolling with it
33:22Word down that end of the street
33:23I still think that Fordan thought we were joking
33:27And then the door goes on
33:29Oh my god
33:37No
33:39What do you mean no?
33:42It's subtle
33:42It's subtle?
33:43Dan comes around
33:57Just hit the garage door
33:58Oh my god
34:05No
34:09There is our faces
34:12On the garage door
34:14Wow
34:19All you've said is wow
34:22Wow
34:24Didn't word spread quick
34:29Tell me that's a joke
34:33Is it real?
34:37Did you do this?
34:38We've taken a risk
34:40You don't watch the show Matt
34:41But people who buy these houses
34:43Buy into you and your story
34:44Look
34:44I love myself
34:46But I'm not that indulgent
34:47Wow
34:52I'm so sure that everyone thinks
34:55We're that big of flogs
34:57Everyone thinks we're that vain
34:58That we would actually do this
34:59You've got to be bold
35:00Yeah
35:01Do you like it?
35:03Looks good
35:03You look hot
35:05Well you
35:06Yep
35:06We're all for it
35:08Why
35:09If it takes a point off them
35:10It puts a point on us
35:11So it's all good
35:12Roll it
35:13Check this out
35:14I love it
35:15You love it
35:16It's good for our game
35:20Leave it
35:20Love it
35:21Wouldn't change a thing
35:22We told everybody
35:23Do not tell them otherwise
35:25You love it
35:26And it's great
35:27But what were you really thinking?
35:29It's terrible
35:30That has knocked them out of the competition
35:35That's really going to hurt them at auction
35:38Don't worry about judging
35:39I'm worried about auction for them
35:40Yeah
35:40That's the one
35:41That's what I'm worried about
35:42People were full bought into it
35:44Little do they know
35:45But behind that monstrosity
35:46Is a beautiful artwork
35:47And we can't wait to reveal that
35:49Yeah
35:49It's a little part of you like
35:50Maybe we'll keep it
35:51Absolutely not
35:53That is getting ripped off
35:56Like if I have to burn the house down
35:58That is going away
35:59To be honest
36:02I quite like it
36:03But I'll tell you what I like more
36:05I know you guys are a bit tight on budget
36:13And you've already started working hard
36:15And so
36:15You're the Bunnings' hardest worker for me
36:17You can have a baker's dozen
36:20Which is 13
36:21Any size
36:22Of any plant you want
36:28We're not having a palm tree
36:31That's a good prize
36:32That's a great prize
36:33Can I give you a hug?
36:36Yes, alright
36:36Come on
36:38Bye
36:46Thank you for the tree, Scotty
36:48No worries
36:49And now with their tree haul
36:52House 5's front facade
36:53Has renewed potential
36:55To stand out from the pack
36:56Oh God, you idiot
36:59You're throwing it everywhere
37:00I can't deal you today
37:03And having those game changers
37:05In your front facade
37:06Like House 3's outdoor cinema
37:08And House 4's caravan
37:10Could be the key to bagging those two MGs
37:13And $50,000 off your reserve
37:16Courtesy of Bunnings
37:17So there is now a worry at House 2
37:21They need more showstopping items
37:28Candice, this is important
37:30Like, are we going to get a sauna or are we not?
37:33No, we can't afford it
37:36Yes we can, we did the maths last night
37:39Hannah, why are you getting up?
37:42Because, Ken, I'm getting worried now
37:44Yeah, Ken and I take turns to freak out
37:48And overwhelm and get stressed
37:50So, um, today was my day
37:51Um, to do that
37:53I'm outside and I'm saying we have the money
37:56I sat down for hours into the maths
37:58So then buy it, Hannah
37:59Why are you yelling at me?
37:59Because I need your approval
38:01Buy it
38:02There you go
38:02There's my approval
38:03Well, no, but where do you want to put it
38:05And what does that look like?
38:07It has to go next to the pool cabana
38:09Because it's the only place they can rip out and run wires
38:12I would not be
38:16Right now
38:16This front yard is the most important thing
38:19This is what's getting judged
38:20But you realise that you have to have those things in your mind as well
38:24Oh, look
38:25Han is very strong-minded
38:29And when she's caught in a negative spiral
38:32It's hard to pull her out
38:34Okay, so look at everyone else's
38:36I'm focused on the front yard
38:39The back yard is done
38:40But it's also important
38:42What's going on?
38:45What's going on?
38:46But then Lee steps in as a voice of reason
38:50Please
38:51Let's just start rational
38:53Yeah
38:53And keep things calm
38:55What you've got to think about is the grand prize this week, right?
39:02Gives you a car for the house
39:04Which is a sale point
39:06Right, your priority is your front garden
39:11Yeah, exactly
39:11That's where you need to focus
39:15But he stepped in to spot you a little bit, Ken
39:20Was it nice to have Lee sort of help you out?
39:23Yeah, it's lovely to have Lee here
39:25And he knows Han very well and how crazy she is
39:29It's been an absolute rollercoaster of emotions
39:32Hannah and I have had tears
39:35Blood, sweat, crying, laughing
39:38But yeah, it wouldn't change it for the world
39:40It's been life-changing
39:42And I'm so proud of you
39:47And I'm so proud of what we've produced
39:50Without you
39:57Like, I could not have done this
39:59Like, you're my rock
40:01And literally, like, my world
40:05I just don't want a day without you ever again
40:08Like, I've just
40:09You're just the best thing in the world
40:11And it's been so amazing
40:12Being by your side
40:13Doing this together
40:14Oh, I love you
40:16You don't want just one day apart after this
40:19You're such a bitch
40:22It's official
40:37It's day 83 on the block
40:39A mere four days before our blockheads
40:41Will have fully completed their homes
40:43Is about to hit its conclusion
40:45We're fully planted Wednesday
40:49And we have turf a robin in the morning
40:51And then I'll be fully turfed tomorrow
40:53Way done
40:53What's that?
40:59What?
41:01Grab it
41:01What is it?
41:02I don't know
41:02Just a rock
41:03Gold nugget
41:04I think he's found gold
41:07He's struck gold
41:07That would be pretty funny
41:08Let me look
41:10I'm a geologist
41:10It's on my land, by the way
41:13Nah, fool's gold
41:15Fool's gold
41:17Alright
41:17That's why Dan found it
41:19Thank you for coming out
41:31Yeah, no
41:31Just trying to plan the front yard
41:33The lighting is a huge aspect
41:35So it's really important that we get this right
41:37Yeah, absolutely
41:38What are we thinking?
41:39So there's going to be lots of trees
41:40So I was thinking of using the spike lights
41:42I mean, we've got a lot of options for outdoor lighting
41:45It's a lot of people's first impressions to the house
41:47So we have to make sure that it really stands out
41:49Absolutely
41:49Feeling okay
41:51The boys from Love It Landscaping
41:52With a bit of progress outside
41:54I think we're going to have a beautiful front yard
41:57And I think the garage door
41:59That is great
42:02The real one
42:03Is going to be really incredible
42:07It's a statement piece
42:08The water feature is a statement piece
42:10The $30,000 outdoor cinema is a statement piece
42:13Like we've thrown everything at this front yard
42:14Because $50,000 off the reserve is amazing
42:16And imagine walking away with an MG
42:18And parking one in the driveway
42:20It's the week to win
42:22Yeah
42:22What at stake
42:23Who would you say
42:36Is the hardest worker
42:38Out of Em and Ben
42:40I would say
42:42Emma
42:43Because she's
42:4512, 20 weeks pregnant
42:46Oh
42:48I also think you're a hard worker too Benji
43:01Like you do a lot of back end work
43:04I need a paintbrush before Bunnings closes
43:11No, not really
43:13Okay
43:13Alright, I'm a house worker
43:15But our official Bunnings hardest workers
43:18Have hit another stumbling block
43:21In a week that's been full of them for the boys
43:25I go for a drive to the other side of Melbourne
43:34To pick up some garden edging
43:3630 metres worth of our curve we're using
43:42And they gave him one length
43:44Been dazed and confused
43:46For so long
43:47It's not true
43:48I'm about
43:49To explode
43:52I've done four hours in the car
43:53For one little bit of steel and a peg
43:56One I should have had 16
43:57Lengths
43:59I'm ready to kill someone
44:07I'm ready to kill someone
44:10I listened to some murder podcasts on the way there
44:15So do you know what?
44:16Don't tempt me right now
44:17Because I'm volatile
44:19What?
44:28Four more days
44:30Not that I'm counting
44:31I think you'll miss this lot
44:33Do you know what?
44:35I'm going to miss seeing everyone every day
44:37Because we've sort of
44:38We haven't thought of
44:39We've created a little family dynamic
44:41With everyone
44:42Like everyone has their ups and downs
44:43But best friends do
44:45Family does
44:46It's only normal
44:47Especially in a high pressure environment like this
44:49But I'm going to miss seeing them all every day
44:52You know
44:53Even the crazy ones
44:55What's she doing?
45:00Just smacking the boxes
45:01Smack of the box
45:02Smack of the box
45:03I'm going to miss her
45:08A lot
45:08We love her
45:09Hold me
45:11Okay
45:11Spin me around now
45:13Nine
45:15One more
45:15One more
45:16I feel weird in my tummy
45:21I just love Matt
45:24I love him so much
45:25Makes me emotional
45:26Alicia
45:26He's still death eyeing me
45:30Along to you Gold Coast
45:31Along to you
45:32He's one of those people
45:34That you could be having the worst day
45:35And he'll just give you
45:36The biggest
45:38Most heartfelt hug
45:39And he'll just say something
45:41So off the cuff
45:42And so inappropriate
45:43If you steal my couch
45:45I'm going to steal your husband
45:46That no matter how much you're crying
45:49You have to stop and laugh
45:50Such a good person
45:51Cheers girl
45:52Cheers
45:53Cheers
45:53What I love about Leesh
45:55Whoever loses is in the pool
45:57Same
45:58She said
45:59If we win this week
46:01I'm giving the car to my mum
46:02She wants to win
46:03To do something nice for other people
46:05There's not many people
46:11You come across in your life
46:12That are as kind
46:13And as genuine
46:14Go Leesh
46:15Go Leesh
46:16Go Leesh
46:17Go Leesh
46:17Go Leesh
46:17She's just such a kind soul
46:23And I feel so fortunate
46:25That both the boys
46:26Have been our neighbours
46:27That we've got to do this ride with them
46:28Means a lot to us
46:31Tomorrow night
46:33I've done something
46:34I actually don't know what to say
46:36Yeah
46:37It's crazy
46:37There are some unwelcome surprises
46:40For our blockheads
46:41Whoa whoa whoa
46:43That hasn't been proved
46:44Yes it has
46:45It's just one thing after another
46:47Hello
46:47It's feeling like
46:49Oh my gosh
46:49What else could go wrong
46:50And in the final days
46:52The competition gets rock hard
46:54It was awesome
46:56Seeing such a massive structure erected
46:59I feel like I need something
47:00A little bit larger
47:02I just don't get it
