SCOTT: Welcome back to The Block.

349
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,440
In case you missed it,
this just happened in House Five.

350
00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:59,520
There's going to be a problem.
What is it?

351
00:12:59,560 --> 00:13:02,320
Your tilers need to pack up and go.

352
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:05,480
They've presented us

353
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,360
with a dodgy certificate of currency
for their Workcover.

354
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:11,080
It doesn't exist.

355
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:12,920
DAN: It's fraudulent.
It's been doctored.

You're kidding?
Nah.

357
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,800
That will (BLEEP) do me.
Sorry, man.

358
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:21,400
On a day like today.

359
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,240
They should be gone now.

360
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,320
Yeah, I'll get them out,
but (BLEEP).

00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:27,840
Yeah, sorry for that inconvenience,
man.

363
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:29,120
That was never meant to be the case.

364
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,400
They got to get off site.
Their insurances are incorrect.

365

OMAR: Youse got to go.

366
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,480
The Workcover dates and stuff
are (BLEEP).

367
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:45,040
Well, bro, it's not our call.

368
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,200
Like, you can't work at the moment
until it's...

369
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,960
Obviously on The Block,
Nine In Six are very, very strict

370
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,440
when it comes to insurances
and that.

371
00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,800
No-one wants to pay
millions of dollars

372
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:01,320
if something happens on site.

373
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,320
So, it's fair enough
coming from them.

374
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,520
That's not good. I'd be...

375
00:14:06,560 --> 00:14:09,240
Like if this was my licensing
or yours, I'd be...

376
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,800
Oh, mate, I'm pissed off about it.

377
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,480
But ripping their heads off
ain't going to do much good to me.

378
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,800
SCOTT: So, it's 11am on Friday,
the boys are left high and dry

379
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,080
with no-one to waterproof
their laundry.

00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:24,040
MAN: What do we do, boys?

381
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,080
OMAR: We've got to finish off
the hallways.

382
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,840
We'll have to figure this out
as we go.

383
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:30,400
There is no Plan C.

384
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:32,800
All the boys are getting
all the hallway stuff done.

385
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,440
But you can't move forward
in the mudroom or laundry

386
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:36,960
without waterproofing.

387
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,120
So, there's literally only one plan,

388
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,960
and the plan is find someone
that can actually do it.

390

we've got Freedom
that need to get in there today.

392
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:47,720
OZ: That's the problem.

393
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:49,600
DAN: So, we just need
to waterproof for now.

394
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,960

a waterproofer from any other house?

397
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:59,000
Anyone who can waterproof.
Right now, just ask.

398
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,120
No need to ask, Dan,
let's just ask.

399
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:02,840
OZ: Pressure was up,
the stress was there.

400
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,200
We wanted people to push, honestly.

405
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,360
that the Cursio brothers
are not an option.

Oh, mate. I wouldn't go that far.

and Rachel's tile choice...

410
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,240
I can't believe you chose tiles
this small.

for at least the rest of the day.

I can't believe
they're so small, man.

414
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:36,000
I really can't believe that.

in all spaces.

we've broken through

of Scotty's house.

of my hallway,

to come and do their waterproofing.

in House Five.

518
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,520
And his frustration
with the holdups

519
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,880
is, well, reaching boiling point.

520
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:29,640
BRYCE: By the time
that's all waterproofed,

521
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:31,520
by the time it's dried up,
by the time we can get in there,

522
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:32,560
the day's gone.

if you don't get it done,

524

525

BRYCE: Yeah, I know.

526
00:19:36,360 --> 00:19:37,960
But, (BLEEP), it's going
to hit the fan, isn't it?

527
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,800
The expectation is that,
we're going to do it.

528
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,120
However, I don't honestly know
how we're going to do it.

See all that?

530

That's all your joinery.
There's a lot.

531
00:19:47,360 --> 00:19:50,040
So, that's all got to be carried
into there.

532
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,080
There's a full day's work in there.

533
00:19:52,120 --> 00:19:54,880
I can't do a full day's work
in two hours. Right?

534
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,520
I've got guys who already got jobs
booked in for tomorrow.

535
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:02,200
I don't have availability
to just hang around,

536

they've got to get things ready.

But that's the realistic,

546

to have to happen.

547

685
00:25:05,860 --> 00:25:07,980
for just 7,500.

686
00:25:08,020 --> 00:25:11,020
Well, less than 50% of retail price.

687
00:25:11,060 --> 00:25:13,780
And that's a Block rulebreaker.

688
00:25:13,820 --> 00:25:18,300
So, these guys requested
a full audit of everybody.

689
00:25:18,340 --> 00:25:20,260
I've been working day and night.

690
00:25:20,300 --> 00:25:21,340
(LAUGHS)

691
00:25:21,380 --> 00:25:23,700
It's been cutting into my pub time,
I'm filthy.

692
00:25:23,740 --> 00:25:24,780
(LAUGHS) I bet you are.

693
00:25:24,820 --> 00:25:26,380
Yes, and have you come up
with anything?

694
00:25:26,420 --> 00:25:29,100
Well, you know what,
we're about halfway through,

695
00:25:29,140 --> 00:25:31,700
there's only been
a few discrepancies.

696
00:25:31,740 --> 00:25:34,820
But there's a couple of maybe
personal purchases...

697
00:25:34,860 --> 00:25:36,820
Oh. (LAUGHS)
..out of my money.

698
00:25:36,860 --> 00:25:38,260
Really? Like what?

699
00:25:38,300 --> 00:25:40,780
From these guys, actually.

700
00:25:40,820 --> 00:25:42,220
Really?
Yeah.

701
00:25:42,980 --> 00:25:44,460
SHELLEY: What have you been buying?

702
00:25:44,500 --> 00:25:48,260
I'm sure it's a misdemeanour,
I'm sure it's an oversight.

703
00:25:48,300 --> 00:25:49,340
What is it?

704
00:25:49,380 --> 00:25:52,140
Oh, it's just a couple of things,
which I shouldn't mention.

705
00:25:52,180 --> 00:25:55,260
They're about 50 bucks
and they're in a small box

706
00:25:55,300 --> 00:25:56,540
that go in your top pocket.

707
00:25:56,580 --> 00:25:58,380
Oh, that was one time. No.

708
00:25:58,420 --> 00:25:59,580
Oh!

709
00:25:59,620 --> 00:26:02,260
No, it's my ciggies,
and it was one time,

710
00:26:02,300 --> 00:26:04,460
and I didn't have my purse on me.

711
00:26:04,500 --> 00:26:05,740
I went to the servo to fill up
the air...

712
00:26:05,780 --> 00:26:07,940
That's what they all say.
(OVERLAPPING CHATTER)

Is that how much a pack
of cigarettes is?

714
00:26:09,940 --> 00:26:11,100
SCOTT: I've no idea. I'm guessing.

715
00:26:11,140 --> 00:26:12,220
SHELLEY: Ask your wife.

716
00:26:12,260 --> 00:26:13,420
(LAUGHTER)
Far out.

717
00:26:13,980 --> 00:26:15,220
Guilty as charged, ma'am.

718
00:26:16,220 --> 00:26:18,060
There's no objection your honour
from here.

719
00:26:18,100 --> 00:26:19,500
I own it, I did it.

00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:31,240
SCOTT: Welcome back to The Block.

725
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:32,600
Over in House Two,

726
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:33,640
Rachel and Ryan

727
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:37,400
are working across a total
of 71 square metres this week.

728
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:39,400
And their laundry,
which is positioned here,

729
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,480
Ryan and Rachael will have storage
for days,

730
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,680
double seat and a generous-sized
folding table,

731
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:46,800
complete with views
of the Macedon Ranges.

732
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,040
Next door to their mudroom,
that will include a drying cabinet,

733
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:51,160
timber bench seat,

734
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,760
and some functional
brown tiled floor.

735
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:58,080
And in the entrance breezeway,
they're hoping to win over the judges

736
00:26:58,120 --> 00:27:00,840
with a large scale artwork,
feature pendant light,

737
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:02,920
and Blackbutt timber floors.

738
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:06,760
How did you ever imagine

739
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,880
these two spaces
were going to fit together?

740
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:10,560
It's crazy, isn't it?

741
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:12,800
Isn't it all coming together?
Yeah. It looks amazing.

742
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:14,240
SCOTT: Look at that view.
That's unreal.

743
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:15,400
Yes.
Unbelievable.

744
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:16,480
I'll tell you what,

745
00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:20,240
last week and this week,
I'm feeling really, really good,

746
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,000
about the transition, how it's--
Yeah.

747
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:23,320
The connection.
The connection.

748
00:27:23,360 --> 00:27:25,160
It's impossible to tell.
Where's Rachael?

749
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:26,720
Mate, Rach isn't feeling too good.

750
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,080
We were up late painting last night,
and she took herself to bed,

751
00:27:30,120 --> 00:27:31,640
and she woke up
even worse this morning.

752
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:32,920
SCOTT: The flu?
SHELLEY: Oh, no.

753
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:34,520
I think so. I think she's come down
with the flu.

754
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:35,560
She just needs to rest,

755
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:37,000
and we'll see how she goes
this afternoon.

756
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,080
Yeah, right, because she's got
a lot of painting to do tonight.

757
00:27:39,120 --> 00:27:40,200
We've got a lot of painting to do.

758
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:41,480
Oh, my goodness.

759
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:42,760
We made a start last night...
Yeah.

760
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:43,920
..we felt like we needed to.
Yeah.

761
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,200
So, we painted the other hallway
down the road.

762
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:47,400
Down the road? (LAUGHS)

763
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:48,920
It feels like it, doesn't it? Yeah.

764
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:50,360
Down the other end.

765
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,000
I couldn't be any happier
with this house.

766
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:53,040
Yeah, it's a ripper.

767
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,240
The win's given you a huge lift,
hasn't it?

768
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:56,920
Like, you are buzzing this morning.

769
00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:00,680
I am. I'm buzzing, and, like I said,
this whole foyer entrance,

770
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:02,160
I couldn't be any happier...
Yeah.

771
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,000
..walking through the front door

772
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,080
and feeling like you've just
walked into a grand house.

773
00:28:06,120 --> 00:28:07,120
Yep.

774
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,360
RYAN: It's the whole transition
of it all coming together.

775
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,040
This is what really excites me.

776
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:13,640
It's exciting Rach.

777
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,680
You know, I feel like we're actually
in a really good position this week.

778
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,800
Like, there is a lot to do
to finish.

779
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:20,720
You know, our tiles are only
just going down now

780
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:21,920
in our laundry and mud,

781
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:23,880
that's going to take up
the rest of the day.

782
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:25,160
But it's the excitement of,

783
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:26,880
What's this going to look
like in four weeks time?

784
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:28,640
So, it's really,
sort of motivating me

785
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:29,760
to finish it.

786
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:33,840
SCOTT (NARRATING): Alrighty, Shell,

787
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,440
time for another muddy trek
up the hill to House Three,

788
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:40,000
where for once,
with just 51 square metres complete,

789
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:43,040
Sharon and Ankur
have a lighter load this week.

790
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:45,920
They're planning
a glamorous laundry/mudroom,

791
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:47,920
a rockin'-inspired floor tiles,

792
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:52,000
a generous bed seat,
and a very special custom dog bath.

793
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,480
And in this entrance hallway,
they're wanting to inject some drama,

794
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:58,160
by using pressed metal mouldings
painted charcoal.

795
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,320
Well, would you look at this!

796
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:04,400
Howdy. I've haven't seen this before.

797
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:05,920
I've never seen this before.

798
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:09,400
Pressed metal on the chair rail.

799
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,120
That's very, very interesting.

800
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:12,840
I've never seen it in all my years.

801
00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:14,280
Goes with the era of the house,

802
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,760
and we thought it would give it
the grand hallway

803
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:17,880
that this house deserves.

804
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:19,200
It's really interesting.
Absolutely.

805
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:20,920
Did you fold that there
or is that a joint?

806
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:22,520
ANKUR: Nah, it's folded.
SHARON: It's folded.

807
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:24,520
It's folded?
And how did you get that fold in?

808
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:26,520
Mr Liam.
Our builder, Liam did it.

809
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:28,800
What, he got some two bits of timber,
and he turned it up,

810
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,000
and put in with clamps or something.

811
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,280
Or it was a knocky, knocky thing.

812
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:34,360
Was it?
Yeah.

813
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,440
One of those. I've got one
of those tools at home too.

814
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:37,840
It's called 'bossing down'.
Yeah.

815
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:38,880
Bossing down?

816
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:39,960
Boston.

817
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:41,000
That's a very good job.

818
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:42,280
Yeah, it is. It's beautiful.

819
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:43,760
And then you're painting it,
obviously.

820
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:44,800
Yeah.

821
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:46,520
What colour are going?
Charcoal-y colour.

822
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,040
Ooh.
Yeah.

823
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:50,080
We got some feedback last week
from the judges

824
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,520
about wanting to put charcoal
into the living and dining area,

825
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,480
and to make it more cozy
because it was too white.

826
00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:57,640
We are going to make that change.

827
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,400
And so, the flow on from here,
is that we do it up to 1,200.

828
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:01,480
Beautiful.

829
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:02,520
Yeah.
Yeah.

830
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,960
And you can see now,
with all the old part of the home,

831
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:06,880
and that space down there
coming together,

832
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:08,960
this is a really dramatic house.

833
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:10,120
It is.

834
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:11,960
So, I thought the judges
didn't like that, initially.

835
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,400
But then last week, they were like,
"Where's the drama?"

836
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,080
So, I'm trying to give...
Yeah.

837
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:17,840
We're trying to give more drama.
Give it some drama.

838
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:19,760
So, how many hallways
have you got in this house?

839
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,000
There's only this one.
Just this one.

840
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:22,360
Beautiful.
SHARON AND ANKUR: Yeah!

841
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:23,400
Just one!

842
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:24,840
For the first time,
I feels like, you know,

843
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:26,040
we're in with a chance.

844
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:27,560
You might be in with a chance.
Yeah.

845
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:29,920
So, this could be it.
This could be the one.

846
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:31,320
We need the money so bad.
Mate--

847
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:32,400
SCOTT: You do.
You know we do.

848
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:33,560
Yeah, you know. So...

849
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:35,600
So, you know how your budget is.

850
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:37,320
I certainly know
how your budget is.

851
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:38,360
Ridiculous.

852
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,360
And you're getting worse and worse
each week, right?

853
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:41,560
Because you're overspending.

854

to be there,

867

00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:06,240
Good. Yeah, that's good.
..the cost to the plasterers.

869
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:07,280
Too much.

And on that note,
do you guys know any plasterers?

871
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:10,760

broken into three sections,

1026
00:36:10,940 --> 00:36:13,460
starting with the entrance
in the old part of the house,

1027
00:36:13,500 --> 00:36:17,540
where they'll feature wainscoting
and traditional-styled wall lights.

a transition from the old to the new,

have two hallways,

1092
00:38:13,780 --> 00:38:16,180
including this one
in the original house,

1093
00:38:16,220 --> 00:38:18,100
where they're going
for a traditional feel,

1094
00:38:18,140 --> 00:38:19,820
with timber panelling, fretwork,

1095
00:38:19,860 --> 00:38:22,500
and a couple of classic-style
pendants.

1096
00:38:23,540 --> 00:38:24,820
In the pavilion, however,

1097
00:38:24,860 --> 00:38:27,860
their hallway will be modern,
modern, modern,

1098
00:38:27,900 --> 00:38:31,020
with a polished concrete floor,
Venetian plaster on the walls,

1099

and timber panels on the ceiling.

And the laundry/mudroom,
if it ever gets waterproofed,

1101

will feature a dog bath,

1102
00:38:38,220 --> 00:38:40,340

I think the biggest issue
we have at the moment,

1109
00:38:57,820 --> 00:38:59,500
we just need someone to waterproof,

1110
00:38:59,540 --> 00:39:02,220
so Bryce and the team from Freedom
can just...

1111
00:39:02,260 --> 00:39:03,340
Just to install.

1112

..just to install their laundry,

it's a long weekend,

1121
00:39:18,820 --> 00:39:21,140
The most people who own caravans
and go camping?

1122
00:39:21,180 --> 00:39:22,460

you've got four weeks, right?

You're not going
to have a win this week,

1130

that's probably the case,
let's be honest about that.

1131
00:39:40,100 --> 00:39:42,220
But you got four weeks
to finish that for your buyer.

1132
00:39:42,260 --> 00:39:43,340
Yep, exactly right.

We're going to have a crack
for sure,

We also have hope in God,
God is on our side.

1143

We just got to keep trusting God
and have each other's back,

1144

00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:13,800
all the joineries still sitting
out on the slab there.

1360
00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:16,760
It will take us an hour
to try and unpack all that...

1361
00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:19,280
walk it through all that mud
and everything

1362
00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:20,560

We don't want you guys to feel bad
or anything.

1364

Well, we do. That's the problem.

1365
00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:28,240
I know, because you care so much
and youse all put in so much,

1366
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:31,440
but it's out of your control,
unfortunately.

How are you?

1374
00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:49,320
Good, mate.

1375
00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:51,800
Unfortunately, I'm the bearer
of bad news.

1376
00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:54,320
Freedom can't do your cabinetry.

1377
00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:55,760
Yeah.
Of course that was going to happen.

1378
00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:56,880
Yeah.

they can't get guys booked in
for tomorrow.

1381
00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:02,760
Dan comes over and tells us,

1382
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:05,480
"Sorry, guys, but Bryce
has pulled the pin.

1383
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:07,880
He's no longer installing
your cabinetry".

1384
00:48:10,440 --> 00:48:12,280
I know you guys won't give up,

1385
00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:15,160
and I want us to come up with a way
of how we can get all of that

1386
00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:16,200
into there.

1387
00:48:16,240 --> 00:48:17,760

1388
00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:19,360

1389
00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:22,680
I don't if Dan and his team
can try and...

1390
00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:26,480
Nah, they've still got
a lot of work to do.

1391
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:28,240

00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:31,440
to our mudroom and laundry.

00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:33,000
How frustrating is that?

1394
00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:36,240
Mate, if you need to do something.

1395
00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:37,600
Yeah, we'll jump
on it straight away.

1396
00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:39,040
OK.

Gary and Catherine
from Big Tree Gin Distillery.

1432
00:50:01,300 --> 00:50:03,940
Now, it's a really interesting story
about this,

1433
00:50:03,980 --> 00:50:06,140
because it really relates
to all of you guys.

1434
00:50:06,180 --> 00:50:09,740
Because Gary had a bit
of a health scare in 2004, 5, 6

00:50:09,780 --> 00:50:11,100
around that time.

to have a tree change.

and they came up here to Woodend,
and bought 80 acres.

to participate in this,

1458
00:50:55,660 --> 00:50:56,980
That will give you a basic gin,

1459
00:50:57,020 --> 00:51:00,780
but the botanicals that you put in
will make it a great gin.

1460
00:51:00,820 --> 00:51:02,500

to make a gin, and win $2,000.

So, what we can add to it?

1474
00:51:35,780 --> 00:51:36,780
So, you make that,

1475
00:51:36,820 --> 00:51:38,540
but you add that to it
to get your own flavour.

1476
00:51:38,580 --> 00:51:39,860
Ooh, lemongrass. Done.

1477
00:51:39,900 --> 00:51:42,140
I'm a straight alcohol
kind of person.

1478
00:51:42,180 --> 00:51:43,860
I like straight vodka,
straight tequila.

1479
00:51:43,900 --> 00:51:46,660
So, let's just throw a little splash
of something in there.

1480
00:51:46,700 --> 00:51:49,260
Lemongrass.

We kept a very full back

1485
00:51:58,620 --> 00:52:00,500
we've just put a little bit
of lemongrass.

1486
00:52:00,540 --> 00:52:04,660
Because sometimes, all you need
is a little pinch of something.

1487
00:52:05,620 --> 00:52:09,020
CATHERINE: So, what you want to do,
is you want to pop open all the tops

1488
00:52:09,060 --> 00:52:10,500
and give it a good smell.

1489
00:52:10,540 --> 00:52:11,820
I guess it actually works out,

1490
00:52:11,860 --> 00:52:15,780
it's sort of something that you would
like to have in a dessert.

1491
00:52:16,620 --> 00:52:17,820
So, don't feel scared.

1492
00:52:17,860 --> 00:52:20,860
I got some lemongrass,
some cinnamon pods,

1493
00:52:20,900 --> 00:52:23,700
and this star "ani-see", is it?

1494
00:52:23,740 --> 00:52:24,820

1502
00:52:39,100 --> 00:52:40,340
I called my gin, 'Jen Gin'.

(LAUGHS)

1504
00:52:42,100 --> 00:52:44,980
We were going to call it 'Russell',
because Dylan loves Russell Coight.

1505
00:52:45,020 --> 00:52:48,620
But what if we win
and our gin's called "Russell".

1506
00:52:48,660 --> 00:52:49,900
You can't have that.

1507
00:52:49,940 --> 00:52:51,020
And taste it.

So, I don't know
if I like a fruity gin.

1512
00:52:58,460 --> 00:53:00,380
I want to go more earthy.
Yeah.

1513
00:53:00,420 --> 00:53:01,460
If you want to do earthy,

1514
00:53:01,500 --> 00:53:03,420
put something like Angelica root
in it.

1515
00:53:03,460 --> 00:53:05,380
But the main thing's
not to go too hard

1516
00:53:05,420 --> 00:53:06,420
with these botanicals,

1517
00:53:06,460 --> 00:53:07,940
because they can
really overpower it.

1518
00:53:07,980 --> 00:53:09,620
Oh, yeah, I can see that.

1519
00:53:09,660 --> 00:53:11,260
So, I'm going to do
a tiny little bit.

SARAH-JANE: Oh, you're losing some.

1528
00:53:35,860 --> 00:53:37,740
One hand.

1529
00:53:37,780 --> 00:53:39,900
ANKUR: I'm actually thinking
of Asian vibes.

1530
00:53:39,940 --> 00:53:43,220
How good would it be to have a nice,
like, Asiany-style gin

1531
00:53:43,260 --> 00:53:44,860
that goes perfectly with Asian food?

1532
00:53:44,900 --> 00:53:47,340
So, like, lemongrass,
bit of citrus.

1533
00:53:47,380 --> 00:53:49,060
Like, fennel, ginger.

1534
00:53:49,100 --> 00:53:50,980
Anks cooks really good Asian food.

1535
00:53:51,020 --> 00:53:53,820
So, I'm hoping he's going to cool
a really good gin too.

1536
00:53:54,380 --> 00:53:57,260
SCOTT: For Ank's and Sharon's
"Asian Sensation",

1537
00:53:57,300 --> 00:53:59,860
they're adding a concoction
of lemongrass, ginger,

1538
00:53:59,900 --> 00:54:01,260
fennel, and some citrus.

1539
00:54:02,740 --> 00:54:03,900
What's it smell like, Tom?

1540
00:54:03,940 --> 00:54:06,660
It smells like $2,000 to me.

1541
00:54:06,700 --> 00:54:09,420
(LAUGHS)

1542
00:54:09,460 --> 00:54:11,420
This is going to be
the best gin on The Block.

1543
00:54:11,460 --> 00:54:13,100
I think it's going to be
the best gin.

1544
00:54:13,140 --> 00:54:15,820
I think it's actually going
to be better than their gin.

1545
00:54:18,140 --> 00:54:19,140
PRODUCER: What'd you use?

1546
00:54:19,180 --> 00:54:20,540
Uh..
A little bit of lemongrass.

1547
00:54:20,580 --> 00:54:21,860
A little bit of lemongrass.
Cinnamon.

1548
00:54:21,900 --> 00:54:23,420
A little bit of cinnamon.

1549
00:54:23,460 --> 00:54:25,700
Cloves.

1550
00:54:26,420 --> 00:54:27,500
Sounds pretty crap.

1551
00:54:27,540 --> 00:54:29,180
Yeah, it does, now,
that we're saying it out aloud.

1552
00:54:29,220 --> 00:54:30,220
Yeah, agreed.

1553
00:54:30,260 --> 00:54:31,860
Let's brew this bad boy.

1554
00:54:31,900 --> 00:54:33,140
Yeah.

1555
00:54:33,180 --> 00:54:34,300
Let's make it rain.

1556
00:54:35,060 --> 00:54:36,380
Choose a still, lift up the lid,

1557
00:54:36,420 --> 00:54:38,060
and make sure that nobody else
has got it.

1558
00:54:38,100 --> 00:54:40,580
We put it in a distiller, and yeah,
wait and see what happens.

('(BABY I'VE GOT YOU) ON MY MIND'
BY POWDERFINGER PLAYING)

1560
00:54:42,620 --> 00:54:44,540
SCOTT: So, it's into the distiller
to purify.

1561
00:54:46,780 --> 00:54:48,500
A quick blind taste test...

1562
00:54:49,980 --> 00:54:51,260
Very interesting.

1563
00:54:52,140 --> 00:54:54,780
..a conference away
from prying ears,

1564
00:54:54,820 --> 00:54:55,980
and we're ready to announce

1565
00:54:56,020 --> 00:54:58,060
the winner of tonight's
great gin challenge.

1566
00:54:59,860 --> 00:55:00,860
Ladies and gentlemen,

1567
00:55:00,900 --> 00:55:05,740
please thank Catherine and Gary
from the Big Tree Gin Distillery

1568
00:55:05,780 --> 00:55:07,100
for coming out and helping us today.

1569
00:55:07,140 --> 00:55:09,420
(CHEERING)

1570
00:55:10,500 --> 00:55:14,260
Now, you have tasted all the gins,
and you have come up with a winner.

1571
00:55:14,300 --> 00:55:16,820
The reason is...

1572
00:55:16,860 --> 00:55:19,060
They're all good.
They were all fantastic.

1573
00:55:19,100 --> 00:55:20,500
But one of them in particular,

1574
00:55:20,540 --> 00:55:23,060
they hadn't overpowered
with the botanicals.

1575
00:55:23,100 --> 00:55:24,220
Right. OK.

1576
00:55:24,260 --> 00:55:30,540
And the winner of $2,000
from my back pocket is, it's...

1577
00:55:31,340 --> 00:55:32,540
'Gin Jen'.

1578
00:55:32,580 --> 00:55:35,580

(BOTH CHEERING)

1580
00:55:40,380 --> 00:55:42,020
Gin Jen! Woo!

1581
00:55:42,060 --> 00:55:43,100
That's sick.

1582
00:55:43,140 --> 00:55:44,460
It's actually so good.

1583
00:55:44,500 --> 00:55:45,660
It's the nicest bottle.

1584
00:55:45,700 --> 00:55:46,940
I think we'll open
our own distillery

1585
00:55:46,980 --> 00:55:47,980
when we get home.

1586
00:55:48,020 --> 00:55:51,740
Now, you've run the running race
and the gin race.

um, well done. Good work.

OMAR: Well done, guys.

1591
00:56:02,260 --> 00:56:03,740
Alright you lot, out of here.

1592
00:56:03,780 --> 00:56:06,300
SCOTT (NARRATING): I have
some beauty sleep to catch up on,

1593
00:56:06,340 --> 00:56:09,740
and you have, well,
a Hellway-sized week of painting.

1594

('BLINDING LIGHTS'
BY THE WEEKND PLAYING)

1595
00:56:18,340 --> 00:56:20,740
I actually thought
we were in Hell Week Eight,

1596
00:56:20,780 --> 00:56:22,980
because I thought
we had lots of Hell Weeks.

1597
00:56:25,980 --> 00:56:28,260
PRODUCER: Did you go back
and do any work after Scotty's?

1598
00:56:29,340 --> 00:56:30,340
We couldn't.

1599
00:56:30,380 --> 00:56:31,540
You couldn't do any painting--

1600
00:56:31,580 --> 00:56:33,420
We couldn't do no painting,
no nothing,

1601
00:56:33,460 --> 00:56:35,420
because they were still plastering,

1602
00:56:35,460 --> 00:56:37,420
and they were coming
Saturday morning to sand.

1603
00:56:38,260 --> 00:56:40,060
So, we couldn't.
We couldn't do anything.

1604
00:56:40,900 --> 00:56:42,940
PRODUCER: At this stage,
other people are starting to look

1605
00:56:42,980 --> 00:56:44,420
at the shape of their home
come together.

1606
00:56:44,460 --> 00:56:46,380
But you're not really
in that position, really, are you?

1607
00:56:46,420 --> 00:56:50,500
Yeah, everybody is literally seeing
their beautiful hallways,

1608
00:56:50,540 --> 00:56:53,820
breezeway, um, mudroom,
laundry, coming together.

1609
00:56:54,500 --> 00:56:57,100
But with us,
we barely have sheets on the wall.

1610
00:56:58,100 --> 00:57:00,340
Not even sanded for us
to even put one coat on.

1611

you're going to wanna see this.

You're gone.

more than you guys.

No, hang on mate.

on a scale never seen before.
