Returning: The Block

Reality renovation at The Gatwick on Nine in early August.

Nine has confirmed Logie-winning The Block will return for its 14th season at The Gatwick, St. Kilda, in early August.

Scott Cam returns as host joined by Shelley Craft,  judges Neale Whitaker, Shaynna Blaze, Darren Palmer, foremen Keith Schleiger and  Dan Reilly.

There are 5 new couples from 5 states competing to win.

Over 11 gruelling weeks, and with a budget of $220,000, the new Blockheads will totally transform five luxury apartment spaces in the notorious Gatwick building located in beachside St Kilda in Melbourne.

They’re all competing for the chance to walk away with $100,000 prizemoney and any profit made when their apartments go under the hammer at a live public auction later this year.

Moving into The Gatwick are the five eager teams chosen from a record-breaking 45,000 entries:

Bianca (36) and Carla (35), Australian champion netballers from Melbourne, VIC
Kerrie (49) and Spence (47), married couple from the Barossa Valley, SA
Sara (31) and Hayden (45), newlywed parents from The Shire, NSW
Hans (37) and Courtney (33), the pilot and his first-class flight attendant partner from Perth, WA
Norm (40) and Jess (33), engaged parents from the Sunshine Coast, QLD

There’s no time to settle in. In the first 48 hours, the teams will be tasked with creating a kids’ bedroom from start to finish. The winner of this challenge will have first choice to pick from either three apartments within the old, heritage part of the building, or two grand penthouses nestled on the roof.

It won’t be an easy choice. The two impressive rooftop properties don’t exist yet – not even a single wall, and one of the lower apartments has a safe with hidden booty inside.

Sunday, August 5, at 7.00pm on Nine.

      1. Ninja warrior will have a few more episodes during August on 9. After The block finishes, I’d guess that the Ninja warrior will air @ 8:05pm Sunday/8:40pm Monday
