Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Block auction is here. It's happening on Sunday. It's
seven oh block on Channel nine and Scottie cam is
joining us. Hello, Scott, well you too.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Here it is again. Gosh, what a what.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
A season it's been. What a it has been a season.
There's been things that have never happened before. We lost
a team early, and then we had a we had
a block maps a crossover, but no one expected. It's
been bizarre. That's okay, No, that's okay. A couple of
(00:37):
times I was watching and I was thinking, oh, I
feel awkward. I feel like I shouldn't be listening to this.
But anyway, you know what's what's a shame is Carli
and Brad's house is my favorite. I am that person
that likes all that black. I love their house. I
love it. I love it. No, I don't color, that's mine.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Lisa's putting a bid in mate now, Maks my color.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
And I even like the first bathroom. So there you go.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
You're more tishir at I at is.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
I don't mind admitting it.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
You picked it in one and look at I would say,
look at Danny because Lisa's getting the big bit in early.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
But Anyway, Look, it's been a roller coaster, let's say that. Yeah,
a lot of first has.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Been a lot of first, a lot of drama, including
the chance to get five fifty thousand dollars off the
reserve price by doing the clubhouse, which Mimi and Christian
with a whole lot of help from Alissa and Lessandra
did just this week.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
So that's well, I'm a huge that's exactly right, huge
And they got fifty grund off their reserve, which the
houses are very similar, so that's going to be a
big advantage come option day, which is only twenty four
hours away. Yes, so it's you know, I think that you, right,
at least from Sandra did a fantastic job and Christian
(02:06):
on that. Yeah, I'm not saying anything. I'm just so
that that was probably the case right throughout the series unfortunately,
and that you know, the block's really hard work. You've
got there's a lot of pressure and there's a lot
(02:27):
of you know, you've got to really keep your a
game going for three months, so it is tough to
get through. But but you know, I think on auction
day it's going to be anybody's game because it doesn't
matter that what's happened throughout the three months. They're all
terrific homes, and then all of a sudden a dark
horse could come out of the clouds and win.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
It just depends who's around at the time and how
they feeling about. And Scott, we can't predict this like
a like a US election, You can't predict it before
the event. What the hell is going to happen this
year after the ink consistency of last two or three seasons.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
Yeah, I know, mate, And you know, we're not sure
who's going to be there on the day. We're not
sure who's going to like White House. We've got absolutely
no control over the whole day. And that's the thing
about our most important episode of three months of filming
and hard work, that we just turn up on the
day and we just sit there and hope for the best.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
What's your gut telling you about the auction? Who do
you see coming out on top?
Speaker 3 (03:29):
Trump? I think it's Trump. I think he's good.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I think I think it's grump.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Got me House too? Is going to read to us
House it's beautiful. The boys have got a boat, yes,
Christian me and have got two stories. Kylie's got a
Black House.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Yeah, and I love it.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Yeah. And I like the girl's secret entrance on the side.
So there's something about every house that's got something going
for it, and that's think about the block. Somebody might
get an emotional connection to one house and not the other. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
I must say thank goodness for the boys this season
because they they I think they've been the lightness that
has been required during this season during the roller coaster.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
Yeah, and you know what, You're right, the boys took
everything on the chin as you should in life, copped
it on the chin, accepted the criticism or the you know,
the feedback. Yeah, and they you know, they didn't take
anything to heart. They just moved on.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Yeah, they've been fabulous. I must ask, is there any
word on what's happening with Kylie and Brad per auction day?
Will they be there? Can you say anything? Do you know?
Speaker 2 (04:47):
Are they still at Flemington? You know what's going on?
Speaker 3 (04:49):
Well, you know the thing is that they're not great
communicators with us. They don't like talking to us. Yeah. Publicist. Yeah,
my very good friend Christabel, she is the publicist and
she finds a difficult communicating with them. So to be honest,
we're not too sure, okay.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
And do you get any vibe or word or rumor
about who's going to be milling around, be it buyers,
be it buyers agents, some crazy big numbers or early bids? Mate,
do you know who's going to be there?
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Yeah? Yeah, there's no early bids, but there's yes, we
know who's turning up. We've got each house has got
some definite buyers according to their real estate agents. The
reserve prices are out and the optional has done. Yes.
But the thing about that that is that they decide
(05:42):
and not because I don't know what the reserve price is. Yeah,
because it's a very tightly held secret. So they have
decided not to tell us what the reserve prices is.
I may have decided not to tell each other.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Yeah, okay, so I'm not sure what that is.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
All right, Well, all will be revealed on Sunday night.
We invest three months to get to this night, and
I'm very excited. And I have to say, Scott, congratulations,
it's been rating it's you know what off again this
year the block. It's been an absolute juggernaut. Looking back
over the ratings as I was doing yesterday. So congratulations,
(06:21):
and I believe next year might be the gorgeous Dales
for already.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
Well, the thing is that it's not a secret anymore
because I've got sixty or seventy blokes. Yeah, so I
think does with his.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
On doors all right, Well, best of like tomorrow mate,
with herding those cats. You're the block shepherd.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
