It’s The Block 2024’s kitchen room reveals for week five, and the Blockheads’ finished spaces were nothing short of stunning.
As the judges noted, each of The Block contestants’ rooms had its own personality. While they were impressed with Maddy and Charlotte, Courtney and Grant, Ricky and Haydn, Brad and Kylie and Mimi and Kristian’s room, as always, they had some negative pointers.
The final scores were so close that there was only half a point difference between the highest scorers—Maddy and Charlotte and Kylie and Brad—before Shaynna Blaze’s scores were shown.
Despite Kylie’s insistence that she didn’t want to play their secret gnome—which gives the team a bonus point—this week, Brad played it anyway and secured their team’s win.
Check out each of the room reveals – as well as the The Block judges’ scores – below.
