Four new couples from around Australia are about to embark upon the greatest challenge of their lives. Their excitement quickly turns to shock as they enter their apartments and try to come to terms with the enormity of the project. The reality is far worse than any of them have ever imagined.

The couples are searching for the best tradesmen at the right prices... all except the Melbourne couple who think they have an ace up their sleeve. And while most contestants are busy making deals with tradesmen, one couple is working on a very different type of deal.

Dani and Monique face their worst nightmare when a newspaper article discloses information about Dani's past. He and Monique are prepared to leave The Block if the other couples want them to go. Lies and back-stabbing are rife asspeculation mounts about whether one of the couples is playing by the rules.

The couples are devastated when they read in the paper that Dani & Monique have left The Block. And as tension reaches an all-time high within one of the couples, another contestant is ready to walk out.

Living amongst the filth and rubble is becoming unbearable as the contestants struggle to maintain their presentation at work. The couples are working out who they do and don't want to be friends with. And amusement turns to horror when a newspaper asks for the public to come forward with information about our contestants' lives outside The Block.

Meet the new couple, Jamie & Andrew who are stunned to learn they have just one week to complete a room.
