The Block Jenna & Josh

Jenna and Josh exuded confidence in their third room, the main bathroom/laundry.

Josh was proud of the stunning Caesar stone benchtops in the laundry area and the Fisher & Paykel combined washer/dryer: "It's a great way to maximise a tight space while providing the best functionality."

In the bathroom they opted for bright and modern fixtures. Jenna's fave was the vanity: "It's got this really cool steel towel rail built into the stand. It sits really well against the wall mounted toilet."

Floor-to-ceiling tiles

Josh just loved the floor covering: "We've got high-quality blue-stone tiles on the floors and they work well contrasting against the floor to ceiling white tiles."

They certainly delivered a high quality bathroom and laundry that they hope will be both a joy to look at and use. Jenna summed it up: "It's modern, it's retro, it's eclectic, it's us."

But what did the judges think?

The judges' critical eyes picked the tapware as the outstanding feature. They also took a shine to the Caesar stone bench tops and the mirror.

Neale voiced an appreciation for the couple's aesthetic: "This pair have shown great consistency of vision. They always seem to be setting their own bar higher."

While John liked their design choices he was less pleased with their execution: "I guess it's because I'm a real estate agent, but I am a stickler for details and finishes. It looks like it needs more paint."

Neale too took a close look at the final presentation and thought it came up wanting: "Yes, it looks like they left in a hurry. Their execution this week has let them down."

The judges' verdict

Design: 7
Execution 5

Will Jenna and Josh cope with being knocked off the top position?

I am a very big fan of "The Block" and of Scotty Cam and have loved all of the previous shows and I really looked forward to this latest episode. However I have to tell you that this new format has really lost my interest and I find it very hard to bother tuning in. The challenge format is simply lame and they remind me more of the sheltered workshop type stuff (no disrespect to the physically or mentally impaired and sheltered workshops intended) that I'm used to seeing (and generally avoiding) on Channel 7. The interest in he previous Block episodes was the renovations themselves and the trials and tribulations of the couples and there efforts, struggles and clashes while working through them. However there seems to be so much of the actual renovation activity missed in this new format and we see so little of what is happening that I really now question just how much the couples have had to do themselves to get through things. Not good channel 9. Rescue it while you can!!
