Block judge\u2019s brutal warning to contestants<\/a><\/p>\n Block price guide revealed as housing market cools<\/a><\/p>\n Rosco\u2019s prospective waterproofer sums up his views on the bathroom deadlines.<\/p>\n The teams reserve most of their disdain for Courtney and Sev\u2019s last place getting room, complete with poorly designed walk-in robe inherited from winners Lisa and Rosco.<\/p>\n \u201cIt would be a really nice place to die,\u201d Adam says, while Chantel describes it as a \u201cbat cave\u201d.<\/p>\n Then it\u2019s on to the pressing work of creating a master ensuite in a week where a public holiday will result in even less working hours.<\/p>\n After presenting the most unfinished bathroom in Block history two weeks ago, Lisa and Rosco are determined not to let it happen again, but they\u2019re not being helped by site managers reversing a decision to let them remove a window and ruling out their plans to micro cement their shower area.<\/p>\n They\u2019re also struggling to find a waterproofer with Dan warning Rosco that if he doesn\u2019t get that particular job done tomorrow he\u2019s not going to finish, again.<\/p>\n So Rosco isn\u2019t exactly in the mood to drive to a hot springs resort for a massage then dinner, but that\u2019s the price of success.<\/p>\n Lisa is the voice of reason on their drive to the resort as Rosco spirals.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s fine. You\u2019re going to make yourself sick. It\u2019s not a life-and-death situation. If we don\u2019t finish after putting in all that effort there\u2019s nothing we can do about it.\u201d<\/p>\n Courtney has a heart episode as worried producers ask if they should call an ambulance.<\/p>\n And Lisa knows about life-and-death situations. In her other life she\u2019s a paramedic, and her skills come in handy this episode.<\/p>\n Courtney reveals she suffers from a condition called SVT which can cause episodes where her heart races to more than 200bpm. While she can usually get it under control herself, this time she needs some help.<\/p>\n \u201cShall we call an ambulance?\u201d a producer asks, but Courtney takes herself off to the bathroom and calls Lisa instead, who calmly talks her through the process of breathing through a straw with her feet up on the wall.<\/p>\n The pair agree that if Courtney can\u2019t fix it within five attempts she\u2019ll call triple-0 but thankfully it only takes three and all is well.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s something I\u2019ve had for many years now. It doesn\u2019t affect my ability to live my life but it can be quite stressful when it happens, especially when you\u2019re not prepared,\u201d Courtney explains.<\/p>\n Sev and Courtney talking about Courtney\u2019s heart condition.<\/p>\n Sev is emotional when talking about the fact Courtney didn\u2019t let her know it was happening.<\/p>\n \u201cCourtney wants to be tough for both of us and she wants to be tough in this environment because getting respect from men sometimes can be hard and I know that you didn\u2019t want to look weak. I know why she didn\u2019t tell me, it\u2019s because she didn\u2019t want to stress me out.\u201d<\/p>\n As Lisa and Rosco enjoy their winners\u2019 night out, the other teams are surprised by a visit from judge Darren Palmer.<\/p>\n Darren Palmer has dinner with the contestants to tell them not to take his Week One advice too literally.<\/p>\n Reading between the lines, it seems someone recognised that the advice he gave the teams in week one about embracing \u201clight, bright and white\u201d and \u201cquiet luxury\u201d was going to result in five beige palaces, so he\u2019s here to let them know they can actually cut loose a little.<\/p>\n Sev and Tayla are particularly chagrined, both claiming they\u2019d have gone in another direction had Darren not been so insistent that they avoid colour and boldness at the outset.<\/p>\n \u201cSome of the imagery he showed us (tonight) referenced what we were going to do originally, but we\u2019ve now gone in a different direction,\u201d Sev says.<\/p>\n MISSED AN EPISODE?
