Is The Block On Tonight? No — Thursday 24 September, and Monday's Reveal Now Faces MKR
Quick answer:
- No Block tonight, Thursday 24 September. Nine has RBT at 7.30pm, and the only Block on the channel today was the noon repeat of Wednesday's episode.
- No Block on Sunday either: the Wallabies v Springboks Test takes Nine's 7.00pm, while Seven runs The Voice Grand Finale at the same time.
- The Rumpus and Laundry Reveal lands Monday 28 September at 7.30pm, head to head with the new season of My Kitchen Rules on Seven.
Is The Block on tonight?
No. Thursday isn't a Block night this season, and Nine's Sydney guide has A Current Affair at 7.00pm, RBT at 7.30pm and a Chevy Chase documentary from 8.32pm. Seven is doing a triple Home and Away from 7.00pm, then The Front Bar at 8.30pm.
If you missed Wednesday's episode 32, Nine re-ran it at noon today and it's on 9Now. That was the last build night of Rumpus and Laundry Week.
When is The Block back on?
Monday 28 September at 7.30pm on Nine and 9Now, with episode 33, the Rumpus and Laundry Reveal. It's filed at 90 minutes, so it runs to about 9.00pm, and $10,000 goes to the best pair of rooms.
Normally the reveal would be on Sunday. We covered why the Sunday slot went to rugby earlier in the week, and nothing in today's guides has changed that.
| Date | AEST | Channel | What's on |
|---|---|---|---|
| Thu 24 Sep | 7.30pm | Nine | RBT — no Block |
| Fri 25 – Sat 26 Sep | — | — | Nothing new from The Block or The Voice |
| Sun 27 Sep | 7.00pm | Nine / 9Now | Test Rugby: Wallabies v Springboks (kick-off 7.45pm) |
| Sun 27 Sep | 7.00pm | Seven / 7plus | The Voice Australia: Grand Finale (to about 9.05pm) |
| Mon 28 Sep | 7.30pm | Nine / 9Now | The Block, ep 33: Rumpus and Laundry Reveal (90 min) |
| Mon 28 Sep | 7.30pm | Seven / 7plus | My Kitchen Rules, season premiere (105 min) |
| Tue 29 Sep – Thu 1 Oct | 7.30pm | Nine / 9Now | The Block: Kids Room and Re-Do Room Week |
Sydney clock times. Adelaide and Darwin run 30 minutes behind; Nine and Seven schedule Perth locally.
What's up against Monday's reveal?
My Kitchen Rules. Seven has confirmed the new season starts at 7.30pm on Monday 28 September, with Manu Feildel and Colin Fassnidge judging and $100,000 for the winners. The guide has the opener at 105 minutes, starting in Queensland with a mum-and-daughter team.
By our arithmetic the two shows overlap for the full 90 minutes of the reveal, and MKR keeps going until about 9.15pm. 10 adds a third new show at 7.30pm, Shaun Micallef's Parents' Evening. If you want both big ones, 9Now and 7plus each put the episode up after broadcast.
Is The Voice on this Sunday?
Yes, and it's the last episode of the season. The Grand Finale is at 7.00pm on Seven and 7plus, and the guide gives it 125 minutes. Four artists are left: Daisha Auda (Team Kate Miller-Heidke), The 60Four (Team Ronan Keating), Tommy Novak (Team Richard Marx) and Yung Milla (Team Melanie C).
The winner takes $100,000 and a recording and development package. Public voting opened after the semi-final, and our finals guide has how each of them got there.
Who's leading The Block before the reveal?
Adam and Jolene, on 175 by our running count, with Courtney and Sev on 173 and Lisa and Rosco on 160½. Two rooms are judged on Monday, so a two-point lead is nothing.
The tally started from the Kitchen Week scores in our results file, and the week's line-up still stands as published, bar today's detail on the Monday clash.
Is there a Block on Thursday next week?
Yes, which is unusual. Because the reveal slid to Monday, the next build week runs Tuesday 29 September to Thursday 1 October at 7.30pm, and the Kids Room and Re-Do Room Reveal follows on Sunday 4 October at 7.00pm.
That Sunday is also the first day of daylight saving, so Brisbane's clock drops an hour behind Sydney's. Our capital city times page sorts it out, and the Block viewing guide covers 9Now and the noon repeats.
