Why Isn't The Block On Sunday 27 September? The Wallabies Take Nine's 7pm and the Reveal Moves to Monday

Looking for Sunday 4 October? This page covers Sunday 27 September. There's no Block on Sunday 4 October either: Nine has the NRL Grand Final, and the Kids Room and Re-Do Room Reveal is on Monday 5 October at 7.30pm AEDT. Why The Block isn't on Sunday 4 October.

Nine has put The Block's reveal in the 7.00pm Sunday slot every week since August. On 27 September it won't be there.

That reason sits on the same channel. Nine has a Rugby Championship Test that night, and the Rumpus and Laundry Reveal has been pushed to the following evening.

The gist:

• No Block on Nine on Sunday 27 September. The 7.00pm slot goes to the Wallabies v Springboks Test.
• The Rumpus and Laundry Reveal is now Monday 28 September at 7.30pm, a 90-minute episode with $10,000 on it.
• This week's three build nights — Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday at 7.30pm — are untouched.

Why isn't The Block on Sunday 27 September?

Because Nine is carrying live rugby. The Sydney guide has 9News — Sunday at 6.00pm, the Wallabies v Springboks Test from 7.00pm, and post-match coverage at 9.45pm. That takes the whole evening: Nine doesn't get back to regular programming until 9News Late at 10.15pm.

When is the Rumpus and Laundry Reveal?

Monday 28 September, 7.30pm, on Nine and 9Now. The guide has it as episode 33, running 90 minutes, which puts the finish around 9.00pm.

The prize on the night is $10,000 for the best pair of rooms, not the $100,000 that rode on Kitchen Week. The scores still count towards the season tally, which is the part that matters with the auction coming.

Is The Voice on that Sunday?

Yes, and it's the last one. Seven has confirmed The Voice Australia's Grand Finale for 7.00pm on Sunday 27 September on Seven and 7plus, with four artists left: The 60Four for Ronan Keating, Yung Milla for Melanie C, Daisha Auda for Kate Miller-Heidke and Tommy Novak for Richard Marx. Whoever wins takes $100,000 and a recording package.

Seven's guide still reads "TBA" for that slot, normal for a live finale. Our Voice finals page has the road that got them there.

So the Sunday clash everyone expected — a Block reveal against a Voice finale — doesn't happen. Nine handed the night over instead.

Does this change Monday to Wednesday this week?

No. Rumpus and Laundry Week runs as filed: 7.30pm on Nine tonight, Tuesday and Wednesday, at 75, 70 and 75 minutes. Tonight's episode starts the double-room build, and Scotty Cam drops a challenge into it.

Thursday, Friday and Saturday are empty for The Block, the same as last week. The week's full line-up has each night with its channel and length.

What does it do to the rest of the season?

It compresses things. A Monday reveal means the next build week starts on Tuesday 29 September rather than the usual Monday, and the guide has The Block on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday that week before the Kids Room and Re-Do Room Reveal. That reveal was first listed for Sunday 4 October, but the NRL Grand Final now has that night and TVmaze has moved it to Monday 5 October at 7.30pm.

Adam and Jolene went in front for the first time on Sunday with 175 points to Courtney and Sev's 173, which we added up in the Kitchen Week results.

How do I watch it if I miss the Monday?

9Now carries every episode free after broadcast, usually within the hour, and Nine repeats reveals around noon the next day. Neither needs a subscription. Times differ by state once daylight saving splits the country on 4 October, and our capital city times guide keeps that straight. The Block viewing guide covers nights, streaming and repeats, and every night of this season is filed in order.

FAQ

Is The Block finished for the season?
No. The auction is the end of the season and it hasn't been scheduled yet. TVmaze has episodes filed through to at least 11 October.

Will the Sunday rugby push the reveal again?
Not the rugby, but the league will. Nine has the NRL Grand Final on Sunday 4 October, so that week's reveal moves as well; TVmaze lists it for Monday 5 October at 7.30pm.

Where are tonight's quiz shows?
Our sister site runs them: AU Quiz On Air has The Chase, Deal or No Deal and Have You Been Paying Attention? every weeknight.
