EXPLAINED: The block goes back to the future | Rare Historical Photos

Hosts Scott Cam and Shelley Craft on the set of the 2023 season in Melbourne. Inset: House 2's Leah and Ash; House 4 pre-renovation. Pictures supplied

Everyone is crowded into House Five drinking cocktails inspired by The Block - think Tools Down margaritas and Rum Renos - and the mood is celebratory as the renovating couples are dressed up to the nines, foreman Dan Reilly is getting stuck into a massive charcuterie board and host Scott "Scotty" Cam is hosing down any notion he's leaving the Nine Network.

Yep, spoiler alert: the five houses in the latest season of The Block are finished and the results - some amazing, some still showing signs of panic - were open for inspection for a media launch last week.
