The Block — All Stars
Get ready for a fresh wave of building brilliance! *The Block All Stars* roared onto screens on February 4th, 2013, at 7:00 pm on Nine, bringing back familiar faces Scott Cam as host and Shelley Craft in her role as “Challenge Master.” This season marked a special homecoming for the show, with production moving from Melbourne – where it had been based for the previous two years – back to its original Bondi Beach location in Sydney.
