Love Island contestants head to The Block for new ‘Fans v Faves’ format

Nine’s long-running renovation program The Block is set to return for a 17th season, bringing a new twist with new contestants pitted against past Blockheads from previous seasons.

Three new pairs are set to take on two sets of returning all-star couples, with the series taking place in Hampton, Melbourne. The setting will be a traditional Aussie cul-de-sac, a first for the program.

The returning favourites are Perth’s Ronnie (45) and Georgia (37) from the 2017 Elsternwick series, and Sydney couple Mitch (58) and Mark (59) from the 2019 Oslo series.
