The Block 2025 Episode 3 and 4 recap: Dan fires up at ‘dodgy' Han while teams are forced to rip tiles from walls
A last minute tiling disaster leaves two teams high and (not so) dry as one contestant is caught blue-handed breaking the rules. With just 40 hours left until tools down, Britt and Taz and Alicia and Sonny were informed that they would have to pull their freshly laid tiles off the wall. The reason? Both their tilers had used a slow-drying glue, which – as Foreman Dan foreshadowed earlier in the week when he spotted a tub of the stuff – is banned on The Block. A NEW START: Why The Block 2025 is different WINDFALL: How Daylesford is cashing in on The Block WON'T BE MISSED: Why Scott Cam doesn't care about big fish leaving the show In the normal renovation world, tiles can be left several days to dry on a wall or floor before they are grouted. On The Block, that window can be crunched to a matter of hours, hence the need for a fast-drying glue. The only exception to this rule is ceramic tiles, which are porous enough to allow even the slower-setting adhesive to dry. Taz's tiler, after putting in a valiant effort to defend his craftsmanship, was crushed to be told to start again. As was Taz. 'You put in a good shift, you put in the work and you see all your beautiful work up on the walls, and they tell you that have to tear it all off,' Taz said. Poor Alicia and Sonny faced an even worse situation. All of their tiles needed to be washed by hand before they could be reapplied. And some of their waterproof membrane lifted off with the tiles and would also need replacing. Channelling his inner football coach, Sonny gave his exhausted tradesmen a rousing pep talk, urging them to carry on. Meanwhile Mat and Robby were off shopping for bathroom decor, blissfully unaware of what was going down on site. There, Mat discovered Robby's indifference and indecision on soap dish selection was the kryptonite to his 'gay styling superpowers'. They may be the least experienced team on The Block, but Robby and Mat have proven they are a force with which to be reckoned. The pair were the first to pass their waterproofing inspection (despite having to blow dry their floor the day before). And they were the first to begin tiling. And now their potentially game-changing wine cellar plan has been approved, the boys have shown they are not just here to play. 'Dark horse baby! Neigh, neigh b***h!' Mat declared. Upon their return to site, they learned their own tiler had also used the banned glue. But unlike the other teams, Mat's choice of undulating ceramic tiles had saved them from also having to start from scratch. They just had to remove the grout. 'Compared to everyone else, we got away with murder,' Robby said. While Robby and Mat dodged a bullet, Han found herself in Foreman Dan's crosshairs when she blatantly ignored his instructions and sneakily tried to make a start on the second coat of waterproofing without professional supervision. Caught roller in hand, blue waterproofing splattered all over her fingers, Han first claimed the plumber was with her when she was applying the second coat (even though he was nowhere to be seen) before then tearfully telling Dan she hadn't understood his instructions. 'I've lost trust because you've just gone behind my back,' was Dan's response. 'He thought I was being dodgy so that hit hard,' Han worried. 'You're just handy Han,' reassured Can. 'It's a really high pressure environment and she is a really hard worker who likes to get in there and get her hands dirty. 'At home we would be doing all of this by ourselves.' Han's can-do attitude paid off with Scotty Cam and Shelley Craft (who rolled into town in a red sports car to survey the sites). Deemed the hardest worker on site, Han was rewarded with five plants of her choice (as long as they were no taller than Shelley). Nonetheless the hosts had grave concerns the girls had bitten off more than they could chew with their ambitious design and one-man tiling crew. It wasn't to cut costs, the tiler is a perfectionist who insists on working solo. No mean feat when there's floor to ceiling tiles and a curved feature wall of finger tiles to complete in small space of time. But hey, at least he knew what glue to use!

Logies 2025: Kate Miller-Heidke on her first nomination and new coaches on The Voice
Kate Miller-Heidke has gone from performing at the Logies two years ago to being nominated for a prestigious award as a coach on The Voice. The 43-year-old singer, who grew up in Brisbane 'far away from the showbiz world', said she was 'absolutely chuffed' to be nominated for her first Logie in the most popular new talent category. She is up for the award alongside Guy Montgomery from his ABC spelling bee series, Home and Away's Hailey Pinto, Jenny Tian from Taskmaster, Kylah Day for her role in Netflix show Territory and MasterChef's Sofia Levin. The winners will be announced at Sunday's ceremony in Sydney. The Caught in the Crowd singer said she felt like a bit of a 'fraud' to be nominated as a new talent nearly 20 years after her first album and TV appearance. 'TV is not my world. As a musician, it was something entirely new for me when I started on The Voice last year, but it's just been so much fun and such a gift to my life,' she said. 'It's just amazing to be embraced by this new world.' While it's her first nomination, attending the Logies isn't her first rodeo, having sung Olivia Newton-John's Xanadu at the event two years ago as a tribute to the late star. She was also in attendance last year when The Voice took out the best entertainment program award. 'I love it. Personally, I think it's much more fun than the ARIAs,' she said. 'The after-party is pretty amazing. There are just so many interesting people and a really eclectic mix of people who write shows and create shows, actors and comedians and people in the news.' Miller-Heidke said it would be 'incredible' if she won, but was 'keeping my expectations low'. The classically trained singer will enter another season of The Voice this year alongside a slew of new judges, including Ronan Keating, Spice Girls' Melanie C and Richard Marx. 'I was nervous to meet them all at first, because I was the only returning coach (and only Australian),' she said. 'I always have a bit of imposter syndrome when it comes to meeting these massive stars, because, you know, I'm just this little Australian singer-songwriter. And I'm sure they're thinking, 'Who the hell is this?' But they were all so warm and so lovely. We all became really great friends. 'I was incredibly star struck by Mel C, I grew up in the era of the Spice Girls, so that was massive. And I was a massive fan of Richard and Ronan's. And Ronan is just the most lovely, charming man you'll ever come across.' Despite all the coaches getting on and bringing the good vibes, Miller-Heidke said she definitely felt former coach Guy Sebastian's absence. 'It did feel sort of like the end of an era in that way, because he really sort of dominated that show for so long,' she said. Miller-Heidke said she loved being involved in the hit show due to its dedication to live music. 'I love being able to work with young artists and help them to realise what their strengths are,' she said. 'Some of them are just incredible. And I also love being part of a show that's one of the only shows on TV that still has live music.' While she is a mentor for aspiring singers, Miller-Heidke has found herself searching for her own mentors as she gets older. 'I think it can be invaluable,' she said. 'I've been lucky enough to have Tina Arena on speed dial for a few years now. She's always up for a good chat.' Away from The Voice, Miller-Heidke has been in the UK mixing her new record, which she hoped would be released at the end of the year. She also wrote songs for Muriel's Wedding the Musical, which just opened in Leicester to rave reviews.
