THE Block: Fans vs. Favourites

still has another week on-air, but a new series has already started filming in Prahran.

Confidential understands the four couples have been chosen and one includes a former professional sportsman.

Show host Scott Cam didn’t give too much away this week when discussing the new Prahran block, which were formerly offices.

“It’s enormous, I can’t tell you much more than that,’’ he says. “It’s going to be massive, it’s going to be brutal. That’s all I can tell you.”

The Prahran area is already saturated with new apartments, so it might be tough on many levels for the couples.

It’s been a big week for Cam, who was announced as a Gold Logie nominee on Monday.

The Block: Allstars and The Block: Sky High were also both nominated for the most popular reality program for the Logies.

“I’m more focused on the show’s nominations I suppose, because there are a whole group of people behind that,’’ he said.

The Block host Scott Cam is up for a Gold Logie nomination.

“Producers, sound people, and that’s good for them.

“The Block is like a family, we stick together, and it’s great to see everyone get recognised.

“It’s a great moral booster for the show.

“We need that, because it’s hard work.”
