While they’ve been a favourite of Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen throughout this season of House Rules, Sean and Ella ended up at the bottom of the leaderboard last Sunday after the flamboyant judged deemed their work on Aaron and Daniella’s backyard “awful” and gave it a 4/10. Meanwhile, it was a three-way tie for the remaining teams. Kate & …
Last Sunday saw the House Rules teams return home with just $5000, and 24 hours to fix the worst zones in their homes.

Last Sunday saw the House Rules contestants come face to face with the judges for the first time this season, when they delivered their verdicts on Aaron and Daniella’s Queensland renovation. Not only did the show get rather heated, but two teams deliver unfinished rooms. An un-tiled laundry and a smashed shower screen made for some tense …
It was a mostly negative response from NSW’s Troy and Bec when their western Sydney home was unveiled last week. In most cases they didn’t feel that their design directive (ultra-modern with ‘V8’ styling) had been properly adhered to.
