Julian Cress - THE BLOCK - Executive Producer

On today’s pod I have 'Julian Cress' the Executive Producer of 'The Block' Australia which starts Sunday week on 'Channel Nine.' 'The Block' is a huge show for 'Channel Nine' and it is the corner stone of their line up every year. The show started 20 years ago and has been a continued success ever since. With Australian audiences becoming obsessed, hating or loving the people chosen to compete in these extraordinary house building challenges.  This season is set in the family-friendly Melbourne suburb of Hampton East, the new series features five houses designed and built in the 1950s and located on the aptly named 'Charming' Street.  'Julian' is the man behind 'The Block' and is one of my favourite TV producers in the country. This season we have been told is the most explosive yet and in terms of drama we are getting 'Melrose Place' vibes.   I will talk about to 'Julian' about the rumours in the media and we will find out what true, false and down write denied.  I will find how the houses are chosen, how the cast was chosen and why they decided to build these 5 houses so close together. 'Julian' will tease us with his thoughts on the cast and we will find out who is queen B and why that might change as the series goes on.  Plus we will get plenty of exclusives from behind the scenes of ‘The Block.’ Which will premiere on Sunday the 6th of July at 7:30pm on ‘Channel Nine’ and ‘Nine Now.’ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
