Picture: Chris Scott Source: HeraldSun THE five couples on The Block face a nervous afternoon today with all five auctions of their South Melbourne apartments taking place now. The closed auctions started at 2pm and are expected to finish around 6pm tonight. The results will air on the final episode of the show on Channel 9 tomorrow night. The couples - Matt and Kim Owen, Trixie and Mark Johnson, Bec and George Douros, Madi and Jarrod Coppock and Alisa and Lysandra Fraser - all have separate real estate agents.

Host of the show Scott Cam told the Herald Sun at an earlier open for inspection he has high hopes for all of the apartments selling. After we bought the building and I saw it and the plans, I thought, `how are they going to get through this? But I think they have all got through with flying colours," he said.
