Renovators finale

TEN's finale for The Renovators will air on Monday October 10 -but will it still be Live?

TEN’s finale for The Renovators will air at 8:30pm Monday October 10 following Junior MasterChef.

All six homes went under the hammer at auction last week, with the results of two houses already detailed.

In tonight’s final episode, it’s the auction of our six houses. The profit from all six properties will become the prize for one very lucky renovator. The hammer is raised…bidding is open!

When TEN announced The Renovators last year it declared it would air a Live Auction finale, but in current programming information it doesn’t indicate any of the 2 hour finale being Live.

In fact it actually lists it as “The Renovators (2005).”

September 2010: The Renovators – a brand new ‘big event’ TV franchise. From Shine Australia comes the biggest home makeover show ever seen. Amateur home renovators, budding decorators and wannabe developers will battle it out through workshop and offsite challenges, skills tests and eliminations for the right to renovate one of six rundown houses. The ultimate winner will need to survive the Live Auction Finale to take the top prize.

  1. They shafted a family episode of Renovators to 11pm last Friday here in Perth. Why they couldn’t of put it on 6:30pm on a Saturday.

    I’m still not a fan of the concept. Its confusing and it doesn’t always seem fair when the “key” holder gets eliminated. The endless white room challenges. It would be interesting to see who has to take that all down or return the stock to Freedom.

    I like some of the contestants and it’ll be interesting to see who wins and what the prize money is.

  2. Thank god, bloody hell this show seems to have dragged on. Lost interest after first fortnight. I couldn’t understand the format, why people weren’t voted off (or are they?), large volume of off-site challenges taking away focus from the main game, quantity over quality production, no compelling contestants, too many judges who were not overly likeable. A bit of a muddle really.

  3. I actually like the challenges. I would find having the main renovations (Block-style) to be quite boring, hence why I watch The Renovators and not The Block.

  4. ROFL
    The Renovators 2005.

    I actually liked the show but lost interest. Why do Aussie networks need to strip these shows? I think it would be better if it was on for a 2 hr block once a week.

  5. Live auctions would have definitely secured a second season of the show. Now, it’s still not known whether this 2 hour pre-recorded finale will do as well. Probably not.

  6. it would have been very impressive if they could pull off 6 live auctions. but realistically they probably figured out it would never work. auctions are way to unpredictable in terms of timing and content for live tv. surprised they ever thought they could do it.

  7. The entire time I have watched the show I have been annoyed with the amount of off-site challenges and not enough actual renovations like is on The Block. Hopefully next season it will be more renovator oriented as if it is not I will not be wasting another 6 hours a week to see them build wedding receptions and lights for a restaurant.But I will definitely watch till the end of this season to see how the houses go at auction seems though very little work actually happens.
