Heads on The Block

By JOLENE OGLE

Those of us who can’t miss a Sunday night room reveal will be disappointed to have missed The Block veteran’s Dale Vine and Kyal Demmrich when they visited Noosa last week.
Here for a Mitre 10 conference, the two Channel 9 superstars stayed at the Ivory Palms Resort, Noosaville, where resort manager Geoff Hussin took the opportunity to grab a happy snap with the duo.
“It was a really nice experience,” Geoff said of meeting The Block stars.
“I sent the photos to my daughter and wife and they phoned me, both of them screaming… it’s lucky I knew it was them phoning.
“I can tell you, I went from excited to unpopular very quick.”
Geoff said it was refreshing to meet TV stars who were as friendly and kind in real life as they were on the show.
Dale and team mate Brad Cranfield both first appeared on The Block in 2012, before returning earlier this year for the Fans vs Faves series which saw them take home $507,250 in winnings.
Kyal and wife Kara competed against Dale and Brad, taking home an impressive $567,250 in winnings.
It is rumoured Dale will be gracing the silver screen soon with a TV show of his own in the pipeline.
