Time sure does fly when you're having fun, there's just one day left of The Block. 

Although the contestants might not feel the same way about the 'fun' part with so much still left to do.

"There's painting, cleaning, styling, pot planting, gurneying, bin runs," Sarah-Jane rattles off her to-do list. 

"There's so much to do I don't even know where to start." 

Ankur and Sharon are racing to get to the finish line, although their landscaper Ashley isn't hopeful about their chances. 

"Even with the redesign it's not going to get finished," he tells cameras. 

"We're just trying to finish the three elements that we've got to try and get it across the line for Sunday." 

But their landscaping isn't their only problem. Site manager Aidan has serious concerns about the lack of progress on House 3's shed. 

"There's not a sheet on anywhere, there's not a start anywhere," Aidan tells House 3's builder Liam and Sharon.

Liam says he hasn't been able to make much of a start because he doesn't have the materials even though Aidan points out their whereabouts and says they were "brought in days ago". 

"There's been stuff sitting here ready to go for quite a while," Aidan explains. 

"I don't think there's been an effort put into the shed. Like we've almost given up."

Liam says that's not the case and whacks a few sheets onto the shed to show Aidan they're at least making a start. 

"We're gonna spend 10 minutes putting sheets on to say, 'There you are, there's your sheets,'" Liam tells the cameras.

But Aidan isn't buying Liam's lacklustre attempt to start the shed.

Ankur and Sharon seem to have accepted their shed won't be finished. 

"I've basically conceded that the shed will not get done because even if we get materials right now it's just not going to happen," Ankur admits.  

While they have come to terms with the reality of what they'll get done, it doesn't make it any easier to deal with.

"I don't even feel comfortable with having anyone walk through here with the state of where we're at," Sharon cries to Aidan.

Aidan sympathises with Sharon and Ankur and offers them a team of labourers to help with the clean up.

"If we start to clean up, we'll start to feel better," Aidan tries to lift their spirits. 

And it seems to have worked. 

"Tomorrow we are going to present this house in the best possible state we can given the circumstances," Sharon says with her head held high. 

"And we don't even care about what the judges think anymore because at the end of the day we do have the best house on The Block."

But just as things are looking up, Ankur and Sharon's chippy Scotty bails early. 

Ankur and Sharon aren't surprised and say it's "quite indicative" of their whole experience with Scott and the building team. 

"It's our last day on the show, we have so much work to do and you've gone at 4:30," Ankur says.

"Just left us and said, 'Oh I didn't even need to be here on a Saturday," Sharon adds. 

It's not the only goodbye happening on The Block, it's also time to farewell Foremen Keith and Dan.

"Yes we did clash and not see eye to eye a couple of times," Oz admits. 

But the boys think the foremen have been "unreal". 

"You guys aren't here to shut us down but to always improve and make us charge forward," Oz thanks Keith and Dan.

"You guys have taught us so much," Omar adds.   

Ankur and Sharon have a similar sentiment toward Keith and Dan. 

"We know that you guys are always looking out for us even though we didn't know that at the time," Sharon says. 

Keith and Dan do the rounds and they dub Dylan and Jenny "the most positive couple on The Block".

And while Keith really does mean that he also worries that Dylan and Jenny have put too much of their energy into the tiny house Game Changer.  

"They've neglected all of the shed and they've neglected the decking," he says. 

"I'm not really sure if they're going to finish or not."

Even Jenny admits "there is probably two weeks worth of work to do in 24 hours". 

But true to her positivity she says "they'll be pushing to the very last minute."  

It's safe to say that the last night on The Block is going to be a very late one.
