Unseen footage shows moment Lisa and Rosco realise harsh truth after Domain Challenge nightmare
Updated . First published at
Exclusive: It’s been a few solid weeks of coming second for Lisa and Rosco, and last night’s Domain Listings and Buyers Jury Challenge was no exception.
After quite consistently finding themselves in second place during room reveals, the couple once again came second to Adam and Jolene at the Buyer’s Jury – and it seems it’s not only taking a toll on their budget, but their confidence too.
’Twas the night after Domain Buyer’s Jury, and Lisa and Rosco were once again feeling the sting of second place. Nine
The day after the Domain Challenge, Scotty, Shelley and Alice visited each of the houses to check on the teams’ progress for the week. While they admitted they were more than impressed with what Lisa and Rosco had done so far, nothing they said could have stopped the emotions coming to the surface.
The couple were feeling confident in their kids room, but with only one win under their belts, their budget is starting to get tight.
“I’m just a bit worried,” Lisa said through tears.
“We have amazing landscapers, and they have really big plans, and it’s just a bit hard to say that we might not be able to do it.”
She seemed to be grappling with some guilt over the fact that a whole team have been working behind the scenes to bring her and Rosco’s vision to life, yet they’re getting close to running out of funds to finish the job.
“It’s been a good few weeks of coming second, and it’s hard because we’re really grateful that we’re consistently doing well, but it’s just... we can’t do anything,” she said.
Shelley tried to reassure the couple, saying she understood that while it might not be doing anything for the budget just yet, their consistency and hard work will eventually pay off.
“You are so close to the end, the feedback has been extraordinary, your house looks absolutely beautiful, you’ve just got to keep going,” Alice said.
Lisa was struggling with the weight of wanting to provide her labourers and landscapers with enough budget to bring their vision to life. Nine
This week, there was $50,000 on the line, which would make a huge difference to the remainder of the competition for Lisa and Rosco.
While Scotty, Shelley and Alice were impressed with their progress so far, they also had some kind – and some not so kind – words to say about the other houses.
