Departure Lounge with Hamish Blake - Lego Masters

LEGO® MASTERS Australia is like nothing you’ve seen on TV before.
It’s not your average reality TV program. There are teams and challenges, eliminations and a life- changing prize, but this is a life-sized LEGO event that will bring Australian families together in front of their TVs to witness an extraordinary new world of creativity and imagination. And in the end, only the best team will
be crowned LEGO MASTERS.

In nine episodes screened across three blockbuster weeks, eight teams of two will be put through their paces in a series of colourful challenges designed to put their masterful LEGO skills to the ultimate test – with design, creativity, ingenuity, engineering and construction techniques plus storytelling ability all under scrutiny.

In this epic battle of the bricks, imagination is the only limitation ... plus perhaps the odd cruel twist thrown in by our host, Hamish Blake.
He will ensure that no one takes themselves too seriously with his unique take on the reality TV show host/ringmaster role.

But the buck stops with judge Ryan McNaught (aka “Brickman”), the arbiter of all LEGO MASTERS Australia creations. As the sole LEGO Certified Professional in the Southern Hemisphere, and one of only 13 in the world, Brickman is without doubt the most qualified person to assume the weighty role of judge.

Eight teams of friends, relatives and workmates with the finest LEGO minds from across Australia have been granted a leave pass from jobs, kids, partners and other responsibilities to indulge in their favourite
pastime. They will pour their hearts and souls into LEGO 24/7 in this one-of-a-kind competition.

Hamish checked into the Departure Lounge to talk teamwork with his son, and why HE wanted to be a gynecologist.
