The Block host Scott Cam responds to talk of ‘competition’ with Dr. Chris Brown as the celebrity vet starts his own home renovation show

Scott Cam and Dr. Chris Brown will go head-to-head next year when the celebrity vet stars in his own renovation show, Dream Home.

The Block presenter, 60, revealed on Saturday what he really thinks about the hot competition premiering next year on Channel Seven.

Scott playfully threatened the hunky television host to “get off my hands” and said he was just happy people still wanted to watch renovation shows, reported Yahoo lifestyle.

“Competition is healthy and if his show is doing reasonably well, that means people are still interested in this style of television,” he said.

“Once they stop watching other shows or our show, that’s the end of that style.”

Scott went on to wish ‘good luck’ to Chris, 44, who he says is ‘a good friend’.

“Obviously we don’t want them to beat us when they go head to head, but we don’t want them to fail miserably,” he continued.

Dream Home is based on the successful New Zealand series of the same name that aired from 1999 to 2013.

The home improvement show will be Chris’ first project at Seven since jumping to the network from Channel Ten.

The reno series is being created by production company Endemol Shine and will begin filming this year, but won’t air until early 2024.

Seven’s latest renovation program, House Rules, was scrapped three years ago, and network executives hope the new format will be a hit.

Chris, who signed off Ten’s I’m a Celebrity in May, signed a multi-year deal with Seven in February to produce unspecified “new projects” for the station.

He first joined Ten in 2008 to host Bondi Vet which became a surprise hit and was syndicated around the world.

The actual series was based on his practical experience as a veterinarian at Bondi Junction Veterinary Hospital in Sydney’s east.

He became a part-time panelist on The Project and also co-hosted I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! and The Living Room, which was axed last year.
