B.C. siblings compete in LEGO Masters TV contest

Now watching themselves in series on CTV

It91裸聊视频檚 tough to be a television LEGO genius when Will Arnett is cracking you up on set, but that was the challenge for a brother-sister team from the Lower Mainland.

The Canadian actor who is known for his roles on Arrested Development and BoJack Horseman is the producer and host of LEGO Masters, a TV show that brings people with a passion for the iconic plastics bricks into a competition for a $100,000 prize.

David Guedes, 36, is a LEGO lifer who successfully auditioned for the show, and for his partner chose his sister Emily Guedes, 34. The show was finished shooting some six months ago, but they91裸聊视频檙e just watching it now. Last Wednesday they saw the airing of their Week Three challenge 91裸聊视频 to create a LEGO bull riding character to mount an actual mechanical bull.

They came up with Toby the Birthday Pig, who it turned out was not in the saddle for long.

91裸聊视频淣obody has ever done that before 91裸聊视频 that91裸聊视频檚 a crazy challenge,91裸聊视频 said Emily. 91裸聊视频淭ypically you don91裸聊视频檛 build LEGO to see it smashed.91裸聊视频

The next episode, which airs on Oct. 12 on CTV, will see the contestants building a tree house, with their younger selves in mind, which must be built in real trees.

They91裸聊视频檙e not talking about how the series turns out, except to say that they had a great time.

91裸聊视频淭he people we met on the show are like family now,91裸聊视频 said Emily.

They were fans of Arrested Development, and of Canadian actor Will Arnett who played George Oscar Bluth.

91裸聊视频淗e91裸聊视频檚 exactly like that (character),91裸聊视频 said Emily. 91裸聊视频淲e were laughing constantly.91裸聊视频

David, now a Surrey resident, recalls their childhood in Maple Ridge with lots of LEGO in the scenes, starting with a big bucket of hand-me-down bricks when Emily was still just a baby.

Now she works as a nurse, and he is a Learning Centre Supervisor at Douglas College, but Lego has always been part of their lives. In 2016, David joined a BrickCon organization, for AFOLs (adult fans of LEGO).

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 amazing their genius ideas, and the things they can create,91裸聊视频 he said.

Now he owns about two million bricks, and still loves to get yet another new LEGO box.

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 like a LEGO store in his house,91裸聊视频 explained his sister.

Emily also still enjoys putting together LEGO sets, which she finds as therapeutic as other people do knitting or colouring.

91裸聊视频淭he puzzle aspect of it was always really fun to me,91裸聊视频 she said.

The LEGO-loving siblings found that during the challenge they could disagree, or one shoot down the other91裸聊视频檚 ideas, without any bruised egos, bickering, or silent treatments.

91裸聊视频淪he91裸聊视频檚 a great teammate 91裸聊视频 we get along better than anyone else,91裸聊视频 said David.

Now they are enjoying reliving the competition, as they watch it on television.

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 almost like watching a memory bank,91裸聊视频 said Emily. 91裸聊视频淲e were laughing all the time 91裸聊视频 it was so much fun doing it.91裸聊视频

David would encourage anyone thinking of an audition to get involved, and see how they stack up. He said most LEGO masters have some capacity for thinking like an engineer.

91裸聊视频淏ut also being a little wacky is good.91裸聊视频
