Publish date: 2024-05-04

Will Arnett is back for another round of Lego Masters this year. Each season sees fanatics of the construction toy do all they can to create mind-blowing masterpieces. Judges have to work out whether the item replicas in season 4 are the real deal or made of Lego. As episode 6 begins, the show’s host points out that contestants Poppy and Ben are missing from the series.

Poppy and Ben were one of the 12 original twosomes to appear on this year’s competition. The grandson and grandfather duo weren’t the only family members taking part. Mothers and sons, siblings, and married couples are all getting crafty with Lego this season.

The settings were quite apt this week as many fans were curious to know more about what happened to Poppy and Ben – two contestants who were absent from week 6.

However, viewers weren’t left scratching their heads for long as the show’s host explained within the first five minutes of the episode.

Will said: “Looking around, I’m sure you’ve already noticed that we’re missing two very special people. Unfortunately, due to health reasons, Poppy and Ben are unable to continue in the competition. They will be missed.”
