'''''Britain's Next Top Model''''' (often shortened to '''''BNTM''''' or '''''Top Model''''') is a [[United Kingdom|British]] [[reality television]] show in which a number of women compete for the title of ''Britain's Next Top Model'' and a chance to start their career in [[Model (person)|modeling]] industry.
'''''Britain's Next Top Model''''' (or '''''Britain & Ireland's Next Top Model''''' 2011–13), often abbreviated as '''''BNTM''''', '''''BINTM''''', or '''''Top Model''''', is a British-Irish [[reality television]] show in which a number of women compete for the title of ''Britain's Next Top Model'' and a chance to start their career in the modelling industry. The first "cycle" premiered on 14 September 2005 on [[Sky Living]].


The winner normally receives a modelling contract, cosmetics campaign, and a spread within a fashion magazine which also included appearing on the front cover. Other prizes which changed from cycle to cycle included a car, holiday, money, or an apartment among other things.
It is based of the hit [[United States of America|U.S.]] TV show [[America's Next Top Model]], and it shares the same format. It is currently hosted by [[supermodel]] [[Lisa Snowdon]], who also serves as head judge. It was originally hosted by [[model (person)|model]] [[Lisa Butcher]], however she left after [[Britain's Next Top Model, Cycle 1|Cycle 1]] of the show.


As part of the [[Top Model|''Top Model'' franchise]], it was based on the American television series ''[[America's Next Top Model]]''. From series 7 through 9, the show was named ''Britain and Ireland's Next Top Model'' as it had begun to include contestants from Ireland.
On [[April 18]], [[2008]] it was announced that there will be a '''''Comic Relief Does Britain's Next Top Model''''' which will be produced by livingtv but shown on [[BBC1]]. The show will see 12 female celebrities all taking part when week by week the public will vote who goes and till there is a winner, the show is to raise money for Comic Relief and will be shown instead of Comic Relief does [[Fame Academy]].


On 28 October 2013, Sky Living confirmed that the show had been cancelled.<ref>{{cite web|last=Fletcher |first=Alex |url=http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/tv/s128/britains-next-top-model/news/a526845/britain--irelands-next-top-model-axed-by-sky-living.html |title='Britain & Ireland's Next Top Model' axed by Sky Living |website=Digital Spy |date=28 October 2013 |access-date=28 October 2013}}</ref> In April 2015, the show confirmed via its Twitter account that it would be returning in 2015 on [[Lifetime (UK and Ireland)|Lifetime]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.lifetimetv.co.uk/shows/britains-next-top-model|title=Britain's Next Top Model Lifetime|date=9 April 2024 }}</ref> The title was changed back to ''Britain's Next Top Model'' due to licensing issues,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/newBNTM/status/590100672546209792|title=ALL NEW BNTM|work=Twitter}}</ref> but contestants from Ireland were still allowed to apply for the show.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/BNTM2015/status/590100844378456065|title=ALL NEW BNTM|work=Twitter}}</ref>
==Show Format==
Each season of ''Britain's Next Top Model'' has from 10-12 episodes and starts with 10-14 contestants. Each episode, one contestant is eliminated, though in rare cases a double elimination or no elimination was given by consensus of the judging panel. Makeovers are administered to contestants early in the season (usually after the first or second elimination in the finals), and a trip to an international destination is scheduled nearer the end of the cycle when 4 or 5 girls remain in the competition.


==Premise==
Each episode of Top Model covers the events of roughly a week of real time (however, while overseas, an episode may cover a shorter amount of time), and features a fashion challenge, photo shoot and/or commercial, a critique of each contestant and her performance by the judging panel led by Lisa Snowdon, and the elimination of one or more contestants (or in a rare case, no contestants are eliminated). As of Cycle 4, the current panel includes fashion photographer and former supermodel Huggy Ragnarsson and fashion guru Gerry DeVaux. Previous judges included model Lisa Butcher (who was the head judge for Cycle 1), supermodel Paula Hamilton and industry expert Jonathan Phang. Usually, an additional guest judge will sit in on the panel every week. Each episode is usually associated with a theme in the world of modeling, such as dealing with the press in interviews, selling a commercial product, appearing in a runway show or going to visit the Models1 offices for something similar to a go see.

The series features a group of young female contestants who live together in a house for several weeks while taking part in challenges, photo shoots and meetings with members of the modelling industry. Normally, one poor-performing contestant is eliminated each week until the last contestant remaining is declared "Britain's Next Top Model" and receives a modelling contract along with other prizes.
An episode usually begins with the contestants receiving training in an area concurrent with the week's theme. For example, contestants may get coached in runway walking, improvisational acting, or applying make-up to suit various occasions. A related challenge soon follows, such as a mock runway show or interview, and a winner is chosen by a judge. She receives some sort of prize, such as clothing, a night out, or an advantage at the next photo shoot, and she is usually allowed to share the benefits with a certain number of other contestants of her choice. However if more than one girl wins the challenge, the winners will go on to share the prize, instead of it being selective.


In a BBC interview, [[Elle Macpherson]] contrasted the show with the U.S. version, describing BNTM as "Uniquely British, the sense of humour and the styling is very British... more hybrid backgrounds... and I think that is really examplatory [sic] of what's going on in the UK today".<ref>BBC Radio 4, Front Row, Interview with Mark Lawson – podcasted 2 July 2010</ref>
The next segment is a photo shoot, and each contestant's performance will reflect heavily on her judging for that week. Each season features photo shoots such as bikini or lingerie shots, beauty shots, posing nude or semi-nude, posing with another model, and posing with some sort of animal(s). Occasionally an advert may also be filmed for judging purposes, however unless they do not do a photoshoot that week, the advert doesn't affect the performance heavily.


==Format==
The final segment of each episode is judging. Each contestant's photo is then shown and evaluated by the judging panel. After all photos have been evaluated, the contestants leave the room as the judges deliberate. The elimination process is ceremonious, as one by one Lisa reveals and hands out the photos of the contestants that have not been eliminated, in order of merit, occasionally saying something akin to, "Congratulations. You are still in the running towards becoming Britain's Next Top Model". The last two contestants who have not received their photos are brought up as "the bottom two", and Lisa critiques each one before revealing which of the two has been eliminated. However, there have been three exceptions, as Cycle 1 had a non-elimination due to a contestant leaving and Cycle 2 and Cycle 4 had a double elimination. The most recent episode of Cycle 4 also included a non-elimination.
{{main|Top Model series#Format description}}
Each series of ''Britain's Next Top Model'' features from ten to fourteen episodes and begins with twelve to fourteen contestants. Each episode, one contestant is eliminated, though in rare cases a double elimination or no elimination is given by consensus of the judging panel. Series 6 saw a live finale where the public chose the winner of the cycle. The series was narrated by [[Fearne Cotton]]. Due to maternity leave, Cotton did not fulfil this role for the ninth series. She was replaced by Dawn Porter. When the show got revived on Lifetime, Dawn Porter was replaced by Cycle 5 and [[America's Next Top Model (cycle 18)|''America's Next Top Model'' cycle 18]] contestant, Annaliese Dayes.


Starting with the ninth series, the elimination process was changed. Multiple contestants were in danger of elimination every week, with the number of contestants in danger being lowered as the competition progressed.
===Prizes===
Like all other ''Top Model'' programmes, Britain's Next Top Model contains somewhat luxurious prizes. The prizes are a modeling contract and representation with [[Models 1]] - one of the top modeling agencies in the Britain, a fashion spread, campaign and front cover of ''[[Company Magazine]]'' and a £100,000 contract with cosmetics giant [[Max Factor]]. Former prizes include a £100,000 contract with cosmetics company Ruby and Millie Cosmetics (Cycle 1-3), a fashion spread in ''B Magazine'' (Cycle 1) and representation with Beatrice Models in Milan (Cycle 1).


===Criticism and Praise===
===Judges===
The series 9 panel consisted of [[Elle Macpherson]], [[Tyson Beckford]], and fashion designer, pop star, model, and former X Factor Judge [[Dannii Minogue]]. It was originally reported for series 8 that [[Grace Woodward]] would leaving the judging panel to be replaced by [[Kelly Osbourne]] and that both [[Charley Speed]] and [[Julien Macdonald]] would continue on the judging panel. However it was later announced that both Speed and Woodward were leaving the panel to be replaced by Tyson Beckford and Whitney Port.{{citation needed|date=April 2020}} Previous judges have included [[Lisa Butcher]], [[Marie Helvin]], [[Paula Hamilton]], [[Huggy Ragnarsson]], industry expert Jonathan Phang and fashion expert [[Gerry DeVeaux]]. Usually, an additional guest judge will sit in on the panel every week.{{citation needed|date=April 2020}}
The show is generally considered a poor copy of the parent show ''America's Next Top Model''. The majority of complaints are about the small budget the show is given; considering the budget is much smaller than ''America's Next Top Model'', the overall quality of the show is degraded. Complaints of the photograph and the overall show quality are frequent, as well as complaints that the current judging panel are incapable of their duties, namely Gerry DeVaux. Lisa Snowdon has also been criticised for being bias towards certain contestants and favouring specific girls.


However the show has been praised on the realism of the photoshoots and challenges that the girls participate in. They are thought to be better because of the ridiculous themes that ''America's Next Top Model'' has for the photoshoots.

Britain's Next Top Model (or Britain & Ireland's Next Top Model 2011–13), often abbreviated as BNTM, BINTM, or Top Model, is a British-Irish reality television show in which a number of women compete for the title of Britain's Next Top Model and a chance to start their career in the modelling industry. The first "cycle" premiered on 14 September 2005 on Sky Living.

The winner normally receives a modelling contract, cosmetics campaign, and a spread within a fashion magazine which also included appearing on the front cover. Other prizes which changed from cycle to cycle included a car, holiday, money, or an apartment among other things.

As part of the Top Model franchise, it was based on the American television series America's Next Top Model. From series 7 through 9, the show was named Britain and Ireland's Next Top Model as it had begun to include contestants from Ireland.

On 28 October 2013, Sky Living confirmed that the show had been cancelled.[1] In April 2015, the show confirmed via its Twitter account that it would be returning in 2015 on Lifetime.[2] The title was changed back to Britain's Next Top Model due to licensing issues,[3] but contestants from Ireland were still allowed to apply for the show.[4]

Premise

[edit]
Show logo used 2005–2016

The series features a group of young female contestants who live together in a house for several weeks while taking part in challenges, photo shoots and meetings with members of the modelling industry. Normally, one poor-performing contestant is eliminated each week until the last contestant remaining is declared "Britain's Next Top Model" and receives a modelling contract along with other prizes.

In a BBC interview, Elle Macpherson contrasted the show with the U.S. version, describing BNTM as "Uniquely British, the sense of humour and the styling is very British... more hybrid backgrounds... and I think that is really examplatory [sic] of what's going on in the UK today".[5]

Format

[edit]
Main article: Top Model series § Format description

Each series of Britain's Next Top Model features from ten to fourteen episodes and begins with twelve to fourteen contestants. Each episode, one contestant is eliminated, though in rare cases a double elimination or no elimination is given by consensus of the judging panel. Series 6 saw a live finale where the public chose the winner of the cycle. The series was narrated by Fearne Cotton. Due to maternity leave, Cotton did not fulfil this role for the ninth series. She was replaced by Dawn Porter. When the show got revived on Lifetime, Dawn Porter was replaced by Cycle 5 and America's Next Top Model cycle 18 contestant, Annaliese Dayes.

Starting with the ninth series, the elimination process was changed. Multiple contestants were in danger of elimination every week, with the number of contestants in danger being lowered as the competition progressed.

Judges

[edit]

The series 9 panel consisted of Elle Macpherson, Tyson Beckford, and fashion designer, pop star, model, and former X Factor Judge Dannii Minogue. It was originally reported for series 8 that Grace Woodward would leaving the judging panel to be replaced by Kelly Osbourne and that both Charley Speed and Julien Macdonald would continue on the judging panel. However it was later announced that both Speed and Woodward were leaving the panel to be replaced by Tyson Beckford and Whitney Port.[citation needed] Previous judges have included Lisa Butcher, Marie Helvin, Paula Hamilton, Huggy Ragnarsson, industry expert Jonathan Phang and fashion expert Gerry DeVeaux. Usually, an additional guest judge will sit in on the panel every week.[citation needed]

Requirements

[edit]

According to the show's official site, anyone with the right to live or work in Britain is free to apply for the show, but must meet the height requirement of 5'7" (170 cm), and be between the ages of 18 and 23 at the time they try out for the show.[6] This is true for series 6-8. During the first casting episode of cycle 7, some producers stated that 'The requirements would be stricter' in order to accommodate models closer within the range of the real fashion world.

Exhibition

[edit]

Britain & Ireland's Next Top Model Live was launched by Media 10 in October 2010 at ExCeL London.[7] The event was created to immerse members of the public into the Britain and Ireland's Next Top Model (BINTM) lifestyle. Bringing the TV series to life, the event gave every visitor the opportunity to experience the Top Model lifestyle for themselves. The show featured 45 minute catwalk shows, music performances from celebrities and an exhibition full of clothes and fashion accessories for visitors to purchase.

The 2011 Britain and Ireland's Next Top Model Live took place from 28 to 30 October at London ExCel.
