Britain's Next Top Model, Cycle 4 is the fourth cycle of Britain's Next Top Model. The cycle, like the previous cycles, is aired on LIVING TV. The cycle is said to be "Bigger, better and sexier than ever before".

The international destination during this cycle is Cape Town, South Africa. The prize is management and representation by Models 1, a £100,000 contract with Max Factor cosmetics and a fashion spread and cover of Company Magazine

The winner will be announced on July 7, 2008.

Changes

Major changes have occurred in this cycle. The winners prize has changed and the judging panel has also received a change. Icelandic supermodel and Photographer Huggy Ragnarsson and top fashion guru Gerry Deveaux will join the judging panel, replacing former judges Paula Hamilton and Jonathan Phang. The number of girls in this cycle has also been increased to 14 which is the highest number of girls accepted into the competition.

Episode Summaries

Aptitude and Natural Talent

Original Airdate: April 21, 2008

The 14 girls all go to an interview with the press where they are asked why they want to win. Lisa is disappointed in Aaron, Leanne and Martha for not saying they think they can win, but says she is impressed and excited by Alex.

The first challenge is about pairing up and picking your partners best and worst features. Lynzi and Sophie win the challenge and are rewarded with a day out with two other couples. Upon their return Stefanie calls a house meeting over the kitchen being filthy and verminous.

The girls then receive Lisa Mail about their first photoshoot and later find out it's a topless shoot in pairs. At judging Leanne, Rachael and Catherine receive praise while Aaron, Sophie and Martha are criticised.

The judges like Alex's photo but when she says she doesn't like it, it turns them off, and they think Stefanie's confidence comes off as arrogance. In the end, Aaron and Sophie end up in the bottom two with Sophie being eliminated.

  • Bottom two: Aaron Hunt & Sophie Roberts
  • Eliminated: Sophie Roberts
  • Featured photographer: Elizabeth Hoff
  • Special guests:

Poise and Composure

Original Airdate: April 28, 2008

The girls are sent on a crash course in dance with top choreographer Supple. When Supple asks for them each to freestyle he is not impressed with the girls' moves and goes on to announce that only one person has a glimmer of potential, Leanne. The girls then get a runway lesson from top fashionista Jeanette who has the girls walk in seven inch platform stilettos designed by Terry De Havilland. Leanne, having done well in the previous task, breaks down into tears after falling flat on her face during the runway challenge.

Jeanette and Terry then choose the best seven girls - Aaron, Catherine, Charlotte, Lauren, Lynzi, Martha and Rachael - to win this weeks prize. The seven winners get to take part in a fashion show featuring the work of top designer Scottee - whose dresses are all made out of paper. The girls also wear the seven inch platforms they wore in the challenge earlier. Then at the photo shoot the theme was "Girl's Night Out" with all the girls getting different scenarios.

Contestant Scenario
Aaron The Latin dancer.
Alex The waitress.
Catherine The "cheated on" girl.
Charlotte The crying girl.
Lauren The flirtatious girl.
Leanne The "broken heel" girl.
Lisa The girl who cheats.
Louise The angry girl.
Lynzi The Birthday girl.
Martha The pole dancer.
Musayeroh The desperate flirter.
Rachael The DJ.
Stefanie The tired girl.

Catherine is reduced to tears after Gerry asks her to look angry in her photoshoot but at the end tells her she looks more like a lunatic.

Back at the house, Aaron expresses her feelings at the way she is treated in the house, which escalates into a large argument which upsets Rachael, causing her to vomit outside and question her position with other girls in the house.

At judging, some of the girls manage to pull off good photos with Stefanie, Rachael and Lisa being praised by the judges, but Catherine, Musayeroh, Alex, Martha, Aaron and Leanne receive harsh comments from the judges. In the end, Alex and Musayeroh end up in the bottom two and Musayeroh is sent home because the judges saw no model potential.

  • Bottom two: Alex Evans & Musayeroh Barrie
  • Eliminated: Musayeroh Barrie
  • Featured photographer: David Ellis
  • Special guests: Supple, Jeanette, Terry De Havilland, Jodie Harsh, Scottee

Style and Presentation

Original Airdate: May 5, 2008

The girls are told that they are getting their makeovers in a Lisa Mail. Once they arrive at the salon, they discover that all the mirrors have been covered with black paper - to prevent the girls from seeing their makeovers till they are completed. Aaron, Charlotte, Rachael and Stefanie begin to cry at the thought of having their hair cut off but most the girls are happy with the final result. Alex threw a temper tantrum at the thought of getting her hair cut, but she - like the others - was pleased with the final result.

The challenge was a bucking bronco advertisement for the ever so cheesy "Britain's Next Top Model Hairspray" in which they had to learn a script and bring some comedy to the challenge. Leanne was shocked once it was announced she had won and a lot of the girls (especially Lisa) were annoyed. Back at the house a split was caused as the more sensible girls (Martha, Lynzi, Lauren, Louise, Lisa, Stefanie) stayed upstairs as the others led by Rachael made clothing out of kitchen utensils and rolled around naked in chip fat and mayonnaise.

For this weeks photoshoot they had the added element of working with a small dog, however Aaron, Lauren and Lisa had to pose with a Weimaraner. Gerry was extremely impressed with Martha who brought emotion and poses to the shoot but was very annoyed with Louise who walked onto the shoot looking like she'd just been slapped in the face with a hot frying pan. Lisa and Rachael gave great shots but Stefanie and Lynzi lacked to produce anything editorial.

At the judging panel a lot of comments were made on the dire advertisements and the judges gave mostly good comments to the girls on their photos. In the end, Louise and Lauren end up in the bottom two, and Louise is sent home.

  • Bottom Two: Louise Heywood & Lauren Donaldson-Stanley
  • Eliminated: Louise Heywood

Character and Personality

Original Airdate: May 12, 2008

The girls took part in a challenge for Jai Kudo glasses, to which the girls had to use their facial features to portray their set emotion, Stefanie excelled in this and won a set of Jai Kudo frames. They then later had to put together an outfit that showed their own personal style, in which Stefanie's glamour look is criticized, and Alex is again frustrated by her makeover. In the end, it is Charlotte that wins the challenge and is, coincidently, booked by the client for a future job.

At the weekly photoshoot the eleven hopefuls were greeted by Gerry Deveaux and Giorgio Guidotti, of Italian fashion house, Primarni. Gerry explained the shoot was for the latest collection by SportMax – one of Max Mara's labels – and that the girls had to be photographed elegantly climbing out of a lowered sports car whilst retaining their dignity. Many of the girls struggle, much to the disappointment of the judges, in particular Lauren's focus and Stefanie's editorial potential is questioned.

In the elimination, Lisa and Lauren were in the bottom two. The judges agreed that they should had both been further on in the competition than they were, but the girls had to wave goodbye to Lauren after her second consecutive appearance in the bottom two and Lisa is saved.

  • Bottom Two: Lauren Donaldson-Stanley & Lisa Fowler
  • Eliminated: Lauren Donaldson-Stanley

Exhibition and Spectacle

Original Airdate: May 19, 2008

The girls meet with TV star, June Sarpong to learn interview skills, and are watched undercover by two magazine journalists who praise Charlotte for being the most relaxed, Leanne for her story which "many would like to hear about" and Lisa for playing up to her androgynistic look. They say that Catherine and Martha were a 'breath of fresh air', but not interesting enough. Stefanie reveals during the interview that she once dated Lee Ryan, which sparks some snide comments from the other girls, with Alex saying they weren't interested by this fact at all.

The claws are out as the girls critique each other during the challenge, which was walking down a spiral staircase with poise and elegance. Martha receives praise all round, as does Rachael and Lisa. Rachael wins the challenge, and chooses Charlotte and Aaron to share her prize of attending a showbiz party, whose guests include Louise Redknapp and many others. While at the house the remaining girls remove Aaron's bed as a prank. This causes tension on Aaron's return between Lynzi and Aaron, and in turn, Leanne and Aaron. Eventually almost all the girls end up arguing with somebody (except Rachael who was criticized by the other girls for avoiding any conflict). Stefanie and Charlotte come to blows, as during an argument, Stefanie imitates Charlotte's Liverpudlian accent.

At the photoshoot Huggy teaches the girls the 10 model commandments:

Contestant Commandment
Aaron Thou shalt work the camera at all times
Alex Thou shalt not steal from catwalk shows
Catherine Thou shalt kill for fashion
Charlotte Thou shalt date a rockstar
Leanne Thou shalt honour thy lipstick and mascara
Lisa Thou shalt be a slave to fashion
Lynzi Thou shalt always wear high heels
Martha Thou shalt always get thy beauty sleep
Rachael Thou shalt detox thy body at any given chance
Stefanie Thou shalt not worship any God other than the fashion God

In judging Charlotte was praised for being a versatile, Stefanie for using the judges advice and finally producing a great photo, and Martha for her constant improvement. The judges say they like Alex's picture, but that she doesn't present herself as a model. Eventually Lisa, for the second time, and Lynzi fail to impress and land in the bottom two, and Lynzi being sent home.

  • Bottom Two: Lynzi Arnott & Lisa Fowler
  • Eliminated: Lynzi Arnott
  • Featured Photographer: Huggy Ragnarsson
  • Special Guests: June Sarpong

Drama and Performance

Original Airdate: May 26, 2008

This week the girls learn some new choreography with Supple, who has returned after training them in a previous episode. Alex and Aaron struggle with the dancing challenge, as do most of the girls except Stefanie who picked up the moves well. Yet, Stefanie did not win the challenge much to her disappointment, but was told she had a lot of potential. Ironically it was Alex who won, along with Rachael, Leanne and Catherine, who all performed their routine in a live concert.

For this week's photoshoot, the girls are told they are to pose for an album cover, and one of them will actually be used. The girls had to pose in a white space in bikini's, imagining they were at a beach. Leanne becomes very self conscious about her body, and Charlotte laughs through most of her shoot, much to the annoyance of the photographer.

Lisa Snowdon decided she would treat the girls and had arranged for The Bar Wizards -finalists on last years Britain's Got Talent- to come and make cocktails. All the girls enjoyed themselves, but Aaron once again drank too much.

At the judging panel, the judges were critical of a lot of photos, but praised Alex and Stefanie, and announced Leanne was chosen as the cover. Martha, Rachael, Catherine and Lisa produced poor photos, much to the disappointment of the judges. Charlotte was heavily criticized by the judges for showing up to the shoot with a bad attitude. In the end it was Charlotte and Lisa in the bottom two, Charlotte for not taking the competition seriously, and Lisa for producing a bad photo once again. Lisa was sent home after being in the bottom two three consecutive weeks.

  • Bottom Two: Lisa Fowler & Charlotte Denton
  • Eliminated: Lisa Fowler
  • Featured Photographer: Marc De Groot
  • Special Guests: Supple, The Bar Wizards

Intelligence and Originality

Original Airdate: June 2, 2008

The models face an acting challenge which includes a steamy kissing scene with guest actor Guy Burnet. The acting lesson serves as practice, as they later go on to film a commercial for jewellery, in which two girls are chosen as feature roles. It is revealed later at panel that the chosen girls are Alex and Catherine. The commercial causes a problem for Rachael as it involves moving around a set of fire, which she is affraid of, yet on set she seems to have no problem at all. This annoys Catherine and she confronts Rachael back at the house, in which Alex sides with Catherine. This then provokes Stefanie into defending Rachael, leading Catherine into calling her two faced. Charlotte then attempts to defend Rachael as she is angered by Catherine when she tells Rachael she doesn't like her facial expressions, Catherine retaliated stating Charlotte talks down to people. Leanne tries to calm things down and also defends Rachael, but is criticised by Catherine for being a 'clown'

The photoshoot this week is a couture shot where each girl had to portray a different emotion.

Contestant Emotion
Aaron Pious
Alex Sadness
Catherine Pleading
Charlotte Desire
Leanne Pure Evil
Martha Terrified
Rachael Happiness
Stefanie Anger

This caused problems for some of the girls, including Rachael, Martha and Leanne. Martha is criticised for having all the potential in the world but not using it, whereas the judges feel that Leanne lacks the versatility to be a high fashion model. In a shocking elimination, both girls are asked to leave, leaving Leanne devastated.

  • Bottom Two: Martha Braddell & Leanne Nagle
  • Eliminated: Martha Braddell & Leanne Nagle
  • Featured Photographer: Christopher Bissell
  • Special Guests: Guy Burnet

Imagination and Creativity

Original Airdate: June 9, 2008

The girls had to pose as different types of mannequines for their photoshoot:

Contestant Mannequin Style
Aaron Wicked
Alex Elegant
Catherine Dominatrix
Charlotte Broken
Rachael Rocker
Stefanie Crazy

Stefanie began to panic before her shoot as she didn't have a chance to take her epilepsy medicine, and she was worried about the camera flash. She didn't let the worry affect her shoot and delivered an excellent photo, which the panel admired. Rachael also delivered a good photo but her sincerity was questioned by the judges. It was Charlotte and Aaron who ended in the bottom two this week. Charlotte's photo was unsatisfactory as she lost the beauty in her facial expression, Aaron on the other hand showed beauty but lacked any energy in the shoot. In the end it was Aaron who was sent home as the judges agreed she should have progressed further by this stage in the competition.

  • Bottom Two: Aaron Hunt & Charlotte Denton
  • Eliminated: Aaron Hunt
  • Featured Photographer: Thiery Van Biesen
  • Special Guests: Jeanette

Stamina and Endurance

Original Airdate: June 16, 2008

First, the girls are put through a series of circus 'acts' including a tightrope competition and swinging from a trapeze, which Alex has trouble with due to her fear of heights. Later, Stefanie confronts Alex about how Alex speaks badly of her behind her back; a row ensues, leaving Alex and Stefanie's friendship in tatters. The next day, the girls are asked to model dresses on plinths in London's streets for an hour, changing their poses every five minutes; the task was won by Rachael, who got not only to keep her £1000 dress but also to invite two friends along for champagne (Charlotte and Stefanie), whereupon she was presented with a beautiful necklace worth in the region of £5000. Back at the house, Catherine and Alex decide to play a series of pranks on the three absent girls, including rubbing soap onto their toothbrushes, putting washing up liquid in Rachael's deodorant and leaving Stefanie a note 'reserving' her washing up but clearing everything else up. Before they return, Catherine's guilt gets the better of her and she disposes of the deodorant, but leaves the other pranks before pretending to sleep on the sofa with Alex. Upon the other girls' return, they confront Catherine and Alex, only for Alex to deny it was anything other than a 'harmless joke', as well as both the girls denying they touched the others' toothbrushes. Next, they are visited by Lisa herself, who reads them their Lisa-mail and presents them with 2 dresses each, whilst commenting Alex is not 'girly' enough. The girls then had to pose for beauty shots in Zandra Rhodes dresses, and under the designers direction, in the style of sporting events:

Contestant Sport
Alex Pole Vault
Catherine High Jump
Charlotte Long Jump
Rachael Hurdles
Stefanie Javelin

During the shoot Alex snipes about the style of dress given to her to Rachael, commenting it is not 'sexy' enough and provoking indignance from the hair and makeup director, whilst Catherine sneaks a peek at Charlotte's photoshoot which is, of course, not permitted. She remarks Charlotte's pose is 'easy' and that some people in the competition keep getting given easy shots whilst others are given more challenging ones, much to the annoyance of Stefanie who responds saying it wasn't fair to comment on other peoples performances. Later, when Charlotte brings Catherine up on this, Catherine denies all and claims she was only stating she felt her position was a bit more difficult. At the judging panel, whilst Alex nails the difficult shoot of holding her body completely horizontal, thus impressing the judges, and Catherine and Rachael achieve admirable photos, Stefanie is criticised for making her body appear 'four times its normal size', whilst Charlotte is told she looks as if she is 'giving birth in mid air'. Stefanie and Charotte end up being in the bottom two, with Charlotte being sent home for again, not delivering a good photo.

  • Bottom Two: Stefanie Wilson & Charlotte Denton
  • Eliminated: Charlotte Denton
  • Featured Photographer: Simon Derviller
  • Special Guests: Zandra Rhodes

Beauty and Covergirl

Original Airdate: June 23, 2008

The girls start the week by attending a casting session with Sadie Frost and Jemima French, in which the girls are judged on their overall look and performance. The girls then view an African Tribal dance in which Lisa Snowdon is carried in at the end. Lisa informs the girls that whoever makes it through the next elimination, will continue the competition in South Africa.

They then meet up with Caroline Barnes and Sophie Beresiner for a beauty editorial. Firstly, they looked at the girls portfolios in which they say Alex's look is not interesting and Catherines may be limited. Stefanie on the other hand was complimented on her look and versitility, and Rachael was heavily praised for her portfolio. The girls then did a beauty shoot infront of each other. When it was Rachael's turn to model, Alex got bored and didn't pay attention which Rachael found off putting and rude. The girls then had to choose out of each other who was the best in that shoot, to which Alex and Rachael chose Catherine and Stefanie and Catherine chose Rachael. As it was a draw, Stefanie and Alex had to choose between themselves who out of Catherine and Rachael would win the challenge. Rachael realised Alex would not back down on her decision and therefore withdrew herself and Catherine won.

Back at the house, Rachael got annoyed with Alex's bad attitude and confronted her, to which Alex hid herself under her bed covers. Rachael said Alex was being childish about the discussion and didn't seem to want to win as much as everyone else, to which Alex shouted back and then refused to acknowledge Rachael and Stefanie's opinions.

The photoshoot was for the cover of Company Magazine and who ever wins the competition will have this as the actual cover. Lisa was also there to interview the girls on how things were back at the house, to which Stefanie reluctantly mentioned Alex's bad attitude, and Rachael revealed how much Alex was rude in the previous challenge and that she didn't think Alex deserved to win on looks alone. Lisa then questioned Alex and Alex assured her that she was determined to win and that Rachael had lied about not paying attention in the challenge, which is untrue.

At the judging panel, the girls were asked about why they thought they deserved to be Britain's Next Top Model, to which Stefanie's heartbreaking speech about her struggle to overcome her glamour look touched the judges. Stefanie's beauty shot was described as 'perfection' and her cover showed her lucious look, however Jemima French said it looked as though she was "[Jemima's] teenage daughter demanding something". Both Rachael's photos were also heavily praised by the judges. Catherines beauty shot was praised by the judges but her cover was not well recieved. Alex's beauty shot was also praised, but her pose on the cover bothered some of the judges as she lost her neck.

In the end Catherine and Alex ended up in the bottom two this week. Lisa described Alex as having a cool funky edge, and Catherine as having a high fashion look and interesting beauty. In a surprise twist, both were put through to go to South Africa and noone was eliminated.
