Series summary

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

There were major changes in this cycle. The winner's prize changed and the judging panel also received a change; Icelandic fashion photographer Huggy Ragnarsson and Gerry Deveaux replaced two of the former judges, Paula Hamilton and Jonathan Phang.

This is the only cycle to feature a cast of 14 contestants (as finalists) until Cycle 6, rather than the usual 12 or 13. The international destination during this cycle was South Africa. The winner's prize was a contract with Models 1, a Max Factor Comestics campaign and a 6-page spread and cover of Company Magazine.

The winner was 18-year-old Alex Evans from Cranleigh, Surrey.

Original Airdate: 21 April 2008

The 14 girls are interviewed by the press who ask them 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 turned on by Alex, who has brought along her pet badger for the duration of the competition. They later arrive at the model house and choose their beds.

The first challenge is about pairing up and picking their partners best and worst features. Lynzi and Sophie win the challenge and are rewarded with a trip to Spud-u-like with John Leslie. 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 the following pairs:

At judging Leanne, Rachael and Catherine receive praise while Aaron, Sophie and Martha are criticised. The judges like Alex's photo. Sophie is eliminated for giving only one look throughout the entire photoshoot.

Original Airdate: 28 April 2008

The girls are sent on a crash course in dance with choreographer Supple. Supple is not impressed with the girls' freestyle moves and goes on to announce that only one person has 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 over during the runway challenge.
