5 July
– 4 October 2010The sixth cycle of Britain's Next Top Model, premiered on 5 July 2010 on Living. This cycle featured a completely revamped judging panel. Host Lisa Snowdon was replaced by model Elle Macpherson. The new judging panel consisted of fashion designer Julien McDonald, fashion stylist Grace Woodward, and male model Charley Speed.
The prizes for this cycle included a modelling contract with Models 1, a six-page fashion editorial, along with an appearance on the cover of Company magazine, and a £100,000 contract with Revlon cosmetics, which included a photo shoot for the company's Colorburst Lipstick and campaigns posing as the face of Revlon's Autumn/Winter 2010 trend collection launching in the UK in November.
The winner of the competition was 18-year-old Tiffany Pisani, from the island country of Malta. Pisani beat fellow contestants Alisha White and Joy Mclaren in a public vote during a live finale, a first for Britain's Next Top Model.
Living advertised the new season of Britain's Next Top Model under the slogan "when it comes to top models, it takes one to find one" heavily from 1 June 2010, featuring the new host Elle Macpherson. With an increased budget, cycle 6 claimed it would be "bigger, better and more high-fashion than ever before." It was confirmed on 18 June that series 6 would finish with a 90-minute live finale, where the public would get to choose the winner. Mark Sammon, head of commissioning for Virgin Media TV, said updating the format would give a shot-in-the-arm to the series. "Living’s audience never shies from telling us what they think, so I cannot think of a more discerning panel of judges to finally decide who truly deserves to be Britain’s Next Top Model," said Sammon.
