And The Winner Is...
Final
The judges, along with Abigail and Lianna, watch clips of the catwalk show and both girls begin to cry, becoming very emotional
over the thought of winning as their performances are assessed. The girls are then asked separately why they feel they should
become Britain's Next Top Model and are asked to leave the room as the judges take one last look at the girls' best photos and
ultimately decide who will be the winner. The girls return to the room and are told that the winner's final photo will appear on
the screen in ten seconds... And Lianna is crowned Britain's Next Top Model.
Lianna has now won a modeling contract with Models1, one of Britain's leading modeling agencies. She has also got a campaign for the new Ford Fiesta as well as the car itself and she will also appear on the cover of the October edition of Company magazine in 2006, with an interview about life before and after winning the show.
