Britain & Ireland's Next Top Model (2013) [S09E05]

The ninth cycle of Britain & Ireland's Next Top Model premiered on 20 June 2013 on Sky Living. Two judges from the previous cycle did not retain their positions. Elle Macpherson continued as the show's head judge along with model Tyson Beckford, but fashion designer Julien Macdonald and Whitney Port left the series. Australian singer and talent show judge Dannii Minogue joined the series as a third judge. The remaining 11 contestants took on a photo shoot challenge with host Elle Macpherson and photographer Nicky Johnston geared towards helping them home in on their posing skills. Sarah was chosen as the best performer, winning a night out with three friends of her choosing. On set, the models had to pose underwater wearing colorful gowns in a photo shoot for Top Tea. At elimination Sarah received picture of the week, while Abigail, Angel, Emma, and Laura were singled out as the week's worst performing contestants. Abigail and Laura landed in the bottom two, and Abigail was eliminated from the competition. Special guests: Lauren Maddox Featured photographer: Nicky Johnston, Zena Holloway
