Only three contestants remained in the running for the life-changing title of Britain's Next Top Model.

With the competition still located in sizzling South Africa, the girls found themselves on safari and face-to-face with nature!

"This is the hardest deliberation of all Britain's Next Top Models," said Lisa Snowdon, as Stefanie left the competition and Catherine and Alex battled for the coveted crown.

They've risen to the challenges of demanding photoshoots, traumatic makeovers and tough house politics, but only Alex retained her place on the catwalk to win the breathtaking prize of an exclusive modelling contract, a spread in Company magazine and the chance to front a Max Factor campaign.

Congratulations, Alex! You're the winner of Britain's Next Top Model.
