Britain & Ireland's Next Top Model (S9)

Alicat

Anyone watching this on Sky Living this year? Starts tonight at 8pm. Supposedly three Irish girls in it this year.

They've dumped Julien and Grace, and replaced them with Danni Minogue, to judge alongside Elle and Tyson Beckford.

Cian Healy's girlfriend Holly Carpenter is in it

So far, the only contestants I really like are Jess and Holly (I swear it isn't patriotism).
Sarah is an awful eejit though, hoping she'll be gone soon.

I think a lot of the girls look really similar to each other this year. Only 1 red head and 2 blondes. So far they're all quite bland, personality wise.

Alicat

Sarah drives me mad, she's such a whinge! Angel is stunning but she seems like a cow.

Just can't take to it with Danni Minogue.

Pang

Really not enjoying this season. It really misses the spark of Julian Mcdonald. I was a fan!

The judges don't seem helpful at all either. Elle and Dannii have acted quite bullish at times towards some of the girls.

Tonight's episode was definitely edited to make Holly look awful. Even on the facebook page, they put up an awful picture of her.

Why did McDonald leave?

Pang

He quit it to concentrate on his fashion label. Terrible pity. Shows lacks any spark. The makeovers were the worst ever on the show. Nothing even mildly crazy. Dannii is a terrible judge.

Can never take to Minogue, in anything. A really awful choice for this show.

Pang

Very poor. She is so annoying. Her appearance at the house last night in her pjs had me cringing.

I miss all the guest judges too that they had last year. I'll watch it to the end just to see who wins but I can't imagine watching it again next year if it's renewed, unless there is a big shake up.

Glad Grace is gone as a judge as she was a right cow but don't like Dannii either. Give me Kylie anyday.

Holly is not coming across well at all. I don't have a favourite at all. At least Tyson is easy on the eye.

Pang

Elle's fashion choices really stand out this season as well for being absolutely awful. She's been wearing alot of sparkly jeans which I really don't get.

None of the girls are standing out. Last year, there were a few nice girls especially lovely Lisa and Kellie.

Are many people watching this? I really like Sarah now, she started off very soft and tearful but I have to say, I love her pics. I'm really disliking Holly, she can't deny being bitchy about the other contestants as we've all heard her. No sex appeal, or charisma whatsoever or no class:(

Pang

Been watching it every week. It's the weakest season yet in so many ways. I think the judges are awful. I miss Julian so much. I hate Dannii and Elle is starting to grate on me.

There are no famous guest judges either. I always looked forward to them in the past, especially when they got people like Paul Sculfor.

Holly's definitely coming across quite poorly. It seems like a very divided household.

At this stage, it looks like Lauren might win it. They go on about her alot, plus she has a sad background story, which they've touched on a few times. It seems more fixed.

Alicat

Nah, still can't stand Sarah. She needs a slap and some cop on.

I think Sophie is going to do very well, somewhere in the top 3, but I couldn't pick a winner. No one stands out. I have heard a quite reliable rumour about who wins, and it's very disappointing.

Pang

I like Sophie. I'm a huge fan of her hair. She also seems to be the nicest girl in the house.

I'm not surprised that the eventual winner is disappointing. You can tell who the judges are plugging.

Ann22

Lauren for sure has it in the bag...Elle's been for her since the word go. I think what Elle wants, Elle gets..No matter how well the others do in the final or how sh!ttily Lauren does, I'm convinced it'll be edited so she wins.

Ann22

Just watched...knew she'd win. Elle had her mind made up a long time methinks.

Alicat

I liked when the public voted for the winner. Hate that Elle just picks her favourite, and that's it, everyone else's dreams are dashed.
