I don't think the UK models can hold a candle to our's. And can someone tell me why it is so many Brits have bad teeth?? Don't they have Dentists and Orthodontist?

Am I bad because I loved the look on Perry's face when he was the first eliminated? Bwahahahaha (supposed to be my evil-scientist laugh.) Priceless! I didn't vote, but I thought Holly was the right choice.

They have national health care. I think that is part of it and something about the water. I know I have read somewhere why it is the teeth are bad. I am sure some is also genetic.

Sooooo happy, that good ol' one-expression Perry didn't win, after the panel shoved him down our throats, all season. Nice going, America! I was rooting for underdog Ben, but didn't vote, and am fine, with Holly...if she takes voice lessons

Carls, I was wondering about the water. Maybe they don't put flouride in their water.

Loved that Holly won! She strikes very beautiful poses on the catwalk. And her Fiance is very good-looking. Those two will have some killer wedding photos! I don't think that Ben's marriage has long-term potential based on the comments he kept making about how much he has changed. It was very awkward watching the two of them. I realize they had a camera shoved in their face the whole time, but dang, act like you missed her and are happy to see her! He acted like he was embarrassed she was there. I hope my perception is wrong for her sake.

Did you notice that in some shots showed Ronnie with a bandage on his right back/shoulder area and in other shots it was not there? Did they ever address that?

They don't use flouride in the water in the UK. At least we know that means it works since our teth seem to look better. I picked Holly to win from the first week too. Hated the hair they put on her last night. The dress was cool but the hair and butterflies were kind of a fright. "Hey, what's up" is not a greeting from a loving husband after 3 months apart. Maybe after being away at work for a day............I got the impression he was embarassed of her too. Probably because he had lived in NY for 3 months and had been through all these changes and she reminded him of where he came from. Holly's greeting to her fiance was what you would want to se after 3 montns. They were so cute.

Beach, wasn't the bandage covering the tattoo on his shoulderblade?

That could be it. I just loved how it would appear and disappear so randomly in the last 2 shows!

Why would they cover and uncover the tattoo? The bandage looked so ugly. Watched part of the UK 2006 version; actually fell asleep toward the very end, but looks like Marianne came in fourth, Jen came in third, Luke 2nd, and--oh dear--can't remember the winner's name; he was the former surfer "reluctantly" turned model with "big" hair. In the British version, they had a live studio audience for the walk-offs, which I liked, and also evidently live voting DURING the walk-offs, up until the very last moments, which I also liked. And until the very end, one woman and one man were voted out at the same time.

Thank you Beth! I saw when they picked the final four ... the shock of Jen. But I missed the final show. I thought for sure that Marianne would win. Big surprise! But the curly headed guy -- I can't remember his name either -- was a good looking guy. The difference, I think, between this show and our US version is that our version is so much more 'polished' ... the show it's self and the models. But I still enjoyed it!

The UK winner (this was the season in 2006) was Albert. I liked the format of their show, and it appeared that it aired more than once a week (three times a week?). I loved the live voting and audience, and the W-alkoffs (three of 'em). The narration was quite enjoyable, too.
