Lucy Ratcliffe is an English fashion model and the winner of Cycle 1 of Britain's Next Top Model in 2005.
Lucy had suffered from eczema growing up and stated she hasn't always been beautiful, it was more of the ugly duckling situation.
Before entering the show Lucy worked as a barmaid in Newcastle upon Tyne. Then, after seeing an advertisement for the show after an episode of America's Next Top Model, Lucy decided to send in a video tape and pictures of herself and got a callback for a Live audition. She was quite shy in the beginning but, as the show went on, she came out of her shell. She learned from the critics and continued to improve every week.
She made it to the final two with Edwina Joseph and the pair competed for the first place on Armani's spring-summer collection "show".
Lucy beat Edwina and was announced Britain's Next Top Model.
Lucy has said about her job: "I love the creative aspect. You get to meet interesting people, people who think like you but also people who are completely different. You can be rewarded for being who you are, but also being able to act as someone else when required on a shoot or in a show." lucy ratcliffe has said to be a new judge on Americas&britains next top model
