Britain's Next Top Model, Cycle 5 is the fifth cycle of Britain's Next Top Model and the fifth cycle to air on Living. With an increased budget, Cycle 5 claims to be "bigger, better and more high-fashion than ever before."
The winner of this cycle, like the previous cycles (excluding Cycle 1), received a contract with modelling agency Models 1, became the face of a Max Factor cosmetics campaign, and a cover and six-page spread in Company Magazine. This was Lisa Snowdon's last series as the host before she was replaced by model Elle Macpherson.
Mecia Simson was the winner of the competition.
Runner-up Sophie Sumner along with fellow contestants Annaliese Dayes and Ashley Brown also participated as contestants on America's Next Top Model: British Invasion along with four other former BNTM contestants. While Brown and Dayes were eliminated in the 5th and 11th episodes respectively, Sumner would later claim victory as the winner of ANTM Cycle 18.
