Lifetime UK has picked up a second season of Britain's Next Top Model, after successfully launching the re-tooled version of the format earlier this year. Ten episodes have been ordered for season two. 
Abbey Clancy is returning to Britain's Next Top Model. The model, who appeared on Next Top Model in 2006, has been selected to serve as head judge on the new series, which was picked up by Lifetime UK earlier this year after Sky Living opted not to proceed with the format in 2013. Other judges lined up for the series include Paul Sculfor, Hilary Alexander OBE and Nicky Johnston. 
Britain's Next Top Model is making a comeback. Some two years after Sky Living cancelled the series, Lifetime UK has commissioned Thumbs Up Productions to produce a new version of the series, after they secured the format rights in a deal with CBS Studios International. Lifetime UK has ordered ten episodes for the debut season of the new format, which does not include Ireland in that title due to licensing restrictions. Production will get underway this September in the UK and abroad for a 2016 premiere.
