An 18-year-old from Aldenham, crowned as Miss Hertfordshire in June, has come fifth in the Miss England Final.

Samantha Freedman was fast-tracked into the final 30 after receiving the title of Miss California Tan, a prize for the model who makes the best use of fake tan. Miss Freedman won a year's supply of the product. She said: "I love fake tan, I use it all the time."

Models were also required to perform a talent. "I did kickboxing," said Miss Freedman. "We had to send in DVDs of our talent, and then 30 of us were chosen to perform. I was chosen because kickboxing is original. A lot of the models were singing."

After reaching the final, Miss Freedman was picked for the last 15, and then the last seven. The results were announced on Saturday, and Miss Freedman was confirmed in fifth place. She said: "It happened so quickly I wasn't really thinking about it, but then it hit me."
