The contestants must vie for the chance to create a magazine ad for Rosie Huntington Whiteley’s Marks & Spencer range. In order to relax the teams, Naomi and Caroline head to the model home for some bonding dinners. (Ou est Erin? We can only conclude she’s en route to Milan to save a fainting catwalker with some jolly sensible advice.)

As Caroline greets her girls, the screen changes to a sepia-tinged advert for the Sisterhood. As Naomi arrives with the world’s chicest takeout, Racquel inadvisedly goes in for a hug only to veer away at the last crucial second repelled by Naomi’s froideur. Cut to Caroline and her girls drinking beer and giggling. Cut to Naomi and her girls drinking green soup (wheatgrass? Veal calf souls?) in near silence...

The next morning, the mentors’ individual approaches have paid unique dividends. Caroline’s four are sunshine in a bottle, Erin’s three are neglected and squabbling while Naomi’s Emma and Racquel, are single-handedly making bucketloads of that hate-fuelled goo from Ghostbusters 2 (the third, Chloe, has escaped her cell and is huddling for warmth next to Team Caroline).

At the studio for today’s shoot are Rosie H-W and one of the most powerful women in British fashion, Soozie Jenkinson, head of lingerie design for M&S. They will be judging which of the teams will land the advert. Rosie gives Naomi a slightly terrified look. Understandably.

Before the shoot, the mentors’ managerial modes once again come to the fore. Caroline explains the best poses; Erin tells Nina, owner of the world’s best body, that she is indeed owner of the world’s best body and Naomi shouts “God help you all” and “I’m going to put my head in the oven”.

Consequently Caroline’s team look naturally commercial while Erin’s team sadly fail to perform as Nina reacts the same way any of us would upon realising that a really big camera is taking pictures of you in your pants. Naomi’s team work the strong look by looking strongly into the camera.
