She is used to getting temperatures rising on Britain's Next Top Model.

But Cornish model Charlotte Holmes had to endure freezing cold while scantily clad on a Norwegian glacier while filming last night's episode.

Charlotte, 21, from Torpoint, travelled to Norway in March where she and a group of other models conquered the extremes of Folgefonna glacier under severe weather.

The challenge on the Living television series was set by Isklar Norwegian Glacial Natural Mineral Water.

Charlotte, who was Miss Cornwall 2009, said: "I'm not going to lie about how cold it was. We were pretty much naked on a glacier in a blizzard! But so many models would kill to do an incredible location shoot like this."

Ms Holmes was picked as the winner of the shoot by Isklar's chief executive Peter Krogh as the one who most embodies the glacial beauty, purity and style of Isklar.

She will appear in marketing activity with Isklar over the next year.

The Hardanger region is protected by national parks – making it one of the most pristine landscapes on earth.

Miss Holmes now stands a chance of winning the competition and its prize.
