There was nothing in it for the producers to fix it so Ulrika would win.
ill tell you why....

Betting!!. there is a group/ syndicate of gamblers that club together and fix it so they win £££' here is how it works...

there is a betting web site you join and the admin of the forum will say eg....(thousands of members) we will first bet £1 on vern to win this show this will make him favorite odds on, at the last minute we bet on the under dog> Ulrika, so all of you stick big £££ on her to win. there are over a thousand of us here we all ring 10x times each (cost £3.50 for 10 calls each) make it £10s worth of calls each then? out of the thousands members they can vote well over 100,000 votes + the general public votes will make sure she wins.

if i put £100 on ulrika to win i would get back £1,400 (14-1) take way the £10 of calls and the £1 iput on vern to win = £1,389 profit that is how its fixed.
Problems with this theory... they wouldn't know how many phone calls it would take to swing the vote as Channel 4 don't release the numbers - for all they know it could be millions of votes, and secondly there is no-way to prove other members of the syndicate are actually making the calls they say they are. Everyone could just leave it to everyone else.
it is members only pay to join site, if you dont all agree to do it then its not going to work, it works im a member of the site and yes we wanted ulrika to win and we all phoned in to vote for her to win and gess what? she did! we done it for rachael last summer mikey was a clear winner, but we could not have that now could we? so we phoned for the winner with best odds if you look at all the online polls you will see the winners are never the online favorites its our betting syndicate that determines who wins.
