[rquote=2553590&tid=147128&author=RCW1945]I agree with Setanta. She completely demolished the blonde, big-breasted glamour model stereotype by showing no vanity.
Just imagine many, many female* past-HMs being re-named "dog-face" (a very insulting nom-de-guerre) and taking it as smoothly as Sophie did.

* and a lot of males [/rquote]

I think that coupled with her general fun attitude towards most things was why she won.

I think she was a worthy winner out of the five finalists we had, and I think she was definitely my choice for winner after Marcus had been evicted (he wasn't my favourite, but I think he would have been the worthiest winner); similarly we lost Freddie far too early (but I wouldn't have wanted him to win), I would have liked to have seen Angel and Noirin make the final, but it wasn't to be.

I think there were bigger characters than Sophie this year, but she really started to shine in the last month of the program, I feel.
