Liz Marlow
In episode one, Gok meets 29 year-old midwife Liz Marlowe, a working mum-of-two whose curvy size 16 figure is sending her self-esteem plummeting to rock-bottom. A former head-turner who never struggled to capture male attention, Liz now can't even bear stripping off in front of her adoring husband Adrian.

When they first met eleven years ago she was the leggy blonde in her group of friends, but two kids and a few dress sizes down the line she's feeling fat, frumpy and at an all-time low.

Desperate to boost her self-confidence, Adrian constantly tries to reassure her that she's still the same "fantastically beautiful, stunning gorgeous lady" he fell for in the first place, but with Liz hiding her body under layers of unflatteringly baggy clothing, it’s clear that his efforts are falling on deaf ears. So shy that she hasn't been near a full-length mirror in nearly 18 months, Liz has become a walking testament to the fact that blondes don't always have more fun.


Gok has clearly got his work cut out if he's going to transform the body Liz hates into a body she rates, but he's determined to get her loving the skin she's in whether it's clad in figure-flattering clobber or exposed in its entirety for all the world to see.

It's time to start building Liz's confidence back up and, after displaying her scantily-clad torso on the side of a building in her home town of High Wycombe, it's clear that the first thing to go should be her horrifically grotty yellow undercrackers! With the help of some miraculous shape-shifting lingerie, Gok soon has her looking great and feeling a whole lot better.

With a bit of spa therapy, some expert fashion advice and a little hair and beauty know-how, Liz is making some real progress in forgetting the curvy tummy and becoming a yummy mummy. But can she put her new found confidence to the test when Gok invites her to bare all for a glamorous nude photo shoot? And, having faced her demons in front of the camera, can she take her mojo to a whole new level by proudly displaying her voluptuous assets on the catwalk in front of 2000 cheering supporters?

Clad in nothing but some saucy new smalls and a nervous smile Liz prepares to take to the runway, but will she exhibit model behaviour and cling on to that confidence, or is she just about to make an exhibition of herself?
