A 21-year-old Lance Corporal has been given leave from the British Army -- to represent England in the Miss World competition. LCpl Katrina Hodge - dubbed Combat Barbie - will take over from the previous Miss England, who has stepped down after being arrested in an alleged nightclub brawl.
The army beauty - who was the first runner up in this year's prestigious competition - will now represent England in the Miss World final in Johannesburg, South Africa, on 12 December.
She will hold the Miss England title until next July when she hoped to join the effort in Afghanistan.
Though Katrina is used to combat situations - she was commended for bravery in Iraq - the hostile environment of a Miss World competition could still come as quite a shock.
Rachel Christie, the niece of former Olympic sprinter Linford Christie, had been due to represent England but is noe busy trying to clear her name after claimed she was involved in a nightclub brawl with a another beauty queen, Miss Manchester.
If that wasn't odd enough the fight is said to have been over Tornado, a 22-year-old Gladiator from the Sky One series.
