Bindi Robbo of Mudgee and Deb Milgate of Wellington were only separated by three votes with 34 and 31 respectively.
In the Best Dressed Male Competition it was Wellington’s immaculately-dressed Bradley Rodgers who – not surprisingly – managed to do all the right things to take the title and looked fabulous while doing so.
