The photographers face three final assignments, including a wildcard challenge where they are given free rein to try and get one last extraordinary shot for their portfolios. They are also in Glencoe for a dramatic landscape challenge and, in a series finale, they must curate and mount what they hope will be a winning exhibition for the judges. Choosing a maximum of 15 images from the hundreds they've taken across the course of the series is a huge task in itself.

It's all still to play for as any of the six photographers could nab the title if they impress Rankin and his fellow judges from the art and fashion world.
