Kim arrived at Battersea with her colours already lined up into a specific order. She says they were easy to remember because she could sing them in her head and they made "a nice song!” She will also be bringing a lucky paper clip given to her by a work colleague.

If Kim won £1 million... she would love to buy a new house - preferably in the country - and set her daughter up for life.

Kim had "zero money" to get her to the Battersea leg of the show, and it was a £20 win on a scratch card that helped her on her way!

Did you know?
Laura’s big passion in life is horseriding, but she had to give it up because of the expense.

Nickie has had a lot of dreams about the competition, but it hasn’t helped her pick a strategy - in some of them she wins and in ome she loses, and she can’t remember what colour she went for!
