This is Bristol -- MODEL Sophie Anderton feels like she won Celebrity Big Brother, even though she didn't. The former Clifton College pupil was evicted after two weeks but says her appearance on the reality TV show in the summer was part of an "amazing year" for her. Sophie, 36, told the Daily Star: "The year 2013 has been amazing for me and I took a lot of risks, like doing Celebrity Big Brother, but I think they all paid off. "Life is fantastic and my career is going so well. Who knew that show would turn everything around? As far as I'm concerned, I won Celebrity Big Brother because my career's really taken off and I've never been happier. I'm very content with my lot. "I'm looking forward to 2014 – let's hope it's as good for me as 2013." The next series of Celebrity Big Brother starts on Channel 5 on January 3 and Sophie is hoping to make an appearance or two on its spin off show, Big Brother's Bit On The Side. "I'm hoping to go back on Bit On The Side," she said. "It would be quite interesting to be able to comment on other people's behaviour rather than being the subject of everyone's scrutiny. "I think I'll find it fascinating as a viewer rather than a contestant." Sophie has given up drinking and embarked on a rigorous exercise regime to make sure she's looking her best. "I couldn't think of anything worse than starting the new year all lethargic," she said. "When I came out of Big Brother, I went on a detox. After spending two weeks around people who drank so much, it kind of put me off. "I feel much better and I'm a on a fitness regime at the moment, training and doing Bikram yoga," she added. "I'm climbing Kilimanjaro and doing the endurance race Tough Mudder next year. I'm really on a health kick." Sophie enjoyed Christmas with her boyfriend, who she has not yet named publicly.
