UK Babe Channels Babe Of The Year 2023

I'm stunned that Charlie C didn't get into the Top 24 day babes list and Atlanta wasn't in the Top 23 night babes.

The diminished FTA shows is bound to count against Charlie C. Yoo could almost have a separate Award for FTA and Paywall shows. I suspect that to a large degree most are predominately voting on a babes FTA shows, although on Days at least that dynamic is the most likely to change. I'm sure many of us could compile a top 10 of completely different babes. You would hope that the unsung babes doing great shows behind a Paywall will gain recognition in the Webshow Awards, if we have one this year.
As for the legend that is Lanta, it's a strong argument that the few high-quality shows that she delivered were still worthy of a nomination. I don't know the numbers, it seemed as little as half a dozen or so shows, I know that I argued with myself over an inclusion. As there's no fixed criteria, just one Lanta show per year would be enough for her to win every year in most people's eyes. I suspect we are giving others a chance.

I mightily disagree with some of those who've made the top 10, but hey democracy, am I right?

That said, Stella only #19?!??

The Lanta issue is a really interesting one.
She has achieved more in her very few shows than 95% of babes have done in a much higher number of shows in 2023 imo.
That is a reflection on her genius but also a sad reflection on the mentality of rather too many other babes as well in my view.
All this being said the lack of nightshows did have to be taken into account against an admittedly small number of babes who I have deemed worthy of contention for the honours.
And for that reason I left her out of my five in the nightshow category even though I could have listed ten.
She is the absolute GOAT imo but for this year at least I have my heart set on one other particular winner in the night category.

The daytime one has become more and more difficult for me as the gap between my 1 and 2 has shrunk to miniscule proportions of preference to the extent I am torn.

I see that Amber Paige missed out by one place - finishing 11th in the night list. The same thing happened to her last year!

These are Charlie's finishing positions in the previous years of the day award.

2018 : 4
2019 : 8
2020 : 9
2021 : 18
2022 : 20

The trend actually indicates a position outside of the top 20 this year.

I had Stella Paris in my top 10 night babes, but at the expense of Ashlyn Shaw. I'm glad Ashlyn is in the top 10 as Stella finished 19th.

I got 7/10 for night babes and 5/10 for day babes, but with Ashlyn in the top 10 it feels like I got 8/10 in the former.

Surprised Preeti was so low down in the final scorings. Thought she has had a very good year this year. BS certainly regard her as one of their top performers, giving her the prime tv slots on the schedule atleast 2 nights a week (and sometime more) on a weekly basis.

*******

I feel Atalanta will be back next year with a bang all being well
No real surprise seeing the likes of Preeti and Stella near the bottom of the top 20 the last few months Preeti has been like Priya pretty boring to watch whilst Stella has been more on the web than tv

Some meaningless stats produced while I was really really really bored
