TERRITORY tough Big Brother contestant Sophie Budack has reached the top five of the reality TV show after surviving an eviction and a monster cash temptation.

After being evicted to the white room, where she spent 24 hours in limbo with Kieran Davidson, Budack returned to the house while Davidson succumbed to temptation, pocketing a handy $15,344.

Budack is sure to make the most of her second chance, ready to push for the top three alongside in-house romantic interest, Chad Hurst.

“It was a state of shock coming back in but I was so fired up,” she said.

“Seeing (fellow contestant) Chad was like the icing on the cake, to see him standing there when I walked in, it was everything.
