The 2011 STV Character Competition - R1 - Day 4 - Nikita (Nikita) vs. Chuck Bartowski (Chuck) & Caroline Forbes (Vampire Diaries) vs. Kate Beckett (Castle)

Hey Guys,

Yesterday was an action packed day with two polls that swung in different directions. An early lead for Malcolm Reynolds saw the Supernatural fans needing to rally early on to find a way for Castiel to edge past the Firefly lead. Once that happens it gets tough to beat and Castiel pulled away and took the largest amount of votes in R1 so far. In the other poll Sarah Walker held a small lead over Jack Shephard for the majority of the day, yet with around 8 hours Jack managed to draw level and then sneak the win by a tiny 14 votes. Talk about close...

Today sees two titular characters do battle with woman action hero Nikita challenging reluctant hero Chuck Bartowski for a place in R2 as well as Vampire Diaries' Caroline Forbes taking on Castle's Kate Beckett in the first all-woman battle of the competition.

The prediction competition still has 42 people with perfect brackets. To see yours head HERE

For anyone new to the competition the rules are simple. Every day there will be a new set of polls between characters who are bidding to become the winner of the second STV Character Competition.

All you have to do is to vote for whichever characters are your favourite and at the end of the 24 hours whichever character has more votes will be the winner and will progress into the next round. There are three rounds before the quarter finals, semi finals and then the final...

Don't forget to tweet, facebook, google+ and spread the word about the characters and shows you love to try and boost your chances of winning.

All that is left to say, is let the battles commence...
