00:00Back in the workroom, I've just sent DeeDee home, it is sad, but I've just made top three!
00:15Holy smoke!
00:17I am a finalist!
00:20I'm a finalist, I'm a finalist, I'm a finalist!
00:26Me Mealicious, out! Huge congrats to the top three, love you all!
00:31Do you know what, 20 years old?
00:33That is insane!
00:35Yes, in the beginning I did find her a little bit annoying, but I was extremely annoying when I was a 20 year old.
00:44So after I accepted that, DeeDee's such a kind, sweet, talented person that it is sad to see her go.
00:50Absolutely incredible!
00:52Wow!
00:53No hanging about, no, get that scrubbed out!
00:55Absolutely incredible, you shouldn't have just been that little bit more shit than me!
01:00DeeDee's just left the competition, but my god has she left her mark!
01:04Wait, I need a seat!
01:06What an absolute gorgeous, gorgeous, talented human!
01:10I love her!
01:13What demon entered you during that lip sync?
01:16I thought, take a deep breath, sellotape these little cartoons to your feet, we're on a fucking show!
01:21The sellotape around the shoes!
01:23I'll go out dancing, but my shoes aren't going anywhere!
01:26I mean, come on!
01:27I caught it!
01:28Two words!
01:30Vicky vivacious!
01:32She came in so spicy!
01:37You left such a bad taste in my mouth after episode one.
01:42You're just very sneaky.
01:46She's been sitting on that for a few weeks, hasn't she?
01:48That bitch is so mad!
01:49You could see it in her hair, it was frazzled!
01:51Frazzled with madness!
01:53That was a bloody 30-inch human unit when she walked in!
01:59She's a feisty, feisty lady!
02:01Girls, all jokes aside, three badges?
02:03Yes!
02:05You've got three now!
02:06Oh, I have one!
02:07Look who we're trying to be slick!
02:09Go on, ask me!
02:10How many you got tomorrow?
02:12One, but I'll take the fucking crown date!
02:14Come on, let's get out of the town!
02:17Come on, girls!
02:18Come on, girls!
02:19You're welcome!
02:20God, I'm a woman on a mission!
02:21You want to try to take the table with you?
02:22Go on!
02:23Right, man, pal!
02:25Ten queens are now down to three.
02:27I think there's only one way to finish such a spectacular night like this.
02:29What?
02:30The punch-up!
02:31There's only going to be one winner, and I've done the maths.
02:33And it's going to be me.
02:35Let's go, bitch!
02:37No!
02:39You dashed bastards!
02:40That crown would look gorgeous on top of this.
02:43Nice, bald head.
02:44Imagine the crown just sitting right there.
02:47Stunning.
02:48Imagine a paper bag right there.
02:50I can smell the wind.
02:52Smells like burnt fanny.
02:54And my fanny's on fire!
03:00Break it off!
03:05It's a new day in the workroom, and it feels unreal.
03:09This is it.
03:10One of us is going to win this crown and septum.
03:12What is life, girls?
03:13It's been so fun having you two here.
03:14Honestly.
03:15I just feel like it's just increased how fun the whole thing has been.
03:17Just being here with you.
03:18It's been so nice.
03:19Aww.
03:20I've been trying to keep a bit of a lid on my emotions all the way through this competition,
03:25but I am just overcome with how much love I have for these two girls that I'm with.
03:26I'm emotional today.
03:27I'm an emotional wreck.
03:28I can't believe we only met each other weeks ago.
03:29It's been amazing.
03:30The North East is going to go off.
03:31There's going to be statues.
03:32Holidays.
03:33There's going to be an orange flavoured Newcastle brown nail dedicated to you.
03:36Oh, finally!
03:37Oh my God.
03:38They're going to go crazy, aren't they?
03:39The Tyne Bridge is going to be lit up.
03:40People are going to be getting fucking mortal.
03:41Oh my God.
03:42I can't wait.
03:43Three daft Jodie bastards to the final.
03:46You're gonna win!
03:47Ha.
03:48Ha!
03:49Ha!
03:50Oh my God.
03:51That's going to go crazy, aren't they?
03:52The Tyne Bridge is going to be lit up.
03:54People are going to be getting fucking mortal.
03:55Oh my God, I can't wait.
03:56Three daft Jodie bastards to the final!
03:57I'm all ready to have a hurst, huh?
03:59Her Majesty, the now readiness had her.
04:01My smooth criminals.
04:02Eh, I am.
04:03Hello.
04:05You are a drunk.
04:06I will be, don't do you?
04:07Wow.
04:08You are a lovely girl.
04:09I'm a beautiful girl.
04:10It's so beautiful.
04:11You're a beautiful girl.
04:12That's cute.
04:13I've seen you in here.
04:14Ooh, you're a beautiful girl.
04:15Hey, hiya.
04:16Hello.
04:17You've all stolen our hearts.
04:19Now it's time to find out which one of you will steal the spotlight and be sentenced
04:25to a year of living fabulously.
04:28Are we going to court?
04:31Again?
04:32That's duty.
04:33Not again.
04:34Shoplifting, honestly.
04:36Hello, hello, hello.
04:39Hi.
04:40Hi.
04:41And then there were three.
04:42Yay.
04:43My top three queens, contragulations.
04:49Your charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent brought you to the grand finale of RuPaul's
04:53Drag Race UK.
04:54Wow.
04:55Wow.
04:56Wow.
04:57Wow.
04:58Wow.
04:59But if you want to snatch the crown, honey, you're going to have to mop it like it's hot.
05:05Ooh.
05:06Wow.
05:07For this week's final maxi challenge, you'll write and record your own lyrics, and you'll
05:12be starring as sexy cat burglars in a music video for Spotlight.
05:17The Remix.
05:18The Remix.
05:19Purr.
05:20Music video.
05:21Yes.
05:22Hashtag Drag Race UK.
05:24I can't wait to put my little cheeky vest in her iconic roots on in Spotlight.
05:28I was born for the spotlight.
05:30And later, you'll learn all the right moves with choreographer, Claudemar Netto.
05:35Oh, my God.
05:37And when you're not planning your heist, each of you will sit down and spill the tea with
05:44Michelle Visage and me.
05:45Wow.
05:46Amazing.
05:47Now, I will leave you with these words of wisdom.
05:54Coats are for shoplifting.
06:00Racers, start your engines, and may the best drag queen win.
06:08It's so exciting to do this.
06:09I get to dance, perform, lip-sync, write my own lyrics, be a pop star.
06:15This is the first music video of the UK Drag Race.
06:19Amazing.
06:20This is quintessential Michael Moroli, and I'm here for it.
06:24Should we have a listen?
06:25Yes, come on.
06:26Yes, let's listen to the song.
06:27Oh, my God.
06:28Three, two, one.
06:29It's crazy to be featuring on a RuPaul track, especially this remix.
06:40It's wild.
06:41So, girls, what's your inspiration behind your lyrics?
06:44I mean, mine's just very much why the hell I deserve this crown.
06:48It's very me.
06:49It's snap.
06:50It's going to be very short, is it?
06:52I just want to put my personality in it.
06:56I want people to skip the song so they can put the Tamara there song.
06:59You know?
07:00You want that there.
07:01What about you, Jean-Jean?
07:02I think mine's just going to be ridiculous.
07:04A little trip to the deli counter, name some pork products, have a laugh, leave.
07:08That's my plan.
07:09I am not the drag queen that is going to come out with some sort of fierce, snappy verse.
07:14That's just not my personality.
07:17I just want to be about being unapologetically myself.
07:21Yeah.
07:22This is about me finding the spotlight.
07:24Boom.
07:25I want to be like a strong rapstress, hitting the mark, basically bragging throughout the song.
07:33I don't know how to put it into words.
07:36That's the challenge.
07:42Hello.
07:43There she is.
07:44Here I am.
07:45Ginger Johnson.
07:46Look at you.
07:47Here you are.
07:48Three Rue Peter badges.
07:49Which one are you most proud of?
07:51The Snatch Game.
07:52Barbara Cart.
07:53Yeah.
07:54So silly.
07:56In fact, as I look at you now, you're younger than Ginger Johnson.
08:00Oh, yeah.
08:01I could see that you're younger than Ginger Johnson.
08:03I have a strange relationship with Ginger.
08:05I used to think that we were very separate people.
08:07But the line has blurred now.
08:09And that's because I'm not so afraid of my queerness as I used to be.
08:14Where does that fear come from?
08:15I grew up in quite a rural place.
08:17And I didn't have any kind of queer people around me that I knew of.
08:21And that affected me because it felt like something I had to hide.
08:26How old were you when you left?
08:2818, when I went to uni.
08:29When I came to London after I'd been at university, I was suddenly thrust into a place where everything
08:36gay was available.
08:37I was carrying a lot of shame.
08:39And I was in a really self-destructive period in my life.
08:43When I was sort of approaching 30, there was a time when I didn't think I was going to get that far.
08:49But then I found pride.
08:53And pride is just so important to me when I was able to recognize that this is the life that I've got.
09:01I've got to make the most of it.
09:03My goodness, still in our culture, shame is such a big part of it.
09:07Who's your support back home now?
09:10I live with my partner and my two little cats.
09:13I'm very, very blessed in the life that I have at the moment.
09:16I'm so proud of you.
09:18Thank you so much for being so kind and so creative in this competition.
09:22But before we let you go, we've got one more thing.
09:25It's not a mini-challenge, no.
09:27I have an eyeliner in this pocket.
09:29No.
09:36Hiya.
09:37Hi, Ben.
09:38These are my things.
09:39Hi, Ben.
09:40Hi.
09:41Hi.
09:42How beautiful you two are.
09:43Gorgeous.
09:44Ben, as you can see, there are three Rue Peter badges there.
09:49Oh, my God!
09:50Yeah!
09:53I won the Snatch Game.
09:54Yeah!
09:55I knew it.
09:56I mean, I thought, like, you'll either go home first or last.
10:01But I'm glad that it's last.
10:04Are you surprised by that?
10:05No.
10:06Absolutely not.
10:07Like, you're such a powerhouse.
10:08I'm so determined and driven to do what you want to do to make your life better, to make our lives better.
10:13There aren't enough words.
10:15I love you.
10:16I love you, too.
10:17Never do this again.
10:20Why is that?
10:21Why is that?
10:22I did not, like, being away from, like, no contact, nothing for weeks.
10:27I'm just so proud.
10:28But yeah, I just want you back.
10:30Thank you for this.
10:32Thank you so much.
10:34You two are lovely.
10:35Couldn't I come with me?
10:36Yes!
10:37Go on.
10:38Go enjoy.
10:39See you later.
10:40Bye.
10:41Nice to meet you, Ben.
10:42I love that moment.
10:43Yeah.
10:45Hello.
10:46Hello.
10:47Hello.
10:48Hi.
10:49Look, it's you.
10:50You got three Rue Peter badges there.
10:53Which one meant the most?
10:55Honestly, the makeover.
10:57Hearing Peter's story.
10:58The struggle and that I got to give him.
11:01That little moment that meant so much to him.
11:03I think that is your moment in this journey.
11:06Amazing journey you've had.
11:08You live in Grand Canaria.
11:09Yeah.
11:10Why did you leave Newcastle?
11:12I was so terrified to tell my parents that I was gay.
11:15As soon as I turned 16, that I ran away.
11:17And I got into a gay housing project for gay youth.
11:19In Grand Canaria?
11:20No, in Newcastle.
11:21Okay.
11:22I didn't move to Grand Canaria until I was like 22.
11:23Okay.
11:24So you left your home instead of coming out.
11:27Yeah.
11:28And wasn't your family like, hi, where are you?
11:32Sorry.
11:33It's the biggest regret of my life because we spoke about it as adults.
11:40And they just loved me conditionally and they were waiting for me to tell them.
11:43But I was so terrified that they'd reject me that I pushed them away and I didn't speak to them for all those years.
11:50To say I'm gay just wasn't done, especially where I'm from.
11:54It's a working class men's town.
11:57We've come a long way.
11:58But the truth is a lot of those old value systems are still in place.
12:01Yeah.
12:02You're talking about the rough and tumble manly side of the Northeast.
12:05How important is it for you to be representing a different side of the Northeast?
12:09It's so important.
12:10All three of us are from the Northeast.
12:12Cheryl Cole is from where I'm from.
12:14When she blew up, everyone just was rallying around her.
12:17And this is going to be the same thing.
12:19And this means everything that I can show you can be gay, be out, be proud and fabulous.
12:24Well, you have to fight, fight, fight for this love.
12:30Who's supporting you back in Grand Canaria?
12:35I have my partner, Philip.
12:36How long?
12:37Fifteen years.
12:38Wow.
12:39Oh my gosh.
12:40I love it.
12:41But we have one more thing.
12:43Yeah.
12:44Hello, hello, hello.
12:48Oh my God.
12:50No.
12:54How did you do this?
12:55How did you do this?
12:56How did you do this?
13:00Hello, Philip.
13:01Hello, RuPaul.
13:02So are you surprised?
13:04Not even slightly.
13:05No.
13:06Like I literally have been so proud of him from singing in his tracksuit.
13:09I just want to cry.
13:10Singing in his tracksuit with no makeup on to this day.
13:13He's been a star in my eyes.
13:15Oh God.
13:18And I hear Ireland in there?
13:19I'm Irish, yeah.
13:20Yeah.
13:21So did you, you met in England?
13:22In Grand Canaria.
13:23I was 23.
13:24Yeah.
13:25I stole the best years of his tyres.
13:26Yeah.
13:28Michael, what is it like for you to see Philip?
13:31I'm blown away.
13:32We've always said, imagine just being the final drag race.
13:37You get to see it.
13:38I know.
13:39Look, look at these people.
13:40They're my new friends and bubbly.
13:42You'd better make them win it.
13:45Well, you know, to have come this far, honestly, you are a star and I am so proud of you.
13:51Really.
13:53Good luck, kiddo.
13:55Good luck.
13:56Very much.
13:57Thanks, Philip.
13:58Nice to meet you.
13:59Pleasure to meet you guys.
14:00I love you both.
14:02What are you doing here?
14:03There she is.
14:04Oh my God.
14:05Wow.
14:06So sweet.
14:07It's so lovely.
14:08Hello.
14:09Well, look what the cat dragged in.
14:12Meow, meow.
14:13Tomorrow, Thomas.
14:14Hello, babe.
14:15Hello, babe.
14:16Did you expect to be here?
14:19Yeah.
14:20That is fair.
14:21That is fair.
14:22No, you said I didn't.
14:24I remember not watching drag race for so long because I knew I would be a drag queen like that.
14:30Because I was always scared, like, I want to be a dancer.
14:32So then obviously with that, well, I needed to act masculine in an audition room.
14:36So I never let myself watch it because I was like, I know for a fine fact, I'm going to come out in a wig in heels and I'm going to be like, Tamara's here, you know.
14:45And then I just thought, fuck that.
14:47Like, life was too short to just be holding back.
14:49And you've got such a great sense of humor.
14:51Where does that come from?
14:52I think it is like my family.
14:53Like, we're all just so open.
14:55We have a laugh.
14:56So, my mum's like, where the fuck have we got you two from?
14:59Me and my sister.
15:00Because we're like mixed up.
15:01Uh-huh.
15:02Oh, Sarah loved to fish it.
15:06And I was fucking like,
15:10Hilarious.
15:11She used to play on her bikes.
15:12I used to be fucking in the little cars where my nails hurt.
15:15In the little windmill.
15:16Yeah, yes, yes.
15:17And me dad, bless him, right?
15:18He was just looking.
15:19He was like, he went to me, mam.
15:20This isn't right, you know.
15:21My mam went, oh, shut the fuck up, jail.
15:23Grow out of it.
15:26You grew into it.
15:27I grew into it.
15:28Look at you now in the top three, literally.
15:31And who's your biggest support back home?
15:34I mean, all my family really, but definitely my mam.
15:36She is, bless her.
15:38And she'll be so, like, she'll be, I feel emotional.
15:41But she will just be so proud.
15:43She will.
15:44You've got to get all emotional.
15:45This is the time where the emotions come out.
15:47Because you've worked so hard.
15:49Yeah.
15:50So hard.
15:51And I still can't believe it.
15:52And before we let you go, we've got one more thing.
15:55Yes.
15:58Hi.
15:59Hello, Sharon.
16:00Hi.
16:01Now, can you believe your kid has made it this far in our competition?
16:09Are you surprised by that?
16:10I'm not surprised.
16:11I'm over the moon.
16:12Wow.
16:13Well, you are such a role model for mothers to allow this child to blossom.
16:17When did you first recognize that you had something special on your hands?
16:21I would say when you used to wear my tights.
16:22To go to nursery under your nation's school uniform.
16:23To go to nursery?
16:24Yeah.
16:25The tights were underneath the school clothes.
16:26Oh, my gosh.
16:27Sharon, is there anything you'd like to say to Tamara?
16:28No.
16:29No.
16:30No.
16:31No.
16:32No.
16:33No.
16:34No.

16:49No.
16:50No.
16:51Fairchild.
16:52No.
16:53No.
16:54No.
16:57Sharon, is there anything you'd like to say to Tamara?
16:58Aww.
16:59Yeah, lots.
17:00Rada, could she go on the camera?
17:01Yes, that was a parent.
17:02Good luck, I hope you win.
17:03Come on and get that crap, baby.
17:05Aw.
17:06That's lovely.
17:07I can't believe you are here.
17:08I love you.
17:09I love you, too.
17:10Good luck.
17:12Go get me bottle of wine, now.
17:14Well, thank you so much.
17:17Thank you for sharing all of your joy. It's been such a pleasure. All right

19:48There we go, that was much better much much much better tomorrow. Let's get you in. I want to see those legs
20:03I want to see all of it. You have to tell me if a ball pops out, you know
20:08Let's go
20:10I just feel very much in my moment. This is what I'm talking about. I'm a dancer. Of course. I'm good at choreography
20:26There you go
20:41Michael let's get you in so I want you to imagine that you're trying to escape this maze of lasers. Here we go
20:48Shut down the lens. I am living my Catherine Zia Jones fantasy entrapment. Keep it nice and smooth. Mission impossible
20:55I mean, come on. All right. Give me a nice deep plie
21:00Who is Nicole Scherzinger when Tamara Thomas is in the room?
21:05Ginger three two one go
21:09Stay in that middle lane. There you go. Keep going. Keep going
21:15It's like Wallace and Gromit. I think the other two are in Mission Impossible, but I'm in Wallace and Gromit
21:20On to the next one. Here we go. It is really fun doing the music video
21:24It all moves so fast
21:26Can you be more testing those eyes eyes laser beams light spotlights? I'm like
21:31Get your heart pump. I'm just mad
21:33That's exactly what I want. There's a thousand cameras a thousand shots. Okay, I'm gonna do one more in the study cam from every angle
21:38And again down that camera can you get lower for me so we get the hair in there we go
21:42Even though we are knackered getting to live these pop star fantasies out is mind-blowing
21:48And you're done
21:52Love it. Love it. Love it. Love it. Love it. I cannot wait to see the final product. This is gonna be everything
21:58Well done ladies. Thank you so much for how hard you all worked today. I'm so proud of you all. Good luck tomorrow
22:04All right
22:16This is it. It's the last day we're walking this runway. I feel emotional. I feel exhausted
22:22But my god, I wouldn't change it for the world. Can you believe it's the final? No, I can't my feet can
22:31What the flying cat is gonna happen
22:38Ladies should we play fashion photo review? Yeah toot and boo. Yeah, so who is your top two of the season? What outfit?
22:45All my bikinis were just gorgeous. I was just trying to think which one of your bikinis was my favorite
22:52I feel like Banksy's skiing one you know was one of my favorites. Oh the leopard print. Yeah
22:56Is that the one that you got sent home in? No, she was safe that week. Was that the kickoff outfit? Yes. I knew it was memorable
23:03She didn't go home. She just went outside for 10 minutes
23:08Who wore some of the boots? I mean Naomi's design challenge
23:15Tiny little pussy strap
23:17I loved it. She's like yo yo I've made this yeah
23:22So we've known each other a little while now. Mm-hmm be honest
23:26What were your first impressions? I thought Tamara was a big loudmouthed bitch
23:33Did you really? I was like oh she is gonna be a lot and I wasn't wrong
23:39But you weren't a bitch you are lovely so you get away with it. Yeah, thank you. Thank you. Look I'm aware that
23:45I'm loud and I can be intimidating when people first meet me
23:49But when you get to know me you realize what a stupid silly bastard. I really am
23:53And then Michael I remember seeing you and thinking I was convinced before I came in that I was gonna be the oldest
23:58For some reason I just had it in my mind that I was gonna be the oldest one of them when I saw you I was like
24:02Fine
24:04You know when you first walked in I did think like oh, who's she? I thought ah she's not gonna go far
24:12Did you? I really did. What made you think that?
24:15Just the sequin two piece. I'm on your job
24:1810 weeks ago ginger seemed like a deer in headlights when we did that club challenge
24:23Look at the evolution. She is a juggernaut a drag
24:28That song makes it sound like a big massive tank doesn't it?
24:34You bless that man she's so lovely
24:36And then we didn't really spend much time together did we?
24:39No
24:39Until for the first couple of weeks
24:41And then the more I got to know you I was like I'm obsessed
24:44Michael's first impression of me was that he didn't think I was gonna go very far in the competition
24:48That was also my first impression of Michael
24:51Like I think you're one of the nicest people I've ever met and we get on so well
24:54We're like kindred spirits
24:55We are
24:55Maybe we both didn't have that ruthlessness that some of the other girls had on the first day
25:00But it served us well in the long run
25:02Who am I?
25:04I'm not gonna lie week one you left a really bad taste in my mouth
25:10I've got it in my seats
25:14Is there anything that we would have changed whilst being here?
25:16Oh god my tights
25:19You can't beat the northern banter like we've just cried and cried
25:25It keeps hitting me like in waves and to share it with you two has just been amazing
25:31I get moments I do though I just get a little like
25:33Stop that
25:34Honestly though I couldn't I'm so glad it's us
25:37I am though
25:38It's so nice that there's three Georgies in the final
25:44Gals this is it
25:46But I want this with every fiber of my being
25:50Welcome to the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race UK

31:01Out of Beyonce's Crazy and Love video
31:03I hear she's a Sesame Street Walker
31:05Don't make me laugh, girl
31:09I think that the judges look really happy to see me
31:13And I'm just living my best life
31:14And do you know what?
31:15I feel bloody gorgeous
31:16Like I genuinely feel you

31:22Banksy
31:22Now that's sexy
31:25You know what?
31:26When I was eliminated
31:27I said I was only going to walk the runway one last time
31:29And now I'm doing it again
31:31And that's great
31:32Anti-meme
31:33Ant, get it?
31:36Yes
31:36Yeah
31:36Stomping down this runway
31:38I am serving goth chic Mugler

31:43Some of these girls really are the shit
31:46And I'm the fly going all around it, babe
31:48But I'm the shit as well
31:50Vicky vivacious
31:52Is that some kind of muff?
31:56I am serving you a Marilyn Monroe fantasy
31:58Head-to-toe diamond glitz and glamour
32:03She's been a pain in the topaz
32:05The judges are smiling ear to ear
32:08It feels incredible walking this runway one last time
32:11I have had the time of my life
32:14Don't feed the ducks and don't fist the swans
32:17Kate Butch
32:21A hat
32:22Oh, oh yes I am wearing a hat
32:24My looks throughout this competition
32:28Have been on a sliding scale
32:29From meh to fine
32:31And today I'm serving the judges
32:33What I wanted to have served them
32:34For the past ten weeks
32:36And I'm just having a camp all time
32:37I heard on the streets

32:48She get that at Bloomingdale's
32:49I think I've finally worked out how to do my makeup

32:55And I'm showing Michelle that I'm not just a meh after all
32:59Didi-licious
33:02I love how she went out of the way to make sure her elbows were warm
33:07This is the final evolution of Didi
33:12I've taken a bath in all these gems and rhinestones
33:16This is fierce drag
33:19These have always brought me luck
33:20Roo's just dying
33:24Because I've got my big tits on show
33:26As always
33:27This is one of my dream looks
33:35And I'm so happy I get to wear it down the runway
33:37In front of Roo
33:38And now our top three queens

33:49She's matadorable
33:53I am serving matador chic
33:57It's a little understated number that's absolutely encrusted with crystals and coins
34:02It's gorgeous
34:04Oh no
34:05Thank you, thank you
34:06That's great
34:07I'm sad to be walking the runway for the very last time
34:12When the judges are there in front of you
34:14You just feel like the center of the universe
34:17And I'm really, really going to miss that
34:20Muchas gracias
34:22Muchas, a lot of ass
34:25Yeah
34:25Michael Marulli
34:30All hail the Ice Queen
34:34You know, I still haven't forgiven her for sinking the Titanic
34:37I am serving you gorgeous, over-the-top drag
34:43When it comes to finale eleganza, I've got this in the bag
34:47I'd like to take her up the shard
34:49Yes
34:50I am dripping in jewels
34:52Everything is just off the chart
34:54Brought it to the runway this entire competition
34:56I'm not going to stop now
34:58You know she's got an A in her origami exams
35:00I'm soaking this in
35:03I'm taking every second
35:04And I just feel incredible
35:06Nothing in the world will ever beat this feeling
35:09Tamara Thomas
35:14Dial H for Hartlepool
35:19The final runway
35:22Oh my God
35:24I'm doing old Hollywood
35:26I've got the most clothes on I've ever worn this full competition
35:28Bitch, I look good
35:30She's dripping
35:31All over the carpet
35:33Yeah
35:33The gown is bedeweled
35:35You couldn't get one more diamond on this gown if you tried
35:37It's rich
35:38I'm not rich yet
35:39But it's gorgeous
35:40Take two loofahs into the shower
35:42I really just feel proud
35:47It's me being proud tonight
35:49Of this full journey that I've been on
35:52And for the judges to just sit back and be like
35:54There she is
35:55You know, it's such a gorgeous feeling
35:57My top three queens
36:02Tonight we celebrate the power, passion, and perseverance that has delivered each of you to this incredible moment
36:13Now
36:14It's time for the judges' final critiques
36:17Starting with Ginger Johnson
36:20Ginger, you made your fierce impression right out of the box
36:24We were all fawning over that beautiful floral number
36:27And learning that you made every single piece apart from one was even more incredible
36:31I've loved this season
36:32Because it was so hard to know who the front runners were going to be
36:36And to be honest, I didn't really notice you till halfway through
36:39In that musical, when you stepped out of the cow as Daisy
36:42That was like Ginger Johnson stepping out for me
36:46And then, bam!
36:47The mirror, mirror, look ma, I got no arms dress
36:50I will remember that in my nightmares and dreams
36:55And even Barbara Cartland, so left-filled
36:57Love under the Parsons dong
36:59Who would go for her?
37:00Only Ginger
37:01And then in the music video, you were yourself
37:04The silly sausage lady
37:05That's what makes you you
37:06And if someone had said trousers for the grand finale, Eleganza
37:10You'd have thought, really?
37:11But God, this works for you
37:13You look like some sort of society hostess
37:15Holding a charity gala with a Spanish theme
37:18Throughout this competition
37:22You have tickled us
37:24You have surprised us
37:25And you've shown us your aesthetic
37:28In ways that we really couldn't have imagined
37:30I've had the best time
37:33Just the sheer challenge of it
37:36The self-doubt that I have a lot of the time
37:38And that's why I chose to do the Matador tonight
37:40Because the bullfight is
37:42It's a bit like my relationship with myself
37:44Yeah
37:45It can sometimes be beautiful
37:46But it's ultimately quite brutal
37:49And like bullfighting
37:52That relationship belongs in the past
37:54Yeah
37:54It's very impressive
37:56Thank you
37:56Thank you
37:57Up next, Michael Marulli
38:00In the beginning, I almost felt a little bit of
38:02Why isn't anybody heaping praise on me?
38:05And then as you started listening to critiques of other queens
38:08Not just yourself
38:08You are taking it all in
38:10Wanting to be better
38:12And that's amazing
38:13In life, full stop
38:15I mean, we really don't know
38:17What you're going to be wearing
38:18When you come down that runway
38:19Holiday looks
38:20You come out as a human postcard
38:22Heart-ons
38:23You are a big black heart
38:25It's engaging
38:26It's exciting
38:26It's what drag should be
38:28You know, you said it in your own verse
38:29In the music video
38:30New school, old school
38:31I bridge that gap
38:32And you do
38:34And let's not forget the roast
38:36Wow
38:36Alan is so gay
38:38He could sit on a crayon
38:40And tell you what colour it is
38:41I was laughing on the way home
38:44About some of your jokes
38:45That's how funny you were
38:47And then of course
38:47The makeover that literally stole the show
38:50And how emotional it was
38:51And tonight on the runway
38:52Wow
38:53You know, you came round the corner
38:54And you took our breath away
38:55It is so spectacular
38:57It looks like Estonia's entry into Eurovision
39:00It's just been such a joy to watch you
39:05This journey for you is what little kids
39:08Around the world will be inspired by
39:11And in the music video
39:14You were keeping up with the rest
39:15What was your favourite part of making the music video?
39:18It was just so good
39:19I was like, I can't cope with this competition anymore
39:21It's like someone's went into my head
39:22Yeah
39:23At 15 and went, one day
39:24All of this is going to happen
39:25Yeah, and you're going to do more
39:27I literally feel like I've come
39:29Into my whole self being here
39:32And I cannot thank you enough
39:34Up next, Tamara Thomas
39:37So I fell in love with you the minute I saw you in the club
39:42You are such a performer
39:44Just magnetic
39:45You just have that personality that draws everybody in
39:49How great was you in that music video?
39:51I went on to Wikipedia to see if Dua Lipa had a twin who lived in Hartlepool
39:55Some of your gifts were more obvious than the others
40:01You know, from the very beginning
40:02There was the beauty, the looks
40:04What was less obvious was your personality
40:07When you open your gob
40:08Suddenly, it's like, wow, who's that?
40:11That Robin Williams in Snatch Game
40:13I had no idea what was going on there
40:17You already did it out of my head?
40:20But, ultimately, it made me laugh
40:22I have no idea why
40:23But it did make me laugh
40:24And this look is just beautiful
40:27This is classic
40:28I love that you chose to do a black glove with a nude dress
40:31It is fabulous
40:33There's something that radiates from you
40:35You want to have your own television show
40:37It should be worldwide
40:38I'm not sure if the rest of the world would understand what you're saying
40:40We've got subtitles, goodbye
40:42Now, yesterday, you got to spend time with Sharon, your mother
40:46Was she amazed that you made it so far?
40:49Yeah, Farrah, come on
40:50She was, like, worried in case how I would take it if I didn't do well
40:53Because, obviously, I am really passionate about everything that I throw myself in for
40:57Listen, she needn't have worried
40:59Because you have been such a star
41:01And fun
41:02Thank you beyond words
41:04Couldn't say thank you for, like, wow
41:06I've had the best, best, best time
41:08My queens
41:10Many sweet, sensitive souls watch our show
41:14Looking for clues on how to navigate their lives
41:17With them in mind, I want to ask you
41:20Ginger Johnson
41:21If you could travel back in time
41:23What advice would you give to four-year-old Donald?
41:28Donald
41:33You are a strange little boy
41:36And you are going to grow up to be a very strange old woman
41:41You are creative
41:45And you like to make things
41:48And sometimes when life isn't going well
41:51That's going to flip round on you
41:53And you're going to feel like destroying things
41:55But you don't need to do that
41:58Just keep making
41:59And one day
42:02You're going to be here
42:04It's going to be the best thing that's ever happened to you
42:07Right
42:09Thank you
42:11Michael Maroui
42:13What advice would you give
42:16To eight-year-old
42:18Michael?
42:20No
42:20Still a daft little bastard there
42:23You're going to spend a lot of your life
42:30In fear
42:31Of who you are
42:34Please don't waste that time
42:36Because who you are
42:37Is more than enough
42:39But the one thing you'll do throughout your life
42:43Is dream
42:44Never stop
42:46Because one day
42:48They're all going to come true
42:50Just be yourself
42:53And live out loud
42:53Unapologetically
42:54I love it
42:57Thank you
42:58Oh my god
42:59I'm sorry
43:00Tamara Thomas
43:03What advice would you give
43:05To ten-year-old
43:07Thomas
43:08Shut up
43:12First of all
43:14Thomas
43:14Stop dressing up as Vicky Pollard
43:16When you're ten-year-old
43:18Going into a fancy dress shop
43:19Not even buying the outfit
43:21Never stop being yourself
43:23We're born with crazy bones
43:27People are going to raise eyebrows
43:29Let them
43:30I'll paint them on
43:31And I'll keep painting them on
43:35So keep doing you
43:37Lovely
43:39One final question
43:41What would it mean to you
43:44To be crowned the UK's next drag race superstar
43:47Ginger Johnson
43:50Sorry
43:51Being here
43:57Has just been a dream of mine
44:00For such a long time
44:03And sometimes I have dared to dream
44:06That maybe I could win
44:08And now
44:10I get to do the most amazing thing
44:14Which is
44:14Find a new dream
44:16And that's just
44:17The biggest gift
44:20I've ever been given
44:20Because
44:22When I let myself think big like that
44:26I just
44:26My life opens up in front of me
44:29And I feel that happening now
44:31Standing here
44:32So thank you
44:36For everything
44:37Thank you
44:39Thank you
44:40Michael Maruli
44:43To take this title
44:45Would be
44:46Validation
44:48The blood
44:49Sweat
44:49Tears
44:50Getting changed
44:51On top of beer barrels
44:52In rooms stinking of piss
44:54It was all worth it
44:55And it would mean
44:57The world
44:58To win this title
44:59It would be an honour
45:00And this opportunity
45:01This entire thing
45:03Has been
45:03Beyond words
45:04And it would just be
45:05The cherry
45:06On the cake
45:07Tamara Thomas
45:10It would just mean
45:12All of the hardware
45:13It would just prove
45:15You can do it
45:15Oh just
45:16The winner
45:19You know
45:19Just give me the
45:20Give me the crown

45:25The process
45:26I couldn't have imagined
45:27Anything better
45:28And to meet these
45:29Angels of the norm
45:30Love you
45:31Thank you
45:34I know what it takes
45:38To be yourself
45:39In this world
45:40Where it seems
45:41That so many people
45:42Are against
45:43Our light shining
45:44And you look

46:48To learn

46:59Forgotten about
47:00Some of the things
47:00That they mentioned
47:01You know
47:01Yeah
47:01I knew the dress
47:02With no arms
47:03Would come back
47:03Yeah

47:06Might be mentioned
47:07Again
47:07Oh and listen
