00:00:06I have just survived my fourth lip-sync and have secured a spot in the top four.
00:00:21Ding dong, the witch is dead.
00:00:23Is that what she wrote?
00:00:24No, that's what I'm saying.
00:00:25Oh, here she is.
00:00:26I've sent home a quarter of the cast, by the way.
00:00:28Do the math, it's 12 girls, divide that by four.
00:00:31Got three.
00:00:32See?
00:00:33You're a fabulous top four, but Pixie was robbed.
00:00:38Very rude.
00:00:39Very rude.
00:00:40Oh, I love her so much.
00:00:42Honestly, what a shared growth in this competition has been.
00:00:47Next level.
00:00:48The Pixie I knew, nine, ten weeks ago, is not the Pixie that has just written that vile message with
00:00:56that horrible handwriting on the wall.
00:00:58She's an absolute dreamboat.
00:01:00It is such a bittersweet moment because I love Pixie and as much as I want her here, I want
00:01:07the top four.
00:01:08And what a tough week to go.
00:01:11Peppa, congrats, baby!
00:01:12Oh, my God.
00:01:13I don't know what came up with me the minute that song played.
00:01:16I just fell straight into it.
00:01:18Oh, my God.
00:01:18Were you literally split it into it?
00:01:19Naturally.
00:01:20Honestly, I hope that no screws are inside of my body right now.
00:01:25She's a pale dude.
00:01:26I deserve to be here.
00:01:28I fought so hard to get here.
00:01:31We are the top four.
00:01:32Say that again!
00:01:34We are the top four!
00:01:39Not only am I in the final of RuPaul's Drag Race UK, I am with some of the most amazing
00:01:46and talented people I've ever met.
00:01:48Shall we have a congratulations for my fellow full badge Manchester Queen, Danny Beard?
00:01:56Girls, I am putting my tests off.
00:02:01So you should be.
00:02:01I've got four old badges.
00:02:04That's a lot of metal to take down to the conversion shop.
00:02:07And this is putting me in a really good place going into the final.
00:02:10Pinch me, Mary.
00:02:11I'm in a dream.
00:02:12You better watch next week.
00:02:14I'm doing what it takes.
00:02:16But it's not over yet!
00:02:20Come back to that door, because there's one last fight.
00:02:24Listen, I'm no Carol Vorderman, but the maps on this are this.
00:02:27Twelve queens have become four, and there's only one winner.
00:02:31So you go figure out what needs to happen.
00:02:33There's only one crown!
00:02:35Oh no!
00:02:36Do you like my crown, ladies?
00:02:37I'm trigger!
00:02:38I deserve my place in this final because I am amazing.
00:02:44It's the jewel of the horns.
00:02:47The crown needs to go on its head.
00:02:49Immediately.
00:02:53Put it on me head.
00:02:55She left her dildo.
00:02:56The only thing that she leaves.
00:02:58How stiff is this competition?
00:03:00It's very, very stiff.
00:03:02Honestly doctor, I was just doing the gardening and I fell on it!
00:03:13This bird lady's had a glow up.
00:03:17New day in the workroom.
00:03:19And it's the grand finale.
00:03:21I'm here!
00:03:22It's real!
00:03:23Touch me!
00:03:24Manchester slaying!
00:03:26My God!
00:03:26Ryan!
00:03:27Do you know what?
00:03:28It's about time we had some Manchester talent and I am repping two cities that don't get on.
00:03:34And I am uniting them in my art.
00:03:38Is that art?
00:03:39Well, no, not really.
00:03:40Art with F.
00:03:42You know what guys?
00:03:44We are at the point in the competition where, let's be honest, it's going to come down to how you're
00:03:49performing this week.
00:03:50Yeah.
00:03:51We're the top four and we're four different forces to be reckoned with.
00:03:56And really and truly, looking around, everyone has different strengths.
00:04:00So it's going to be a very interesting pick.
00:04:02I am ready to give these judges the shock of their life.
00:04:06I feel like we've all made a bit of an effort.
00:04:08You've got feathers.
00:04:10You've put stones on a joke shop suit.
00:04:12You've got no hair.
00:04:14You've got no hair.
00:04:15I'm...
00:04:16Pat Butcher.
00:04:17Oh!
00:04:22Oh!
00:04:23Girl!
00:04:23Her Majesty did it already and it had herses.
00:04:28My top kitty girls.
00:04:30Hi.
00:04:31This competition is on fire.
00:04:33And the realness just got realer.
00:04:36So, if you want to snatch that crown, you better sissy that walk.
00:04:41And don't call me mother.
00:04:44Unless you say it like you mean it, Tina.
00:04:50Realness.
00:04:50That's all re-songs.
00:04:51Sissy that walk.
00:04:54Hello, hello, hello.
00:04:56Hi.
00:04:58My top four queens.
00:05:00Hi.
00:05:03Condragulations for making it to the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race UK.
00:05:06Thanks.
00:05:10Well, this is it.
00:05:11Your last chance to show off your charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent.
00:05:16So, for this week's final Maxi Challenge, you'll take turns stealing the spotlight
00:05:21as you perform a mega mix of Drag Race anthems.
00:05:27And by Drag Race anthems, I mean my songs.
00:05:31Obviously.
00:05:31Oh, my God.
00:05:33Oh, my God.
00:05:33Yes.
00:05:34I have been waiting for a challenge where I can do something that I am good at.
00:05:39And I can't wait to light that stage up.
00:05:41Come on.
00:05:41Let's go.
00:05:42Hashtag Drag Race UK.
00:05:47Now is the time to take total control of your destiny, darling, as you write and record your own lyrics.
00:05:53And then, master the moves of choreographer, Kladomar Neto.
00:06:00Now, Black Peppa, your solo is Sissy That Walk.
00:06:04Ah!
00:06:05Mm-hmm.
00:06:06Chatter Gorgeous.
00:06:08The Realness.
00:06:10Oh.
00:06:11It's so ironic because there's nothing real about me at all.
00:06:15Donny Beard.
00:06:17Your solo is Call Me Mother.
00:06:20Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na.
00:06:22Yes, thanks.
00:06:22And Jambra's blonde.
00:06:25Kitty girl.
00:06:27Okay.
00:06:29And in between the hustle and bustle, you'll each sit down and spill the tea with Michelle Visage and me.
00:06:37And tomorrow on the main stage, we are going to crown ourselves a winner, baby.
00:06:43Hi!
00:06:46This is our last moment to grab the spotlight, to say, look at me, I want that crown.
00:06:54The pressures, huh?
00:06:55Racers, start your engines and may the best drag queen win.
00:07:00Yeah!
00:07:04I've literally got case bombs.
00:07:06Oh my God, I'm going to eat this up.
00:07:09You're going to be great.
00:07:10This is going to be so good.
00:07:11Sissy That Walk is such a big RuPaul song.
00:07:15So the fact that I get to have my bit in, it's so exciting.
00:07:20This is going to be insane.
00:07:22But this is like a proper dancing routine.
00:07:26Like, how are you feeling about that?
00:07:30Made up, me.
00:07:32This is a great song, but my God, it is fast.
00:07:35If I'm in that rehearsal studio doing...
00:07:38I'm going to look to her.
00:07:40I'm probably the shittest dancer, but...
00:07:42I've been pushed out of my comfort zone in other challenges and surprised myself.
00:07:46The only thing in between me and doing alright is in there.
00:07:49Do you know what? I'm not great with choreo, but I know it.
00:07:51Like, I dance all the time.
00:07:53Like, in clubs.
00:07:54And like, on nights out.
00:07:55And like, having a fun time.
00:07:57Why are you laughing at it?
00:07:57Like, it's true.
00:07:58No, because it's just funny to be like, I dance in the club.
00:08:01Like, we all dance in the club.
00:08:02But we can't be like, hey kitty girl.
00:08:06But you dance, like, you know what I mean.
00:08:08Like, when you're dancing in a club and you just relax, you get into a song.
00:08:11You let loose.
00:08:11The mindset of the club.
00:08:13It's just going to be about relaxing into it for me.
00:08:15Yeah.
00:08:15I'm keen to just see what they're going to make us do on this one.
00:08:18I know this is going to be a bigger challenge than the Rusical.
00:08:21Let us go and write our lyrics.
00:08:23Put the pen to the paper.
00:08:24Let's do it kids.
00:08:25Let us go.
00:08:28I already have some ideas in my head that I'm willing to write down on paper.
00:08:32So I just need to get this out of my head.
00:08:35This is going to be fresh.
00:08:37I think Adele probably will be giving me a call after this for these lyrics.
00:08:41I want it to be like...
00:08:45You know?
00:08:46Oh yeah.
00:08:49Hiya love.
00:08:50Look who's here.
00:08:52Oh.
00:08:52Jenny.
00:08:53Jenny Beard.
00:08:54Oh I love that shirt.
00:08:56That jumper.
00:08:57The bearded queen has made it into the top four.
00:09:01Wow.
00:09:01Thank you guys.
00:09:02What?
00:09:03No, you did it.
00:09:03You're the one who did it.
00:09:04That's the magic of this show.
00:09:06Like it's pushed me.
00:09:07And it's excited me.
00:09:08So here you are, this bearded queen.
00:09:11What's the story there?
00:09:12When I first started, I was studying club kids.
00:09:15And what I loved about their drag is they did it their way.
00:09:18Sure.
00:09:19And I was like, I'm going to do it my way.
00:09:21And now that you have been wearing wigs and doing different looks, does that open your eyes to different ways
00:09:26of how Danny Beard does drag?
00:09:28When I did that ruffles runway, I was feeling myself.
00:09:33I was crying.
00:09:35Yeah.
00:09:36It's opened my eyes is the short answer to the question.
00:09:38Good.
00:09:39I still feel very much me throughout it though.
00:09:42You have been.
00:09:42You know.
00:09:43You have confidence.
00:09:44I think that's what it is.
00:09:45Yeah.
00:09:45You have a strong sense of self, of who you are.
00:09:48Yeah.
00:09:48Where did you get that?
00:09:52When I was younger, I was really bullied.
00:09:56And it wasn't me.
00:09:58Like year eights, I don't know how old you are.
00:10:00This guy made knuckle dusters with pins and cut my face up.
00:10:06And my mum and dad moved me from Liverpool to the Wirral.
00:10:11And my mum sat me down and said, this is a fresh start.
00:10:14You can be anyone and anything you want to be now.
00:10:18And I went into that school in year nine.
00:10:20And the first kid that said to me, hey, are you gay?
00:10:21I went, yeah, and what?
00:10:24And that was it.
00:10:25Like, and that's when my confidence started growing.
00:10:27Not being afraid to be flamboyant.
00:10:29I remember my dad screaming down the stairs, we're going to a family barbecue.
00:10:32Why are you orange?
00:10:33You know what I mean?
00:10:35And I was like, you don't like me being gay.
00:10:38And he was like, no, I don't like you being orange.
00:10:43You know?
00:10:45He wanted, you're okay being gay, just not orange.
00:10:48And he's a big butch fireman.
00:10:50And listen, even in the roast last week, you did well because you trusted yourself.
00:10:56And that's because you have confidence in yourself.
00:10:58And you have done so well.
00:11:00Oh, yeah.
00:11:01What would it mean to you to be the UK's next drag superstar?
00:11:05There's never been, I don't think a contestant like me, let alone a winner like me.
00:11:09I'm a really good entertainer.
00:11:11And I'm a really nice person, actually.
00:11:13And that's what a drag race winner should be.
00:11:16Well, you have been a joy throughout this competition.
00:11:19And we will see what happens.
00:11:22Thank you, guys.
00:11:26Look who's here.
00:11:28What is set?
00:11:29Yeah.
00:11:29Jean-Béblon.
00:11:30Jean-Béblon.
00:11:31Hello, darling.
00:11:32So, you are in the top four.
00:11:36I know.
00:11:36Are you surprised by that?
00:11:37You know what?
00:11:38I'm a huge believer in visualization.
00:11:42And if you visualize it, you can manifest it.
00:11:45And I knew I could do it as long as I trusted in myself.
00:11:47And I just want to say a huge thank you to both of you for giving me the opportunity to
00:11:51grow.
00:11:53You went for every single thing.
00:11:55Everything was listened to and you put it all to good use.
00:11:58Here you are in the final four.
00:12:00Absolutely.
00:12:00Because you adapted.
00:12:01Mm-hmm.
00:12:02And that was amazing.
00:12:03Thank you so much.
00:12:04And that's really why you're here.
00:12:06And that philosophy will carry you throughout life.
00:12:10Now, you love fashion.
00:12:11Where did you get your sense of style?
00:12:13From when I was a kid, I always loved the 70s.
00:12:16My mom kept a lot of her dresses from the 70s.
00:12:19And even though my mom would always say she isn't fashionable,
00:12:21she was always in, like, a full-length gown, like, dressed in the nines.
00:12:25My mom is so strong and still full of love.
00:12:29Mm.
00:12:30What's your relationship like with her?
00:12:31Oh, I just, I just love her so much.
00:12:35She's so amazing.
00:12:38She always believed in me as a kid and always said,
00:12:41you can do whatever you want.
00:12:43Even though she didn't, we didn't see eye-to-eye whenever I came out as gay.
00:12:47Mm.
00:12:48Um, that didn't stop the love.
00:12:50It was hard for a couple of years.
00:12:52But, um, I always needed just to trust in the process
00:12:55and everything would be, would work out eventually.
00:12:57And what would it mean to you to be crowned the UK's next drag superstar?
00:13:03It would, it would mean everything to me.
00:13:06Not a lot of people in my life have ever believed in me.
00:13:08It's only, I could, I couldn't even count on one hand how many people that I have.
00:13:11Yeah.
00:13:11I mean, my group of friends, before I met them, I was, I could, I wouldn't say voodoo goose,
00:13:17and I wouldn't, like, even fart talk and poo talk would really scare me.
00:13:21Now it's, now it's a poo party.
00:13:27Well, thank you, Jambers.
00:13:29Thank you so much for this.
00:13:30To have the youth believe in me and to be able to show what I can do.
00:13:35My wildest dreams have come true.
00:13:36And thank you so much for making an amazing experience.
00:13:39Well, there's more to come.
00:13:40Yes.
00:13:41Thank you so much.
00:13:42Thanks, Jambers.
00:13:43Lots of love.
00:13:44Hey, White Salt.
00:13:46Yes.
00:13:46You'll never guess who just walked in.
00:13:48Oh, hey, Black Peppa.
00:13:50It's your girl, White Salt.
00:13:51Hi.
00:13:53Look at you up in the top four.
00:13:55Yeah.
00:13:55Look at that.
00:13:57How does it feel?
00:13:57It feels incredible, and I've fart to get here.
00:14:01You did.
00:14:02You did, baby.
00:14:04Now, the first time I saw you, we did a photo session.
00:14:08Yes.
00:14:08And you did not stay inside the box.
00:14:10And I thought, wow.
00:14:12But what has kept you from working outside the box in terms of humor and the acting?
00:14:20Do you know what I'm talking about?
00:14:21Absolutely.
00:14:22It's just that child in me has always had that doubt because my parents being like,
00:14:26no, you're not allowed to do this.
00:14:28You can't do that.
00:14:28You can't do that.
00:14:29And I feel like I still do have that little doubt in me whenever I'm faced with a challenge
00:14:33like, oh, I can't do this.
00:14:35And your family in St. Martin, did you have to leave when you came out?
00:14:40On the day when I was leaving, my mom had a chat with me.
00:14:43She was like, I came.
00:14:43Are you gay or not?
00:14:44And I was like, yeah, I am.
00:14:46She was like, have you steppard boys?
00:14:47And I was like, yes, I have.
00:14:49Then I couldn't stand up for myself the way that I am now.
00:14:52So I took off in the plane that day and never looked back.
00:14:56And I just felt liberated and I could be queer and I can live my life the way I want
00:15:00to live it.
00:15:01Do you talk to them?
00:15:02We are kind of getting somewhere now.
00:15:04And my sister, she's kept me and held me together in times when I felt like I really couldn't
00:15:10keep it together.
00:15:11And I keep remembering you have someone else on earth that really depends on you to be
00:15:15strong.
00:15:15So you cannot let them down.
00:15:17Wow.
00:15:17She's lucky to have you.
00:15:18Well, listen, that same love you have for her.
00:15:21You have to care for your inner child that exact same way.
00:15:24Life is a dance.
00:15:25And once you connect to that rhythm, which you know how to do, it's smooth sailing.
00:15:30What would it mean to you to be crowned the UK's next drag superstar?
00:15:36It, I've said before, this competition is bigger than me.
00:15:40Right now, as we speak, there's so many that can't even live the life that they want
00:15:44to live because they can't be themselves.
00:15:47I can inspire people that you can come from a position in your life where you're not proud
00:15:52of but you can take it there just by believing in yourself.
00:15:56I love that.
00:15:57Well, I think that this is just the beginning for you.
00:16:01I really do.
00:16:03Thank you so much.
00:16:04Good luck to you, my darling.
00:16:06Thank you, Black Pepper.
00:16:09Paging Dr. Chetha.
00:16:11What?
00:16:11Paging Dr. Chetha.
00:16:13I see you've been in the operating theatre.
00:16:17This was the brutality of the competition room, wasn't it?
00:16:20You know what I mean?
00:16:20You know, we spent some time in Manchester last year.
00:16:24We fell in love with Manchester.
00:16:27What do you love about Manchester?
00:16:28One of the things I've always adored about it is that we've always had such an amazing
00:16:32range of drag that happens there.
00:16:34And we've got an amazing history there.
00:16:36Hacienda and all that sort of stuff.
00:16:37Is the Hacienda still there?
00:16:39No, the Hacienda is now an apartment block.
00:16:41Oh, really?
00:16:42Because I performed at the Hacienda many years ago.
00:16:45Wow.
00:16:45I think during the Thatcher administration.
00:16:48Chetha, you in particular, when I saw you and your name on the roster, I was like,
00:16:53Chetha, in RuPaul's Drag Race.
00:16:56Why now?
00:16:57I just got to this very strange place with drag.
00:17:01I didn't know whether I even wanted to be in drag anymore.
00:17:04Mmm.
00:17:04I actually didn't expect to get a call back.
00:17:07But when I got a rundown of what was involved, I felt excited.
00:17:12And I haven't felt excited about drag for such a long time.
00:17:16You've proven you're fucking phenomenal.
00:17:18We've seen it.
00:17:19And that surprised me.
00:17:21What surprised you?
00:17:22I was surprised I've done as well as I have.
00:17:25My inner voice doesn't give me love and praise very well.
00:17:30You don't give yourself that pat on the back.
00:17:32Where did you learn that behavior?
00:17:35That's growing up a working class kid in Birmingham, I think.
00:17:38I learned, I think, not to raise my head too far up.
00:17:41Mustn't grumble.
00:17:42Mustn't grumble.
00:17:43Mustn't grumble.
00:17:44Emotions are for other people.
00:17:45I come from a family of helpers, very wonderful people, full of their kind of love.
00:17:50The challenge is to learn to parent yourself in a way that is unapologetic.
00:17:56Are you able to do that?
00:17:59I'll give it a try.
00:18:01I mean, I certainly do like the sound of my own voice sometimes, as you may have noticed.
00:18:08What would it mean to you to be the UK's next drag superstar?
00:18:12At the risk of sounding cocky, regardless of whether I take that crown or not,
00:18:19I'm going to do exactly the same thing.
00:18:22Which is go out there and be 100%, 150% totally myself and keep doing it.
00:18:29The crown would be added validation to that.
00:18:32Well, thank you so much.
00:18:34Thank you so much.
00:18:35Have a great day.
00:18:37Bye-bye.
00:18:39Hello, hello, hello, hello.
00:18:41My name is Claudemar.
00:18:43I'll be choreographing the Rue Mega Mix for this final.
00:18:45I'm, like, super excited.
00:18:47We're going to go in.
00:18:48Like, we're talking about four iconic tracks.
00:18:52We are going for gold.
00:18:54But within saying that, why not bring some dancers out for you guys?
00:18:58Come on out.
00:18:58This is Brett and Logan.
00:19:00Hey.
00:19:01Hi.
00:19:03Something's telling me that I'm going to enjoy this a little bit more than I thought.
00:19:08So, Miss Pepper, we're about to start with you.
00:19:10So, can anybody else just take a seat?
00:19:12And I'll get to you guys shortly.
00:19:14Right.
00:19:14Let's get into this.
00:19:15Let's get into this.
00:19:17Anyone who knows me knows that I always have a show, okay?
00:19:20She loves a production.
00:19:21Having dancers to really bring it together is just even better.
00:19:25This is quite intricate, so I want you to take your time to really understand every single rhythm.
00:19:29So, we're going to go dum-ti-ti.
00:19:31And that's in the hip.
00:19:32So, we go dum-ti-ti.
00:19:34From here.
00:19:35This is what Pepper does.
00:19:37From the top.
00:19:38Here we go dum-ti-ti.
00:19:40Dum-dum-dum-ti-ti.
00:19:42I am at home.
00:19:43I'm in my element.
00:19:44I am feeling everything.
00:19:45Every single move I'm getting.
00:19:47I'm like, this is perfect.
00:19:48I'm loving this.
00:19:49Ti-ti-ti.
00:19:51Ka.
00:19:52Yes!
00:19:54You are done, my lovely.
00:19:56Yes!
00:19:56Thank you so much.
00:19:58Cheddar.
00:19:59Oh.
00:20:00So, you already have plans?
00:20:01Yeah.
00:20:02Sandwich.
00:20:03Oh, my, my.
00:20:04Sandwich.
00:20:05Now I feel suddenly at home.
00:20:07I've been given choreo that's very sexy.
00:20:10It's all a little bit sexy.
00:20:11And you look at him.
00:20:12And then you do two body ripples there.
00:20:14Body and body.
00:20:16There you go.
00:20:17Yes, Cheddar.
00:20:18That is Cheddar.
00:20:19I've never danced before in my life.
00:20:20I don't know what you mean.
00:20:21And look, I'm all right with that.
00:20:23I like that.
00:20:24Like, I quite enjoy having a little bit of a moment of, you know,
00:20:27sexy dolphin.
00:20:29Let's try and see if I got all that in.
00:20:31There you go.
00:20:32There you go.
00:20:33The innuendo potentials when surrounded by lovely, gorgeous dancers.
00:20:38Thank you so much, Cheddar.
00:20:39Let's have Danny up.
00:20:41Yeah.
00:20:41Let's live in your truth.
00:20:43Go get him, girl.
00:20:43Rue says you've got to be able to master the moves.
00:20:47I'm not going to bow out now.
00:20:48I'm going to try my artist.
00:20:50Here we go.
00:20:50One.
00:20:51Two.
00:20:51We go.
00:20:52Look.
00:20:52Look.
00:20:53We go.
00:20:53Up.
00:20:54Down.
00:20:55Shoulder.
00:20:56Swing.
00:20:56Shimmy.
00:20:57Down.
00:20:58Up.
00:20:58Flick off the shoe.
00:21:00There you go.
00:21:00I didn't do any of it.
00:21:01I just did the end bit.
00:21:02When you say rapid.
00:21:05Carrying on.
00:21:06There's more.
00:21:07There's more.
00:21:08Not too much more.
00:21:09Only a little bit more.
00:21:10I think Claudie baby thinks I can do more than I can.
00:21:12Five.
00:21:13Six.
00:21:13Seven.
00:21:14Eight.
00:21:14One.
00:21:15Two.
00:21:15Three.
00:21:15Four.
00:21:16Five.
00:21:20Just give me a moment.
00:21:21And let me process this.
00:21:23And I'll come back with a product.
00:21:25It's fast.
00:21:26It's fast.
00:21:27But it's doable.
00:21:28Because we've done it.
00:21:29And I know you'll be able to do it.
00:21:31I know that.
00:21:32You're fucking dancers.
00:21:34No trust me.
00:21:35I can get you to do it.
00:21:35I can get you to do it.
00:21:36I can get you to do it.
00:21:37I guarantee that.
00:21:38Thank you Danny.
00:21:39Jumbos.
00:21:40We've got this.
00:21:41Right.
00:21:43What I'm not going to do is freak out.
00:21:45I am going to breathe.
00:21:47I'm going to remember what happened in girl group.
00:21:49And I'm not going to let that happen.
00:21:51Here we go.
00:21:51One.
00:21:52Two.
00:21:52Three.
00:21:53Shut.
00:21:53Look.
00:21:54And really start that.
00:21:56I can dance.
00:21:57I actually can dance.
00:21:59It takes me a while.
00:22:00But I can get there.
00:22:01One.
00:22:01Two.
00:22:02Three.
00:22:02And four.
00:22:03And.
00:22:03Sorry.
00:22:04It's okay.
00:22:05Just remember.
00:22:06That is going to the left.
00:22:08Oh.
00:22:08What am I doing?
00:22:09You're going to the right.
00:22:10I'm sorry.
00:22:13So sit on the left.
00:22:14And you want to come up to go there.
00:22:17There you go.
00:22:18No.
00:22:19What am I doing?
00:22:20You got it down.
00:22:21Yeah.
00:22:21I'll get it.
00:22:23I am going to be the best version of myself.
00:22:27Get ready for my redemption story kids.
00:22:29I know it was a lot that I've given you.
00:22:30We're talking about a mega mix.
00:22:32There was no point of just coming in and going.
00:22:34Oh.
00:22:35We were never going to do that.
00:22:37Okay.
00:22:37But we're going to make sure that you have it down.
00:22:40And I know that you are going to look absolutely amazing.
00:22:43It is the big day of big days tomorrow.
00:22:48I better be ready.
00:22:56Yes!
00:22:58Woo!
00:22:59We're going to win!
00:23:01Yes!
00:23:02It's the final!
00:23:05Someone's going to be crowned today.
00:23:07Someone's going to get that crown and that scepter.
00:23:11It's actually crazy.
00:23:13I am a cream cracker girl.
00:23:17Don't say it.
00:23:18I have to say it.
00:23:18I found it tricky at first.
00:23:20But I feel good now.
00:23:21Now that it's rehearsed and that we've done it a good few times.
00:23:24I feel relaxed into it.
00:23:26I've got this kids.
00:23:27I'm finally going to show Rui that I can dance in five, six, seven, eight.
00:23:31Girl, I can barely speak English and now I can speak dancer.
00:23:38The stench of competition in the workroom is stronger than one of my farts.
00:23:44And they can be strong.
00:23:45So one of us will be the winner.
00:23:48Will it be your first ever no badge winner?
00:23:50Nope.
00:23:51No!
00:23:54I mightn't have a badge, but I've got gumption and I've got a katsu to die for.
00:24:00Here we go, kiddie girls!
00:24:01Let's go!
00:24:10Girls, has anybody's experience been anything different than they thought it was going
00:24:13to be?
00:24:14It was a lot harder than I thought it would be.
00:24:16Yeah.
00:24:16Like, it's an intense experience and not just the drag.
00:24:19I feel like it's the endurance you need for it.
00:24:23It really is.
00:24:23It's almost like a race.
00:24:24Yeah.
00:24:25Watchin' that!
00:24:26Watchin' that!
00:24:29Even though, yes, it's been a pressure part and at some point it's boiling, but I've
00:24:35just loved every second of it.
00:24:37It's just been so fun!
00:24:39I wanted to come here to prove that I could do it to myself and to everybody else that
00:24:42never believed in me or they said I'd never make my dreams come true.
00:24:46Ha!
00:24:47I know we joke about you not having badges and stuff, but you do deserve to be here just
00:24:51as much as an expert.
00:24:52Thank you so much.
00:24:53Because you're you, there's not another you.
00:24:55Yeah.
00:24:55And you've proved time and time that this is your stage.
00:24:59That's so nice.
00:24:59Do you know what I mean?
00:25:00I love you.
00:25:02We're gonna smash tonight.
00:25:04Shit, you got a mic here!
00:25:06Oh, fuck.
00:25:07Sorry.
00:25:07I'll turn the client, I'll turn the second.
00:25:10What do you think you've learned, Chet?
00:25:12I'm learning how to be more me again.
00:25:15It's been a really transformative experience.
00:25:18It's reminded me of some stuff that I'd forgotten I could do.
00:25:21It has showed me some things that I didn't know I could do.
00:25:25And it's taught me some things that I had no idea I'd ever be able to do.
00:25:28I hope when you watch this back you realise how amazing you've done.
00:25:31Yeah.
00:25:32You've done amazing.
00:25:32You've done so incredible, babe.
00:25:35Like, you've really just blown this whole situation out of the park.
00:25:37I just, I just want to do, I want to do my family proud and I want to do...
00:25:41Well you will.
00:25:41And you have.
00:25:43Definitely.
00:25:43I want to feel like I've put something here that's meant to be here.
00:25:46So...
00:25:47Well, babe, you absolutely have.
00:25:49My highlight for you, Danny, is Caddy Man.
00:25:52When Alan brought out that laser pen and you just went...
00:25:55And he said, what would I do if I just put this laser on the...
00:26:03I did it!
00:26:04Oh, it was just genius.
00:26:05Do you know what?
00:26:06And I equally love your beard, woman love.
00:26:08Oh, thanks, sir.
00:26:11I think that was your real moment that you said...
00:26:14Yeah.
00:26:15I'm here and I'm not going nowhere, bitch.
00:26:18Do you know what I do think will go down in history?
00:26:20Your little Nas X, bitch.
00:26:22No, I think, I know it's not funny.
00:26:25Laugh anyway.
00:26:28Just laugh.
00:26:32That was comedy genius.
00:26:34Peppa, the moments I have loved of yours are probably the ones that you like the least.
00:26:39In that I have enjoyed seeing you survive, pull it out.
00:26:44But in addition to that, the way you walk a runway...
00:26:47Oh, yes.
00:26:48It's amazing.
00:26:49Wow, thank you.
00:26:50I am living proof that you can accomplish anything you want to accomplish in life.
00:26:53And if you put up a good fight, honey, you'll be here in the finale.
00:26:57Okay?
00:26:58So don't ever doubt yourself.
00:26:59Don't ever for one second think you can't do what you can do.
00:27:02I've learned that, you know, coming on the show, make sure you wear things that you can lip-sync in.
00:27:08Cheddar, I loved Rochelle.
00:27:12La cocorroche!
00:27:15No, chérie, surely it is good to be a little dirty sometimes, no?
00:27:22Every time I look at your station, I see those cockroaches.
00:27:25I'm just like, what?
00:27:25I'm keeping them.
00:27:26They're my children now.
00:27:28They're all my children.
00:27:29How's our Linda doing?
00:27:30Linda the cockroach.
00:27:32Linda?
00:27:32Oh, my God.
00:27:33What happened to Linda?
00:27:34God!
00:27:34Oh, sorry, I stood on her.
00:27:37I know that we've all had moments where we've gone, I can't really do that.
00:27:41And you know what?
00:27:42We can.
00:27:42We can.
00:27:43Even if we do it badly, we can still do it.
00:27:47You can still do it.
00:27:47Right?
00:27:48There is no such thing as I can't anymore.
00:27:51Just I can badly.
00:27:53Just I can badly.
00:27:55Just I can badly.
00:27:59I know my moves.
00:28:00I know my lyrics.
00:28:02I'm ready.
00:28:04I think it's anybody's game right now.
00:28:07It's anybody's game.
00:28:08I am ready to show the judges why I should be UK's next drag superstar.
00:28:13I am ready to put a show on.
00:28:16This hairy potato is going to look sweet with a crown on it.
00:28:22Welcome to the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race UK.
00:28:25Tonight, the whole family is together.
00:28:29She's one red hot mama, Michelle Visat.

00:28:46Oh, I bet you say that to all the national treasures.
00:28:49No, just you and Dame Shirley Bassey.
00:28:54And the super spexy Alan Carr.
00:28:57I can't wait to see how this turns out.
00:29:04You know, that would make a really great meme.
00:29:07Wouldn't it just?
00:29:09So stupid.
00:29:12This week we challenged our final four to take star turns
00:29:16performing a new Drag Race UK mega mix.

00:29:49Queens have been sighted stomping the runway.
00:29:52Suspects are known to be dangerously fierce and sickening.
00:29:56Calling all civilians to return to safety.
00:29:58This is not a test.
00:30:02This is not a test.
00:30:07In my business.
00:30:11That's what you feel.

00:30:29A bad girl rhythm with a Caribbean twist.
00:30:31Lipsync assassin since I walked in.
00:30:32Softly spoken but my body did the talking.
00:30:34Iconic runways.
00:30:35Watch me shut.
00:30:36Come in many times but I got back up.
00:30:38Latex baby.

00:30:40Everybody's salty but I'm just playing ball.
00:30:42And if I fly.
00:30:43Or if I fall.
00:30:45Least I can say.
00:30:47I gave it up.
00:30:49Fly fly fly fly.

00:31:54Flavor of this fever
00:31:56The realness, not the realness
00:31:59Catch it, touch it, touch it, catch it
00:32:01Flavor of this fever

00:34:20Can you feel the love
00:34:23The category is grand finale Eleganza, up first Black Pepper
00:34:30Hell must be missing an angel
00:34:33Instead of going for the typical pretty gown, because I could have honey
00:34:36I decided to give you an upcycled look that is quintessentially me and a touch of drag race
00:34:43Honey she is cracking that Black Pepper
00:34:47Tonight I feel like I am Black Pepper in her full form
00:34:51I feel beautiful, I feel elegant, and I just feel like a winner
00:34:56Burning rubber down the runway
00:34:58I hope she is on leaded
00:34:59I hope she is on leaded
00:35:01She is on leaded
00:35:03She is on leaded
00:35:04She are gorgeous
00:35:06A Mincer with a Pinsa
00:35:09I am serving a H.R. Geiger-inspired fantasy, bringing amazing alien deity energy to the runway.
00:35:18There's a fisting accident waiting to happen.
00:35:22I am doing what I know best. I am being my true sci-fi, inspirational, spectacular divin.
00:35:32Rui, you remember Paula Abdul's vibology?
00:35:35Yeah.
00:35:35This is Cheddar's follow-up, entomology.
00:35:39We got there.
00:35:40Yes, we did.
00:35:41Listen, Rami, get it right.
00:35:45Up next, old Danny Beard.
00:35:49What, this gold thing?
00:35:51I'm paying homage to Liverpool.
00:35:53I'm a lively, lively bird.
00:35:55A phoenix rising from the ashes.
00:35:58Ethereal, stunning, body, gold.
00:36:01That's what I call a flock destroyer.
00:36:05RuPaul's got her eyes all over me.
00:36:08I, let me tell you, I'm uncomfortable as fuck.
00:36:11But I look gorgeous, so you better give me that crown.
00:36:15Get the flock out of here.
00:36:25That's what I call a gold finger.
00:36:27This look is my drag and fashion dreams all come true.
00:36:30I am giving Gabbarelli realness.
00:36:32I am giving Celtic warrior, where my dragon's at?
00:36:36Fetch me some gruel, fair maiden.
00:36:41This look is very inspired by Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, and the battle for the crown is
00:36:46on.
00:36:47Do you think that ring is too big for her hand?
00:36:49No.
00:36:50Do you like the thing you should have put a shield on it?
00:36:56Welcome, my top four queens.
00:36:59Tonight, we salute the power, passion, and perseverance that brought you here.
00:37:05And on a personal note, I just want to applaud each of you.
00:37:09You should be very proud of yourselves.
00:37:11I am so proud of each and every one of you.
00:37:14And now it's time for your final critiques.
00:37:17First up, Black Pepper.
00:37:19Hey, Black Pepper.
00:37:20It's your girl, White Saul.
00:37:21Hey, White Saul.
00:37:24You know, watching you in this competition has been such a joy.
00:37:28And as you stand before me right now, you just look evolved.
00:37:32I thought the performance was dynamic tonight.
00:37:35I thought you killed it out there.
00:37:37You were a dancer.
00:37:38That dancing was off the chart.
00:37:40From the beginning, I loved your looks.
00:37:43You present them fantastically.
00:37:44You have such a kind of sense of your own body.
00:37:48You just pair these amazing things together.
00:37:51Leather, feathers, feminine, masculine.
00:37:53I just absolutely love it.
00:37:56Well, Black Pepper, your story is so amazing.
00:37:59And your courage and perseverance is really one for the storybooks.
00:38:05You have fought for your place to be here.
00:38:08Every time we thought, well, this might be it.
00:38:10You were like, hell no, not tonight.
00:38:13There's nothing you can't overcome because look where you are.
00:38:16Can I be honest with you?
00:38:18I know you were heartbroken when you were in the bottom two.
00:38:20But I used to go, yes, because I'm going to get an amazing performance.
00:38:25This experience here has just been phenomenal.
00:38:28Today, I just felt like I could do anything.
00:38:31And I'm so happy that you saw that on this stage.
00:38:33I just felt electrified.
00:38:35Fantastic.
00:38:37Up next, Cheddar Gorgeous.
00:38:40Cheddar, I know this may sound cheesy.
00:38:44But for me, seeing you in this vulnerable state, being judged, being critiqued, makes me look at you in a
00:38:51different perspective.
00:38:52And it's been refreshing to see.
00:38:54Your journey and your looks has been unbelievable.
00:38:56And tonight's is quintessentially Cheddar, quintessentially drag, but beautiful.
00:39:01You've surprised me because you have kept raising your game.
00:39:05And yet, you've managed to stay true to both the challenges and yourself.
00:39:10And tonight, in the challenge, you were sexy.
00:39:13You know, we saw some Cheddar crack.
00:39:17I think I saw a Derry Lee triangle.
00:39:22Every week, you've just given us something interesting.
00:39:25It's weird and it's crazy and it's avant-garde.
00:39:28But you let us in and it's always accessible.
00:39:31I love this look.
00:39:33It's so you.
00:39:34You look gorgeous.
00:39:36You're a pro.
00:39:37And I've witnessed you navigate not only the weekly challenges, but the challenges in opening yourself up.
00:39:43I've done things I definitely thought I'd never be doing in drag.
00:39:46And I have loved that freedom.
00:39:49I know that if I can do those things here in this environment, I know I can do anything in
00:39:54the world.
00:39:54And it has been transformative.
00:39:56Thank you, Cheddar.
00:39:57Up next, old Danny Beard.
00:40:00You have been so fun.
00:40:02You are so filled with personality and life.
00:40:04And it's been so great to see you accept who you are.
00:40:07That performance was so fun.
00:40:09When you did the fast talking in Call Me Mother, that was great.
00:40:13Only you could rhyme abdominals with phenomenal.
00:40:17I didn't know all these different facets to you.
00:40:20We've been on a few bills together doing things, but I'm not here to talk about my extensive charity work.
00:40:29And I'm so pleased.
00:40:31I sat here and watched you evolve.
00:40:34My God, you are funny.
00:40:36I mean, in all the comedy challenges, you...
00:40:38Oh, don't cry now.
00:40:38I know.
00:40:39I know.
00:40:39Fuck's sake.
00:40:40I'm funny.
00:40:43What I didn't expect were the looks and the beauty.
00:40:48Absolute beauty.
00:40:49I envy this hair.
00:40:50I mean, the hair goes into the makeup.
00:40:53It's pretty genius.
00:40:54And I think that you really are genius.
00:40:58When you're on stage, eyes are drawn to you.
00:41:00And that's something you can't learn.
00:41:02That's just something you know how to use.
00:41:04I am so proud of your journey here.
00:41:07I know you get emotional.
00:41:09You're all making me cry.
00:41:11This is everything to me, so...
00:41:13I think this is why I'm so emotional about it.
00:41:16Like, my whole life is drag, you know?
00:41:20Thanks.
00:41:23Up next, supermodel John Burrs Blonde.
00:41:26John Burrs, you're like the Pokemon of this competition.
00:41:30Constantly evolving.
00:41:31And every week, you are always willing to not just listen, but to apply.
00:41:36And you're going to continue to grow.
00:41:38I know you will, because you're that bitch.
00:41:40And it's so impressive.
00:41:42I think when people struggle at the beginning, most people are defeated by that.
00:41:46That isn't what happened to you.
00:41:47You're clearly a fighter.
00:41:48And that's why I think this look just sums you up.
00:41:51I love it.
00:41:52Joan of Arc with a toffee penny.
00:41:54Love it.
00:41:55You look so beautiful.
00:41:58This is the prettiest you've looked in my eyes for the whole competition.
00:42:02You have done something to your face that has opened it up.
00:42:06It looks so good.
00:42:08And I think probably your eye for fashion, your eye as a stylist, has allowed you to look for
00:42:14the bits that everyone else may have missed.
00:42:17Yeah.
00:42:17The performance was beautiful.
00:42:19You killed that choreography.
00:42:21You had such great energy.
00:42:22I was like, oh, I didn't know Jumbers had all that.
00:42:24Who knew you could dance like that?
00:42:27You knew you could dance like that.
00:42:29Yes.
00:42:30I knew if I just persisted with it, I would get it.
00:42:33And I'm not to get defeated because that's what I'd done with the girl group.
00:42:37And I thought, I'm not going back there.
00:42:38I'm going forward.
00:42:39I had the best time on that stage today.
00:42:41It was just electric.
00:42:43Thank you so much, Jumbers.
00:42:45Thank you so much.
00:42:47Ladies, a lot of young, sweet, sensitive souls watch this show looking for clues as to how
00:42:54to navigate their lives.
00:42:56With them in mind, I want to ask, Black Pepper, what advice would you give to six-year-old Akeem?
00:43:09It's so hard to watch that photo.
00:43:13I remember taking this picture, and I remember being so unhappy that I couldn't play outside
00:43:20with other kids, and I just always was in this strict upbringing that I just couldn't
00:43:26be free.
00:43:27And the things that people said to me that they probably don't remember, it hurt me so
00:43:34much.
00:43:35And I forgive them because I had to move on with my life.
00:43:40And I just want to tell him that you are amazing.
00:43:44You have everything inside yourself to take you far in life.
00:43:49And you're going to have to make sure that you do not give up, no matter how hard things
00:43:53get.
00:43:53You're going to be able to get out of that island where you're from, and you're going
00:43:57to be able to finally be free one day.
00:43:59And you're going to finally understand why you feel the way that you feel.
00:44:02Because everything that you feel, nothing's wrong with you.
00:44:10Cheddar Gorgeous, what advice would you give to five-year-old Michael?
00:44:16Oh.
00:44:19From as early as I can remember, I always felt like a grown-up.
00:44:26I don't know why you felt that you had to grow up so fast.
00:44:32But you're not as old, and you're not as wise as you like to think you are.
00:44:38Be young, especially when you grow up.
00:44:43And just know that you are surrounded by love, and you're going to be surrounded by
00:44:46more love than you possibly know.
00:44:48And more love than you possibly accept.
00:44:52You deserve it.
00:44:53You know, I don't know why, but kids with glasses always get me.
00:44:59Oh, my God.
00:45:01Danny Beard, what advice would you give to five-year-old Daniel?
00:45:07Oh, God, don't let your mom cut your hair, love.
00:45:13You're going to go through shit.
00:45:16Everyone's going to say, ask you if you're a girl.
00:45:18You're going to go through a moment where you think the bully's made you gay.
00:45:26You're going to doubt yourself.
00:45:28And then you're going to have big dreams, and you're going to get knocked back.
00:45:31Loads of times.
00:45:33But keep going, because when you keep going and you try, you really will succeed.
00:45:41And listen to your dad when he says you really look orange.
00:45:49Because one day you're going to get to meet so many amazing, like-minded people,
00:45:54and it's just going to be magical to keep going.
00:45:56I don't know if I'm laughing or crying right now.
00:46:03Jambers Blonde, what advice would you give to two-year-old Andrew?
00:46:11You're going to go through a lot, and people are going to laugh at you for having big dreams.
00:46:17And they're going to call you delusional.
00:46:19And you are delusional.
00:46:23But just trust that even though you think nobody likes you, you will find people that love you.
00:46:29And never stop fighting.
00:46:32And love your parents a bit more.
00:46:35Because they're the best things ever.
00:46:37And just know that you're amazing, even though that a lot of people don't tell you you are.
00:46:43Until you get to RuPaul's Drag Race.
00:46:49Thank you, ladies.
00:46:51While you untuck in the workroom, the judges and I will deliberate.
00:46:56You may leave the stage.
00:47:04Oh, my God!
00:47:06This is crazy!
00:47:08Hello!
00:47:09Well, I thought I could smell cheap perfume from outside the workroom.
00:47:14And look who's in here.
00:47:15Only the winners of RuPaul's Drag Race UK.
00:47:18These look phenomenal.
00:47:21You guys look like you've just fought in a battle.
00:47:23I love it.
00:47:24We really have.
00:47:25It's called season four.
00:47:26I'm leading the battle.
00:47:27I hear, and I'm looking at Christo Versace, Laurence Chaney, and the Vivian.
00:47:32And, oh, my God.
00:47:34What royalty.
00:47:35First of all, congratulations.
00:47:37You've made it to the final.
00:47:40Now, obviously, we are dying to know.
00:47:42Has it been amazing?
00:47:43It's been, it's been a, like, a literal dream come true.
00:47:46As a fan of the show, it's just been everything that I thought.
00:47:49And even more.
00:47:50It's just been so fun.
00:47:52Obviously, it's fucking tough.
00:47:54She's not a finalist, by the way.
00:47:56She's just paid for meet and greet.
00:47:59I do promise you, though, even though yous are knackered, it is worth it.
00:48:04If you win, even being in the final, you're better winning.
00:48:10The three winners of this show have gone on to do so much.
00:48:13So to sit beside them would mean so much.
00:48:16And what could be next?
00:48:17Do you know what?
00:48:18It's so amazing sitting here looking at four such diverse queens.
00:48:21The best piece of advice I could give is don't get complacent now.
00:48:26You have got the most amazing future ahead of yours, doing things you've never dreamed of doing.
00:48:30Whoever wins, the hard work starts the minute you leave Drag Race.
00:48:34It is all about that life after Drag Race.
00:48:37It's how you talk to your fans.
00:48:38Never be disrespectful to the people that are literally paying your rent.
00:48:41You know, we are living the dream of people liking us.
00:48:45How amazing is it that people like us?
00:48:47It's insane.
00:48:47And just know that, you know, you're fabulous, but you're not Beyonce.
00:48:52You know, try and stay great.
00:48:52I think I'm Beyonce.
00:48:55Okay, just you.
00:48:56Not Lil Nas X, though, John.
00:48:57Just you.
00:48:59I would also say, like, for me personally, I only just realised that the pressure wasn't coming from everyone else.
00:49:06It was coming from me.
00:49:07So just remember, like, don't look at anyone else.
00:49:10Follow your heart.
00:49:11And this is the key to do whatever you want.
00:49:13Are you ready to crown the next?
00:49:14Hmm.
00:49:15No.
00:49:18My crown is at home, fully locked away.
00:49:20No one's getting nearly.
00:49:21Sod the crown.
00:49:22I'll have the scepter, thank you very much.
00:49:24Think of all the amazing things you could do with that scepter.
00:49:26You could use it as a stick to beat your friends politely.
00:49:30You could use it for an exceedingly fabulously camped game of cricket.
00:49:35The possibilities are endless.
00:49:38Whatever happens tonight, well done, all of you.
00:49:41Cheers.
00:49:42Congratulations.
00:49:44No matter what happens when we walk out back onto that main stage, I'm proud of us all.
00:49:49And I'm super proud of me.
00:49:51So the new winner of Drag Race UK, cheers!
00:49:54Cheers!
00:49:56Cheers!
00:49:56Cheers!
00:49:57Cheers!
00:49:58Now, Jess, between us squirrel friends, what do you think?
00:50:02Who should be crowned the UK's next Drag Race Superstar?
00:50:06Let's start with Black Pepper.
00:50:08She arrived here and just took my breath away.
00:50:11And tonight, back with a bang.
00:50:13That was the performance you give in a finale.
00:50:15That kid can perform.
00:50:18The dancing, the look, all of it, the body.
00:50:20She was serving it.
00:50:22There was fire there, there was fierceness, and yet she smiles.
00:50:26And after hearing just a snippet of her backstory, she's here in the final.
00:50:30That's amazing.
00:50:31She has persevered.
00:50:33She's a fierce queen, and she's earned her spot.
00:50:35She is a star.
00:50:37Will Black Pepper and White Salt be going on tour?
00:50:40Yes, it's the reunion of Salt and Pepper.
00:50:43The condiment sisters.
00:50:47Let's talk about cheddar.
00:50:48There's something very refreshing about a queen who knows who she is, what she does,
00:50:53and what she can deliver really great.
00:50:55In the beginning, I thought I might get bored of perfection.
00:50:57But somehow, I didn't.
00:50:59Because there was always a twist in it, a quirk in it, something to get your teeth into.
00:51:03She's intelligent, and most importantly, she's provocative.
00:51:06And sometimes it provokes you to think.
00:51:09Looks-wise, I'm not sure she faltered ever.
00:51:12And tonight, I mean, this look was dynamic.
00:51:15Not a centimeter of it was unthought about.
00:51:19I'm sure there's influences there that I'm not clever enough to get.
00:51:22But she always has a message, and it is always detailed within an inch of its life.
00:51:27She is a real pro.
00:51:29She has been incredible.
00:51:31All right, let's talk about Danny Beard.
00:51:32Tonight, in the performance, you can tell how proud Danny was.
00:51:36Not only can Danny turn a look, Danny was also pushing himself.
00:51:40He went for it, and it has been so much fun.
00:51:45That's the queen I'm queuing up in the rain to go and see.
00:51:47An entertainer.
00:51:48A proper entertainer.
00:51:49He never disappointed in any of the challenges.
00:51:52And you know what?
00:51:53He makes it look easy.
00:51:55To be spontaneous like that, it takes me weeks.
00:51:59The talent is there.
00:52:01But also, not afraid to show the emotions.
00:52:04Which gives us a fully rounded human being.
00:52:07I would watch Danny perform the phone book.
00:52:10If you can find a phone book.
00:52:12Do they even exist anymore?
00:52:13I don't know.
00:52:13I don't think so.
00:52:14What's a phone?
00:52:15Exactly.
00:52:17All right, let's talk about John Burr's blonde.
00:52:19She has come on such a journey, and tonight was a spectacular night for John Burr's.
00:52:24She came out here in that incredible cat suit, killed it with the choreography, and then that
00:52:30outfit tonight.
00:52:31Look how pretty she looks.
00:52:33Like, who is this girl?
00:52:35I wish I could travel back in time 10 weeks and put a bet on John Burr's being in the
00:52:39final.
00:52:39Because it would have been about 100 to 1.
00:52:41Yeah.
00:52:42It was amazing to see how far she's come.
00:52:45And I think that's all happened here in front of our eyes, and what a joy.
00:52:50I don't think in recent history I can remember a queen who's been able to apply these critiques
00:52:56as well as she has.
00:52:57To me, she's a bit like a wind turbine.
00:52:59Do you know what I mean?
00:52:59You can use that wind and use it for good, and that's what she did.
00:53:03It's true!
00:53:05Silence.
00:53:07I've made my decision.
00:53:10I've made my decision.

00:57:05I have so much admiration for Cheddar

00:57:12The winner of RuPaul's Drag Race UK will receive a spectacular crown and scepter courtesy of Fierce Drag Jewels
00:57:21Plus, an all-expenses-paid trip to Hollywood to create and star in your own series with the producers of
00:57:30RuPaul's Drag Race
00:57:31Two queens stand before me
00:57:37I've consulted with the judges, but the final decision is mine to make
00:57:42Prior to tonight, you were asked to prepare a lip-sync performance of This Is My Life by the iconic
00:57:51Dame Shirley Bassey
00:57:53Ladies, this is your last chance to impress me and prove to the world
00:58:00That you are the UK's next drag race superstar
00:58:06The time has come
00:58:07For you to lip-sync
00:58:11For the crown
00:58:16This is it
00:58:17It is time to leave all of it out on the stage
00:58:22And go for that crown
00:58:24The fight's on, babe
00:58:25I am ready to throw everything at this and the kitchen sink
00:58:29I'm going to show RuPaul why I should be a winner for this show
00:58:34Good luck
00:58:37And don't
00:58:38Fuck it up
00:58:47Funny how a lonely day can make a person say
00:58:51What good is my life
00:58:54Funny how a breaking heart can make me start to say
00:59:00What good is my life
00:59:06Till I look around and see this great big world is part of me
00:59:10And my life
00:59:16And my life
00:59:17This is my life
00:59:20Today my love will come and find me
00:59:24For that's the way that I was born to be
00:59:28Let me live
00:59:37Sometime when I feel afraid
00:59:39I think of what a mess I've made of my life
00:59:46I was put on earth to be
00:59:48A part of this great world is me
00:59:51And my life
00:59:56Guess I'll just adapt the score
00:59:58And count the things I'm grateful for
01:00:00In my life
01:00:07This is my life
01:00:09This is my life
01:00:10And I don't give a damn
01:00:11For lost emotions
01:00:13I swear to God of love
01:00:16But not the gift
01:00:18Let me live
01:00:20Let me live
01:00:24This is my life
01:00:29This is my life
01:00:58Ladies, I've made my decision.

01:01:35Congratulations.
