00:04Bagger Chips here, queen of the battered sausage, and I love to be covered in daddy's sauce.
00:09I'm Bagger Chips MBE, I love gin and tonic, Coronation Street, and a good old shag.
00:14I grew up in the black country in a town called West Bromwich, near Birmingham.
00:18Bagger Chips is always brassy blonde, big massive knockers, knickers on show.
00:24Yeah, she's a right trollop.
00:26Where the fuck is everyone?
00:28Oh my god, I'm on my own.
00:30Whey, Bagger's here, whey.
00:32The biggest thing I'm going to bring to the table is my personality, my live vocals, my uniqueness.
00:38I'm unique as fuck, mate.
00:40Oh, I hope they don't see me minge.
00:43Well, I'm known on the UK drag scene for being a bit of a gobshite.
00:47Everybody knows me.
00:48I'm a bit like Frush, you can't get rid of me.
00:50God, I'm shitting my knickers.
00:51Ah, I'm not famous, I'm infamous.
00:56Oh, I wonder who's going to come in.
00:58Probably shagged half of them.
01:03I'm ready to paint the town blue.
01:05Oh my god.
01:08Cam.
01:09I'm Blue Hydrangea and I'm the queen of the makeup brush from Northern Ireland.
01:13I describe my drag style as a school art project with legs.
01:17Hi, how are you?
01:17My drag is crazy, fun, eclectic, really bright.
01:22I'm totally inspired by cosplay but always creative, always colourful and always 100% blue.
01:28Where are you from?
01:29Scotland?
01:29No, Northern Ireland.
01:30Oh, Northern Ireland.
01:31Yeah, a very small drag scene over there.
01:33Back in Belfast, I perform up to four times a week and I'm probably one of the best queens there.
01:39I'm going to get in trouble for saying that.
01:41So I can do Irish accents now then?
01:43Go on, you have to.
01:43Can you do Andy Dean Coyle?
01:45Noi.
01:46Noi, that's it.
01:47Noi, get over here, noi.
01:48Oh my, noi.
01:50That's it.
01:50I am Generation Roo.
01:51I've come from the era of queens that watched Drag Race as kids and wanted to try it out.
01:56I'm also the queen of Instagram.
01:57The likes on social media definitely do give me validation.
02:00Love me.
02:02I just want to make some friends.
02:03Yeah, oh yeah, everyone's friendly, you know what I mean?
02:05But you normally do get the odd twat, don't you?
02:07Yeah.
02:09I'm also bringing the Northern Irish flair.
02:11I hear some clogs, so you better watch out.
02:13Who could he be?
02:17Oh my god.
02:18It's DDC on the BBC.
02:21I hope we get that season one filter.
02:24My name's Davina De Campo, I'm 35 and I'm from Brighouse.
02:30Three ways that would sum up my drag are classy, sassy and a little bit brassy.
02:35You don't need any filters, bitch.
02:37I think my drag is kind of the bridge in between the old school and the new school.
02:40Like to me, old school was very much about what you do and new school is about how you look.
02:44I'm glad we've got an Irish queen.
02:46Oh, you know, the lack of the Irish and all that.
02:48Well, yeah.
02:49They're all wrecked all the time.
02:51Just like us.
02:53I dance, I act, I tell jokes very badly, I can sew, I style wigs and I can sing in
02:59five languages in four and a half octaves while doing the splits.
03:03So there, bitch.
03:05I love this.
03:06Thanks.
03:07DDC.
03:07DDC.
03:10You're the face of the BBC now.
03:12I think I'm quite well known.
03:13I mean, I've been on The Voice, The Real Housewives of Cheshire.
03:16Join in friends.
03:18All Together Now series one.
03:20All Together Now series two.
03:22I was introducing like The Simpsons and stuff like that.
03:24So, yeah, I'm pretty well known.
03:26We need a good mummy to take care of us all, don't we?
03:28Well, they're going to turn the fucking telly off.
03:29I like how you looked at me when you said crown mummy.
03:33I'll remember that, Blue.
03:34Don't forget.
03:34Oh, I love this.
03:35Everything that I've got, I've had to work for.
03:37Just because I married an old rich man who's going to die soon, doesn't mean that it was easy.
03:43But maybe I am.
03:51Maybe she's born with it.
03:53Maybe it's body dysmorphia.
03:57I'm Crystal, and like my namesake, I'm sparkly, transparent, and cheap.
04:02Crystal is like a Jessica Rabbit parody of what sexy is.
04:06A fusion of glam rock, comic books and superheroes, and sci-fi and fantasy novels.
04:12It's just one giant tip.
04:14Really?
04:15Unicorns are out, unitits are in.
04:17Crystal, is that an accent that I'm detecting?
04:19I was born in Canada, but I've been living in London for 10 years.
04:22Oh, wow.
04:23I represent East London drag, which is a little bit more punk, a little bit more genderfuck,
04:27kind of the alternative style of drag.
04:28I used to produce cabaret shows, I still do, and I perform with Ariel Circus.
04:33Uh-huh.
04:33I don't want to say my drag is cool drag, because you can't say you're cool and still be cool.
04:38But, yeah, it's cool.
04:43You're still going to use that now.
04:47Ooh!
04:48Did somebody order delivery?
04:50Because I'm about to take away the crowd.
04:52My name's 17 Wong, I'm 30, and I come from Birmingham.
04:55I feel that my drag is glam, but on a budget, because I can't afford all the nice things,
04:59so I make them all myself.
05:00You look fabulous!
05:01So do you, I've never seen EastEnders look so glam.
05:04Oh, you took a bit.
05:05I think the drag I represent is like showgirl, but like modern showgirl.
05:09I learn everything from the older queens on the scene, but the other side of that is,
05:13I love things like makeup and Ariana Grande, so I'm like this monster of new drag now.
05:18Oh, I feel like a ravishing young woman.
05:23And what's your name?
05:24Sumting Wong.
05:25Oh my god!
05:26The name Sumting Wong is a reclamation of those little micro-aggressional racist digs that people give out.
05:33And for the people who think my name is racist, all I can say is,
05:36me so sorry.
05:44Hold on to your knickers, girls, because the Queen of Essex has arrived.
05:49I'm Cheryl Hull, I'm 25 years old, and every Hull is a girl with Cheryl Hull.
05:55Cheryl is known for her lip-sync, slaying, death-dropping, and turning the party girl.
06:02A fringy minge.
06:05I'm Lelby of Toyoya, I'm Blue, nice to meet you.
06:08Hi babe.
06:09I'm here to represent the Essex girls, the glitz, the glam,
06:12sometimes the vajazzles, and just, you know, show people that we are polished,
06:16classy girls, and not falling out of clubs.
06:18Like, real talk, for everyone I've seen, you are the dancer.
06:22Well, I try my best.
06:23I play to my strengths, and that's one of them.
06:26Do you have anything, like, do you take after Cheryl Cole in any way?
06:30Well, we do, like, the Gals Allowed show, so I play Cheryl in that.
06:33Have you met her yet?
06:34No.
06:34We worked with Nadine.
06:36Meet Nadine, I was actually like, hi.
06:38You know I look like her tonight.
06:39Yeah.
06:41I've got the total package, and I've got the charisma, uniqueness, heaven.
06:45Challenge.
06:50Oh my gosh.
06:51So this is what he looks like.
06:53I'm Gotti Kendall, I'm 21, and I'm from Leicester.
06:56I thought I was going to be the pretty one.
07:00Gotti Kendall, Gotti Kendall.
07:02With my entrance outfit, I am serving Gotti at her finest.
07:05I would say that others would describe my drag as quite dark, quite intimidating, but also really fresh and unique.
07:10No offence, I feel like me and you have, like, dropped the kids off at school.
07:12Yeah, exactly.
07:14So how old are you?
07:1521.
07:16Oh!
07:17I'm not the youngest anymore.
07:19The kind of drag I don't represent is the old battle axes in pubs that are just mean for the
07:24sake of it.
07:24They're wearing a feather bow, a hard front wig, and a gown, and they're just boring.
07:27And what inspired this?
07:28Uh, so, I'm a bit of a chav.
07:30So...
07:32I thought I'd get April.
07:34Like, I tried to be a bit better.
07:38Because my drag is so strong and also seen as quite intimidating, a lot of people will think that will
07:42reflect my boy self,
07:44but I'm actually a bit geeky and quite introverted.
07:46I love the bum.
07:48Yeah, I went for, like, the anal beard hair.
07:50Thought I'd go for something a bit different.
07:51Well, say anything to Dildo if you try.
07:54I could do it with fucking traffic cones, man.
07:56Oh, my God.
08:04I didn't become just a little bit of a slag.
08:06I became a total slag.
08:12I'm Vinegar Strokes, I'm 34 years old, and I'm from The Big Smoke, which makes me a proper London lady.
08:19Drag style, well, there's a lot of animal print.
08:21Glamorous, with lots of humour.
08:23I'm not afraid to go from gorgeous to minging, so no one else is going to do that.
08:30Oh, my God!
08:31Yeah!
08:32Oh, you fucking bitch, darling!
08:35I describe myself as a dragter.
08:38So that's an actor who does drag, and a drag queen who acts.
08:42So, what's your boy job?
08:43What do you do every day?
08:44So, the boy job is basically a drag job.
08:47On the West End, everybody's talking about Jamie.
08:50It is the plug.
08:50Oh, my goodness!
08:51It is the plug.
08:52Sound to bollocks me name, alright, darling?
08:53Ah!
08:54Amazing!
08:55So, you were working with Michelle?
08:57Yes!
08:57Yeah!
08:58Working with the one family.
09:00Oh!
09:00Jo was hilarious.
09:01I said to her, oh, I'm probably going to audition for this.
09:03I can't help you.
09:04Don't ask me.
09:06I was like, I wouldn't ask you nothing.
09:08But now you've said it, I definitely won't ask you.
09:10The big girl just entered.
09:12She brought the party.
09:14And that wig.
09:16I could not believe that you just walked in.
09:19Yes!
09:19I had a feeling you'd be here though.
09:20I had a feeling.
09:21Why does everybody keep saying that?
09:22Because you've been talking about it for years.
09:35I'm Scatty Cat.
09:37I like playing with balls of yarn, having a sleep in the sun,
09:41and licking myself all over.
09:43My drag is bold, it's creative, and it's a little bit arty,
09:48and a little bit conceptual, and a little bit fun.
09:51And how old are you?
09:52I'm 19.
09:53Oh my God!
09:54Oh my God!
09:55Goffy, you're demoted!
09:57How long have you been doing it?
09:58I've been doing it for 11 months.
10:00Oh!
10:01Oh my God!
10:02You've got some balls!
10:04I know, ironically.
10:05But you look amazing for it.
10:06Gorgeous.
10:06Thank you very much.
10:08And what inspires all this?
10:10I've actually got a girlfriend.
10:11I'm actually gay.
10:13Yay!
10:15Oh my God!
10:17Oh, right.
10:18Scaredy Cat really does like the pussy.
10:20Do you perform?
10:21I've never performed before.
10:22What?
10:23Oh my God!
10:24This is where the pitchforks come out.
10:25I know.
10:27I don't care about telling these girls that I've never performed before
10:29because Ru picked me and I'm here for a reason.
10:33Does your girlfriend love what you do?
10:34Yeah, she's a drag queen as well.
10:35Bio queen.
10:36Oh no!
10:37Come on.
10:38Keep it in the family.
10:39Yeah.
10:39She's called Pussycat.
10:41That's okay.
10:42She's gonna have little drag babies coming out.
10:45Right?
10:45So yes, I am a baby queen and yes, I am the youngest queen to ever walk on to Drag
10:49Race,
10:49but I've got a lot to offer and I'm gonna fucking win it.
11:00Don't get too comfy girls, this isn't gonna take two minutes.
11:05My name is The Vivian, I'm 26 years old and I'm from a gorgeous little fishing village called Liverpool.
11:10My drag is glamorous, polished and stunning.
11:15Hello love!
11:16Oh you look amazing!
11:18The Vivian, I came up with that because I love Vivian Westwood.
11:21I wanted a really short and snappy name without one of them tacky surnames,
11:24so I came up with the Vivian.
11:26How does it feel coming here, being the drag ambassador?
11:28It's mad because like, I just don't want people to think I'm here just because I want the ambassador as
11:32well.
11:32About four years ago, I was crowned by RuPaul as the UK ambassador for Drag Race.
11:38But essentially, that was just a little competition in a bar.
11:41I am here because I deserve to be here.
11:43There will be no special treatment, but I'm still gonna slay everyone!
11:47It's crazy, gonna see Ru again.
11:49I feel like I'm sorry, my one, so hopefully we can see it again.
11:53Now I know she has every right to boast, but there is a level of confidence exuberating after Vivian.
11:59And I'm a bit like, girl, you need a wipe down.
12:01Especially with that wipe clean outfit.
12:04Guys, we are the cast of season one of Drag Race UK.
12:11Whoa!
12:13Here we go, girls.
12:14What's up, please? Here, let me hear you.
12:15Ooh.
12:16Brumel.
12:18Her Majesty did already had herses.
12:21My royal subjects.
12:23If you stay regal, you ain't got to get regal.
12:26So take a lesson from Her Majesty the Queen and walk into the race, purse first.
12:33Now keep going and carry on.
12:34Or heads will roll.
12:41Hello, hello, hello!
12:47Welcome to the first ever RuPaul's Drag Race UK.
12:53Now, I personally selected each of you because you represent the rich past and the bright future of drag in
13:01the United Kingdom.
13:03That's right.
13:03I personally fingered each of you.
13:07You are the 21st century global identity.
13:10A shiny example of when different cultures come together with open hearts, open minds, and ten pounds of makeup.
13:18We can change the mother tucking world.
13:21Yay!
13:24Hashtag Drag Race UK.
13:26Now, are y'all ready to make Drag Race Herstory?
13:29Hell yes!
13:31Hell yes!
13:31Good.
13:33At the grand finale, the winner will be crowned the UK's first Drag Race superstar.
13:38And then she'll be whisked off to Hollywood to star in her very own digital series, produced by the hit
13:44-making team that created RuPaul's Drag Race.
13:46Wow.
13:48Oh, my God.
13:49Some team wong in Hollywood.
13:51Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme.
13:53All right.
13:54It's time for your very first photo shoot, where you'll be serving body and face, just not at the same
14:00time.
14:02Oh, Brit Crew.
14:11Oh, Brit Crew, where'd you get all that ex?
14:14Ooh, yeah.
14:17Nice helmet.
14:19Are you scared?
14:22Because you should be.
14:24Okay.
14:30All right.
14:31Chop, chop.
14:32Let's go.
14:33Bag of Chips is here.
14:35Aw.
14:35Hello.
14:36Now, in the tradition of Anne Boleyn and Mary, Queen of Scots, we're going to do a little photo shoot,
14:42a video postcard.
14:44We're calling it Off With Your Head, and you'll be modeling with your severed head.
14:49You've done that before, haven't you?
14:51Yeah.
14:52Now, the first pose is body-oddy-oddy, and the second pose is face, face, face.
14:58Where, through the magic of green screen, we'll create one bloody good image.
15:03Brit Crew, hand her the muzzle.
15:07So, what position do you have in mind?
15:10Oh, dear.
15:11Oh, you're getting down there?
15:12Sorry if you can see me tuppence.
15:13Yes, well, thank God I don't have a telephoto lens.
15:17Oh, my tuppence is on show.
15:19Feed the birds.
15:21All right, head on over to the next area there.
15:23My queen, your last words.
15:25Shut your garb, there's a draft.
15:28Now, will people at home know what a gob is?
15:30They call me a gob shy, because I'm quite gobby.
15:32If you've got a big gob, you're loud.
15:34Okay.
15:34Such a rich cultural exchange for me here.
15:37Blue.
15:37Blue.
15:38Here we go.
15:39And let's do that first pose now.
15:41We've only just arrived, and you're asking us to put a collar on and get in a box?
15:46Oh, my wife.
15:47Let's do your line now.
15:48How are you going to have a cuppa without this mug?
15:52Oh, you said that like Cher.
15:53Oh, I'm Cher's decapitated head, bitch.
15:57I think that's the winner right there.
16:00Davina, darling, welcome to your decapitation.
16:04You know, sometimes you just gotta stick your neck out.
16:07Ey!
16:08This is what I look like from down here.
16:10No more carbonara for you, you fat bastard.
16:14Oh, that makes me hungry.
16:16Are you ready, Crystal?
16:16I'm ready.
16:17Okay, assume the position.
16:19Oh, okay.
16:20Yes.
16:21Close your eyes and think of England, darling.
16:25What?
16:26You would too if you could.
16:30Cheryl Hole.
16:32I'm gonna hold the hair.
16:33Hold the hair.
16:33Okay, here we go.
16:34Nice.
16:35Now let's say that line.
16:36Guys, I said I wanna be fed.
16:39Not off with my head.
16:42What's going on?
16:43Come on over, darling.
16:46Well, ain't that a kick in the head.
16:47Any last words?
16:49Okay.
16:49I give better hair than all the queens here.
16:53You don't seem very enthusiastic.
16:54No?
16:55No.
16:55Bit more?
16:55Yeah.
16:56Okay, cool.
16:57Me.
16:58I give better hair than all the queens here.
17:03Are we there?
17:04Do you have another one in ya?
17:05One more, one more.
17:06Here we go.
17:07Me.
17:08I give better hair than all the queens here.
17:13Is that okay?
17:14No.
17:18Cool.
17:18Not that different, but I'll take it.
17:20Rui was laughing.
17:21I was having a good time.
17:22I think I killed it.
17:23Thank you, Gothi.
17:24Come on out of there.
17:25Gothi kendo.
17:26Gothi kendo.
17:27All right, up next we've got Vinegar Strokes.
17:30Is it okay if I call this doggy style?
17:32I think that's appropriate.
17:33Uh-huh.
17:33What does Vinegar Strokes mean?
17:35You know, there's that kind of special moment when you're lovemaking and you're just about to release the beast, as
17:41it were.
17:42Oh.
17:42And it's that facial going.
17:44Why don't you incorporate a little Vinegar Strokes face?
17:48Okay.
17:49Okay.
17:49I've always been told the best head is on your hands and knees.
17:52Thanks, Mum.
17:56Lovely.
17:58Looks like Scaredy Cat just got home from the vet.
18:01Now, don't scratch or you'll make it worse.
18:03What pose are you going to start with, Scaredy Cat?
18:05I think I'm going to be like shitting my head out.
18:07That's what I'm doing constantly.
18:09Shitting myself.
18:10Boop-boopie-doo.
18:12We're going to have you go on over to the green screen.
18:14Don't be scared.
18:15I'll try my best.
18:16Cats love boxing.
18:18There you go.
18:20I think I just shit myself.
18:25You're watching the BBC.
18:29Yes, something, something wrong.
18:31This is the first chance I get to really talk to RuPaul and I need to make an impression.
18:36Oh, it's milking time.
18:38Who's a hungry boy?
18:39Who's a hungry boy?
18:41Okay, I think we got that.
18:42You can put that away now.
18:46This would be difficult, but not impossible to pleasure yourself too.
18:53Huh.
18:54Yeah, well I take it you're not lactose intolerant?
18:57People will be after they see that.
19:00All right, the Vivian.
19:01Let's kick things off by cutting off your head.
19:04Don't you hate it when you get things stuck to your shoe?
19:05Perfect.
19:06Got it.
19:06So you're going to look right into the camera and say your line.
19:10You're only supposed to blow me bloody hair off.
19:12You get a Michael Caine?
19:13Yes, yes.
19:15You liar.
19:16Can we hear it as if Maggie Smith says it?
19:19You're only supposed to blow the bloody hair off.
19:22Cardi B?
19:23You're only supposed to blow the bloody hair off.
19:25Oh, trademark.
19:28Anybody else you'd like to try?
19:30Maybe Kim Woodburn.
19:31Kim Woodburn?
19:32Yeah, she is a cleaner off the telly.
19:35She became very famous in Big Brother.
19:36Oh, she's with the ponytail.
19:38Yeah, yeah.
19:38The blonde with the ponytail, yes.
19:39She's hilarious.
19:40Oh, lovey.
19:41You're only supposed to blow the bloody hair off.
19:44Don't you.
19:44Start with me, because I won't take it.
19:46Stop!
19:50Ladies, on the whole, you were neck and neck.
19:54But one of you was head and shoulders above the rest.
19:58The winner of the first RuPaul's Drag Race UK Mini Challenge is...
20:03I think I've just shit myself.
20:09Scaredy Cat Contragulation.
20:12Yay!
20:14I won, what?
20:15Maybe you don't need loads of experience to do this.
20:18Maybe you just need, um, talent.
20:21Scaredy Cat is the winner.
20:25She just got birthed.
20:27What is this about?
20:28Wow.
20:28Now, ladies, it might shock you to find out that there's one queen that's been around even
20:34longer than me.
20:37I speak, of course, of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
20:42And, girl, she has been popping and dipping for 93 years!
20:48So, for your first maxi challenge, you need to sashay down the runway in an outfit inspired by a classic
20:56look of Queen Elizabeth herself.
21:05Gentlemen, start your engines, and may the best woman wait!
21:15Did you think I flew all the way across the pond to see just one look?
21:20Oh, real no!
21:25Here we go.
21:26To get to know you even better, you need to serve a second look that shows me why you are
21:33the queen of your hometown.
21:36Now, for both looks, you'll be judged on your creativity, style, and how well you work it on the runway.
21:43Gentlemen, start your engines, and may the best woman win!
21:48Woo!
21:50Hi!
21:51This is so crazy seeing Rue here in England hosting Drag Race.
21:54I mean, we've been dying for this for years and never thought it'd happen.
21:58And here we are.
22:01We're into the suitcase scrabble.
22:03Find a rail, fight them, kill them, run!
22:07Whose is this gorgeous bin bag?
22:09Bagger, is that yours?
22:10Yeah.
22:11Bagger looks like she's just been dropped off from prison.
22:14I'm going by the fabric.
22:20Look at those luscious real locks of hair.
22:22Oh, tell me about it.
22:23Everyone's slowly turning into boys.
22:26Oh, that's where my tissue went.
22:27Crystal is just hair all over, isn't she?
22:30Fucking hell.
22:31The thing with drag in the UK is it's so different.
22:34You can get away with not having brows.
22:36Hairy chest.
22:36You can have your hairy chest.
22:38Yeah.
22:38We all just embrace everybody's different drag aesthetics.
22:41I like the hairy chest because it lets people know where I stand, kind of.
22:44Yeah.
22:44I like fucking with people that way.
22:50You like my titties?
22:51Yeah? Can I feel them?
22:53Yeah, babe, that medical grade silicone.
22:56I have never worn a tit.
22:58You've never worn a tit?
22:59Oh, baby, it's all about the tit.
23:00It's heavy.
23:01Yeah?
23:01This is what women actually put in their bodies as well.
23:04It feels like a ball bag.
23:06Hiya, Bagger.
23:06Hello.
23:08Darling.
23:08Oh, you look so different.
23:10You look exactly the same.
23:13I look elegant.
23:15Bagger, boy bagger.
23:18Bagger, boy bagger.
23:21Same person.
23:23Have you had your teeth done as well, haven't you?
23:25Well, they're like clipping.
23:26Oh, sorry, it's something wrong.
23:27Wait, are they clipping?
23:28Yeah.
23:28What do you mean clipping?
23:30They come out?
23:30They come out?
23:33Do you take your teeth out at night and put them in a glass?
23:36Yes.
23:37Let's just say after more than kissing them and they...
23:40Do you know what?
23:41I got mine done about three years ago and it was the best thing I've ever done.
23:45Everyone's d-dragging in the mirror and the conversation quickly moves to plastic surgery and especially teeth.
23:50My teeth are always something that are in the back of my head.
23:52I'm always talking and I'll go like this.
23:54They're definitely a big part of my insecurities.
23:57My drag is all about turning a look and being pretty and I don't want people to be staring at
24:00my teeth, which I don't like.
24:07Oh, work rate.
24:09I like the crud.
24:10I like the crud.
24:12Today is the first runway ever and we've got two looks to pull out.
24:15Where is everything?
24:16There it is.
24:17The first is our queen of the home town and the second is Queen Elizabeth Realness.
24:21It's like coming to fucking Oz.
24:24One of these girls is actually going today.
24:26It's not going to be me.
24:27But the pressure is on.
24:29You don't want to be the first to go, do you?
24:34Hey cop, where is it?
24:39Oh, dry shaving.
24:42Your boy's skating.
24:44Where are you from again, Skirnik?
24:46Wiltshire, like in the middle of nowhere.
24:48I've never been to Wiltshire.
24:49Have you not?
24:49No, where is it and what's...
24:51It's like close to Swindon, close to Sorensest.
24:54Oh yeah, I've been to Swind... Sweden.
24:56Swindon a couple of times, yeah.
24:57Nearly the same place.
24:59Is there a scene now?
25:00I didn't tell you, I've got no fucking idea.
25:02I really like Vinegar.
25:04She's kind of giving me mummy vibes at the moment, which is chilling me right out.
25:07I've never been to a drag performance in my life.
25:09Babe, you need to go to a drag performance.
25:11I know, it's bad, isn't it?
25:12Oh my god.
25:14Never been to a drag show?
25:17Hmm.
25:17This is getting more and more interesting.
25:20That's great though.
25:20So I used Birmingham, right?
25:21No, mine is London.
25:23Oh yeah.
25:24Everyone thinks I'm from Birmingham though, which is so weird.
25:25Why is that?
25:26I think because they think I look like Lenny Henry, that's fine.
25:33Oh, what are you taping your face for?
25:36To get rid of the years of alcohol.
25:38Do you always?
25:39And regret.
25:40Yeah.
25:40I feel like Robin Williams.
25:42And Mrs Doubtfire.
25:44You're from Liverpool, aren't you?
25:45Yeah.
25:46Well, I'm from North Wales originally.
25:47Oh, are you?
25:48I do like a Welsh man.
25:49Oh, gorgeous.
25:50Keep away from me.
25:52Apart from you.
25:53Can you feel my face now though, how tight it is?
25:56Oh my god.
25:58Me and Bagger are having an absolute scream.
26:00We've got our stations right next to each other.
26:02This is going to be a ball.
26:04Well, Princess Margaret is my favourite royal of all time.
26:07She's amazing.
26:08Bagger seems to be obsessed with the royals.
26:10She likes a gin and tonic like me.
26:12She smokes 20 a day.
26:14Like you, girl.
26:15Yeah, she's like me.
26:15And we're very elegant and classy as well, so.
26:19What do you think about the royals?
26:20I don't know.
26:21I don't really get it.
26:22I think they are unelected and I think they've got too much power and influence.
26:26I mean, you look at the Americans, they would kill for a royal family.
26:29Oh, they'd die.
26:30They've got Donald Trump at the moment, so I think they'd be happy with any of them.
26:33Well, you'd take anyone, wouldn't you?
26:38Lou, what's it like where you're from?
26:39Drag-wise, there's like, not many drag queens about it, to be honest.
26:43What about you?
26:46Yeah, there's nothing there.
26:49That makes me feel better.
26:50Yeah, Brigham system, no gay scene, no drag queens.
26:54Where do you perform mostly?
26:55I do a lot in Manchester, I do a lot in London.
26:57It's kind of work all over.
26:58You pay, I fly, that's what I say.
27:00We have two different looks to prepare today and that is absolutely not my thing.
27:05And yesterday proved to me that this is anybody's game.
27:08I've been here for 15 years and so I've got a little bit of something to prove, I think.
27:14And where's your home time?
27:15My home town's Leicester.
27:16Just a boring little city in the Midlands.
27:19So we're all from boring little cities, right? That's okay.
27:21But I'm from like, the middle of nowhere.
27:23Getting real next to Blue and being two look queens, I need to prove that I can stand up.
27:27Do you think Michelle will be harsh?
27:29Yeah, I imagine.
27:32Let's get this shit on because we haven't got long, have we?
27:34This is the very first runway of RuPaul's Drag Race UK.
27:39Now it's time to show the world how the queens of the UK rock the runway.
27:44Nobody wants to be the first queen to go today, but it would be kind of punk rock.
27:48Main stage of RuPaul's Drag Race UK.
27:51She's a royal pain in the arse.
27:55Michelle Visage.
27:56Hello, Governor.
27:58Bouncy or crumpet?
27:59May I please have some more?
28:02Cheerio.
28:04And the super funny, super spexy Alan Carr.
28:09Hi, Ru.
28:09And I am thrilled to welcome our extra special guest judge, Andrew Garfield.
28:15Ru, I am so happy.
28:17I feel like a competition winner.
28:18And the prize is a day in gay heaven.
28:21Thank you so much.
28:22I'll let you know what gay heaven is in just a few minutes.
28:26How could you do?
28:30This week we challenged our queens to rule the runway in two royal looks.
28:35Gentlemen, start your engines and may the best woman win.
28:39Can you feel the...
28:41Category is Queen of your hometown.
28:45First up, Crystal.
28:47Earl's of wisdom.
28:48Yes.
28:48The only thing missing is a pearl necklace.
28:50Aw, shucks!
28:51Crystal is an East London party girl.
28:53She's been out all weekend and she still looks great.
28:55That's one bender I want to go on.
28:56On my head, I'm wearing ten kilos of pearls.
29:00And the swish is a maid.
29:02The gloves are completely hand appliqued.
29:04It's where kitsch meets fashion.
29:05It's totally East London.
29:07She's giving me the bitch from Shoreditch.
29:10Cheryl Hall.
29:12You're not gonna get this candy.
29:14I'm representing for all the Essex girls.
29:16We've got a glitz and glam classy white dress.
29:19I've got a spray tan that's patchy, you know.
29:21I just need to let it settle a bit.
29:23I'm being a blonde bombshell because that's who I am.
29:26She puts the sex in Essex?
29:28Yeah.
29:29Why not?
29:30I am feeling confident.
29:33I'm an Essex girl strutting up and down a high street.
29:35I'm browsing the shops for my next look.
29:37See you at the sugar hut.
29:38Sugar slut.
29:40Mmm.
29:42Next, something wrong.
29:44Do I make you horny, baby?
29:46I wanted to go as the most iconic thing in Birmingham
29:48and that is the Birmingham Bull Ring.
29:51Yes!
29:51I've got my huge horns, I've got my nose ring
29:54and I'm strutting that runway as high as well.
29:56As hard as I can.
29:57Does this nose ring make my ass look big?
30:02Bollocks.
30:04Blue hydrangea.
30:05I'm representing Belfast.
30:07The Harlins and Wolf cranes helped build the Titanic
30:09and also, my dad and my grandad worked on them.
30:12Ulti no crane.
30:15This hair is perfectly coiffed.
30:17The outfit is stoned head to toe.
30:20And I'm wearing 150 ply ostrich feather.
30:23No crane, no game.
30:25No.
30:26Up next, the queen of Camden town.
30:28Bag of chips.
30:29Amy Housewine.
30:32I'm staggering down that runway.
30:34I've just been on the piss.
30:37Hey Valerie!
30:38She's been the walk of shame from my place last night.
30:40Oh dear.
30:41My neighbourhood, baby, listen.
30:43I love my little neon dress.
30:45Got my cigarette in my wig.
30:48Oh yes, Amy Winehouse is here.
30:50She's gone back to black.
30:52Black to crack, by the way, that walk.
30:55Up next, the Vivian.
30:56She's our house scouse.
30:59My hometown look is giving you the biggest Liverpool icon there is.
31:02Pete Burns.
31:03This look is encapsulating everything Liverpool is about.
31:06Music, fashion, gender bending.
31:08But is she dead or alive?
31:10Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
31:13Vinegar Strokes.
31:14I'm serving queen of London town.
31:17I've got the Thames just covering my midriff.
31:20Everybody's talking about vinegar.
31:23Up north, we're serving two lovely Camden towns.
31:26And down south, we're serving a lovely Peckham.
31:28I'm repping London on the runway.
31:30And it feels amazing.
31:32Thames, Thames, Thames across the board.
31:35Oh, shut up!
31:36Oh my God.
31:38That's amazing.
31:39Garthie Kendall.
31:41Meow.
31:42I'm embodying all the fierceness of my hometown.
31:44Red Leicester cheese and the Leicester Tigers.
31:46On the runway, I am bricking it.
31:47But I'm doing my best to serve my fiercest runway walk.
31:49Tigers are scary, but a little pussy never hurt anyone.
31:53Go team.
31:54Yes, go Tigers.
31:55Up next, Scaredy Cat.
31:57And she's the queen of Wiltshire.
32:00Hippie dippie knows she better do.
32:04So my hometown look is mythology, I guess, with nymphs and little robins and flowers.
32:10I am the goddess of the forest.
32:12I am owning what the cat dragged in.
32:14I've been pulling through the bushes and scraping through the mud all my way to the runway.
32:18She has no problem showing off her twigs and berries.
32:21Can you imagine the size of a bush?
32:22Oh my God.
32:24Divina De Campo.
32:25I just want to play on those tit trumpets.
32:28Well, Alan, good to know.
32:31I am bringing Briggows on acid.
32:35So I've got myself my cup of tea from Yorkshire.
32:37I've got my Yorkshire pudding.
32:38I've got the whole horn section.
32:40And I am ready for a swing dance.
32:42Let's do this.
32:43My looks really stand out.
32:45Pure panto.
32:46And it's pure British.
32:47I wonder if she loves tea bagging.
32:50What's that mean, Alan?
32:52I'll show you.
32:52Come to my dressing room.
32:57The category is Queen Elizabeth Realness.
33:03First up, Crystal.
33:05Welcome to Tuckingham Palace.
33:07I'm giving you military dominatrix.
33:10I'm going to crush you with my colonial might.
33:14There is so much detail in this jacket.
33:17The epaulettes.
33:18The medals are actual replicas.
33:19The feather in the hat.
33:20The patch.
33:21Everything is thought through.
33:23And I am feeling fierce and in control.
33:26I can see her Prince Albert from here.
33:29Cheryl Hall.
33:31I'm getting a royal flush.
33:33I am serving Queen Liz going to a royal function.
33:38It's a little understated, but still classy.
33:40I put my own Cheryl spin on it and added the touch of pearls
33:44down the trim just to give it a little zhuzh up.
33:46Move over, Olivia Colman.
33:48There's a new queen in town.
33:49She takes the man out of Olivia Colman.
33:55Sham Ting Wang.
33:57She's really putting a stamp on this competition.
34:00Have decided to go as the iconic first-class stamp.
34:04I am walking down the runway in a cage of foam and cardboard.
34:09I think she's being profiled.
34:13Stamp, stamp, stamp.
34:15Lick me.
34:16The royal wave.
34:18Blue hydrangea.
34:19Rue, she's so thin, she weighs just about a pound.
34:24I am serving you Queen Elizabeth money.
34:28This is a handmade dress giving you bronze, silver, and I'm going to take the gold.
34:32If that's any higher, I can see her tuppence.
34:34You can't.
34:36I'm taking Queen Elizabeth and I'm making her Instagram ready.
34:38The Queen doesn't need to carry money.
34:40But if she did, she'd be carrying me in her coin purse.
34:43She must have a splitting headache.
34:46Bag of chips.
34:47Everything's coming up roses.
34:49I am serving late 70s, early 80s Queen Elizabeth realness.
34:54I am loving my pink flowers.
34:56I look half Queen Elizabeth, half Dunbridge from Harry Potter.
35:00Bow down to your queen.
35:03Oh, Queenie.
35:04Oh, filthy queen.
35:06The Vivian.
35:08Are you mocking kidding me?
35:09I'm giving you Queen Elizabeth walking round Balmoral,
35:13and she's caught a few ducks out there as well.
35:15Of course, she's wearing wellies, granny tights,
35:17a little plaid skirt, poncho, headscarf.
35:20I am just living for this look.
35:22There must be a mistake.
35:23I think this is George Washington.
35:26You're a duck in disgrace.
35:29Then I get strokes.
35:31Now that is the biggest pearl necklace I've ever seen.
35:33Really?
35:34Yeah.
35:35Trust me.
35:36I'm serving 70s summer elegance in this gorgeous yellow polka dot
35:41caftan with a turban to match.
35:44The Queen would award this on one of her royal world tours visiting
35:47Africa and the Middle East.
35:49I feel fabulous.
35:51Is caftanistan part of the commonwealth?
35:54Yes, yes it is.
35:55Oh, good.
35:56Gothi Kendall.
35:57She's crowning.
35:59Someone had to say it.
36:00The look that I am serving is fresh, young, 1950s Queen Elizabeth.
36:04I am giving you regal realness waving to all my royal subjects.
36:07And I'm sure Queen Elizabeth has a few fishnet types that are stoned.
36:10She's so sassy.
36:12Yes.
36:12She's so sassy.
36:14Scaredy Cat.
36:15Aww.
36:16Aww.
36:16Don't be a dummy.
36:17I am serving you pissed off f***** off.
36:25Looks like somebody missed a royal nap.
36:27Oh.
36:27I am the ultra baby queen of the competition.
36:30And the Queen was once a baby, so it makes sense.
36:34Mummy always loved Margaret better.
36:38Davina De Campo.
36:39Regal housewives of Britannia.
36:43My inspiration was the star in the garter.
36:46I am feeling poised, like I'm gliding on air and I'm trying to be as regal as possible.
36:53And just so that you know, I really am wearing a garter.
36:56This is less Dame Helen Mirren and more Dame Helen Mirren.
37:00Wow.
37:05Welcome ladies.
37:06Michelle, do you recognize anyone?
37:10Actually, I recognize quite a few of these girls.
37:12Vinegar was my dance partner and everybody's talking about Jamie on the West End.
37:17But, on camera, I judge the way I'll judge everybody else.
37:22Fairly, squarely, and honestly.
37:24Now, when I call your name, please step forward.
37:28Crystal.
37:30Blue Hydrangea.
37:33Scaredy Cat.
37:35Davina De Campo.
37:38You are all safe.
37:42You may leave the stage.
37:48Ladies, you represent the tops and bottoms of the week.
37:53Now it's time for the judges' critiques.
37:56First up, Cheryl Hall.
37:58Hello, Cheryl.
37:59Hi, babe.
37:59My mother's from Essex.
38:01Oh, then she's a true girl to my heart.
38:03This is the thing.
38:03That first look is exactly what she would wear when she would pick me up from school when I was
38:07five or six years old.
38:08No, I'm just kidding.
38:09I love the detail.
38:10I love the toilet paper.
38:10And the more fully formed character in that first look just wasn't present for the second one.
38:15Your Elizabeth look, it was a downer after that first one.
38:19And you didn't have a purse.
38:21The biggest thing about Queen Elizabeth is she always has a purse.
38:24And it almost felt like you didn't know what to do with your hands because you didn't have that purse.
38:27Yeah.
38:28With your second look, it would be lovely to have you just oomped it up a little bit more.
38:32We want to see more holes.
38:34Do you, Alan?
38:35Oh, please.
38:37Not dressed as the queen, please.
38:39Up next, something warm.
38:42When you came out in your first look, it was ballsy, it was big, and it was drag.
38:46And that's a great way to make an impression for your first time out on the main stage.
38:50I loved the stamp.
38:52And when you turned around and had Lick Me, I mean, what a twist.
38:55That was up there with Shawshank Redemption when it comes to twists.
38:58I was like, I didn't see that coming.
39:00Boom.
39:01I think some of the other queens could take some inspiration from you and twist it.
39:03Play with it.
39:04Have fun with it.
39:05The creativity here is totally outside the box.
39:07And it's why I watch and I love this show.
39:10That's wonderful.
39:12Next up, bag of chips.
39:13Hello.
39:14Hello, darling.
39:15We're very near Camden, so we're around the corner from each other.
39:19See you on Grindr.
39:22Love the Amy Winehouse thing because I understand the way of honouring Amy for us Brits is by doing that.
39:27It could be sacrilegious in other cultures.
39:29Yeah.
39:29But to us Brits, that's the way to do it.
39:31Yeah, hats off.
39:32Oh, thank you so much.
39:33The Queen.
39:34I love the disdained look on your face.
39:36You got that?
39:37Because I've met the Queen a couple of times and she does not crack a smile.
39:41Rue, there was this big concert done for the Queen outside Buckingham Palace,
39:44and halfway through she put earplugs in.
39:48Funny, I've got earplugs in right now.
39:51You're playing the 1970s Queen, but actually came out in her 70s.
39:56I felt like you were a little bit old looking.
39:58That's just my natural face, sorry.
40:01But it's very pretty, it's a very together look for you.
40:03Thank you so much.
40:04Up next, the Vivian.
40:06Hello.
40:07The Pete Burns look was Vivian Westwood.
40:09But you were wearing flats.
40:11They were Pete's favourite shoes, pirate boots.
40:13And you're wearing flats right now, aren't you darling?
40:16Yeah, but I am in Balmoral.
40:17Yeah, but you know, you are on Drag Race.
40:19I know, it was a bold move.
40:21Very risky.
40:22I knew straight away it was Pete Burns.
40:24He was always wearing those boots,
40:26which is probably the only reason I could forgive those flats.
40:29Your Queen look was fantastic.
40:31You've got prosthesis, you've got...
40:33I have her, this is my face.
40:34Stop it.
40:35This is my face.
40:36That's your nose.
40:37Trust me.
40:39No, I don't mean that rudely.
40:41So what you have is full makeup on.
40:43Just makeup, yeah.
40:43With highlighter.
40:45Uh-huh.
40:45And there's lighter contour, but there's no darker contour.
40:47So I don't ever see it kind of like that.
40:50You've literally changed your entire face
40:53by coming out here like that.
40:55Michelle, that's her nose.
40:57Apparently.
40:59It's like Daniel Day-Lewis, transformation levels.
41:02Like from your first look to this look,
41:04you're very seasoned evidently.
41:05And it's just...
41:07I just got to lay back and just watch and enjoy.
41:09So thank you for that.
41:09I enjoyed watching you lay back.
41:12Goodness me.
41:13Up next, Vinegar Strokes.
41:15Hi, Vinegar.
41:16Your London look, once I figured out what that blue squiggle was,
41:19because I thought it was a snake,
41:20and then we figured out it was the River Thames.
41:22It just wasn't specific enough to really tell the story for me.
41:25I just thought with all the things in London,
41:27you go for the opening scene in EastEnders.
41:32You know what I mean?
41:351970s Queen, I love this color on you.
41:37You're going to wear a certain shoe, monitor the length,
41:39and say this could be a little bit longer, you know,
41:41make sure it's not wrinkled when you come out, things like that.
41:43I just love watching you.
41:44You emanate love, and I adore that.
41:46The looks for me, I just didn't connect with them.
41:48I just felt a little like I was wanting more.
41:50I'm looking for the you in the charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent.
41:53Well, just to tell you, I fucking got it.
41:55All right.
41:56No doubt, baby.
41:57It's coming. Don't worry.
41:58I feel it. I know.
42:01Garthy Kendall.
42:03So I don't know a lot about Lester apart from red Lester cheese,
42:05so I totally got the color of your skin.
42:08We could tell you were nervous.
42:09You got to where you had to go, and then you gave us a,
42:11and then you moved on, and then you went,
42:14I almost feel like you did feel more confident.
42:16In this silhouette.
42:17In time, that confidence stuff will come.
42:20You just need to keep focusing on it
42:21and know that you have something different to everybody else.
42:24Yeah.
42:25Listen, I understand being nervous
42:26because it's an energy.
42:28You can use it as a tailwind.
42:29And I have to do that every time I go on stage,
42:31every time I step in front of a camera.
42:32I'm trying to ride it, and I'm trying to hide it.
42:35My hope is that you find a way to use it as a friend
42:38and see it as a friend.
42:39I've just got to ride it and hide the nerves.
42:40They're a wonderful tailwind.
42:42Yeah, cool. Thank you.
42:43I think that's lovely advice.
42:44When in doubt, ride it.
42:46It's a story of my life.
42:48Ride that tailwind.
42:51Thank you, ladies.
42:52I think we've heard enough.
42:53While you untuck in the workroom,
42:55the judges and I will deliberate.
42:58You may leave the stage.
43:03Davina, I can tell you're a little bit miffed.
43:05Yeah, well, you know, I took some risks.
43:07Like, I'm not a luck queen.
43:09That isn't my thing.
43:10It's okay to be safe.
43:12It's okay.
43:13I didn't come here to be okay, though.
43:15I came here to shine.
43:17This shit is way out of my comfort zone.
43:21And I don't think I've ever been so stressed in my life.
43:23You've been doing drag longer than she's been born.
43:26Believe it, bitch. Believe it.
43:30Come on, girl.
43:31Bye-bye.
43:32Welcome back.
43:33Come on, girl.
43:35Squeeze.
43:36Well, what happened?
43:38Well, fuck this pink hat.
43:39Oh.
43:41Oh.
43:41I'm clearly in the bottom.
43:43Really?
43:44What did they say to you?
43:45They said that this one was sold with confidence and my hometown one wasn't.
43:49Which is weird, because I felt a lot less confident about this than I did with the hometown one.
43:53Right.
43:54Oh, Goffy.
43:55Babe.
43:56It looks like you're missing half your outfit.
44:00So, what did they say to you, Vinagay?
44:01So, they weren't feeling both the looks overall.
44:04I mean, I definitely think that I sold the personality and the kind of whimsical heart that I wanted to
44:09show in that.
44:10But, um...
44:12Aww.
44:14It's just annoying because, like, you worked so hard to get to somewhere, even if it's not here, somewhere.
44:20Girl, you should be so proud. You set me up now.
44:22You should be so proud of yourself.
44:24I'm really proud of what I did for the first one.
44:26You should be.
44:27I think I did something which was true to me.
44:29And to think this could be the last day is just, like, so fucking heartbreaking.
44:33But, um...
44:35I'm fucking happy with what I did today.
44:38So, Cheryl, how do you feel about the comments from the judges?
44:42To be honest, I will hold my hands up and say, I loved the Essex look.
44:47Because that is 100% me.
44:50The Queen Elizabeth look.
44:51I'm guessing it just didn't read what they wanted it to.
44:54Or I just didn't play it up enough.
44:57Cheryl Hole.
44:59Just a pretty pink coat, isn't it?
45:02Am I being stupid?
45:04Right, we can all speculate and all...
45:06You know what I mean?
45:06We can speculate all night, but we're not Mystic Meg.
45:09So, I need to get ready for a lip sync.
45:12So...
45:12Same.
45:13Let's do it.
45:13Should we do a toast and an imaginary toast?
45:16Season one.
45:17Season one.
45:17To the cast of season one.
45:18Cheers, everybody!
45:20Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
45:21The Cheryl Hole salute.
45:22Up your bum, no babies!
45:23Yay!
45:26Oh, I hate myself sometimes.
45:29Don't make us agree with you, doll.
45:30Don't make us agree.
45:33All right, just between us girlfriends, what do you think?
45:36Starting with Cheryl Hole.
45:39Cheryl Hole had me at Essex.
45:41The little details.
45:42The splotches of the tan on the white dress.
45:45The little piece of toilet paper stuck on her shoe.
45:47And then, her queen.
45:48Not having a handbag was a very big assault on the legend of Queen Elizabeth.
45:53Even people from Pacoima in California would know to put a handbag on Queen Elizabeth.
46:00All right, let's move on down to Something Wong.
46:03When he came out of that bull, it was like a colossus.
46:05I just couldn't take my eyes off him.
46:06It was.
46:08But this is what I'm here for.
46:09This is why I want to be a judge on this show.
46:10To see things like that.
46:12Still can't get it out of my head.
46:13Brilliant.
46:13So you're traumatized by it.
46:15And then, the brilliance in humor and creativity in her stamp look.
46:20That was fun.
46:22It was costume-y, but fun.
46:24The way she had fun with it when she walked across the stage.
46:26I guess what I'm saying is it was fun.
46:27Did you think it was fun?
46:29Bag of chips.
46:31Bag of chips came out as Amy Winehouse.
46:32You knew straight away she was Camden Town.
46:35She came out as her 1970s queen.
46:38Actually, in her 70s.
46:40And that's what confused me.
46:41She's incredibly charming.
46:42She's incredibly entertaining.
46:43And I want that in a drag queen.
46:44I want a drag queen to take care of me.
46:46I want to be able to sit back and not have to do any work.
46:48I want to be taken on a journey.
46:50Oh, Christ.
46:51Typical man.
46:53I love the Amy Winehouse.
46:54I love the Queen Elizabeth.
46:56Polished?
46:57You know, time will tell.
46:59All right, let's move on down to the Vivian.
47:02It was like Pete Burns was reincarnated from head to toe, literally with those boots.
47:06I know the flat shoe.
47:08And I know, Michelle, you were like one of those cats in Greece when you saw it.
47:12But I'm going to be Pete Burns.
47:14I'm going to wear a flat shoe.
47:15I just thought, oh, I like that.
47:17I found it sexy.
47:19I found it hot.
47:21I found it.
47:22You all right, Ellen?
47:23I did.
47:23I mean, listen, I'm here to be honest.
47:25The hunting queen was fantastic.
47:27Yes, I'm going to say it again.
47:28It looked like she had a freaking fake nose on.
47:31But that is the power.
47:32Leave it, leave it, Michelle.
47:33That's the power of makeup.
47:34And I think the Vivian probably had the biggest transformation on this stage from Pete Burns to Queen Elizabeth.
47:42Vinegar strokes.
47:43I feel naughty every time I say that.
47:45The London look was just off the mark.
47:48So that first look was a fail for me.
47:51The second look, that was the 1970s queen.
47:53When you see photos of the queen in the 70s, it's proper out there.
47:57You know, she could be like slap dropping in Studio 54 with these gold prints and stuff.
48:02When she said to me, I do have that fucking uniqueness.
48:05Don't you worry about it.
48:06I was like, yes, yes, yes, yes.
48:07That's great.
48:08So show us.
48:09Yeah.
48:09Well, this would be the time to show.
48:10Yeah.
48:11I was a little late to the party.
48:12All right, let's move on down to gothy Kendall, who's absolutely adorable, but I was really baffled by that runway
48:19presentation.
48:20When she came out in that first outfit as the tiger, she looks like an estate agent that's gone to
48:25Regent's Park Zoo and said, can you face paint me face for 50p?
48:28And then she's gone back into work and gone, what do you think, girls?
48:32You know?
48:33And then the 50s queen came out and I was completely lost.
48:37That's the one that you see on the crown.
48:39It's just there's so much there that wasn't there.
48:41It seems like her nerves or something got the best of her.
48:44When I was 22, I would have probably come out in a tiger costume and been like.
48:52All right.
48:53Let's all do it together.
48:54Okay.
48:55One, two, three.
48:58Sorry, I was so slow.
48:59Silence.
49:00I've made my decision.
49:02Bring back my girls.
49:05Welcome back, ladies.
49:07Now, I know how hard each of you worked to get here.
49:11So, no matter what happens next, you are and will forever be my legendary children.
49:18Now, based on your runway presentations, I've made some decisions.
49:25Bag of chips.
49:27You're safe.
49:28Thank you, everyone.
49:32Sam Ting Wang.
49:34Sign still delivered.
49:36You're safe.
49:37I can't.
49:39The Vivian.
49:40This week, you beat the competition by a nose.
49:46Condragulations.
49:46You are the winner of this week's challenge.
49:48Yay!
49:51And you've won our very first, Rue Peter Badge.
50:03Wear it with pride.
50:05You may join the other girls.
50:06Thank you all so much.
50:08Woohoo!
50:09This is legendary.
50:11I've just made history.
50:15Cheryl Hull.
50:16As Queen of Essex, you were vajazzling.
50:19But your Queen Elizabeth lacked luster.
50:22Here.
50:23Vinegar Strokes.
50:25Your Thames was tepid.
50:28And as Her Majesty, you served a bit of a travesty.
50:34Gothi Ken Doll.
50:35On the runway.
50:36It was a case of crouching tiger, hidden drag queen.
50:42Cheryl Hull.
50:45You're safe.
50:50You may join the other girls.
50:52Thank you so much.
50:59That means Vinegar and Gothi, you are up for elimination.
51:05I'm so gutted that I'm in the bottom on a look challenge when I'm a look queen.
51:08I'm so gutted.
51:10Two queens stand before me.
51:13In a moment, I'll ask one of you to shantay, which means stay.
51:17And one of you to sashay away.
51:21Now, I've consulted with the judges.
51:23But the final decision is mine to make.
51:26Ladies, this is your last chance to impress me and save yourself from elimination.
51:36The time has come.
51:38We're going to lip sync for your life.
51:44I don't know what this bitch has got, but I've got one thing to say about this lip sync.
51:49Welcome to the Vinegar Stroke Show.
51:52Good luck.
51:53And don't fuck it up.
52:10this is mine.
52:12This is mine, here's that I'm just a bit too far.
52:13The time has come.
52:16This is mine.
52:17This is mine.
52:18It's mine.
52:18I've seen it live.
52:21This is mine.
52:23One, don't pick up the phone
52:25You know he's only calling cause he's drunk and alone
52:27Two, don't let him in
52:29You have to kick him out again
52:31Three, don't be as strange
52:33You know you're gonna wake up in his bed in the morning
52:35And if you're under him
52:37You ain't getting over him
52:39I got no rules, I count him
52:43I got no rules, I count him
52:46I got no rules, I count him
52:50I got no rules, I count him
52:55I got no rules, I count him
52:57Practice makes perfect, I'm still trying to learn near my heart
53:04One, don't pick up the phone
53:06You know he's only calling cause he's drunk and alone
53:08Two, don't let him in
53:09You have to kick him out again
53:11Three, don't be as strange
53:13You know you're gonna wake up in his bed in the morning
53:15And if you're under him
53:17You ain't getting over him
53:19I got no rules, I count him
53:23I got no rules, I count him
53:27I got no rules, I count him
53:32You're getting over him
53:49Ladies, I've made my decision.
53:56Vinegar Strokes, shantay you stay.
54:02Thank you sir, thank you so much, that means the world to me, thank you.
54:06Here, you may join the other girls.
54:15Gothi Kendal, my dear, remember, you are a champion and we're gonna hear you roar.
54:24Now, sashay away.
54:27Thank you so much, thank you.
54:33Miss Kendal, Miss Kendal.
54:43I'm gutted to be the first person from Drag Race UK.
54:46If I could change anything about my time, I would have come in the door guns blazing.
54:50I feel like my confidence definitely let me down.
54:52I'm so proud that all the hard work, all the energy and everything that I put into my drag
54:56is the reason that I'm called Arugo.
