There's a lot of rumours going around about who we're potentially going to see for Drag Race UK and there's loads of iconic obvious choices, so who would YOU like to see?

My top choice would be Karen Dunbar wub.gif

I would DIE for a Jade Goody or Nikki Grahame, that classic era of Big Brother is something so British that I would love to be represented!

Also maybe one of the classic soap characters like Deirdre Barlow or Peggy Mitchell would be iconic.

i already have a feeling that anyone who does Gemma in Snatch Game is automatically guaranteed a LSFYL

she just seems like a hard character to nail

Gemma Collins feels like one that's so obvious but would be so hard to get right laugh.gif Like she's hilarious but I can imagine someone thinking it's enough to be like "so girls it's the GC".

Omg imagine someone doing Rebecca More tho I'd howl

I predict there will be a lot of bad/overdone Gemma Collins and Katie Price attempts, along with the following;

Nigela Lawson
Helena Bonham Carter
Miriam Margolyes
Jane MacDonald
Shirley Bassey

Angela Lansbury or Julie Andrews. I think both could work quite well, especially if doing Jessica Fletcher/Mary Poppins/Maria von Trapp.

Catherine Tate or one of her characters - Nan or Lauren in particular.

Victoria Beckham/Posh spice.

Dawn French/Geraldine Granger.

The more I think about it, the longer my wishlist becomes. I hope the first season is successful and that we'll get many more seasons in the future!

I don't think they're actually allowed to do characters on Drag Race but ik others have got around it by saying they're the actress but just doing the character (for example Stacy Layne Matthews as Monique but clearly as Precious' mum). They could easily say they're Dawn French but do Geraldine, that'd be iconic as would Lauren or Nan *.*

i second jill tyrell lew! that'd be EVERYTHING

reading all these suggestions makes me realise how completely british and british only these 'characters' would be. like when i watch the US snatch game i pretty much know all the people being parodied but an american watching the UK version will have no idea who a peggy mitchell or a tracy beaker is and yet they're so ingrained into the public psyche here. the smaller the name / more niche, the funnier they'll be. like i already know i'd find a parody of kim woodburn 10x funnier than adele for example. i can't wait!!

That's the thing I love about Snatch Game, like Jinkx's totally out of nowhere Little Edie that became one of the defining performances, I love when the most random characters crop up and end up being amazing laugh.gif Like imagine someone just doing Jade Goody's mum and being incred lmao

Kim Woodburn
Dot Cotton
Janet Street Porter
Mary Berry
Peggy Mitchell

Miriam Margolies
Amy Winehouse
Stacey Solomon
Vanessa Feltz
Pete Burns
Davina McCall
Sharon Osborne
Ann Widdecombe
Natalie Cassidy
Jodie Marsh
Daniella Westbrook
Gillian McKeeth

The Queen

If this is not the Snatch Game line up for the first 3 Seasons of DRUK I will riot.

I'm going to be so disappointed if someone isn't Nigella and doesn't make puns every 30 seconds

Love all the suggestions so far especially Natalie Cassidy. I'd like to add Mel B, Stacey Solomon, Martine McCutcheon or even Karen Matthews.
