Posted July 19, 20195 yr PRE-SEASON CHAT / EPISODE ONE DISCUSSION RuPaul brings the award-winning global phenomenon to the UK for the first time. Ten of the country’s most fabulous drag queens will compete in the Olympics of drag in the hope that RuPaul, queen of queens, will crown them as the UK’s first Drag Race Superstar. Gonna trial individual episode threads for this - apparently the premiere has been brought forward to late August so just over a month to go!! Hype, we can have the non-spoiler pre-season stuff and eventual first episode bits here!
August 4, 20195 yr I didn't realise we were so close — it makes sense though. It does seem like they have started hyping it more on Twitter recently. How do we think it's going to do? A big success for the brand as well as BBC? I just hope the quality is just the same as the US version, if not better with all the potential UK references.
August 5, 20195 yr Author Yep Jake, it's still a channel kind of but it's not a proper channel on the TV, the content just goes on iplayer to watch on a certain day rather than it being broadcast on TV say at Thursday on 9. I was hoping for August as rumoured but I had a feeling it'd be later when we didn't get any news by now :lol: Still hype *.*

And then possibly the Canadian version? Edited August 5, 20195 yr by blacksquare
August 7, 20195 yr Omg I can't wait. I've been having a bit of drag withdrawl - I've been keeping clear of spoiler threads/any videos to do with RPDR. I can't believe it's only a couple months until the first season of Drag Race UK!
August 21, 20195 yr the queen i’ve taken to the most coming out of the starting blocks is baga chipz - i just love that kind of humour and her deirdre.. omg! they all look kinda promising though, looks like we’re in for a good season! Edited August 21, 20195 yr by kye
August 21, 20195 yr Can't wait! Although not the most diverse of casts considering how diverse a country we are. Excited regardless though ~
August 21, 20195 yr Blu is the only British drag queen I follow on instagram so I'm excited as visually she's incredible. Let's hope it doesn't turn into the Silky situation as she had been the only one I followed prior to season 11 :') Edited August 21, 20195 yr by Conanderella
August 21, 20195 yr Looks good. Excited to see what Baga and Crystal bring to the table. Anyone know if this is Crystal Lubrikunt? Because I've seen her live but I don't remember what she looks like at all lmao.

August 21, 20195 yr Author I loooove everything about Baga APART from the fact she's a massive Tory :nocheer: Blu is the other I'm most interested in too, but I feel like she could go either way - hopefully she's not too much style over substance as I loooove her look so much. The Vivienne is amazing too from what I know and her Kim Woodburn made me howl :rofl:
