Patsy Palmer is so camp but I do feel like she might be a bit of a token boring soap star. I think she could go either way but she definitely has it in her to have some camp moments. Jojo Siwa I feel is going to be kind of a camp annoying villain, not like nasty but annoying/means well but the house are fed up of her and she makes the final bc the fans will come her entertaining. Her, Danny and Trisha are my faves from the launch, Danny has been one of my top picks to do the show so I hope he’s as iconic as I think.

Apparently Suzie wins, matchups prior to that are: Hormona vs Acacia - Acacia wins Joella vs Lana - Joella wins Lydia vs Suzie - Liza with a Z - Suzie wins Arrietty vs Lucky - Lucky wins Crystal vs Kori - Kori wins Acacia vs Joella vs Suzie - Suzie wins Kori vs Lucky - Kori wins Suzie getting the Liza song is so convenient lmfao, I will piss if Kori did the final lipsync as Kori Toot lmfaoooo

Seems to only be 2, challenges are Snatch Game and talent show. Earlier tea said the finale was a Lalaparuza type thing so I presume we could have more finalists than usual but perhaps it will be double elims for these two episodes or something, we do also have earlier tea that said a wildcard will come back after the merge and it could be from the merge stage or the groups stage and supposedly the judges just arbitrarily decide. Imagine someone skipping the merge and winning, camp I agree I kind of like the format, after AS9’s non elim dragged and AS8 wasn’t the best, something a bit more chaotic is exactly what it needs. It is a bit weird that the queens will only do 5 challenges really but sticking to the staple challenges and switching up the cast every few episodes I think will combat filler episodes or it feeling like it’s dragging.

I saw yesterday, thrilled for Van Goth mother!! 4 comedy episodes in a row for Canada is rough lmfao

I did kind of expect Soa flopping tbh, especially when we knew she’s 2nd out, it just seemed like she didn’t need to or shouldn’t have come back oop. Like she’s just done GAS, she won the lipsync episode, and this is such a strong crop I did fear it would go this way for her especially since I swear her and Nicky really don’t get on

The way we’re blessed with a car crash Cynthia Snatch Game again

Apparently this is the cast: Trisha Goddard Mickey Rourke Donna Preston Jojo Siwa Chris Hughes Jack P Shepherd Patsy Palmer Daley Thompson Ella Rae Wise Cheney Hawkes Ella Rae Wise Angelica Bell Michael Fabricant Danny Beard I was unsure and I still dunno about keeping up with it religiously due to the past couple of series, but I am so here for Danny, Patsy and Trisha!!! Jojo is a huge signing too and should be very interesting to see.

Why does Vicki coming back seem to be more about Spencer, as if we needed an excuse to have Alfie on screen every 5 minutes

Nearly every comment I’m seeing online is saying Jewels totally ate Onya up and I don’t agree, I think it was absolutely worth a double shantay especially with the tone of the episode. I will just always always prefer a lipsync with soul and feeling like Onya’s, she gave it her all in her own unique way with electricity and charm and you feel in every word and movement how much she loves what she does, whilst Jewels gave a flawless all dancing performance and didn’t miss a trick, she is such a dynamic performer. They gave opposite performances but both at the top of their game in their “genre” of lipsync. Really they could have done a top 2 lipsync between Sam and Suzie (or Lexi, the comments on her makeover were BS) but those two to 1 Thing would have been so cursed

Top 2 lipsync song is ABRACADABRA!!!! No word on the top 2 yet Onya is going to f***ing devour this

We all know exactly why, because she ardently supports Palestine which for some reason is completely not allowed in Hollywood despite Gal Gadot spending the entire movie promotional trail screaming from the rooftops about Israel

Warm is absolutely brilliant, it feels like it could have been a Stacie Orrico single in the 00s and I mean that in the best way.

Avani and Priya were both outstanding today, that was an excellent episode. Such an important thing to touch on and finally it’s making use of the younger cast in a way that is actually compelling.

Laura Thorn needs to dye her hair :(

I absolutely love that the show is blatantly trying so hard to get her to have a Loosey Laduca crash out trajectory and she’s just here enjoying the challenges like it’s her high school improv club, love that for her

Lana kind of wiped the floor with Sam in that lipsync?! For the second week in a row, Lana didn’t really deserve the bottom placement either, she did better than Suzie in the dance and better than Jewels in the storytelling, they just kind of went off track record and obviously Lana is the one without a win and 3 bottom placements prior to this episode. But it should always go on this challenge and the lipsync I think, otherwise what’s the point of a competition? Although I guess my opinion would change if it was someone I loved in Sam’s position, I just think that it should always come down to pretty much the episode. I think if the lipsync is close, fair enough go to track record, but when it wasn’t even close I think just go for the shock elim! Honestly it could have been Suzie and Sam anyway and I wonder what they would have done then. Suzie has such a weird edit, because they care about her enough to make a storyline out of her being a front runner they’re all jealous of but they’ve not really given her the track record to be the queen they’re all thinking she is? Sam was flat out the worst and her runway didn’t fit the prompt at all as it was absolutely stunning I think she takes herself far too seriously in drag, I find her personality so warm and joyous on the show but then when she does a runway or challenge performance, it’s just too polished, too serious, she can do a character just fine as shown by last week and Snatch Game but when she’s herself in drag it’s just not there, I just want her to let go of this polished pageant vibe, more of her out of drag personality needs to seep into her drag a bit and I’d warm to her more.

Beth, Tatu and Urban Trad were my fierce top 3 in 2003, what a year

I absolutely love her run bc she went from giving nothing to using like 4 episodes of her run to absolutely demolish and make her mark to be such a perfect All Stars candidate, we’ve not really seen anything like that especially with such a strong win as her only top placement. Like I said I do think she will win the Lala too, obv depends on the songs but if we look at the lipsyncs this season I’m not sure who would really threaten Lydia, maybe Lana at her best with the right songs. Speaking of, songs for the Lala include Liza With A Z, Blow Me (One Last Kiss) and Training Season.

A few assorted new bits with the tea checker coming out, these are from reliable sources but of course not 100% confirmed or necessarily right: Talent show is a top 2 of Fontana and perhaps Zahirah, there is a fake out elimination which is Naomy but Ru announces the beaver twist and declares a non elimination. Naomy later places in the top for Snatch Game Gawdland is the front runner, Fontana sends home Minty episode 4 Melinda is eliminated on a design challenge Peppa and A’Whora were on but were cut/changed their mind

Oh yeah I forgot that was coming up, if Joel met him on a bender and was off his face and something happened, it makes sense that he has a hazy memory of potentially meeting him before as he seemed to almost recognise him. I have to say I also hate this human trafficking story, I think they did quite well with making Grace feel human, like a well rounded character who made sense to be back, and now she’s shoving essentially her niece who had confided in her about abuse into sex slavery?! Isabelle Smith is of course incredible, but nobody needs to see Frankie go through even more trauma. I suppose that’s the point, Grace built a relationship with her so it hits harder, but idk. People have been saying Grace is a double agent and will bring the ring down but I don’t think so, she is exploiting teenagers even if she was and it’s kind of irredeemable for a character that had a really good development arc. I know she’s always been a criminal/gangster and killed people but this just feels like there is no way back. I kind of feel like they are going to have Rex be the hero to set up his redemption arc and then this can only really lead to an exit for Grace.

The finale films March 27th

Absolutely horrible, I hope Ciara and her kids are safe and doing ok.

Nicola Mitchell being a classic East End mob boss is so camp, she is the best thing to happen to this show in a long time.
