RuPaul's Drag Race UK...

For this week's Maxi Challenge,

you need to take your beautiful mums

and sisters and transform them

into sickening drag queens!

God, me little mum's just

walked into Drag Race!

What the hell is going on?

Cheryl Hole and Sissy Hole.

I'm not a big fan of spangled

bodysuits. Cop-out territory.

Baga Chipz and Sacka Spuds.

Your mum, she looks like

she's going trick-or-treating.

Divina De Campo

and Delisha De Campo.

I honestly didn't know which one

was which and that is amazing.

Divina De Campo, you are the winner

of this week's challenge.

Baga Chipz. Shante, you stay.

Cheryl, sashay away.

My top three queens!

Divina De Campo.

I believe the word is "herstory"

and it's about to be made...

Pull yourself together, lass!

..because I am going to be crowned

the UK's first Drag Race Superstar.

Ting!

The Vivienne.

This journey has just been

absolutely out of this world.

I'm drippin'!

I am gunning for that crown

so them other two can...

MOUTHING

Baga Chipz.

I'm the first UK Drag Race Superstar

because I'm Baga Chipz, bitch!

The lady's not for turning.

In the words of Gabrielle,

dreams do come true!

CHEERING, WHOOPING AND LAUGHING

Oh, my God!

Cheryl!

We are back in the workroom after

the elimination and I have just sent

Cheryl packing. I'm going

to miss my little Hole.

"I'm all..."

Shall I do it in her voice?

"I'm all gamed out!

"You finally got rid of me.

Kill it, top three. So proud.

"May the best girl win.

XOXO. Cheryl Hole."

She has done so well.

My opinion of Cheryl has just

completely changed over

the past few weeks.

We've become so close and

she's an amazing queen

with a great heart.

I'm really going to miss her.

Cheryl, I'm going to miss you,

girl, you crazy, dumb bitch.

Bye-bye, my lover!

Love you, baby! Oh!

God, she uses very

cheap lipstick, though.

I have got on with every

girl in this competition.

I love them all to bits.

They are family.

But to be in the top three

with Divina and The Vivienne,

oh, my God, I couldn't

ask for anything better.

How was that lip-syncing?

Has it got you out your little rut?

Like, when you lip-sync as well,

it's not nice, is it? Yeah.

But to win a lip-sync is amazing.

I guess I'll never know

what that feels like.

Sorry about it. Little bitch!

You have never lip-synced,

have you? No.

No, I've never been in t'bottom two.

I want to win against the best

and I want people to go,

"You won because, actually,

you were better."

LAUGHTER

So I'm really pleased that

I've got these two in the final.

Because they are the best.

Divina does deserve to be

here in the final.

We don't always get on

but she's a good queen.

I just think my drag's

a lot more polished.

Now that we've seen our families

as well and me mum has had

a little slice of Drag Race, I feel

like I've got to win it for her now.

Yeah, same. I felt bad for

me mum cos she thought,

because I was in the bottom,

that it was partly her fault

and it wasn't, whatsoever.

At the end of the day,

I love the woman to bits and I'm

so proud of her and I did that

lip-sync just for me mum.

Yeah. At least now you can go on

Halloween as Gomez and Morticia.

And you could come as Cousin Itt.

LAUGHTER

Girls, seriously, well done.

Top three.

It's game on now, girls.

Innit just? Game on.

All jokes aside,

who's winning this?

The UK's first Drag Race Superstar

is about to get crowned.

I'm just glad you were a part of

this experience seeing me crowned,

and thanks for taking part.

We'll see, won't we?

I think I could win this, so

the other girls better watch out.

If you think I've gone through

all these challenges to go home

without a crown,

you can piss right off.

It's the final episode

of RuPaul's Drag Race UK!

Ah!

The winner crowned the UK's

first Drag Race Superstar

will receive an all-expenses-paid

trip to Hollywood

to create their own digital series

with the producers

of RuPaul's Drag Race.

Tonight, with Michelle Visage,

Alan Carr and Graham Norton.

# May the best woman win. #

Dut-dah-dut-dah-dah!

Top three, girls!

It's a new day in the workroom

and it is our last challenge.

We are in the top three

and this is absolutely amazing.

Surreal. Yeah, innit?

Seven queens have gone.

We got rid of them.

We sent seven bitches packing.

Bye!

Look at our badges. Congratulations,

you're part of the trio.

Top three.

Even-stevens, three badges each.

So, really, at this stage, everybody

is on exactly the same level.

We just got to see

how it all pans out.

It all depends on

this week's challenge.

If there's a challenge where we've

got to sing in five different

languages, me and you are fucked!

LAUGHTER

"This week's challenge

is red hair realness."

LAUGHTER

Whatever happens, I can go round and

say, "Well, I was in the top three."

Top three!

Top three, in one...

SIREN WAILS

Her majesty done already has herses.

My top queens. You all right,

babes? You all right?

To plant your flag as the UK's

first Drag Race Superstar,

you need to spread your charisma,

uniqueness, nerve and talent

to the moon and back.

So let the countdown begin.

In three, two, one. Uh-oh!

Whitney Houston, we have a problem.

LAUGHTER

I wonder what that's going to be.

I don't know.

It's spreading it

all across everything, so...

I'm used to that.

LAUGHTER

Hello, hello, hello.

ALL:

Hello!

My top three queens.

Show of hands -

who wants to be the UK's first

Drag Race Superstar?

LAUGHTER

Well, first, you've got to prove

it to me and all of Great Britain.

#DragRaceUK

Now, for your final Maxi Challenge,

you'll be serving us an all-singing,

all-dancing performance of my

classic song Rock It (To The Moon).

Amazing.

How's it go again?

ALL: # To, to, to, to the moon. #

First, you'll compose a solo verse,

destined to rocket you

to superstardom.

Then you'll learn the most demanding

and far-out choreography

of the season.

Bollocks. We're going

to be singing, dancing -

everything I fucked up in the last

girl group challenge, really.

And to add a little cha cha cha

to your dancing and prancing,

you'll be working with the

Strictly sensational AJ Pritchard.

Oh, my God!

Between rehearsals you'll join

Michelle and me on our podcast.

And tomorrow on the main

stage you'll be

lip-syncing for your life

and the crown.

Ladies, the world is watching,

so on behalf of the United Kingdom,

I beseech you, don't fuck it up.

LAUGHTER

Gentlemen, start your engines.

And may the best woman win.

Last challenge! I know. Oh, my God.

What kind of direction are you

going in with your lyrics?

I'm going to be more serious

and have a message.

I don't want to just rely on being

funny all the while.

I'm thinking what I'd want to

hear in a nightclub. Yeah.

But this is going to be

more serious.

Very Born This Way kind of vibe.

Oh, wow, OK. So, yeah.

So you're really going in

with a message?

Yeah, if Baga Chipz can be

in the final three of Drag Race UK

then you can achieve anything.

Because I didn't think

I was going to come this far.

Do you know what? The stakes are

high and there's a lot on the table.

I'm in it to win it!

What part of this

challenge are you dreading,

if you are dreading anything?

Do you know when we did

the Frock Destroyers? That was...

You did the choreography, didn't

you? I did. And that was, like,

hard on me a little bit

but I think this choreography's

going to be like that times ten.

Yeah. Yes.

I sing and I dance. I do.

But the judges already know that,

so there is an added

pressure to that.

And let's address

the elephant in the room.

This is pretty much the same

as the girl group challenge

and I ended up in the bottom.

It was the performance

that let me down.

Hopefully, I've got

faith in my lyrics,

I've just got to smash that

performance and sell it.

I've been doing

drag for nearly 11 years now

and my whole career is boiling down

to this one challenge.

I cannot fuck this up.

Well, look who's here, Michelle.

Who? Baga! Watch your step, darling.

Have a seat there, Baga. Thank you.

Oh, my God, I'm going

to be in the podcast

with RuPaul and Michelle Visage.

Let's do this!

Baga, here you are. Oh, my God.

I feel like I'm still dreaming.

I was like, "If I make, like, week

three - oh, my God, I've made it!"

Really? So, did you bring enough

outfits for the whole span

of the competition?

Apart from the Family Resemblance.

And I think that was proven.

Well, you know, interesting

about Family Resemblance because

there seems to be some unfinished

business with your mother.

I've probably spoken to my mum,

like, seven times in, like,

ten years. Why? Really?

I'm not saying she's a bad mum

or anything, cos she's not.

I was brought up with my nan.

So it's, like, all my teen

years was with my nan

so it was just a bit, like...

Because mum wasn't around?

She was...

She was around but, like,

she had, like, a new partner

and my mum's got other children and

because there was no room as well.

So it was, like, a mutual decision

that I live with my nan.

Did you feel put out?

Did you feel forgotten?

I'm not playing the victim cos

I've had the best life ever.

My nan spoiled me rotten.

I don't think you admitting

that you're hurt -

that's not you playing the victim.

Yeah.

So I think you've built up a really

thick skin and a very tall wall.

I've got very thick skin.

Like, I'm used to people being

horrible and stuff,

so I'm just, like...

My mechanism is comedy.

Yeah.

If somebody says,

"You're a pissed old ugly bitch."

I can be like, "Fuck you, wanker!"

You know, like? Mm-hmm.

So comedy really helps me.

How do you think your life

will change?

Oh, my God.

I think what you've given me

more than anything in this

competition is, like,

a certain amount of professionalism.

That's the word. Cos I wasn't

very professional before.

You've brought it out in me.

Even I'm surprised.

I would just go onstage and go,

"I'm going to batter your sausage."

THEY LAUGH

You have given me the biggest kick

up the arse ever. I feel amazing.

I feel, like, fresh. I feel...

Yeah, I want to keep it going.

I think this is a pivotal turning

point in your life.

Not just as a drag queen but just

you as a human on this planet.

We are dead proud of you,

Baga. Oh, God!

And, you know,

I know that that's a lot for you.

I don't like compliments.

I'm like...

You've pushed that away and you

like to hide behind your character

but the truth is, you know,

we've seen inside your heart

and we love it and it's something

that you need to embrace also.

Like, you've changed my life forever

and, ugh, oh, my God.

Thank you for that.

We're going to say goodbye

but I'm going to give you a hug now.

Oh, my God!

RuPaul don't hug anybody!

Oh, I love you, Ru, so much.

Oh!

Now, remember what I told you.

You are a star. You belong here.

Condragulations.

Thank you, Ru.

So proud of you.

Ru actually gave me a cuddle!

She just grabbed me by the ear.

I am never washing my ear again.

Oh, look who's here. Divina.

Come on over, have a seat.

Hiya.

Good to see you two.

You have earned your spot in that

seat, you are in the top three.

Did you think you'd be sitting here?

I have dreamt about this and

visualised it and now we made

it happen.

You certainly did, but you're

also very talented,

very determined,

your work ethic is like no other.

And so all of those things combined

have earned you this spot.

And what was the thing that you

hadn't counted on in entering

this competition?

Erm, how much

I would second guess myself.

Like, I try and be perfect. Mm.

That's the thing, I try and be

perfect. It doesn't exist. No.

I'm so hard on myself to be perfect,

to be the funniest,

to be the highest kick,

to be the best vocal... You know.

Erm, that quite often that

just sets you up for a fall.

And what factor does all

the other contestants -

how do they play into making

someone second guess themselves?

Because allowing those voices

to rent space in your head,

that's on you. Absolutely,

and I apologised to Viv.

So Vivienne is who

you're talking about?

Is she the voice in your head?

Cos you've said that you were

underestimated by the other girls.

Absolutely. It became a sort of

weird fixation,

because I respect her so much

and I love her,

I love what she does

and I've watched her grow.

Because she hadn't seen

the same growth in me,

I allowed that to affect me.

You think that was a strategy

of hers, to undermine you?

No, I don't think so.

It doesn't matter whether it was

because I gave it power.

Yeah.

So that is my responsibility

and I became so wrapped up in,

A, being perfect, and B,

what do these people think of me?

Because I just clearly am

so desperate for validation

from my peers.

Mm.

Where does that perfection

thing come from?

Mum's quite hard,

my husband is incredibly hard on me

and I am even harder

than any of them.

I don't want to put something

on stage that I don't feel I've

put enough work in because I feel

like I'm disrespecting my audience.

You're absolutely right

and I believe you do that.

Have you given your all

to this competition?

I have done every single thing

I could possibly think of.

Listen, we're about to close out,

but before we do,

you've got Michelle and I here.

Are there any questions

you're dying to ask us?

Erm, so, can I have the crown now?

Well, I'll tell you, we're going

to finish out the competition...

That's a good idea! ..and we'll see.

We'll see, yeah.

I mean, if you feel you have to.

LAUGHS

How are we? Have a seat, my dear.

The Vivienne is here. Whey aye, pet.

Wrong area. That's Geordie, Ru.

But is it wrong to say to someone

from a different region?

Yeah, so, like a Geordie would say,

"Ee, whey aye, pet. Ye alreet?"

I have no idea what you've

just said.

Liverpool you'd just be like, "Hiya,

girl. You're all right?" Yeah.

HESITANTLY: "Aye, girl.

You all right?"

Near enough. You're good.

And now here you are representing

Liverpool on Drag Race.

It's nuts.

Even just sitting here,

I mean, What's The Tee really was

instrumental in changing my life

in the past four years.

I struggle with addiction and I'm

two years clean now. Really? Yeah.

What was your poison?

Ketamine.

Did you live your life in a k-hole?

Yeah, it was breakfast,

dinner and tea.

I could have three bags of it

just putting my face on.

How long had you been doing it?

On and off for four years. Really?

Yeah. What made you stop?

Erm, I just had to stop.

It was a case of doctors were

telling me I was going to be

dead by the time I was 30.

I was getting evicted

from apartments, I had no...

I was making good money,

I was in drag six nights a week

and I was living like a poor person.

Yeah.

I bumped into some guys that

I knew from Gran Canaria.

They asked me to go

and do a gig at Pride.

I did it, I was there for a week

and I just felt like myself again.

I hadn't touched anything all week.

And then spiralling from that, I met

David, we got engaged... Just...

And now I'm sat here with you two.

It's just nuts, isn't it?

I'd love to help

people in my position.

I mean, drag and the gay scene

is riddled with drugs and abuse

and I don't think there's enough

support out there.

Mmhm.

You know, I've been

sober for many years

and hopefully you'll stick with it.

Hopefully you'll understand what

a great talent you are,

what you have to bring to

this world.

Ru has gone through a similar thing

that I've gone through,

so it was great to get

the perspective of the world's

biggest drag queen and he really

gave me some good advice.

Do you think we represented all

the British types of drag well?

Oh, amazing. Absolutely amazing.

I had a big fear that everyone

was going to try

and be Americanising themselves

and saying, "Yas, hunty..."

And I'd just be like,

"Shut up, I'm from Liverpool.

I don't speak like that."

But you've got Baga - if I'm going

out on a Sunday for a pint,

that's who I want to see.

Divina - great all-round

entertainer. And then myself.

Me and Baga pretty much do

the same thing,

I just tend to care

about my look a bit more.

But she'll say that herself.

She doesn't care.

All three of us are common as muck

so, I think...

But it's very endearing.

That is very endearing.

Yeah.

Not only the British public

but the world will fall in love with

you, all three of you, and will be

rooting for you. All right.

We're going to let you go on back

and get ready.

Thank you both so much, it's been

amazing. Thank you, sweetheart.

Thank you, Viv. See you soon. Yeah.

See ya. Bye. Bye. Good luck.

One, two, three, four, five, six...

# Choreography-y-y! #

Hi. Hello! So, I'm AJ and this

is my little brother, Curtis.

Nice to meet you guys.

How're you doing? You good?

So, do you have any dance

experience?

This is what I want to know really.

I might have done a degree in dance.

Wow! A million years ago. I want

to see a bit of your dance style.

I'm going to take these off first,

though.

Take the shoes off.

Before I take all the rhinestones

off. We warmed up. We warmed up.

So casual. So casual.

This is good. A good start.

What about you guys, then?

Pissed in the nightclub!

THEY LAUGH

Yeah, so we're going to do a little

bit of ballroom and Latin.

Oh, God!

What?

One of you is going to do

a bit of tango, one is going to do

a bit of cha-cha and one is going

to do a bit of samba.

You all look very

confused at the moment.

I'm going to be like Ann Widdecombe

when they threw her round the floor.

We are going to do the choruses.

We're going to teach you that first

but I want to see your personality.

I want to see what makes you

really own the stage.

So, we're going to be like...

Five, six, seven, eight.

We're going to have one and two,

three, four, five, six,

seven, eight.

One and two, three, four, five,

six, seven, eight.

OK. OK.

I did amazing in the

girl group challenge

but this is a whole new

kettle of fish.

This is very, very 'ard. Very 'ard.

One and two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight.

One and two, three, four, five

and six, seven, smack.

Yeah, that.

We haven't made it easy for them.

But the thing is, we want to throw

them outside their comfort zone.

Everything you do,

just throw it in 100%.

Whatever the move is, you just hit

it and you just go for it.

I want every bit of sass you've got.

I'm not going to lie,

this choreography is

going right over my head.

I am never doing Strictly.

This is impossible.

I think we should bring the partners

in now to give you something to work

with.

Yes! Come on. Yes, come on.

So, we have got Callum, we've got

Jordan and we have got Kane.

Hello.

Nice to meet you. Mwah.

So we're just going to teach

you your little stylised Latin

and ballroom section now.

So let's start with you, Baga.

You got it. You are doing the tango.

Tango!

How do you feel about the tango?

I'm normally drinking Tango, so...

Question is, do you actually

know what the tango is?

Tango, is it like...

Yeah, that's a samba. OK.

I feel like this is the perfect

dance for you -

the complete opposite

of what you wanted.

I am shitting myself.

There's going to be trouble ahead,

mate. Oh, my God.

If I pull this off,

I can pull anything off.

I'm just stressed cos I'm not

a dancer, so...

You don't need to be a dancer.

You're going to be a dancer

by the end of this.

OK.

One and two and three and four.

Ah! Yeah.

Oh, my God. The choreography

was like, bing, bang, bong.

Bee, bee, bee! And one, two...

Just literally, like, throw the leg

around...

Beep, beep, beep! Pirouette,

silhouette, do the splits, bang!

THEY LAUGH

I dunno how they're going

to carry you, Viv.

THEY LAUGH

Got a JCB in the back.

So, would you like to know what you

are doing? Go on, tell me. Go on.

We're going to be doing

a cha-cha-cha.

OK.

So this for you is all about face,

sass, and getting in there.

OK.

I have done a lot

of choreography in my past.

I'm actually pretty pleased

with how I'm getting on.

I am doing exactly what I know

I need to do,

so I am just drilling and drilling

and drilling.

We'll just do this.

So it's just a simple... We're going

to roll in, roll out.

OK.

So just goes this way.

Goes here.

That way.

And then you just roll back out

the same way. OK?

OK?

OK, let's have a go.

So casual but so good.

I can smell burning. Or summat!

Would you like to know what

your dance is?

Yes!

You are going to be doing the samba.

No idea what that is.

It is so important for me

to get this choreography.

The girl group challenge,

I only missed one step and I

fluffed the whole performance.

So if that happens again,

I am fucked.

Five a-six, seven, a-eight.

One, two, three, a-four, five,

a-six. Ba-ba-ba ba-ba!

Ugh!

Ready, and...

BOTH: One, two, three, and four.

No. Do it again.

Five, a-six, seven, a-eight.

One, two... Redo, redo.

AJ's a feisty little thing,

isn't he?

He's only that big

and he keeps shouting at me!

Three and four, five... Wrong!

Do it again. Do you know what I

mean? He's going, "Wrong, wrong,

wrong."

Carry on and I'll kick you into them

bloody light rigs!

We've got quite a bit more to do,

so it's a bit alarming that it's

taken this long to get us here.

Remember shake and shake.

Can they pull it off?

I'm a bit worried at the moment

because they haven't

got the routine.

It's a work in progress right now.

That's what we're going to say,

yeah.

They're falling all over the

place.

I'm looking at them and I don't

think they're on the same planet.

Right at this moment in time,

we are...

If it was right now, no.

The pressure is on for tomorrow.

This is the final

of RuPaul's Drag Race UK,

and all three of us

have got to bring it to the runway,

runway, run-run-run-runway.

Finale! Three! Top three!

We've just walked into the workroom

for the final time. This is it.

Someone's getting crowned today.

Argh!

Are you going to warm up that

face today? Oh, why bother?

Let the ash queen begin!

LAUGHS

What do you think the worst

look of the season has been?

I would say - I love her to bits,

she's been the heart of the

competition...

Say it on three.

One, two, three...

BOTH: Vinegar...

Yeah, Vinegar's paper dress. Oh, my

God!

Vinegar's paper dress. Paper.

At least she knew it.

Yeah.

She knew. She owned it.

The whole thing's just been immense,

hasn't it?

The whole experience

has been so good.

Is it how you expected it to be?

God, it's so intense.

I'm one of the best queens I know.

Being that self confident

is not a very British thing.

We're very self deprecating.

It's what we do.

But at this point, I don't need to

do that. I know I'm fucking killer.

And so...I'm in it for the win.

I don't think anybody can prepare

you for just how hard it

actually is.

I put too much pressure on myself.

I didn't know it was going to

be this hard.

This has been, like, really...

This has been work. Hard work.

Yeah.

I feel like I've proven what

I wanted to prove.

I'm not just this funny, drunk,

loud, tarty bitch in Soho.

There's a real person behind her.

So anybody watching thinking,

"Oh, I could have done this,

I could have done that..."

No, no. Catch me outside,

how bout dat? Exactly.

I came here with

the expectation of doing well.

And that is just how I live my life.

And I'm here in the top three.

I feel like I'm dreaming but it's

the best dream in the world.

But tonight there's only one goal,

and that is getting that

crown on my head.

You know, thinking back, I don't

know whether this is the final

three I thought or not.

Like, I didn't really

make any assumptions.

I'm happy this is the final three.

Yeah.

Like, I'm really happy it is us.

I really don't know who my biggest

competition is at this point,

because both of them

are so different.

And both of them bring such

different things to the competition

that I think it's going to be

a really, really tough call.

Out of everyone,

even though I love them,

this is the three

I wanted from day one.

That's the truth,

I'm not just saying it.

Aw, Baga.

Divina, I was a bit,

"Mm," but, yeah.

I mean, that's fair enough,

innit, really?

But then I was like, "Do you know

what? I do want her to be here."

# Cover girl

# Put the bass in your walk

# Head to toe

# Let your whole body talk

# And what? #

Welcome to the grand finale

of RuPaul's Drag Race UK.

Tonight it's just family.

My best bestie, Michelle Visage.

Ru, don't make me go home!

Oh, no-one told you? What?

You're not going home!

LAUGHS

And the super specsy Alan Carr!

Specsy?

How many fingers have I got up?

And national treasure,

Graham Norton.

I just want to say thank you so much

for letting me be a part of this.

And in honour of our finalists,

tonight I am fully tucked.

Oh!

I noticed you were sitting

a little bit taller.

But only a little bit taller.

THEY LAUGH

This week we challenged our top

three queens to an all-singing,

all-dancing blast-off performance.

Here we go. Ha-ha-ha!

Up next, category is

Final Three Eleganza Extravaganza.

First up, Baga Chipz.

Oh, why it gotta be Betty White?

I am wearing a mint green gorgeous

gown, sequined to the gods.

I've got Cheryl's blonde curly

Marilyn wig on. Yes, bitch!

Don't leave anything with Baga!

Is that Marilyn Manroe? Yes!

I think Marilyn Man-hoe!

I normally run down the runway.

Today I'm gliding.

I'm making the most of every second.

She's got the Seven Year Jock Itch!

Up next, Divina de Campo.

This really is RuPaul's Flag Race.

Ah-ha!

I am serving princess queen

perfection.

This is a beautiful deconstructed

Union Jack flag.

This is Great Britain at its finest.

I hear she's a flag hag.

I'm giving you some regal waves

and then, at the end,

I'm giving you some proper

de Campo style.

Ta-ra, babe!

Up next, The Vivienne.

Long Viv the queen! Ha-ha!

I am wearing this sparkling diamond

dress, my hair's everything.

I feel amazing. And this led to

the great sequin shortage of 2019.

I'm giving you Barbie straight out

of the box. She's going to the ball.

It's just everything that drag is

and everything that Vivienne is.

I can't Viv

if Viving is without you.

Welcome, ladies. You all look

so beautiful.

Thank you.

Now, it's time for your final

critiques. Starting with Baga Chipz.

Hello!

You all right, babes?

I'm all right, babes.

Baga, very happy

to see you standing here.

Tonight this is Baga feeling

glamorous. You had confidence.

In the dance production I could see

a little bit of hesitation

cos you know you're not a dancer.

I'm not.

But when you had fun with it, see,

that's what Baga Chipz really is.

You're just brilliant.

I love you, Michelle. I love you,

too, and I'm really proud of you.

I love that colour mint on you.

Thank you.

We look like the House

of Slytherin today.

I look like a fat gay reptile.

I love you, Alan.

You can SLYTHERIN me any time.

Let's talk about the dancing.

I mean, yeah, you were a few steps

out, that dress was moulting.

There was gold bits

of pubes all over the stage.

But do you know what?

I forgive you because

you've just got that cheeky

smile on your face and you've got

bags of charisma and charm.

And you deserve to be in the final,

and you look gorgeous.

Thank you, Alan.

Baga, Baga, Baga.

So happy you're in the final.

When it comes to the runway,

the main stage runway,

never quite know what to expect.

It's always a bit of a

fingers-crossed...

But on nights like tonight,

when you get it right,

you have a kind of retro glamour

that's very you.

Actually, I'm getting

Dolly Parton 1980 in 9 to 5.

Oh, my God, that is amazing.

All in all, you did a very good job

and I think you should be very

proud of yourself, Baga Chipz.

Thank you, Graham. Thanks, Baga.

Right. Up next, Divina de Campo.

Hello, Divina. Hello.

So, your choreography was

the toughest.

It was wonderful seeing you

flex your dancing muscles.

I love the confidence.

Been rooting for you all the way

and I think you've done a grand job.

Thank you so much.

You are so welcome.

Congratulations, Divina,

on being in the final.

I love seeing you on the runway

because this is a gorgeous gown,

beautifully made and bang-on

for the final of Drag Race UK.

You did a beautiful job tonight

and you look stunning. Thank you.

Every time I see you,

I think I've got you sussed

and then you always give me

a surprise.

I mean, that just wasn't dancing,

that was gymnastics,

what you were doing. Fantastic

voice, defiant lyrics. I loved that.

Thank you. All right,

thank you, Divina.

Up next, The Vivienne. Hi, Ru. Hi.

It's terrific to see you here, Viv.

I'm so glad this challenge

didn't wrong-foot you.

What was great was today,

we weren't watching three people

trying to dance and sing,

we were watching three stars

selling their performance.

Actually, I would say,

of the three of you,

you were the one who sold face

the most. And this - what can I say?

You know. You thought to yourself,

"What should I wear at a finale?

"I'll wear this old thing." It's

beautiful. It shimmers, it lives.

But yet it doesn't wear you. It's

The Vivienne in a beautiful gown.

The performance, as well.

I loved that, with the backflip.

I'm not even going to do it.

Even with the lip-synching

and the dancing, you still had a bit

of space for that trademark

wit so, yeah, good for you.

Thank you, Alan. I don't think you

were the strongest dancer

but you really made it count.

We often talk about... I think the

most important thing you could

have on this main stage

is confidence.

Yeah. And you had loads of it.

Tonight on the runway is probably

the most beautiful I've seen

you in this entire competition.

Thank you!

The material just glistens when you

move, your eyes match with it.

It's just actual perfection tonight.

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Ladies, many of our younger viewers

watch the show to learn how

to navigate their lives.

That's why I ask each of you to take

a moment and look back and reflect.

Baga.

Oh, my God!

What advice do you have

for three-year-old Mark?

You're going to have some hard

times in life, you're going

to be hurt, you're going

to be heartbroken.

But, yeah, it's going to get better.

You're going to have an amazing

life, you're going

to meet a gender illusionist called

RuPaul and she's going to

give you loads of advice on, it's

OK to show emotion, it's OK to...

..let people know

how you're feeling.

You don't have to

keep on being funny

and you don't have to keep on

making jokes to survive, but...

Yeah, just cut down on the fags

and cut down on the gin

cos you're going to get a bit of

a gut and a bit of a double chin.

But, erm, yeah. You're a good person

deep down and I love me. Thank you.

Divina. What advice do you have

for three-year-old Owen, here?

Not everything is your fault.

And you can't carry everybody else's

problems on your shoulders,

you can only...

You can only do you.

So chill out, have a nice time

and don't worry about it.

Life's not always roses.

Right now it's not great,

but look to where you want to go

and that's what I would say to

three-year-old Owen.

Thank you.

Viv. What advice do you

have for seven-year-old James?

You're going to grow up with

the most amazing family,

the most amazing mum.

And then you're going to see

the lights of the big city.

And you're going to make some

wrong decisions.

Just try and say no,

because in a few years'

time it's going to get you in a lot

of trouble with your health

and your friends and your home life,

so just try and stay away from that.

But you're going to be doing

what you love to do

and that is going to be such a hell

of a ride because you're going

to end up on Drag Race with all

these amazing people.

And that is better than anything

that anyone could ever give you.

All right.

Final question - why should you,

and not one of your fellow queens,

be named the UK's first

Drag Race superstar?

Baga Chipz.

Ugh, God. I think these two

deserve it way more than me.

They're amazing and they're just

brilliant.

You deserve it, girl.

And I'm just happy I'm top three.

Like, that is the best ever.

I've got a medal.

I'm at the Olympics of drag

and I'm honoured,

so anything that happens from now,

I've already won.

Thank you, Baga. Divina.

Same question.

This is really difficult for me

to talk about why I'm

good at anything,

but I'm going to give it a go.

I have been consistently good

throughout this competition.

At points I've been

absolutely incredible.

There is still so much for me

to learn, but for ten years

I've been developing

all of those skills.

Choreography, stage craft,

editing, writing scripts,

doing TV work,

learning about the industry.

I don't feel any of us

deserve it more than anybody else,

but I think if I was crowned, you

would get somebody who was going to

bring a kindness and a softness

to what can be quite

a hard art form.

Thank you.

All right. The Vivienne.

Well, I think time after time,

I've shown you from challenge

to challenge, runway to runway,

that I'm a strong queen,

a hell of an entertainer

and a really funny person.

But apart from that skill set,

I really think

I bring a humbleness, likeability

and relatability to this craft.

I think being an amazing

performer is great

but I just think being able to

relate to someone who's a bit

common is just so much more

endearing than having all

the skills under the world.

I haven't got all the skills in

the world but what I have got is

the tools to make someone

feel at ease with themselves.

And I eat, sleep and breathe drag.

It's what I do, it's what I love

to do more than anything else.

And that's why I should be

the UK's first drag superstar.

Thank you, ladies.

While you untuck in the workroom,

the judges and I will deliberate.

You may leave the stage.

And there we are... Oh, my goodness!

Oh, my God! Argh!

Oh, my God!

SLURPS

THEY CHEER

I'm back!

The queens are here! Oh, my God!

Where did these bitches come from?

Oh, my God. Girls, how has it been?

I need a drink! Girls!

Were the judges very, very harsh?

Or were they very, very nice?

Very nice.

Guys, you know

why we're here, don't you?

Why?

Cos we're going to decide who's

top two. No, you are not!

That is not for real. Are you for

real? This is not for... Oh, my God!

Are you serious? Yeah.

Holy shit!

Are you being serious or, like...

Just kidding!

We literally had zero idea

you were here. Family reunion.

Divina, you look amazing tonight.

Thank you. Everyone does.

We all look gorgeous.

Yeah, you look stunning.

Vinegar, can I just say, you are not

looking hodgepodge today, you are...

Yay!

Thank you. It just took to

the last episode to get there.

And Baga's hair is exceptional.

Yeah.

Cheryl left it me in her will.

In her will!

I've been missing you so much

because we've really got on,

haven't we, in this competition.

Yeah.

And when you left, because we

lip-synched against each other,

I was so happy to get through,

but I was heartbroken because I just

love you so much. Aw. Aw.

And I love you.

I knew from the minute

I walked in this room, that we

were going to have

a great time here.

We're stuck with

each other for life now!

It was very, very fun.

Very, very harsh and very, very fun.

No, you guys deserve

to be in the top three,

as much as I would

have loved to have been there.

You all won three challenges each,

and there was me with my zero badges

in the top four, so I was, like,

love you, love you, love you, done!

This is a great top three, though.

Like, honestly, from the beginning,

I was just, like, bang, bang, bang.

I know how you girls feel, like,

obviously, you went home,

but does anyone think it was

the wrong decision?

Gothy?

Yes, just go in order.

I was a bit gutted to go,

because obviously,

I hadn't shown the best

of what I do.

You've just got to wait for

All-Stars now, haven't you?

Darling.

But, Scaredy, what about you,

because, like, second out...?

Yeah, I was at peace

with it, I mean,

you guys were all so amazing,

and I've been doing this

for five minutes,

I kind of like felt that

that was my place.

To say who is not going to be at

peace, is the rest of the drag

community hearing her go,

"Not bad for a first gig."

Hey!

Fully "I got this".

Thank you.

Well, I'm sorry about it.

That was fun to go when I did

but it was really hard picturing

you guys are still in here. Like,

I'm at home in bed

and I just have this flash of,

like, what's happening right now?

Well, I was a wee bit raging

about going home, I must admit.

Only because Baga that week

didn't want to lip-sync.

But other than that, I was fine.

I just thought I'd spring

some shade into the room!

In true blue form!

But you know what?

I'm glad that you got over that

and you're here today,

because I'm so proud of you.

Oh, I love you so much.

Can I just say that all three

of you have been huge inspirations

to me from the day I walked

in this door? Oh, my goodness.

From looks to attitude

and personality, I'm just, like,

so thankful that I met you

and you've really taught me a lot.

So I just hope that you go

and teach the world all these

things that you've been teaching me.

God, I love you.

And you should all be so,

so proud of yourselves,

I'm sure that you are -

you're in the top three -

but, like, in case you're feeling at

all shaky, like, you guys nailed it.

And we've got loads of sisters now

and we're going to be friends

for ever and ever and ever.

I don't know.

Agh! Ha-ha!

Till Crystal leaves the group chat!

This is fun, can we get more drinks?

All right, now,

just between us girlfriends,

and for the final time this season,

what do you think?

We've got our top three here,

and they've come a long way.

So let's start with Baga Chipz.

I love Baga,

I absolutely adore her.

Whatever old nonsense

she walks on the runway,

I'm delighted to see her come

round the corner.

I love her personality,

I love her charisma,

I'd love to see her do

a one-woman show in Vegas.

I mean, I think the tickets

would sell like hotcakes.

Are you saying you want her

to just leave the country?

Yes.

Or deported, one of the two.

Every single challenge, she got

better and better. Becky the Maid...

..probably to this day is my

favourite moment of

this entire series.

I am so deeply proud of her,

but I know she needs to work

on her confidence,

because she couldn't answer why

she should win over her friends,

because I don't think

she thinks she is good enough,

and that is a concern for me.

Can I just say, as someone who

lives here, I think that question,

to three British drag queens,

was very hard.

I think American drag queens

have thought about it,

and they are able to tell you

without you thinking,

"Shut... What?!

"Who died and made you

drag superstar?"

So I got that Baga did that.

Then it was quite shocking

when we went to Divina

who kind of went, "Let me tell you."

It was like, "Ooh!"

I thought, with Divina,

we were going to get

a PowerPoint presentation.

"Let me show you."

Baga is quite an act.

I have loved watching her

just bloom on this stage

and in this competition.

In the challenges,

as Margaret Thatcher...

Oh, yeah.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

She is one to watch.

Let's move on to Divina de Campo.

What Baga lacks in self esteem,

Divina will tell you at every minute

she gets how talented she is.

And I'm not mad at it.

She has been, from the beginning,

a triple threat.

She can sing, she can act.

We saw tonight she can dance.

She can do everything,

but she has absolutely made some

questionable fashion choices.

I must say

the Posh on a Penny outfit,

I think that was the closest

to true high fashion

we've seen on the runway all series,

and I was very surprised

that of all the people

to do that, it was Divina.

And there is a consistency

to Divina,

and that's reflected in the fact

she's never been in the bottom two,

and she is not here to mess around.

She intended to end up in this

final and, Goddamn it, she has.

The dancing today was just amazing.

Doing those splits and lip-syncing.

Divina is a very smart competitor.

I will always remember her Mrs Moo.

We serve them soup at every supper.

She was the best actress

of all of them.

She told us several times.

And I choose to believe her. Yes!

All right.

Let's move on to The Vivienne.

The Vivienne has it all, you know?

She can serve a look,

she can deliver a line,

she is, without doubt,

a terrific drag queen, drag act.

And she's got that trademark wit.

When she was Trump, oh, my God, that

was the best Trump I've ever seen.

Agreed. Yeah, agreed.

All tea, no collusion.

Definitely not with China.

It was a comedy masterclass.

The thing with The Viv is,

she came into this competition

at a certain level.

It wasn't until the girl group

challenge where,

when she tumbled,

she really tumbled.

So it was actually almost humanising

to see her make an error.

The Vivienne's choreography tonight,

she sold it probably the most.

Divina was flipping around

the stage, but you know what?

Viv was selling it.

She was selling it with her face,

she was selling it with her body.

The Viv is a perfect example

of the 21st-century British queen.

I think she is a great

representative

of what this competition

can turn out.

She absolutely came here to slay,

and I think The Vivienne

could leave at the end of the day

very happy and very proud

of the work that she has done.

Silence.

I've made my decision.

Bring back my girls.

All of them.

Gothy Kendoll.

Scaredy Kat.

Meow.

Vinegar Strokes.

Sum Ting Wong.

Ooh!

Crystal.

Blu Hydrangea

Cheryl Hole.

ALL: Ooh!

And our final three.

Baga Chipz.

The Vivienne.

Divina de Campo.

Ladies, I will remember

this glorious adventure

for as long as I live.

Which probably isn't very

much longer.

Michelle, is it getting

dark in here?

I want to thank you for your

generosity, your spirit

and for spreading the love of drag

to a whole new audience.

Now, based on your

performances this week,

and throughout this competition,

I have made some decisions.

Divina de Campo...

..The Vivienne...

Condragulations, you are the top two

queens of the season.

Well done, girls!

Whoo!

Well done, well done.

Love you.

Lesbian.

Baga Chipz.

I'm sorry, my dear.

We love you,

but this is not your time.

I just want to say thank you

to everyone

for giving me this opportunity.

Those two girls are

the dog's bollocks.

It could be any one of them.

They are both amazing,

I love them both.

Thank you - and I'm happy!

Baga Chipz was top three!

Put that on your chips and eat it.

THEY CHEER

I feel much better!

You may join the other girls.

Thank you.

Good luck, girls! Love you!

Thank you, Baga. Love you, girl.

God!

Divina de Campo...

..The Vivienne.

The winner of RuPaul's Drag Race UK

will receive a crown and sceptre,

plus an all-expense-paid trip

to Hollywood

to create your own digital series

with the producers

of RuPaul's Drag Race.

Two queens stand before me.

I have consulted with the judges,

but the final decision

is mine to make.

Prior to tonight, you were asked

to prepare

a final lip-synch performance

of I'm Your Man by Wham!.

Ladies, this is your very last

chance to impress me

and to earn the title of the UK's

first Drag Race superstar.

There is only one lip-sync

between me and winning the crown.

This is going to be a battle royale.

The time has come for you

to lip-sync for the crown!

This is so close, now.

All I've got to do is beat Divina

and kill this lip-sync.

Good luck.

And don't fuck it up.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Ladies, I've made my decision.

The time has come to

crown our queen.

The UK's first Drag Race

superstar is...

..The Vivienne.

MUSIC: If I Dream by RuPaul

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Well done.

Condragulations.

Thank you so much.

Oh!

THEY CHEER

The Vivienne, my Queen.

Thank you! Is there anything you

would like to say?

AS TRUMP:

It's been absolutely great,

it's been tremendous, thank you.

LAUGHTER

Now, prance, I say!

I'm made up!

I've just won the first-ever

season of Drag Race UK.

This is nuts!

That crown is gonna look gorgeous.

Oh, you'll see me there,

washing the dishes in it.

THEY CHEER

Whoo!

Now, if you can't love yourself,

how the hell are you going to love

somebody else?

Can I get an amen up in here?

ALL: Amen!

All right, now let the music play.
