RuPaul’s Drag Race UK stars Baga Chipz and The Vivienne epically take down Glamrou and Crystal – stars of drag super group Denim – in the new series of Roast Battle UK.

The four drag queens joined judges Jimmy Carr and Katherine Ryan, with special guest judge Noel Fielding, on the stage as the UK version of the hit show returned for the fourth season last night (January 20).

In the episode, we saw Crystal roast Baga by saying: “Baga is actually still in the closet. She’s a Tory.

“But honestly Baga, being a Tory kinda suits you because you’re just like the country – in a state of disrepair, falling apart at the seams and constantly being fucked by rich, tax-avoidant men like Jimmy.”

Baga responds in her best possible way: “Crystal, when you were five, you put on your first dress and you were singing to Celine Dion’s ‘My Arse Will Go On’.

“Well, like the Titanic, she likes to go down and she’s full of dead seamen.”

When it came to crowing the winners, Katherine voted for Glamrou and Crystal whereas Noel gave his vote to the RuPaul’s Drag Race UK stars.

It was up to Jimmy to then give the deciding vote and ended up crowning Baga and The Vivienne.
