Get your first look at episode one of ‘Drag Race UK’ – WATCH

It's almost time to tuck in.

By Will Stroude

We know the guest judges, we know the queens, and we’re now officially ready to tuck into the first ever series of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK.

We’ve still got a few weeks to wait until the inaugural British edition of RuPaul’s hit drag contest hits BBC Three in October, but we’ve been served an appetiser in the form of a sneak peek at the first episode of the series.

A clip released on Twitter on Thursday (22 August) gives us our first glimpse of Ru’s first runway look, an introduction to judges Michelle Visage and Alan Carr, as well as special guest judge Andrew Garfield, who tells Ru his place on the panel feels like a “day in gay heaven”. Too right.

Check it out below:
