RuPaul’s Drag Race UK finalists revealed

In the penultimate episode of series five, three queens have made it through to the final of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK. 

In Thursday’s episode, DeDeLicious, Tomara Thomas, Ginger Johnson and Michael Marouli  competed in a Gladiators-themed comedy roast witnessed by the eliminated contestants from the series. Aisling Bea joined RuPaul as his extra special guest judge alongside Michelle Visage and Alan Carr.

Michael Marouli won the challenge, earning him his third Ru Peter badge and sending him into next week’s final. He was joined by Ginger Johnson, leaving DeDe and Tomara to lip-sync for survival. Ru decided it was DeDeLicious who would be eliminated, having been in the bottom for the fourth time.

The return of previous contestants witnessed tense scenes in the werk room as Vicki Vivacious confronted DeDeLicious over her behaviour from the first week of the competition. 

The winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK will be revealed on Thursday 30th November at 9.00pm on BBC Three.
