- Hello, hello, hello. [queens screaming]
Previously on "RuPaul's Drag Race UK"...
- Oh, my God.
- We're throwing a Fierce Impressions Ball.
- Ooh!
- First look, surprise!
It's what you're wearing right now.
Second look: up in the club.
- Oh!
- Oh, fabulous.
- Ah!
[queens screaming]
- The wig!
- Give it up. Give it up.
- Third look: Fierce Impressions Eleganza Extravaganza.
Queens, no one is going home this episode.
Vicki Vivacious.
- I love this look. It's ironic.
It's fun.
- Condragulations.
You are one of the top two queens of the week.
Cara Melle.
- This is flawless.
You look beautiful.
- You are the other top queen of the week.
Vicki Vivacious,
you're a winner, baby.
You've earned a coveted RuPeter badge.
[dance music]
- Whoo! - Here we go!
- Oh, my God.
We turnt that!
- We turnt it out.
You turnt it out, bitch. - Oh, my God.
- You did it, girls. - All hail Gina G.
We're back in the Werk Room, and I have just won
the first lip sync of season five.
It feels incredible.
- I need to take the weight off of these really
uncomfortable shoes. - Oh!
- But what also feels equally as good--
no one goes home this week.
And I get to spend more time getting to know my sisters.
- Girls, can we get a round of applause for the top two?
[cheers and applause] - Thank you.
But then another applause for the winner.
[cheers and applause]
You got away with it this time.
But watch out, bitch.
[laughter]
- She's gonna learn the words next time.
- She's not gonna turn around so much.
- Won't catch me slipping again.
What a robbery.
But anyway, Vicki wins.
And I'm like, Jesus Christ.
The Nutcracker herself.
[chuckles]
- Is anyone disappointed with how this week's gone?
- I'm disappointed in these bastard wings.
But that's about it.
- I definitely messed up this week.
But full steam ahead.
Eyes on the prize big-time, DeDe time.
- Mm-hmm.
- I just want, like, an act in a comedy challenge,
anything next week where I can show what I can do.
- I want any challenge 'cause I know I'm capable of all of it.
- Ooh. - So after this week,
does anyone feel like they've misjudged someone?
- I think DeDe misjudged Alexis.
'Cause you kind of pushed her into a corner earlier today,
making her think that she'd done really badly.
And she did really, really well.
- Oh?
OK, Ginger.
My goodness.
- I'll stop you there,
'cause I did say to Alexis that I thought I did worse.
And I was basing it off performance.
- And everybody said Alexis.
- So you all misjudged me. - Yeah.
- That is correct.
- And at the end of the day, I was in the top.
I hope DeDe zips it next time, and she focus
on gluing her wig properly before coming for me.
I'm so happy that I got to represent my country on this runway.
- And you look stunning, baby. You really do.
- Thank you. Thank you so much.
- What's congratulations in Polish?
- Gratulacje.
- And congratulations in Cornish
is proper job, my handsome.
[laughter]
- I've had enough of this.
I'm getting out with these bastard broken wings.
I've had enough. Get me out.
This is it. Week one's done.
The free pass has been handed out.
But no more of them. It's game on!
[groaning]
- Everyone made an amazing first impression.
- Oh, my God. - [groans]
The only person who didn't live up to that expectation
was me.
- Oh, I can't do it. - [groans]
Next week, I'm coming for it.
- She's free.
- Ah!
I made it to the top two, and I'm feeling fabulous.
I'm gonna take this, continue on that upward trajectory.
And I'm just gonna win, win, win, baby.
Yes!
I am a goddess, and you will kneel before me!
You're all losers.
We're win--ow!
[laughter]
- That's what you get, bitch!
- [singing] "RuPaul's Drag Race"
The winner crowned the UK's next "Drag Race" superstar
will create their own digital series
with the producers of "RuPaul's Drag Race."
Tonight, with Michelle Visage, Graham Norton,
and extra-special guest judge Yasmin Finney.
[singing] "RuPaul's Drag Race"
May the best drag queen win, best drag queen win
[upbeat music]
- Yes!
[queens exclaiming]
- It's a brand-new day in the Werk Room.
- Bam! Bam!
- A brand-new challenge awaits. We don't know what to expect.
I cannot wait.
Just before we get started, I just want to say
a massive, massive congratulations to Vicki.
[cheers and applause] - Thank you.
- Oh, let us see it, baby.
- Where are the jewels? Where are the jewels?
- Yes!
- Winning that badge is the best feeling in the world.
I'm just over the moon.
- You deserve it, girlie. - Thank you.
- But there is only one way to go from that position.
- Listen, I'm known for going down.
But this, baby, I am not going down.
[laughter]
- Alexis, honey, how are you feeling today?
- I'm feeling better. - Yeah.
- I would like to personally apologize to you for claiming the whole
us being in the bottom together.
I was just trying to kind of, like, get a plan in my head together
for what I was about to go through.
I was so wrong.
And as soon as I brought up the idea of Alexis
being in the bottom with me, I could see she spiraled.
And that's not what I'm here to do.
I'm not playing a dirty game.
- I wasn't angry at you.
It wasn't anything towards anybody.
It was--mostly I was angry, really angry at myself,
that it got to me so quickly.
So I really need to work on it.
But, bitches, be aware because I am confident today.
[queens cheering]
- You better straighten up that spine.
[siren wailing]
- Ooh, girl!
Her Majesty done already done had herses.
Hey, hamsters!
all: Hi!
- Does your pussy scratch?
- Yes.
- Well, it's time to tame the wild beast...
- Ooh! - Get on all fours...
- Oh?
- And show us your style, be it doggy or otherwise.
- [meows] - Ooh!
- Ooh.
- Hello, hello, hello.
[queens cheering]
- Candy striper. - Hello.
- Hey, kitty girls.
all: Hey.
- Trying to pick out who is who here.
Hmm. - I'm Vicki Vivacious.
- Oh, Vicki Vivacious.
- Can I have the badge back, please?
[laughter]
- One week down.
And I bet you think you've got this whole competition
in the bag, right?
- Yep. - Ooh!
- Well, think again.
[laughter]
Oh, Brit crew!
- Oh!
[queens exclaiming]
- Oh, hi!
- Hi!
Look at that Brit crew coming in with that big old package.
Mm. Morning, love.
- Now, for today's Mini Challenge,
I want you to be brutally honest
as we play a little game called Let the Cat Out of the Bag.
- [meows]
- Ooh. - Meow.
- First, you'll pass around this handbag
until the music stops.
And the queen left holding the bag
will open it and pull out a stupid cat pun.
And that stupid cat pun will help you unleash your true feelings
about one of your fellow queens.
- Things are about to get a little bit catty.
Rawr!
- Let the music play!
[singing] Hey, kitty girl
It's your world
When you walk the street
Whoo, yes! Kitty girl.
Step into the beat
[record scratches] - Oh!
- [laughs]
- Little me?
I love organized fun.
Ooh!
I'll stick me hand in a bag and be a bastard any day.
- What does your bag say?
- Hiss-terical.
- Which kitty girl is the funniest?
- Hmm.
[laughter]
- Not the Heelys. - I'm picking Banksie.
- OK. - Funny-looking, right?
- Funny ha-ha and funny-looking.
- Oh, thank you.
- I am exposing Banksie as a funny lady.
She's got a lot of comedy under that beret.
- All right, now, let the music play.
[singing] Gone tomorrow, but you're here for today
Cat walking like the world is your run-run-runway
[record scratches] - Oh!
- DeDeLicious.
- Whoa!
- OK.
DeDe, what does your bag say, hon?
- Feral.
- Which kitty girl is most likely to start
a good old-fashioned catfight?
- Go on.
- Uh-oh. - Ooh!
- Tease me. Tease me.
- Hi. - Oh!
Oh, oh!
There you go.
[laughter]
- That's right.
- I knew that was coming.
- Cara, is that true?
- I always will come to people's aid in a fight.
- Do you all agree with that?
all: Yes. [laughter]
- 100%.
- Cara is just a strong, powerful woman.
- But I'm nice. I swear.
- And sometimes strong, powerful women fight.
- [singing] Hey, kitty girl
It's your world
[record scratches] - Oh!
- Vicki Vivacious.
- Oh!
- What do you got? - Cat-letic.
- Which of your fellow contestants has the most banging bod?
- Come on. - Pump the little pads.
- [laughs]
[queens exclaiming]
- This one's for you, my handsome.
It's the ass, baby. Look.
- No, it might look flat in these. Fuck, don't.
[laughter]
- I thought I was a shoo-in for that one.
- [singing] Boogie-body-rocking queen
[record scratches] - Oh!
- Ginger Johnson, that bag landed on you.
- Ooh. - Oh, nice.
What does it say? - Purr-fect.
- [purrs]
- Which kitty girl's drag is not as perfect as she thinks?
[laughter]
- Of course, I am landed with the shady handbag.
Who isn't as big shit as she thinks she is?
[laughs]
Hmm.
- Don't look at me. - Turn around.
- It's you, bitch.
[queens screaming]
- Fuck you. Fuck your family.
[laughter] Wah-wah.
- DeDe's not shy of handing out a bit of shade.
And I don't think I'm telling her anything she doesn't already know.
- Now, are you saying that DeDeLicious is DeDeLusional?
- Oh!
- I think you hit it right on the head there, Ru.
- Yes!
- I think the girls think I'm obsessed with myself.
Not really sure where that's come from.
Thanks, Ginger.
- [singing] Hey, kitty girl - Oh!
- Oh, God. - [singing] It's your world
[record scratches] - Oh!
- Tomato Thomas!
- I feel honored, girls.
I feel absolutely honored.
- Open up that bag.
- Oh!
- Winner!
- Winner. You're the winner, baby.
- Winner, winner, chicken dinner.
- Let's see what prize is in your bag.
- Oh, my favorite!
Yes!
- You've received the lucky chew toy.
- [gasps]
- And you'll find out what makes it lucky in just a minute.
- Ooh!
Thank you. Thank you.
- All right, kitty girls.
For this week's Maxi Challenge, you need to rescue these pet supplies
and transform them into high fashion.
- [gasps] - Yay!
- A sewing challenge.
I have been blessed.
This is right up my alley.
- Tomorrow on the runway, category is Pet Shop Girls Couture.
[queens cheering]
#DragRaceUK.
Now, you may use your own hair, shoes, and undergarments.
But the rest of your outfit must be totally re-purr-posed materials.
Tomara Thomas. - Mm-hmm?
- Since the lucky chew toy landed in your...
[clears throat] Lap...
[laughter]
You get to preselect one item.
- [gasps] - But wait, there's more.
You also get to invite a friend to preselect
one item for herself also.
- Pick me. I'm your sister.
We live together. Come on.
- Who's gonna help you?
- Which queen do you choose?
- DeDe-gorgeous-gorgeous-Licious.
- Ooh.
- OK.
I mean, you want the girl that sews a lot.
But I also sew.
I am livid!
- All right, Tomara, DeDe, it's time to shop.
- Come on, baby. - Take my hand, girlie.
- Let's go shopping, girl. - Right, take our time.
We don't want to be rushing this shit now. We don't want to rush.
- You think, 'cause you can't sew at all.
- Yeah. You got to be smart in this game, girls.
You got to be smart. - This seems very nice.
- I picked DeDe because she's a seamstress.
Ooh, shit. I don't know. I don't know.
- Stretchy. Stretchy, stretchy, stretchy.
- She can help me stitch a little stitch.
I do like these. I do like the feathers. - They are nice.
You could create, like, a nice shoulder bit.
Gorgeous.
- Not just a wig stand, babes.
- Oh, you little bitch.
- Do you not just got one?
- Shut your mouth, you.
- All right, Racers, start your engines.
And may the best drag queen win.
Go.
[queens exclaiming]
- Stampede!
- Ah! - Oh!
- It's absolute chaos. - Ah!
- I'm taking the balls. I'm taking the balls.
- Somebody take my bird?
- Do you want this? - No, baby.
You can have it. - I'm having this.
- I thought these could be cute.
I mean, it doesn't stretch, but--
- No, these aren't cute.
- Ah!
I'm seeing some dog leads.
I'm seeing some harnesses.
There's a big pink horse. What can I do with you, sir?
[horse neighs]
It's the biggest mishmash of shite I've ever seen.
- Ooh, that's nice.
I've got equestrian material-- horse blankets, harnesses.
And I can use a sewing machine.
I'm happy.
- Good luck, bitches.
Well, I'm absolutely buzzing.
- I picked you. You're very, very welcome.
You're gonna help a girl out if she needs a little help.
- Yeah, was that a little, you picked me for exchange of help?
- That was me. I love you so, so much.
- I'm no stranger to a sewing machine.
So I will help her.
But this is my chance to have my moment.
'Cause obviously, this challenge, I have a lot of pressure,
because I made a couple cute looks for Krystal.
- Just a couple.
- I made the Cruella, made the goddess, made red carpet.
So I'm warning you now, this challenge is mine.
- Of course. I'll let you have that.
- But I will do my absolute best to guide you
and help you through this. - Gorge.
We're gonna be good. - So don't you worry.
You're in good hands. - We're gonna be great.
- So what are you thinking with these lovely little ostrich-y feathers?
- Showgirl vibe.
I think stick to something that you know. Do what you do best.
You can do this.
Come on.
- I think if I hold this up, you'll know
exactly which direction I'm thinking of going in.
- Oh, yes.
- I'm doing, like, a Vivienne Westwood, Moschino kind of vibe.
- I'm feeling that vibe. I like that. - Yeah.
- The kind of thing I would do would be something like this.
I am quite crafty and that kind of thing. - Yeah.
But I think I want to sew this and do something glamorous,
'cause I'm thinking, like, maybe, like, a cowl hood.
- Oh.
- Maybe a sleeve with a glove.
I didn't come here to play it safe.
So I'm gonna push myself out of my comfort zone
and try and sew something.
- Are you a sewer?
- I can barely thread a needle, dear.
How dare you?
- I can thread a needle.
I can use a machine.
I just think this is jumping out of my comfort zone
a little bit when it comes to my ability.
At the end of the day, I can fake it.
And if anyone knows what couture is, it's me.
Girl, I'm not gonna lie.
If you're not gonna use that fabric, do you want to do a swap?
- Well, do you know what?
Because it's you...
- Ha! - [grunts]
- Mine, it's all mine.
- Deep breath, Kathleen. I'm going in.
- Talk to me about this little jumble sale you got going on here, Alexis.
- This just looks exactly like my life--
a mess.
Bit worried because I'm not a seamstress.
I can put a look together.
I'm not really sure where I'm going with it.
My head is vibrating.
I'm loving this.
- Mm, and then I've got this as well, this gorgeous snakeskin.
- Ooh, that's sexy, though.
- I feel like I could do something really
sort of fierce with this.
I make almost everything that I wear.
There is nothing like walking out onstage,
feeling amazing, and knowing that you have made the thing
that you are wearing.
There's no feeling like that.
- [retches]
- This already, like--
[imitates whip cracking]
Do you know what I mean? - No.
[laughs]
- Have you ever sewn before? - I can sew. I'm not a seamstress.
But, like, get me on a sewing machine, and I can do a thing.
- What are you thinking of doing with all this stuff?
'Cause I'm looking at it and I'm like, girl, that's a lot of mixed texture.
- Like, floor-length do-rag and, like, kind of like a wraparound.
I'm feeling pretty confident.
I'm quite happy with my idea and what I've got planned.
So as long as I've got enough material, it's gonna work.
What are your ideas for your look?
- Well, so I've, like, stole all these feathers.
And it's all over the place right now.
But we're gonna figure it out, honey.
- No, I love that.
Do you sew?
- Don't tell nobody, but I went to fashion school.
- Ooh, baby. This week could be your week.
- I hope so.
I'm really trying to go for it, 'cause I have the stuff.
I've got the guts.
I just need to pull it all together.
And hopefully, these feathers don't be the death of me.
- Ladykins.
- Hi! - Oh!
- We've got company.
- No way. - Oh, my God.
- Please give a big "Drag Race" welcome
to the new face of fashion,
the editor in chief of "British Vogue"...
- No. - Edward Enninful.
- No!
Oh, my God!
Fuck me!
- Hello, queens.
- The first Black editor in chief of "British Vogue"!
- This is Ru, named after yours truly.
And he's a real bitch.
[laughter]
- Come on in. - Let's go.
- Little baby Ru.
- Hi. - Hello.
- Hello, Ru.
I'm gonna put that dog in my shopping trolley and run away.
- You know how to sew?
- I try. - Meaning no.
- Meaning--that means-- I'm hearing no, yes.
Let's see what you have.
- So I wanted to serve a dancing queen.
- Hold it still.
Yes, a dancing queen. Uh-huh.
- Yeah, that has a lot of movement to it.
- Now, I see you're doing body.
We know that about you.
What other element can you bring to this thing?
- [gasps]
- This is a moment for you to really shine
and to really let us know who you are.
- The longer I am at the table, the more I'm doubting the look.
- I just enjoy when I see something I haven't seen before,
but even if I have seen it, that you're having fun.
- And so it's time to scrap it and make it from the beginning.
- What I'm going for is this kind of collage effect
of, like, lots of different kinds of animal furs.
- I love what you're doing with the print clash
and all the different animals together.
Can you move?
- I mean, I can't move out of drag anyway, my darling, so...
[laughter]
I know that I am not the most fashionable queen here.
But I'm gonna make something that will go down a runway, certainly.
- Now, you're funny.
Can you even heighten it on the fashion side?
- I'll definitely heighten it.
It's gonna be so high, you won't be able to see it.
[laughter]
- So I'm doing kind of like Banksie does ode to Chanel.
So I'm basically building a fabric out of these neckerchiefs.
- Ooh. - OK, I like that.
- And then I'm gonna build a shirt out of them with a pussy bow.
But I'm looking to maybe, like, blend a lot of different fabrics
and patterns to try and give you sort of a ready-to-wear on acid.
- Well, that seems like a lot of stuff.
What do you think, Edward?
- Really experiment with your shape.
Know your body.
- Yeah.
Nobody knows what I can do yet, and this challenge is like a little gem
for me to show exactly what I'm about and freak all these other girls out.
- Now, Michael, that looks like a Grace Jones moment.
- I wanted to do something quite feminine and quite fitted.
- Great.
- What would you suggest as far as trains go?
- Go big or go home, as they say.
- I need to make a statement with this.
If I impress Edward, I could be on "Vogue," legs spread.
Imagine.
- And what about you, DeDeLicious? You're a designer yourself.
- Yes, so feeling the pressure a little bit.
- Let's see what you've got there.
- So I wanted to do something a bit more, like,
dom, chains and straps.
I also want to have chains just connecting everything, really.
- I mean, the first thing I thought when I saw your outfit was,
I hope it's not too heavy. - Mm-hmm.
- Just make sure that it still looks chic. - OK.
- So if you feel something is taking it to another territory, take it off.
- OK. - I believe in editing.
- OK. He's the editor of "Vogue."
And I am taking that advice.
- Ladies, you have your work cut out for you.
Can't wait to see it. - Thank you.
- Thank you so much. - Thank you so much.
- Well, I know that Ginger is very adept at sewing.
Does that put a little extra pressure on you?
- Maybe in relation to the other girls around the room,
I think it maybe puts a bit of a spotlight on me.
But I'm fine with that.
I love the spotlight.
This is what I do.
This is my first opportunity to get a badge on my jumper.
I've got this amazing pink snakeskin. - Mm-hmm.
- And I'm doing quite a sharp trench coat out of it.
- Sure.
- Yeah, I'm thinking about how I can incorporate some snaky details.
- Any sort of unnecessary decorations,
we're going into costume land sometimes. - Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
- So I have to be careful with that in the magazine myself.
- That's great. Thank you.
- And what about you? - So I were thinking about doing,
like, a really long do-rag. - Uh-huh.
- But then I've got sidetracked with this gorgeous--
- I love orange. - Yeah.
I were thinking about those two colors together.
So I were thinking about, like, incorporating that to make a skirt.
- It's all about the vision, how you want it to look.
- Do you reckon that I would need to line it?
- Yes. - Yeah.
- You're definitely gonna need to line it,
'cause you want it to flow, trail behind you.
- Yeah, absolutely. - So yes, definitely a lining.
- That's brill.
- Naomi, your last name is Carter after Beyoncé.
- Yeah. - And the first name?
- Naomi comes from Naomi Campbell.
- Well, this here's Naomi Campbell's best friend.
- I know. I know, honestly. It's so lovely to meet you.
- Is there anything you want Edward to tell her?
- What can I tell her?
- Oh, my God. - [laughs]
I am literally fucking shaking.
Would you just tell her, like, how much, like, I love her
and how much of an inspiration that she is to me?
And I'm honestly, like, so grateful that I've got someone
like her to look up to. - Yeah.
Well, thank you, ladies. I can't wait to see what you come up with.
- Thank you. - And I know Ru is excited.
He's actually... - 'Cause he got up!
- Shown you what he thinks.
- Yeah. Her ass.
[laughter]
- Who knows how to sew?
- I do. - I do.
- Put that hand down.
No, she don't. - You don't?
- I can do a gorgeous straight line.
- OK. - OK.
- And I'm ever so creative.
I mean, I did learn to sew to come on this show
but not to bloody make an outfit out of pet shop supplies.
What is this?
- Now, what about you, Cara Melle?
- I saw my little friend here.
So I'm gonna mimic the lovely bird chest.
We got the red. We've got the yellow.
- Do you know how to sew? - I do know how to sew.
I actually went to London College of Fashion.
- Oh, so you must win this. - Yeah, I graduated from there.
- Wow. - That's what I'm hoping for.
- So you're basically mixing all the different colors together.
So color blocking is really good. - Yeah.
- Creativity is more important... - Yes.
She's gonna save me, Miss Creativity. - Than whether you can sew or not.
But make sure you can move in it. Make sure you're comfortable in it.
- Because you lip-synched last week.
And because your hair was so tall,
it sort of inhibited your ability to dance.
- And the dress, yeah. - Yeah.
- So you have to make sure you can move.
- Yeah. - So, Tomara.
- Yes, babe?
- Now, you two are roommates in real life?
- Yes. - Yes, we do live together.
- And you won the Mini Challenge.
Why didn't you pick your roommate...
- Yes. - For the advantage?
- Because I know Miss DeDeLicious from back home, you see.
And I know that she can sew a garment.
She can. - And I can't?
- Well, I've never seen you sew one, to be honest, girl.
- So because DeDe can sew--
- No, because I've seen-- I've seen pieces of DeDe's.
I've never-- - You've seen mine as well, sweetheart.
[dog whines]
- What outfit have I seen that you've sewn?
Tell me. - I don't need to give you examples.
- Well, 'cause I haven't.
And I've seen DeDe's dresses.
- OK. - So I just ran with that.
- Girl, shut the hell up.
I can sew.
But does she recognize that?
No.
That's so inappropriate, in front of RuPaul and Edward Enninful.
So hell yeah, I'm pissed.
- Well, listen. I can't--
- She played favorites. It's fine.
- OK. But you're not one of her favorites?
- Apparently not. - Of course you are, my girl.
- Apparently not.
- She is.
- [chuckles] - Uh-huh.
- OK.
- Little sister I want to punch in the face.
- Yeah, it's that.
Sorry, girl.
- Well, good luck. I can't wait to see it.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
- Nice to meet you.
- Lovely to meet you. - Bye. Lovely to meet you.
[dog whines]
- Now, listen up, ladies.
Tomorrow on the main stage, we'll be joined
by our extra-special guest judge.
From "Heartstopper" and "Vogue" cover girl,
Yasmin Finney will be here.
[queens cheering]
- I love Yasmin.
And she's gonna be in bloody "Doctor Who."
- Is there anything you'd like to add?
- Yes, I would like to say, ladies, good luck,
and don't fuck it up.
[queens cheering]
Come, Ru.
all: Bye.
- Bye.
[upbeat music]
- I need to concentrate on what I'm doing because--
- Yeah, you're starting again, aren't you?
- I've changed my mind.
So I'm gonna go with a gown.
- Have you ever made a gown before?
- Never. - OK.
[laughs]
- Is this a long train?
- Well, it will be. Fingers crossed.
How are you doing? - Yeah, I'm good.
I'm constructing pieces, and then I've got to get on the sewing machine
and finish the skirt.
The idea behind my look is Hollywood glam.
And I've put together this gorgeous massive, big sun hat.
I'm gonna be honest.
I think it's pretty stun.
- You been having a nice time, just standing here?
- Aren't you a sweetheart?
- My best friend in this competition
is Linda the magical secret horse pony.
[gasps] Says you're gonna lose.
She's had a bit of ketamine. She's not moving anywhere.
- [laughs] - Thank you, pony, for your secrets.
- Mwah.
- Cara, you're super quiet. Are you OK, babes?
- I was really excited to meet Edward Enninful
and talk about my idea.
But it would have been nice to not feel undermined
the entire time by my housemate that was next to me.
- Why? What made you feel like that? What did I do?
- You challenged me by saying that-- - Like, when I said what?
- Can I say what I need to say? - Go on.
- Thank you.
So you challenged me by saying, one,
that you've never seen anything that I've sewn.
And then you asked for examples.
- Can I speak now?
- Yes, you may.
- Right, so I've literally never saw a dress that you've sewn before.
- You have.
- Obviously, I'm not gonna stand there
and make you look like an idiot in front of someone.
- You did!
- But if I haven't saw you sew a dress, then I haven't saw you sew a dress.
- Maybe you just don't listen. Maybe that's the problem.
- She's so mad.
But, like, I don't know why.
Like, it's not that deep.
- How can you not understand that it was not OK for you to do that?
Why is it so hard to get through your thick skull
that I didn't like that?
I felt extremely undermined by her.
And there is a little tone of, I want to be better than you.
And that is the damn truth.
- Well, fair enough that you didn't like that.
All I'm saying, I have not seen a dress that you have made,
personally haven't seen. - You have.
- Well, if I fucking have, I would literally say, yes, I have.
- Maybe you just didn't ask because you don't give a fuck.
- Name a dress that I've seen you sew, though,
literally, 'cause I haven't. so I'm not gonna--
- Oh, my God. I don't owe you anything.
I don't owe you an example.
I don't owe you this.
- Imagine what they're like when they can't decide
whose turn it is to take the bins out.
[laughs]
- I think, at the end of the day,
we're under a lot of pressure.
So I think, if you're getting a vibe that, Cara, you're mad--
- I'm pissed.
- Well, I'm sorry that I made you feel like that,
and obviously, I would never want to make you feel like that.
- And that's all it takes. That's all it takes.
- Well, of course. Of course I am sorry.
And I'm not gonna obviously make you feel upset
and make you feel some type of way.
- Well, you did.
- I'll let her calm down,
we'll talk later, and we will sort it out.
This is just another day in the Tomara household.
- We don't need to be scrapping like this.
- You can call your landlord in the morning.
- Yeah. [laughs]
- Everyone in the Werk Room is stressed.
- I just don't know if I've got enough fabric.
- People are starting their designs afresh.
- Oh, no, I think-- I think I'm stuck.
- Linda's done a shit on the floor.
What's gonna happen tomorrow?
- Pow.
- So then she said to her, you have seen me in clothes
that I've made before.
[upbeat music]
- [vocalizing]
- [singing] Here we go, go, lovelies
- Today is elimination day in the dog pound.
And unfortunately, one of these bitches
is about to be rehomed.
- What do I have to do?
Everything.
- The vibe in the Werk Room this morning is mixed.
Some people are feeling really good about their looks.
Other people are really quite nervous.
And panic is not the way to good fashion.
- Ah.
[sighs] I just don't do hot in sewing.
So I'm just really hurting myself right now.
I am stressed because I've never made a gown before.
Let's hope my acting skills will deliver.
Because my dress is quite simple,
I wanted to take it to the next level.
- What's the concept? - My poor fish has died.
So it is her funeral.
I was like, why not kill my own fish?
Be less serious and just full-on sell the story.
And so hopefully, I'll be OK.
Please.
- So, you two, how are you feeling?
You feeling excited?
- Yeah, dead excited. How are you?
- I'm actually very confident today, I think.
- Mm-hmm.
- Once I get everything done and it feels done--
I just got to attach a sleeve, do a bit of hand-sewing--
I can really start getting ready.
- And Ru was saying he liked the whole Grace Jones vibe
with the hood and everything. - Yeah.
- And then I was thinking of doing a big train.
But we were chatting, weren't we, and we thought,
why not make a bigger hood? - Yeah.
- So I'm going to be like Disgrace Jones of Newcastle.
- [laughs]
- Yours looks like a really sexy Barbie.
But you never know, you might get another badge.
- Second badge, babes.
- Well, I need me first. And so do you.
- I need my first as well.
- You never know, double win.
- Do you know what? I would quite happily let
either of you have the win this week.
I'm just gonna put it out into the universe.
- I'd quite happily not let you have the win this week.
- I'd like you to fail miserably, but that's--yeah, that's just me.
- I think it's just time to, like, focus and just go for it.
- That is what I'm doing as well.
I really just cannot even be bothered to think about
the happenings of yesterday.
I just want to get my shit done.
- How's your outfit going?
- I mean, it's not how I wanted it to look.
But I still think that I will at least be safe.
My first concept was to do an entirely full-feathered look.
However, I might have bitten off a little bit more
than I can chew in the time frame that I've been given.
- Let's not talk about how we wanted it to look,
'cause, girl, I had to completely--
- Yeah. - I had to replan my ideas.
Didn't have enough fabric to do the lining.
I literally had to completely re-concept my idea.
So I've come back in today like, shit.
It's just a fucking nightmare.
[laughs]
I'm just gonna give, like, a little, like, tie wrap situation
with a little pussy strap.
- A little tie-her-up.
- A little pussy strap, yeah. - OK.
Do you think that you'll be able to get by with this?
- Fingers crossed.
- Oh, my God.
Not good, baby girl.
It's not good.
- I'm just hoping that it's enough to keep me in.
[both laugh]
- How are you feeling? And how do you think you'll place?
- Oh, I have no idea at this stage.
I do slightly wish I hadn't chose something quite so complicated to make.
- I was gonna say, you really dived in.
- It's double-sided tape time.
I haven't done that for about 10 years.
My look is not far from being finished.
But I'm feeling good about it.
I'm not the worst look in the room.
- I'm super excited to wear mine.
- Yeah, I bet you are.
- I think, with the updo, cinched waist,
body, like, tight, like, yeah.
I'm-- - Tight and right, bitch.
- Tight and right.
- I think I stand a good chance of being in the top today.
My outfit has really come together now.
So I'm definitely very confident.
- How are you selling it, girl?
- I mean, she's gonna sell the showgirl that she is.
She's gonna give a little something.
- Yeah. - I mean, it's cute.
- Yeah. - The colors are cute.
It's just, like, you got to be wary of looking
like it's wearing you, 'cause the waist--
- Bitch.
- The waist--but yeah, but tea, but, like, I'm not wrong.
Like, the waist needs to be in.
- Girl, put me in a plastic bag full of shit,
and I'm gonna wear the bag of shit. - Yeah.
- You concentrate on your big shoulders and big hips, bitch,
and I'll do mine. - Yeah, girl.
And it's gonna be fierce. - Ooh!
- I'm gonna be confident on what I'm gonna wear,
even if it is shit.
I'm gonna tell myself that it's the best couture pet shop look
you have ever seen!
And I'm gonna sell it, bitch.
Be ready.
[RuPaul's "Cover Girl"]
- [laughs]
[singing] Cover girl, put the bass in your walk
Head to toe, let your whole body talk
[applause] - Yes, mama.
- Yes!
- Welcome to the main stage of "RuPaul's Drag Race UK."
Michelle Visage.
Now, I bet you give a pet a good home.
- Ru, I have a ferret down my pants right now.
- [laughs] Really?
I have a gerbil.
- Had a gerbil. [laughter]
- And national treasure Graham Norton.
Hey, do you ever bring your dogs to the set?
- No, I'm afraid Michelle might stuff them down our pants.
[laughter]
- And our extra-special guest judge,
the gorgeous Yasmin Finney.
Welcome, my darling.
- Hi.
- Yasmin, do you have any pets?
- Oh, no, Ru. I can barely keep my Tamagotchi alive.
[laughter] - Wow.
- I have no idea what that is, but keep it away from Michelle.
- Yes!
- This week, we challenged our queens to rescue pet shop items
and turn them into catwalk couture.
Racers, start your engines.
And may the best drag queen win.
[singing] You have the right to be free
Up first, Kate Butch.
- She's off her trolley.
- She is strutting down the street in her fabulous furs.
There's someone waiting around the corner to chuck a tin of red paint over her.
But she couldn't give two shits.
Classic Kate Butch.
- She's not pussyfooting around.
[laughter]
- I'm pelting.
- I am feeling fabulous on this runway.
I've got my emotional support tiger.
- Oh. - Oh!
- And I'm just having a camp old time!
- She's grr-eat.
[laughter]
Up next, Banksie.
- [gasps]
- She's serving Bandanna-rama.
- And she's serving legs for days.
- Yes.
- She's walking down the runway dressed in her late '90s,
early 2000s Chanel handkerchief creation,
giving an ode to Dakota Schiffer, to Lady Bunny,
to Trixie Mattel.
- Show me the bunny.
[laughter]
- She's turned handkerchiefs and horse blankets into couture.
And you know what?
I'm serving the diva house down.
- Ru, what's the code for black bandannas again?
- I don't know.
I was hoping you knew.
- I know what yellow means.
- Yeah, we all know what yellow means.
- You're doing it right now.
[laughter]
- Cara Melle.
- I've always liked a cockatoo.
[laughter]
- This is 24-parrot gold.
[laughter]
- My outfit is mimicking the colors of my lovely parrot
that I have named Edward after Mr. Edward Enninful.
- Is that a parrot in your pocket,
or are you just happy to see me?
- My parrot's talking to me, and I'm talking back.
[as parrot] Cara, you look amazing.
Cara, sell that look, bitch.
OK, get off.
[laughs]
- Polly want a cracker?
- Cracker? I don't even know her.
- Oh!
- Polly wants to know if she killed her family to wear this outfit.
[laughter]
- Ginger Johnson.
- Toyah Willcox, it's been years.
- I am serving Jem and the Holograms
straight from the roller derby, on their way for a rumble in the car park.
- I wonder what she keeps in her hair.
- Secrets.
- I have taken really sweaty pink snakeskin PVC.
I am now a boil in the bag, bad mood, and a bad attitude
under this wig.
- Rough and ready.
- Alexis Saint-Pete.
Oh, she's serving fish.
[bell tolling]
- I'm not a vet, but I think that fish is dead.
[laughter]
- It is a sad, sad day, everybody,
because my fish, Johnny, has died.
[whimpers]
I am being respectable.
So I'm wearing a little bit longer gown with a longer slit,
making sure that Johnny remembers the mother as she was,
a sexy little bitch.
Bye, Johnny.
- Oh. - Oh.
Now she's serving sashimi.
- Goodbye, Johnny!
You were the worst pet I've ever had!
- Sashimi outside.
- [cries]
- Why don't you come up and sashimi sometime?
Oh. [laughter]
- Up next, Miss Naomi Carter.
- It's time for Netflix and grills.
[laughter]
- I have no idea what I'm serving you right now.
But it's something on my body.
And I look shit.
- Rapunzel gone bad.
- My tits are out.
Me--can I say clit?
My flaps are pretty much hanging out.
But I'm just serving you attitude for days, baby.
- Come on, freaknik.
- Whoo, ooh. - OK.
- DeDeLicious.
- Heading to the clinic for a deworming.
- Why is the dog here? [laughter]
- I'm feeling really confident in this outfit.
I got my dog under my arm.
And she's got a matching collar, which is real cute.
Anybody for walkies? Hee-hee.
- I puppy love this.
[laughter]
- I've got two dog collars on my shoulder.
Got this tight little pencil skirt.
And I'm just serving it up down the runway
'cause I really want the judges to buy what I'm selling.
- Aww.
Always remember to spay and neuter your pets
and maybe your drag queens as well?
- Tomara Thomas.
- Our flaming-ho.
- I'm stomping the runway like my name
is Naomi Campbell, bitch.
The hair's bouncing.
The feathers are flowing.
And these judges are eating me up.
- Get the flock out of here, girl.
[laughter]
- I am selling it, selling it!
Buy me, baby!
- Funny story-- fabric shop closed.
[laughter]
- Clothes are overrated, Graham.
- Michael Marouli.
- Wanted this look to give very feminine, mysterious,
dark lady kind of...[moans]
- [with New York accent] Mystic Michael Marouli.
[laughter]
Let me tell you your fucking fortune.
[laughter]
- It just hugs my body.
It stretches in the right places.
I got the waist right in, the train, the hood,
the whole damn thing.
- [with New York accent] Call 1-800-Michael-Marouli.
[laughter]
[normally] Vicki Vivacious.
- Oh, my stars. - Oh.
- The idea behind my look is Malibu Barbie realness.
I've used all equestrian material.
God knows I love to ride a horse.
[horse neighs]
- Ahoy, seamen.
[laughter]
- I am loving my color palette, loving my concept.
I am feeling myself!
Let's go to the beach.
- Nobody likes a shady beach.
[laughter]
- Welcome, ladies.
Based on your Pet Shop Girls runway presentations,
I've made some decisions.
When I call your name, please step forward.
Kate Butch.
Ginger Johnson.
Michael Marouli.
Vicki Vivacious.
Ladies, you are safe.
You may leave the stage.
[dramatic music]
Ladies, you represent the tops and bottoms of the week.
Now it's time for the judges' critiques.
First up, Banksie.
- Tonight, Banksie, I was blown away.
All of it worked--houndstooth, dogtooth,
one of my favorite prints.
I love how you tied it in with the bandanna
and also did the Stevie Nicks kind of flowy sleeves.
Joy.
- It's so well finished and put together.
Very, very impressive.
Well done, Banksie.
- Hello, Banksie. How are you?
- I'm good, hon. How are you?
- I'm good. I'm so proud of you.
This is the Banksie that I know and love all the way from Manchester.
And I'm blown away. Your outfit is incredible.
It's elevated. It's gorgeous.
And I expected nothing less.
- I love the way this outfit moves.
Can you do a spin for us?
- A little spin.
- Ooh. - Oh.
- Now, your legs, do they go all the way up?
- Yeah. I mean, I found them in a skip.
But I've kind of stuck them back on, seeing what happens.
- All right, well, thank you, Banksie. - Thank you.
- Up next, Cara Melle.
- Going from, you know, the top down,
the amount of work that must have gone into the feathered bodice
is extraordinary.
My slight problem was, from the waist down,
the skirt just feels like you haven't quite finished it.
You haven't quite thought it through.
- There's little things I would have changed,
like the black strap that's coming out
under the little parrot on the right.
- Ah, yes. - Yes.
- Certain things I just want hidden.
Just remember all your Ts to be crossed and all your Is to be dotted.
- Thank you.
- Cara Melle, wow, wow, wow.
The beat is giving.
I don't know what setting powder you use,
but I need it when I go backstage.
[laughter]
- I'll hook you up, girl. - Thank you.
- I got you.
- I'm obsessed. - Oh, thank you.
I'm obsessed with you, though, child.
- Thank you. - Lord.
- It's the skirt that just throws it all off.
Tell me about it.
- Well, I originally had an idea of doing a full
head-to-toe feather look.
And I realized that was very ambitious.
- Well, the colors are gorgeous.
I understand what you were trying to do.
It just feels unfinished.
- Thank you. - Great, thank you.
Up next, Alexis Saint-Pete.
- Well, finally, the answer to the question,
what to wear to your fish's funeral?
[laughter]
- I loved the selling of the story.
I thought it was really cute.
What didn't work for me, Alexis,
is, that slit is really high.
We see your triangle of happiness--
or sadness, depending upon the day.
So if you're gonna show us,
make it like, I meant to do that.
- Yeah.
- I think the slit is just the perfect length.
It was giving. - Thank you.
- I love this fabric.
And I love what you were trying to do with this dress.
Somehow, because it's symmetric,
the neckline is a little bit wonky.
And the hem there is just a bit questionable.
Thank you, Alexis Saint-Pete. - Thank you very much.
- All right, it's time for Miss Naomi Carter.
- Listen, you had fun with this one, Miss Naomi Carter.
And that's what it's all about.
But to me, there's not much going on outfit-wise.
I think my main issue was with the little piece of tape
that's going right up.
- I mean, it is dental floss as bikini bottom.
It's--
- Keep it fresh, baby.
- It does--it does draw the eye.
- Yeah.
What is the fabric it's made out of?
- Can I take these out? - Yeah, take them out.
[laughter]
- So it's basically out of, like, cable,
like, tie wrapped kind of thing.
But I didn't have enough of the orange.
So I've had to, like, incorporate some more in
just to cover the puss, 'cause honestly, girl, she'd have been on show.
[laughter]
- Listen, I'm not mad at the concept.
I just think, if you gave it a little bit more structure,
it would make more sense, instead of,
oh, she's just wrapped tape around herself and come out here.
Am I right?
- You are right, baby. You're right. - Exactly.
- Wow. I am just, like, in awe of those braids.
I'm sending a picture to my hairstylist tomorrow.
And it will be on my next red carpet.
- Girl, you would be the hit of the club in this outfit.
- You know it.
- It's so wrong, it's almost right.
You know what I mean?
It's rot-ten.
But I love it.
I love it. I really do.
It's rot-ten!
[laughter]
Thank you, Miss Naomi Carter.
Up next, we've got DeDeLicious.
- Ooh, DeDeLicious, she can paint.
The cone of shame on your sleeves, what are they made from?
- They're made from dog collars that I found in the Werk Room.
- Very smart.
I was really pleased.
And I was pleased with your performance as well.
- Thank you.
- Rich bitch and her bitch.
It was very finished and fun.
This is really impressive.
- The silhouette that you've got really suits you.
And the padding, like, fits your body perfectly.
Yeah, this look is probably one of my favorites tonight.
- Fab. Thank you so much.
- I love it.
The severity of those shoulders, and that hair!
What a great performance.
- Thank you.
- Up next, Tomara Thomas.
- So I'm assuming you're not much of a sewer?
- Yes. I got that glue gun, baby.
And I said, right, me and you, were gonna be good friends.
- This shouldn't have worked, 'cause it's almost, like,
textbook what not to do in a design challenge.
- Right. - But it does work.
- The colors you put together, the yellow with the hot pink,
the fuchsia, is electrifying.
I would like to see not your ass one time, once, maybe once.
- Just once.
- Once this competition. - OK.
- I love it, though.
And I'm jealous of it.
- You are fierce.
I feel like I've just seen a 2023 sneak peek
of the Victoria's Secret model runway.
- Thank you so much.
- Walk us through the preparation of this outfit.
- I used to make these in primary school.
Do you know what I mean? To fan us down.
- Yeah. - So I thought, let me just
hot glue gun these little ruffles
and then, obviously, the feathers,
to make that gorgeous shape and direction.
And yeah, that's it, really.
- You look like Demi Moore. Have people said that to you?
- Yes, people do.
- When I interviewed you in the Werk Room with your roommate,
there was some discussion.
- Yes.
- And I was told that that discussion continued on.
Is that correct? - Yes.
So Cara felt that I'd, like, dogged her out, saying, like, she's--
I've never seen outfits that she's made.
And I just want to say, sorry if I did make you feel that way.
And I know you can sew. And you're amazing.
I didn't mean anything nasty by it or anything like that,
'cause I wouldn't.
- I also want to apologize, because in the heat of the moment,
I did get very frustrated.
But it was not valid for me to then make you feel
just as low as I felt, so I apologize for that as well.
- All right, well, we've cleared the air there.
- Thank you very much.
- Thank you, ladies.
I think we've heard enough.
While you untuck in the Werk Room,
the judges and I will deliberate.
You may leave the stage.
- I have never been happier to be safe in my entire life.
- Coming into "Drag Race," it was the one challenge
that I was thinking, oh, God.
I am creative.
I am crafty.
And sewing is something... - Ooh, you crafty cow.
- Foreign to me. And I--
- Really? - Yeah.
- I can't believe that. - You look incredible.
- Oh, thank you. - I'm gonna be honest, though.
The two sat in the middle, I thought you were gonna be in the top.
- I do think my outfit is probably one of the better constructed.
When I got it all on me, I was like...
- Looks amazing. - Oh, I quite--I quite like this.
- Yes. - I look quite pretty, actually.
[laughter]
Babe, as long as I'm sitting down with a cocktail,
not stressing about lyrics, I'm thrilled.
- I'm a little bit disappointed because, you know,
sewing is one of my things, one of my skills.
- And you're allowed to be disappointed. Own it. It's fine.
- It's a human reaction.
And to be fair, this does look like something
you could buy in a shop. - Thank you.
This could have been my week.
I'm kind of furious, to be honest.) [laughs]
- Oh. Oh, here they are.
- Come on, girls. - Come on in.
Take a seat.
- We are back in Untucked.
- Sit yourselves down.
[indistinct chatter]
- And I feel brilliant.
Me, DeDe, and Tomara are probably the safest girls.
- Which I'm gagged at because this week,
I was shitting myself.
They were just like, yeah, it's all hot glue and things.
But, like, you just look like you're
fresh from the Victoria's Secret show, I guess.
I'm gobsmacked for once in my life.
I feel on cloud nine.
- Me and Banksie got very, very good critiques.
I would love to win.
I'm really, really hungry for it right now.
- You kept that quiet.
[laughter]
- Oh.
I feel so good.
I finally redeemed myself after last week.
Ah! It's so exciting.
- I'm just really emotional and overwhelmed.
And I couldn't even speak back to them.
I'm happy for it to go to either of us.
I think that it was a really good day.
- I think it's you. I definitely think it's you.
- Well, thank you.
This is such a big moment.
I feel like I'm being validated.
And it just feels absolutely surreal.
- Alexis, my gorge, how are you?
- Ugh, I don't know.
- What did they say? - What did they say?
- I feel like my entire world has just fallen apart.
They did say that my dress looked a little bit unfinished
and that you could see my coo-coo.
My emotions are all over the place.
And I feel like joining Johnny down the toilet.
- Naomi over there, you're very quiet, my darling.
- Yes. Out of everybody else, I think I was the least favorite, for sure.
But I think I just pulled out a shit stick,
do you know what I mean, and just got the shit end of it.
I don't think they were a big fan on the pussy strap.
- Baby girl.
That thong is so small that she is serving us moose knuckle.
It'll be like, ooh.
I see your goodies, baby.
Ru was dying over it.
- But she called me rotten. I thought, here we fucking go.
And then she were like, but it's a good kind of rotten!
I were like, yeah, baby!
I fucking love it, honestly.
I'm not delusional. It is rotten.
But she loved it in a weird way.
I don't know.
- So, Cara, what did they say about you?
- It was just the skirt.
They said it was unfinished.
And it was. I mean, it's the truth.
I'm just so down on myself right now because, like,
to go from the top, like we were last week,
and now I feel like I'm in the bottom, it's a shit feeling.
Yeah.
God, I just-- - Don't. Don't, baby.
- Don't, babe, don't. Come on.
- I don't want to see anyone get upset and cry.
So it's time to just draw a line under it and keep going.
Just while we're all in the feels, I do just want to say,
I'm sorry if I made you feel a certain way this week.
You know I love your little bones.
You know you're fucking amazing.
You know you're gorgeous. You are gorgeous.
You are amazing. You can fucking sew, bitch.
She can sew.
- But have you seen anything she's sewn?
[laughter]
- Which she has.
- Now, just between us squirrel friends, what do you think?
We'll start with Banksie.
- I'm just gonna say it right out the box, my favorite look of the night.
- All of the colors complemented her--
I mean, the two colors, black and white, complemented her.
And the legs were giving, you know?
She's coming for my gig, and I love it.
- It was so well finished. And it was so original.
I could see something like that on a Paris runway.
- Yeah, Banksie's one to watch.
- All right, Cara Melle.
- Oh!
My heart goes out to her because, you know, it was gorgeous.
And then that skirt.
- That skirt was an afterthought.
And it really brought down the whole outfit.
I was so disappointed in that.
- I just think this challenge, she just ran out of feathers.
That was all.
- All right, up next, Alexis Saint-Pete.
- She heavily relied on the storyline.
And I think she relied on it a bit too much.
- She had fun with it, and she sold it.
I do think, in the end, the funeral--
and this is a problem with funerals always--
a bit one-note.
- [laughs]
- We get it. It's sad.
The fish is dead.
- The outfit was wrong, 'cause every time she walked,
we saw her triangle of sadness.
- I have more of a triangle of humiliation.
- I have a triangle of desperation.
[laughter]
- Mine's a quadrangle. Is that wrong?
[laughter]
- It's an isosceles. - Should I see a doctor?
- All right, DeDeLicious.
- This is a girl who wants it and wants it bad.
- Yeah, there's something you just love about DeDeLicious.
And she does it right.
She's fantastic.
- I just thought everything was very thought through.
And you could tell that she had a plan with this look.
- I think if she takes this approach to every challenge
that we give her, I think this kid can go the distance.
I really do.
All right, now, Miss Naomi Carter.
- You know, she chose a great color palette.
When she came round the corner, it popped.
The trouble was, she stayed on the stage.
- [laughs]
- Graham!
- We could then see the outfit.
- OK, listen.
We all collectively fell in love with her
when she took the grills out and started talking to us.
- Yes.
- But this look tonight just felt rushed.
- Yeah, she may have missed a few beats.
But the performance--honey, the performance was giving, you know?
She was stomping down that runway
like she was off to get some patty and jerk chicken
at the corner shop, you know?
She was ready.
- But that strip--
that strip down the center,
it was such a train wreck that it's almost at the place
of being really right.
- Almost, Ru. - Almost.
All right, let's move on to Tomara Thomas.
- That outfit absolutely should have been a huge disappointment and a disaster.
But it wasn't.
- Let me tell you why.
The idea of having those big ostrich plumes that come out...
- Yeah. - They brought everything together
and created a silhouette. - Yes.
- I think Tomara Thomas is going to be
Victoria's Secret's next supermodel face.
- I love it. I love it. Good on you.
Tomara Thomas.
- Ru, is it fair to say that the sun'll come out Tomara?
[laughter]
- We got the moon.
- We certainly did.
All right. [claps]
Silence.
I think we've heard enough.
Bring back my girls.
Welcome back, ladies.
I've made some decisions.
Tomara Thomas...
You are safe.
You may join the other girls.
DeDeLicious...
you are safe.
You may join the other girls.
- Thank you.
- Banksie, this week, you broke the hanky code.
[laughter]
Condragulations.
You are the winner of this week's challenge.
[cheers and applause]
- Ah!
I won!
I am so happy.
This is incredible.
- And the recipient of a coveted RuPeter badge.
- [singing] Rule Britannia
- Yay.
- Wear it with pride.
You may join the other girls.
- If I could just say, I'm so grateful.
Thank you so much.
[applause]
- Miss Naomi Carter.
Your outfit is iconic.
But two thongs don't make a right.
I'm sorry, my dear, but you are up for elimination.
- I will fight for my life to stay in this competition.
I ain't going nowhere.
- Cara Melle.
Your top was a feather fantasy,
but your bottom was for the birds.
Alexis Saint-Pete, Johnny the fish is in a better place.
I wish I could say the same about your dress.
Alexis Saint-Pete...
I'm sorry, my dear, but you are up for elimination.
- [gasps]
- Cara Melle, you are safe.
You may join the other girls.
- Thank you so much.
Girls, kill it. - Well done, baby.
- Two queens stand before me.
I've consulted with the judges,
but the final decision is mine to make.
Ladies, this is your last chance
to impress me, save yourself from elimination.
The time has come to lip-synch...
for your life!
- I'm very upset.
But this is what I do.
So let the show begin.
- Good luck.
And don't fuck it up.
[Tiesto & Charli XCX's "Hot In It"]
- [singing] It's Charli, baby, Tiesto
You won't see me crying on the bathroom floor
I ain't never coming back for more
Want to see you walking out that door
Bye-bye, bye-bye
You won't see me begging for a second chance
Say I need you 'cause it don't make sense, boy
You just lost a 10 out of 10, won't lie, lie, lie

Rocking it, dropping it

I look hot in it
Tonight I'm gonna be rocking it, dropping it
Shake my ass, no stopping it
I look hot in it, hot in it
I look hot in it
Moving till my feet get sore
Hands all on me till my dress gets torn
Punch me, do it, do it real hard-core, my, my, my, my
You and me, we never, ever made much sense
I'm too independent, no offense, boy
Don't be sad about the things I've said
Don't cry, cry, cry
Tonight I'm gonna be rocking it, dropping it
Shake my ass, no stopping it
I look hot in it, hot in it
I look hot in it
Rocking it, dropping it - Whoa!
- [singing] Shake my ass, no stopping it
I look hot in it, hot in it
I look hot in it
Tonight I'm gonna be rocking it, dropping it
Shake my ass, no stopping it
I look hot in it, hot in it
I look hot in it
Tonight I'm gonna be rocking it, dropping it
Shake my ass, no stopping it
I look hot in it, hot in it
[cheers and applause]
- I've made my decision.
[tense music]
Miss Naomi Carter...
shantay, you stay.
[dramatic music]
- Congratulations, girl.
- Thank you so-- honestly, thank you so bloody much.
I fucking love you. I love you all.
You're amazing. Like, thank you.
Thank you, babe. Honestly.
You're amazing. Never stop being amazing, honestly.
- Alexis Saint-Pete.
Say it loud.
You made Poland proud.
Now, sashay away.
- Thank you so much.
Thank you.
[applause]
- Whoo! - Love you, girl.
- I love you so much, girl.
- Well, I guess that was my own funeral.
Bye-bye.
[laughter]
[cheers and applause]
- I didn't want to go home first.
I wanted to show so much more.
Why does it have to be cheap shit?
But I'm walking away as a winner already in my heart.
I'm so glad to be here in my new homeland.
And I hope to come back stronger than ever.
Love you all so much. Peace out.
- Condragulations, queens.
And remember, if you can't love yourself,
how the hell you gonna love somebody else?
Can I get an amen up in here?
all: Amen!
- All right, let the music play.
[singing] To, to, to, to the moon
To the moon, to the moon
Come on and take me away
To, to, to, to the moon, to the moon, to the moon
Next time on "RuPaul's Drag Race UK"...
It's time for the girl group Maxi Challenge.
[queens cheering]
- Ginger Johnson doesn't have a girl group fantasy.
[laughs]
- My kind of girl band.
- You were giving us Nicole Scherzinger the house down boots,
thigh-highs, everything else.
- I worry that people watching this tonight will have
post-traumatic Spice disorder.
[laughter]
- [singing] If you want a - Wrong leg.
- Who was it? - It was you.
- Let's not have another argument.
- [singing] To, to, to, to the moon
To the moon, blast off
To the moon, come on and take me away
To, to, to, to the moon
To the moon
To the moon, come on and take me away
To, to, to, to the moon
To the moon, blast off
To the moon, come on and take me away
To, to, to, to the moon, to the moon, to the moon
