Drag Race UK: Season 6

[ButterTart]

I'm sorry, but that chorus was FAR too good to be wasted on a girl group challenge. That should be a proper song.

 

[VoR]

I did think it was the best song Ava Max had put out in about five years.

Good episode! It's such a nice cast I'm genuinely sad to see any of them go, but Zahirah was definitely a little out of her depth, and losing Lill at this stage is just unthinkable.

I love that Elephant is now a cult gay anthem confirmed.

 

[K.C.]

I was absolutely convinced I was listening to Ava Max That song had no business being that good.

Zahaira was just annoying tbh. Glad she's gone.

Marmalade really wasn't that bad in the group challenge.

 

[K.C.]

Also, when was the last time it was this obvious who was gonna win this early?

I was thinking this too, although IIRC seasons 1 to 3 all seemed pretty clear cut from the get go, despite Bimini's post lockdown challenge in 2.

 

[Marilyn]

The absolute terror I felt at the possibility of losing Lill

 

[straightorbroken]

Had no idea who the guest judge was until the song began.

Burkey was brilliant - gutted they didn't guest judge her too.

Chanel was very lucky I thought, thank god she delivers at all times if not the actual challenges.

Sigh of relief for Lill. Love that the let's just call it 'energy' remains the same if she's topping or bottoming

 

[Sheena]

That lip sync was terrible. I thought it might be a double sashay at one point.

 

[Generic Account]

I'm so glad that Lill survived and I hope she keeps this level of non-energy all the way to the finale.

 

[Lucille]

EVERYONE thought Bimini had it in the bag for season 2!

 

[Lucille]

Why is LIL so ALLURING?!? I want her her to succeed despite a near terminal lack of VIGOUR!

 

[ButterTart]

Why is LIL so ALLURING?!? I want her her to succeed despite a near terminal lack of VIGOUR!

It’s the lack of vigour that makes her such an inspiration. She’s a lesson to us all that you can succeed without putting any graft in whatsoever.

 

[Lucille]

So intensely ASPIRATIONAL!

 

[K.C.]

I think Lill is just really nice. When she told the group she didn't wanna hold them back by forcing them into a basic routine and then apologized for not delivering to their level, I found that very endearing. It gives her an underdog quality.

 

[K.C.]

Also, her snake impression was funny lol

 

[Generic Account]

I think that between Marmalade's pre-planned inspirational monologues, La Voix being La Voix and Zahira doing THIS in every confessional, Lill plodding around nonchalantly is just a breath of fresh air.

 

[supermassive]

'ar Lill is just such a VIBE. Dead down to earth and just bloody mad with that hair and those tatts x

 

[passthatdutch]

EVERYONE thought Bimini had it in the bag for season 2!

Not from the first few episodes though. Didn't Bimini start to really shine post lockdown filming break? They were bottom and lip synching in the first episode. Laurence seemed the favourite at the start.

And Lill winning the sewing challenge by accident remains the best part of the series so far.

Especially when her win also clocked the incredibly evil Chanel simultaneously.

Lawrence was the clear front runner in part 1, but Bimini’s part two arc definitely suggested she was going to win, and I remember everyone being quite confused when she didn’t. Lawrence was not a popular winner at all at the time.

 

[lolly]

You could make an amazing UK All Stars cast from just series two and six.

 

[VoR]

I like to think of Lill as a sort of Pokemon evolution of the original barely conscious queen.

 

[Lucille]

I do think a well cast UK All-Stars could be AS2 level good as they have 6 seasons of queens to pull from.

 

[Lucille]

An obvious MUST HAVE for the first UK All-Stars!

 

[Generic Account]

I want the bottom rung S1 girls back too.

Sum Ting. Vinegar. Even Scaredy Cat.

And Gothy AGAIN.

Oh and DDC I suppose.

 

[Generic Account]

I really can't remember most of the Series 4 cast at all past their names. Even Dakota who I loved-ish at the time.

 

[straightorbroken]

They could do 2 UK All Stars in as many years instead of the main show quite frankly. And Canada is equally overdue their own strand of AS.

 

[Lucille]

DRUK 2 could easily provide half the contestants for All Stars

TAYCE!
BIMINI!
A’WHORA!
VRON!
SISTER SISTER! (With face #3)

 

[passthatdutch]

It's wild that Tia is the only queen from season 2 so far to have a second run. When you consider the strength of the cast and who has turned up on various vs the world and global all stars, it make no sense.

 

[Lucille]

Tayce and Bimini, if they are to return, are rightly holding out for a UKAS or USAS run.

 

[K.C.]

Did we ever find out why they've never done a UK All Stars season? Surely, budget isn't an issue anymore, if they're now giving actual cash prizes and if Spain has been able to do one (unless the Spanish drag market is that much bigger??).

 

[Dark Carnival]

Dead Or Alive is so good! It’s been a while since we last got a good song from Drag Race.
The lipsync was mediocre though, which makes me fear for Lil.

Surely it's down to Ru's schedule being too full, and logistics of filming it. Either that or they decided to prioritise UK vs The World fpr Canada and UK over a country specific All Stars (which ha turned out to be a poor decision IMHO).

 

[Berly]

I think there must be a contract for so many vs the worlds else otherwise it makes little sense.

For Spain, who have had one, it strangely feels like it is outside those contracts (even outside WOW/Drag Race itself, like the only independant franchise) as no one from the espana series has been on any other va, global or otherwise

 

[jyxz]

No idea how Actavia wasnt in the bottom 2 tbh

I think that’s potentially more to do with the pool of queens with strong enough English to compete in an international series being smaller in Drag Race España than other countries’ franchises.

Arantxa was on UKvsTW2.

Arantxa was on UKvsTW2.

I forgot that

Oh Kyran's story was heartbreaking.
