Start your engines – RuPaul’s Drag Race UK is back for season 3 this month

Fiona Frawley

And there have been some extremely juicy guest judge announcements this morning.

It’s been a while since the season 2 queens bing bang bonged their way into our hearts over lockdown, and we’ve spent the last few months eagerly awaiting the return of a bitta workroom drama and more top notch parodying of UK soaps. Luckily we won’t have to wait much longer – it was confirmed last night on Twitter that Ru, Michelle and a sickening new line up of queens will be back on our screens from September 23rd.

As if that wasn’t exciting enough, this morning has brought with it more Twitter announcements regarding the guest judge line up, and it’s enough to reduce any girlband worshipper to tears:

I know what you’re thinking – what took her so long? But better late than never, the one and only Emma Bunton will be spicing up the Drag Race judging panel.

We can also expect guest judge appearances from Little Mix star Leigh-Anne Pinnock and reality tv contest royalty Alesha Dixon (exciting news for anyone else who’s had Scandalous by Mis-Teeq stuck in their heads since the early noughties).

Season Three of Drag Race UK will be streaming on BBC iPlayer from September 23rd and if you’re looking for some top quality Irish coverage of each episode, be sure to tune into Sissy That Pod, the iconic unofficial Drag Race recap podcast. Presenters James and Cian are hilarious, know their way around a workroom and always have a stellar lineup of guests.
