While the nation has spent the week gripped by the #WAGathaChristie saga, there was something new to obsess about on Thursday night when the second episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race
UK dropped on
BBC Three.
And we’re pleased to say that the queens did not come to play in episode two, leaving us screaming and meme-ing all night long.And while parts of the sisterhood were getting stronger as the queens starred in Downton Draggy, the knives were also out in the Werk Room and on the runway.
As usual, the fans on
Twitter were out in force to spill the tea...
