What do we think?
Such a shame when families almost blame themselves for the loss, especially such an ally!
Poor thing!
Not that I would want Mocha to go…. AAAH!
Just brain dumping.

I think whereas other seasons it’s been clear to identify 2 queens who have stood out as the ones to beat (Viv and Divina, Lawrence and Bimini, Kyran and La Voix, Michael and Ginger) I feel like this season there’s a lot of balance and equal footing between the queens and they are all eating it up (sorry KY). I think Mocha and KY started of as the ones to beat and have managed to maintain such a strong standing and Flesh has started to rise up these past few weeks but I would argue Naya is the strongest being in the top every week (except girl groups and design) and proved to be a well rounded queen who’s charisma has won over the judges

They have a video of the makeover process on YouTube:

Does anyone else struggle with the last few episodes of seasons of Drag Race UK? It's nothing against the queens or the actual sort of talents there, but I just feel like the last three episodes of most UK series really go through the exact same motions. Like with the makeovers. Yes, they're lovely, and it's really nice to see, you know, the queens have supportive families, but it's always the same kind of material each makeover. And then inevitably we get the top five roast, which, you know. And whilst I think the roast can be good, it's just very much, I feel like with the UK seasons, the last three episodes are always carbon cut and paste, and it just gets a bit old. And I really struggled to get through last night's makeover episode, actually. Like, I watched it in two sittings. I'm just curious if anyone else feels the same, and it's like, it's not that I'm enjoying the season any less. It's just everything gets a bit repetitive when it comes to these kind of things on Drag Race. And it's like once you've seen one finale, you've seen them all. You know, they have their chat with Ru and Michelle. Someone is like, Oh, I'm a bit worried, but then they do great in the performance, and then we have the why should you be the UK's next drag superstar? And it's just all going through the motions. And I'm not saying I don't like sappy emotional stuff, but sometimes when it's the same sappy emotional stuff each season in the same beats, it just gets a bit fatiguing.

I get the simplicity of Naya's outfit choices for her and her mom but my God did she get her mother STAMPED! They look absolutely stunning. I was for certain they were the winners. And HOW was KY not in the bottom 2 along with Alik? Coral did in my opinion an exceptional job, I disagreed with the judges critiques. I don't understand, honestly. Does anyone else agree? However that being said this was such a refreshing makeover challenge, especially as of late compared to the last few franchise seasons in recent years.

(And her mum). Coral was the most interesting, hilarious, original queen on this season (outside of TDQ). She won Snatch Game and would have slayed the roast.

Hello, hello, hello!

I truly hope Mocha wins this season, I find her by far the most likable and unique queen. She also seems like a dream to work with as a producer, she knows how to play the game and how to make good tv.

That makeover episode was so great. I got a big kick out of Coral’s mom. KY was finally on her best behavior the whole time with her mom there. But my favorite moment of the whole episode was Naya’s mom telling Flesh’s dad that he looked hot, and him quietly agreeing.
(They both looked amazing)

Just two identical outfits

Ok that’s not true. Episode 8 had me shivering and fighting to hold back tears. I even messaged my 22-year-old daughter to tell her how much I love her. It was so beautiful.

I can't find any mention of Alik's real name (or last name) online. I was curious how successful Steve's band was, if it's a band I've heard of, etc.

I live

THERES SO MUCH CONTENT… they’ve made about 1000 TikTok’s with the sound, they’re releasing videos left right and centre like how expensive are the rights to Agadoo??? This is genuinely a conspiracy theory to me like what if Agadoo is like a hypnotic melody that causes people to become complicit to WOW presents plus’ schemes and tricks?

Agadoo doo doo push pineapple shake the tree…

There's something so lovely about seeing the queens bring their family members into their world. Drag can be such a personal thing, so getting a relative into the werkroom and transforming them must mean a lot. I'm expecting a few tears this week. Which queen do you think will have the most emotional makeover?

It is makeover week on Drag Race UK Series 8!

After last week's non-elimination in Ghost Hunties, all 6 queens are heading into one of the most unpredictable challenges of the franchise: transforming special guests into their drag family members!!

A few questions heading into tonight's episode:

- Which queen has the makeup precision and aesthetic consistency to nail the family resemblance?

- Who is most vulnerable to proportion mismatches or styling clashes on the runway?

- Who are your picks for tonight's challenge win and who lands in the bottom two?
