As the competition heats up on RuPaul's Drag Race UK, episode 6 titled "Thirsty Werk" sees the queens going head-to-head in a brand new challenge.
After last week's controversial elimination, tensions are high among the remaining contestants. But there's no time to dwell on the past as RuPaul announces a new mini challenge. The queens must create a "wet T-shirt" look using only a plain white top and a bucket of water. The winner receives a VIP shopping spree at luxury department store Selfridges.
Next up, it's time for the main challenge. The queens are tasked with creating an educational video on the history of drag. They must teach the viewers about key figures, important moments, and the evolution of drag culture. Oh, and they have to do it all in one take.
As the queens prepare their scripts and costumes, tensions begin to rise. Some queens struggle with the pressure of the challenge, while others worry about portraying drag history accurately.
On the runway, the queens are tasked with showcasing their best "rainy day" looks. Some opt for chic trench coats and boots, while others go for full-on umbrellas and wellies.
Special guest judge Lisa Stansfield joins RuPaul and Michelle Visage on the panel to critique the queens' performances. The educational videos range from informative and entertaining to downright cringeworthy. One queen gives a truly unforgettable performance that has the judges in stitches.
After the judging, RuPaul announces the bottom two queens who will be lip-syncing for their lives. The stakes are higher than ever as the competition narrows down.
Who will stay, and who will sashay away? Tune in to find out on RuPaul's Drag Race UK season 1, episode 6: "Thirsty Werk."
