After an epic semi-final, which saw It’s A Sin actor Olly Alexander join the panel as a guest judge, it’s time to finally announce the winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK.

The fourth season of the UK’s offshoot of the drag queen competition was packed with drama, incredible outfits and plenty of fabulousness to wow RuPaul, Michelle Visage and rotating judges Alan Carr and Graham Norton.

Also giving their verdicts on the Queens were a slew of starry guest judges, including I’m A Celebrity’s Boy George, Ted Lasso’s Hannah Waddingham and The Morning icon Alison Hammond.

Meanwhile, Drag Race UK also made history when an episode became the first ever out of the entire franchise not to be judged by RuPaul, with former contestant Raven instead doing the honours.

Elsewhere, highlights of the 2022 edition of the programme include Jonbers Blonder’s episode 9 runway look, which RuPaul declared as ‘Moschino meets Gautier’ and calling it one of the best of the series.

In a poignant moment earlier on in the series, Elaine Page was also left in tears watching star Tayce perform her song Memory as a beautiful tribute to co-star Cherry Valentine, who died in September at the age of 28.

Ahead of the finale tonight, here is everything you need to know about who is left in the competition and how to watch it.

Who is in the final of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK?

The competition kicked off with 12 queens, with Just May, Starlet and Copper Topp becoming the first three contestants to sashay away.

After a nailbiting semi-final, Pixie Polite was sent home after a roast challenge – which saw the stars tear down their fellow competitors and judges during a spectacle titled The General Erection.

Narrowly surviving the dreaded lip sync off, Black Peppa made it through to the finals, joining Cheddar Gorgeous, Danny Beard and Jonbers Blonde.

The four will now battle it out to be named winner of Drag Race UK season 4 2022, which has been previously won by the likes of The Vivienne and Lawrence Chaney.
