The first trailer for Drag Race UK season two has officially dropped

With the festive season over, and much of the UK in local lockdown, the January blues is getting real. Thankfully, BBC Three has released the season two trailer for RuPaul’s Drag Race UK to pull us out of our winter slumber. 

The new trailer was released via Twitter with the caption: “*Screams* The #DragRaceUK series two trailer is here!!!! Continues screaming until January 14 at 7PM when the first episode drops on @bbciplayer.”

In classic Drag Race fashion, the trailer opens with Mother Ru saying her iconic phrase “If you can’t love yourself, how the hell you gonna love somebody else?”, before showing a montage of the queens entering the werkroom.

The show will be returning to our screens on January 14, with 12 new queens competing to be named the UK’s next drag superstar. RuPaul and Michelle Visage will be returning as judges, along with Graham Norton and Alan Carr who will judge on a rotational basis.

Each episode will also include a special celebrity guest judge. So far, Dawn French, Maya Jama, Jessie Ware, Liz Hurley, MNEK, Sheridan Smith, Jourdan Dunn, Lorraine Kelly, and Gemma Collins have all been confirmed.
