The BBC has shut down claims that Doctor Who is on the verge of getting cancelled. Back in 2023, the long-running franchise kicked off its new era when Ncuti Gatwa succeeded Jodie Whittaker and David Tennant as the Fifteenth Doctor. The Sex Education star made his debut in ‘The Giggle, one of the show’s 60th-anniversary specials, before starring in his first full season in 2024. As the franchise’s first-ever Black and queer actor to take on the iconic title character, Gatwa’s performance was met with universal critical acclaim. While Gatwa’s…

Drag Race UK star Lill talks “surprising” fan response

In her GAY TIMES exit interview, Drag Race UK star Lill discusses her “uncomfortable” final episode, fan-favourite status and why RuPaul *shouldn’t* let queens change for the lip-sync. WORDS BY SAM DAMSHENAS SPECIAL THANKS TO JASMINE ALOMA AND SOFIE VAN DE GRAMPEL AT THE BBC “I’m dead important now,” jokes (?) Lill. Over the course of Drag Race UK’s sixth season, which has been lauded as one of the franchise’s best, the Manchester queen has accumulated a die-hard following thanks to her edgy aesthetic and dry sense-of-humour (as well as her word-for-word homage of Geri Halliwell’s…

Drag Race UK: Who the eliminated season 6 queens planned for Snatch Game

Drag Race UK‘s eliminated queens, Saki Yew, Dita Garbo, Zahirah Zapanta and Kiki Snatch, reveal their brilliant impersonations for the iconic Snatch Game. WORDS BY SAM DAMSHENAS With a plethora of Snatch Game champions going on to conquer their respective seasons of Drag Race, from Jinkx Monsoon to Envy Peru and Sharonne, the staple challenge is widely said to “separate” the drag queens from ‘[insert country here]’s Next Drag Superstar’. Often, Snatch Game occurs in the middle of the season, which means half of the queens don’t get the chance to flex…

Michael Marouli reveals that she will ‘come for blood’ on a potential season of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK All Stars.  In an interview with GAY TIMES, the Northern entertainer correctly says it’s “about time” for the British franchise to receive an All Stars equivalent (UK vs the World doesn’t count…) because of the sheer “calibre of queens” that have been introduced over six seasons. “It would go off. I think it would be so successful, so huge. Can you imagine seeing all those personalities back together on our screen? Especially queens that didn’t get…

Zahirah Zapanta may not be the UK’s Next Drag Superstar, but it’s fine. As the Filipino Goddess demurely (and correctly) tells GAY TIMES, “I’m so fierce it hurts. It hurts so much. It’s crazy being this fierce.” Girl groups made a return on this week’s episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK, with the ten remaining queens writing ghoulish lyrics and recording chilling vocals in hopes of securing the UK’s Halloween…
