It seems like whenever one Drag Race ends, another begins!

All Stars 6 just crowned its winner last week, Kylie Sonique Love. Now, this week we have been given an official premiere date for RuPaul’s Drag Race UK season three! The series will see twelve new queens from the United Kingdom compete for the crown and the title of UK’s Next Drag Superstar, and will premiere on BBC iPlayer on Thursday, September 32 at 7:00 p.m. 

Last season, Lawrence Chaney snagged the title, and The Vivienne snagged it in the first season. The queens will include Veronica Green, Vanity Milan, Scarlett Harlett, River Medway, Krystal Versace, Kitty Scott-Claus, Ella Vaday, Elektra Fence, Charity Kase, Choriza May, Anubis, and the first ever cis female competitor in Drag Race history, Victoria Scone.
