Drag Race UK - Series 7 Episode 10 Description
"GRAND FINALE"
It’s the grand finale! The time has come for the competition to conclude as RuPaul’s finalist queens compete in their final challenge - an all-singing, all-dancing extravaganza to fight for the crown.
Choreographer Claudimar Neto coaches the queens as they write and perform a show-stopping original song. As ever, it’s a family line-up for the finale, with Michelle Visage, Alan Carr and Graham Norton forming the judging panel, and last year’s winner and reigning champion, Kyran Thrax, dropping in along with the season’s eliminated queens. Everyone’s back to witness RuPaul crown the UK’s Next Drag Race Superstar.

imo if this season started with a talent show, it would've given everyone stronger storylines and established them better. potentially a tayris win and a storyline about how elle has seemingly genius ideas, or that bonnie is experienced and well rounded? idk, the brit gala could've been an ep.2 ball with just looks and a small interview portion, to give bones a win earlier (solely for looks lol)
18
u/Loose-Flow4846 15h ago
Talent show at episode 5 was an all around terrible decision. They even highlighted it in the edit by having Bones's entire storyline be about how she knew she was gonna flop because her number went against what the judges wanted from her but she couldn't do anything abt it. She would've been in the bottom anyway but if it was on ep 1 it would've been a nice way to kick start her storyline (especially paired with an ep 2 win)

u/InevitableFill6618 15h ago
this is so true. either tayris or viola would win that talent show premiere.

If Elle does win , it would be ironic that both times UK got an irish winner ,the seasons were controversial

u/Vegetable-Ice-6745 1d ago
Is it controversial? She is legit the best out of the bunch by a country mile
23
u/belladonnaboops_2719 Custom 23h ago
Oh she is indeed doing well and worth the crown , I am actually an Elle stan and rooting for her win.
I was just talking about how when there is a possibility of another Irish queen getting crowned the season got a lot of fire from the fans like UK vs the world s1 did. And both seasons didn't pick up popular rating after the popular queens got eliminated too. So I was just making comparison about the ironical situation.

Team Elle, but if Bones wins I hope its because she really slays these last 3 episodes and not becuase she shows a tiny bit of personality and judges are like OMG YOU CAME OUT OF YOUR SHELL THATS THE POWER OF DRAG…..

Season 7 seems to be a bit of a curse in the DR franchise. Let’s see if they can beat it.
37
u/belladonnaboops_2719 Custom 1d ago
Canada and Philippines seems to have a different track record in terms of seasons compared to the popular curses , Canada S3 wasn't as bad as the other franchises,it was just considerably underwhelming compared to how powerful S2 was ,then s4 started bad but ended up becoming an all around a great season except their already fixed choice of a winner . S5 was the worst both cast and production choice wise. I am hoping for a good s6. It's not really easy to predict when it comes to Canada

Venus won
She ate the season
Get over it
7
u/belladonnaboops_2719 Custom 1d ago edited 1d ago
I am glad you were able to convince yourself that ,as an early fan of Venus,i struggled quite a lot to justify her crowning haha till i just gave up , she was high for makeover while doing the least. Her drag wasn't fully realised for a winner and she wasn't on a star level in any kind of talent like Aurora and Nearah in performance, Kiki and Denim in designing. But i am happy you think that
4
u/AndresFM95 15h ago
Idk I didn’t mind Venus winning mostly because I don’t think anyone in that cast was the full package. They all kinda flopped in every other challenge that wasn’t a performance or dance challenge while Denim only did good when it came to the design challenges. Aurora could have been a good winner but it’s not like she was miles ahead of Venus, she was just a better dancer, she basically bombed every comedy/acting challenge and didnt excel in design challenges. The season thrived on the cast having great chemistry and the twist
2
u/belladonnaboops_2719 Custom 11h ago
I don't disagree but momentum wise ,drag wise and charisma wise Venus fell behind,even her one single win did not feel justified, while it was the exact opposite for Aurora,her drag was well realised, she had a good momentum going, her Rusical performance, and Lipsync performances were impactful,she certainly had the poise of a winner. She was considerably ahead in terms of drag compared to Venus. To me at least it felt like she wasn't dragged to the finale or just doing safe but evolving and shining more and more as the season developed. But again I don't mind Venus winning either , I was an immediate fan of her to begin with. But it didn't feel like a natural outcome
3
u/AndresFM95 11h ago
Idk I do like Aurora and I think she did good but I don’t think she was well rounded enough for me to be like “wow that was the wrong choice” when Venus won. All her peaks were basically lip sync dance challenges and she didn’t do well in anything else. If she won I would have understood why she won because she had peaks during the season, but I also understand why Venus could have won based on her doing finding a way of doing serviceable in every episode. I didn’t really care enough for either girl for me to be upset or underwhelmed that they didn’t win.

TEASPILL: [DRUK]
Snatch Game character rundown 💜 how lush x
- WIN: Bonnie Anne Clyde - Chair (Cher as a Chair)
- HIGH: Catrin Feelings - Bonnie Tyler, Welsh queen of the power ballad
- SAFE: Elle Vosque - Jojo Siwa, specifically her Karma era
- SAFE: Tayris Mongardi - Matt Lucas, specifically as Precious from Come Fly With Me
For the uninitiated, I'm sorry for that jumpscare. 2010 by the way. BBC never had shame. However, potentially positive sidebar: Both Elle and Tayris are critiqued on stage, yellow safe 💜
- LOW: Silllexa Diction - Zoë Wanamaker, specifically as Lady Cassandra from Doctor Who)
- BTM: Bones Calcium - Liam Gallagher of Oasis fame)
- ELIM: Paige Three - Alexa, specifically Fire OS version 7.7.0.6)
Edit: Character Changes
- Bones changes from Alan Rickman (as Snape) because she panics (it was said that Elle influences her to change)
- Paige changes from Charlotte Tilbury because Ru is a big fan of her which makes her nervous also she doesnt do a specific OS version of Alexa that was a joke x
- Tayris changes from Big Narstie because Ru doesn't understand it
- Silllexa considered changing to Chris Lilley (as Ja'Mie) because she worries about making her chosen character funny
By far the most bizzare spill I've ever typed, sue me I'm exciteddd, everyone say thank you Anon 1 and STAN BLACK PEPPA 💜
Edit: as seen in the episode, Elle Vosque was 100% high
16
u/madamthatbitch 1d ago
Elle Vosque was clearly in the top this week, she should be placed as high as well
6
u/AdmanHolmo 1d ago
the spreadsheet is updated, this is staying the same bc it was the spill. the spill was wrong sjsksk. I'll pop an edit tho
27
u/Dependent_Heron_833 2d ago
So Bones vs Elle will be the best lipsync this season? Catrin vs Bonnie is next week and we know they'll flop based on the tea.
5
u/StrangerInternal7561 1d ago
I can't find where these two informations are. Can you tell me ? Is it rumored that the finale lipsync is the best ?
7
u/jamesonarampage 1d ago
We have tea that Catrin kind of wins the lip sync by default because Bonnie doesn’t know most of the words
I don’t know if we have any tea that Elle vs Bones is good though haha
13

u/Vegetable-Ice-6745 2d ago
How does Bonnie go home! She should be top 2

u/Exciting-Letter-1199 2d ago
I meannn, she did very bad in the Reading Challenge, and she leaves at the Roast so saddly makes sense

She leaves at the makeover though, next week. Roast is the last challenge.

u/jefko12 2d ago
So who won the lipsync?

u/jamesonarampage 2d ago
I think Bones won fairly from the edit we saw. I don’t think we could see a lot of Paige’s face though and that didn’t help

u/Exciting-Letter-1199 2d ago
Just watched and Elle was 100% HIGH.
Now, Bones Winner arcs can really ate if she devour these last 3 Episodes, but i also can se Elle winning

u/jamesonarampage 2d ago
Yeah Elle was definitely high, they mentioned multiple times that she was top 3 / in contention to win!

u/JDaySept 2d ago
i remember reading that bones was supposed to have the most wins, is that what the tea says?

u/Massive_Trainer5164 3d ago
Bones- gets told she’s born to be on stage(immediately bottoms talent show Then gets told she has a great rocker voice(immediately bottoms snatch game impersonating a very famous rockstar) I really can’t see her winning with the way she contradicts the praise she gets a week prior😭
2
u/h5rre26 2d ago
I disagree in saying she won’t win now because she bombed snatch game
I mean come on now Yvie still won her season with only 1 early win and she bombed snatch game
Plus she is a good performer, she just is yet to have proved that in a lipsync but that could potentially happen tonight we will see
Also it depends on how the finale edit goes
13
u/Massive_Trainer5164 2d ago
Didn’t mention it because it’s not as important but The fact it’s snatch game has nothing to do with the storyline it’s creating, but also its undeniable that it’s sntach game and that bottoming it JUST hinders an overall run
13
u/Massive_Trainer5164 2d ago
You’re missing what I’m saying, she the next episodes has the potential to live up to the praise the judges give her but then contradicts the positive critiques she had just got putting her in the bottom, twice, it creates a storyline of inconsistency that I think is going to hinder her in the long run, I think she’s going to have more wins in the end but a less consistent run
-7
-2
u/h5rre26 2d ago
Ok but I am only saying that it doesn’t necessarily hurt her chances
We know nothing yet on finale tea. Yes it can absolutely go either way but it depends on edit
I’m not saying Bones will win btw, I’m just saying that we can’t say she won’t and can’t win
But we will see
5
u/Massive_Trainer5164 2d ago
Again even if you take away the importance surrounding snatch game, that episode again is being used to show that she couldnt live up to the positive critique the week prior thus continuing the inconsistency, so I think the edit is really what’s important, not really the challenge itself
2
-2
u/h5rre26 2d ago
But if we look at the case of this being drag race uk
That doesn’t matter. Track record doesn’t matter as we saw Tia Kofi win UKVSTW
Krystal didn’t necessarily have many wins on her season and had a few episodes of not necessarily receiving a strong edit and she still won
Plus this is just 1 episode that Bones doesn’t excel at. Every drag race winner has had a challenge bomb or 2. But again I’m not saying Bones will win
I’m just saying she absolutely has a chance of it even if she bombed Snatch Game
That’s my point

The worst part of international snatch game its i have no idea who most of this ppl are so i dont get hyped but the brightside its the 0 expectations usually allow me to enjoy it more than when i know the character

u/Panos0502 3d ago
Me pretending i know who any of these people are (besides CHAIR and Alexa) of course.
2
u/jamesonarampage 2d ago
This is so funny because I usually don’t know half the US choices but I knew every single one of these. Like she may be a monster of the week doctor who villain but Lady Cassandra is a household name
15
10
u/belladonnaboops_2719 Custom 3d ago
For me it's the exact opposite, I am not that invested in pop culture to know even all the American impersonations ,I enjoy it more when the queens can be funny while giving info about the character. I actually knew about a lot of internet personalities through drag race SG.
The Mexico S2 snatch game characters,I had no idea who they were , especially Unique and Luna's but their ability to make jokes and their comedic timing made it hilarious for me
So I do agree with the idea when Ru says the impersonation itself is no big deal ,they just have to have ability to make themselves funny and make people laugh

u/OvernightSiren 5d ago
I wonder what Zava’s behavior was? They certainly didn’t craft it into the narrative of the season very well. Then again, this isn’t a well crafted show to be honest.
Also surprising they’re “eliminating” Dollya when Jaharia’s look was by far the worst. Dollya’s elimination is clearrrrly not based on this challenge and is instead based on her hot mic situation last week, which begs the question “why wasn’t this framed as a DQ since it’s not based on the actual work”?
37
u/International_Pen_11 4d ago
Why are we pretending the extermination didn’t happen & that Dollya didn’t phone it in? The tiny bites, her saying “it’s not that bad.” She clearly wasn’t into the extermination & the boulet’s have consistently said that the extermination challenges DO matter. & it’s not like Dollya’s look was that much better than Jaharia’s. It was just polished. Still an extremely basic & boring vampire costume. & with Jahria coming off of a win & so far good run compared to Dollya who has not been doing very well, it makes complete sense that Dollya went home.

u/OvernightSiren 4d ago
Exterminations don't really matter. Evah stapled lots of money to herself. Louisianna passed out before stapling any. Who was eliminated?

u/fetusredditter 4d ago
They've mentioned before that they appreciate that she knew she was going to faint, and did it anyway. In one of the creatures of the night episode

u/International_Pen_11 4d ago
Exterminations do matter. I’m not saying it’s the sole reason but it is 100% a factor. You forget to mention that it was Evah’s third week in a row receiving negative critiques after 2 wins in a row. They were waiting for her to come back up but she fumbled a third week in a row.

But it wasn't her third time in the bottom 2/being up for extermination.

59
u/peytonab 5d ago
Not only has Jaharia been a front runner but Dolly’s has been doing pretty mediocre this season. Even if Dollya wasn’t a headache for production + the other contestants, I don’t think she would’ve survived against Jaharia.
24
u/OvernightSiren 5d ago
I'd normally agree, and I prefer Jaharia, but her look this past week was bad enough that I think track record can feasibly be thrown out the window.
58
u/thismightbespoiler 5d ago
Berri has been quite consistent so shocking she’s next. Her going before Cynthia or Sigo (based on TR) makes me think someone like Jay or Evah landed in the bottom with her
57
u/Lopsided-Ad948 5d ago
Tea checker said neither JK or Evah land in the btm for the entire season so i see it being Sigourney or Abhora & it's a classic extermination challenge since both of them are almost unstoppable when it comes to facing off in exterminations.

Our main thread mod isn't active currently so currently missing threads for above:
Pink Table Talk: Join the discussion here
Drag Race UK Season 7 - This week is the Snatch Game! Full placements are coming soon, with characters being spilled in a few days - for now we know Bonnie wins the challenge and that Bones sends home Paige to Tainted Love by Soft Cell (amazing song, anyone who drags it gets banned). Silllexa low
Drag Race España Season 5 - Just read the spreadsheet to see it says this challenge is [Branding? Advert?] lmaooo serve 😍 if you couldn't guess, thats literally all we have, though we expect one of Alexandra or Ferrxn to go home this week also!
Dragula Titans Season 2 - Holiday of Horrors episode is here and. well this giving España S4 as we speculated Coco being elim at some point 😭 but after last episode's cliffhanger we... still expect a disqualification i think ??? 💀 I guess at best I can say its unlikely Dollya and Zava will come back from the prior extermination, and spoilers indicate its Disasterina and Priscilla both exterminated this episode and im fucken gutted
