“Krystal has used her short time on this planet to put that laser focus on drag. Kitty has put in the hard yards in the nightclubs and she knows how to do that. Ella has put 10,000 hours on stage, doing shows.”

The prize for the winner was a crown and sceptre, plus an all expenses paid trip to Hollywood to create and star in their own digital series with the producers of RuPaul’s Drag Race.

Alongside RuPaul the judging panel for the final was made up of Michelle Visage, Alan Carr and Graham Norton.

The final also welcomed back the rest of this year’s Queens: Victoria Scone, Veronica Green, Vanity Milan, Scarlett Harlett, River Medway, Elektra Fence, Charity Kase, Choriza May and Anubis.
