The Riggory of Drag Race UK 6

The sixth season of RuPaul's Drag Race UK was one of the standout seasons of Drag Race of 2024. Almost universally beloved, it's become a return to form for the franchise that had fallen so far in previous years. An amazing cast, fun challenges, stellar performances, and breathtaking runways, it has everything you need for a good season of Drag Race.

Today we're breaking down episode by episode the season and looking at what is fair and what is rigged. What do you think is the most rigged moment of the season?

We all know that riggory of Global All Stars is in your basement…….

I’m so early I managed to get a word in before Dita

[malcolmcampbell]

I feel like Kyran winning, after playing male characters in every character challenge, proves that the show is ready for drag Kings lol

[judithsusansheindlin]

Something you didn’t mention which I think is really important; it’s the first UK season where all nations were represented! Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland not just England!! Especially having North and South Wales representation this was undeniably the most diverse casting!!

Lill is everything to me. She is the queer art Megami said we should be protecting

[maximeminassian]

If I had a nickel every time Ru crowned a 3 wins cooky weirdo over a 4 wins old fashioned singing diva this year, I would have two nickels, which isn’t much but it’s weird it’s happened twice 🤔

so early La Voix hasn't even started doing drag yet

[starstrke]

After being an avid drag race fan but not being able to watch as they air because of not being out at home, this was the first I was able to watch every episode without spoilers and it was so special to me. These girls will always have a place in my heart

[jessicagleave]

Ok so we NEED a uk all stars so bad, imagine a season with awhora, Bimini, Lil, Michael Maroulli, charity kase, choriza may, river Medway etc

"I can't even think of the last time that there was a season without a ball" UK 3 is actually the only UK season with a ball

[emilianojaramillorodriguez]

This season was fantastic, the ending was a little underwhelming, yet every single episode was fantastic, every single one of the top 5 were amazing, Chanel was a pretty nice villain, and even the mid-outs like Kiki Snatch and Actavia had so much showm of them.

Truly a season to remember

I have loved all of the members of Cheddar Gorgeous' family, with Cheddar themselves being my favorite. I was devastated by Lill's elimination, but, that queen deserves her own show where the camera just follows her around as she just... Lills about.

[sweetiedahling]

I was so hoping for a double crowning, but I get why they went with Kyran. Fingers crossed we'll see La Voix on the real Graham Norton red couch though!

[eddos]

Seasons 6 seem to be a lucky number, US6, AS6 and now UK6 are all iconique!

[LightCosmos]

I really hope the franchise going into 2025 stops with the trend "building up 2 possible winners, one gets more momentum going into the finale with tr/storyline/fan reception, to then crown the other, still decently deserving, but arguably 2nd choice" for more shock value or more catering to the younger audiance, leaving a sour taste on the season for most fans.

I loved this season, but my biggest wish for Uk next season is that there are no clear front runners, no Baga/Vivienne/Divina, no Lawrence and Bimini, no Ella, no Danny and Cheddar, no Ginger and no La Voix and Kyran.
I feel like the winners are getting too predictable, we all knew La Voix and Kyran were going to be the top 2 by like episode 3, its making the seasons feel boring to me, when i know they aren't actually boring. Krystal was the last shock winner on UK.
the casts need to either all be on a similar level, or they should spread wins out more. this season felt like Danny and Cheddar part 2, im getting bored of it. anyone else?

[euvicgo]

I read once somewhere that the reason that the songs of the girl group challenge don't feel so iconic anymore is because the queens aren't allowed to sing the chorus and instead just lip sync to some generic female vocals (and the chorus is a important part of why "break up, bye bye" and "uk hun" are so iconic)

[jeannetterw]

Can we also take a moment to applaud how tight La Voix's Dad's arms are. Im 42 and I would be airborne if I put my arms up like that.

[ejirokirishima]

The only thing I have a problem with is how kind of predictable uk as a whole is. You have a frontrunner who wins early on a lot then you have 1 or 2 people who win almost everything in the later half and then the early frontrunner wins (even though the later on had the better track record most of the time)

[fynnhmr]

The UK seasons actually never have a „ball“ the closest we got was the fugly peagant in season 3 but it wasnt a real Ball with designing something.
