These 19 Drag Race UK season three memes prove why it should be on all year long

Drag Race UK returned in all its camp, niche, British glory last night – and any people worried that this time round wasn’t going to be able to live up to the bing bang bonging heights of season two were quickly shut right up. The cast is amazing, the looks were iconic and the one-liners are already burnt into our brains forever. It’s a cast of diversity and drag from all different walks of life and representation from all branches of the art form. And, of course, Twitter didn’t disappoint with the usual batch of iconic Drag Race UK memes and reactions for season three.

Here are the most iconic examples that prove exactly why Drag Race UK is the best thing to come out of this cursed island, and how if you’re not reading the Twitter timeline after the episode airs you’re only getting half the story!
