RuPaul's Drag Race UK Versus The World is to return for a second series on BBC Three, it has been announced.
The show, which helped relaunch BBC Three as a linear channel in 2022, pits former UK contestants against some of the most notorious Drag Race contestants from franchises around the world.
The second run will see the return of judges RuPaul, Michelle Visage, Graham Norton and Alan Carr alongside a different guest judge each week - and for the first time in the history of the UK show, the winner will receive a cash prize.
"It is my honour to present the second sickening instalment of RuPaul's Drag Race UK Vs. The World," said RuPaul.
"When queens of this calibre come together, something truly magical happens. I can't wait to share the international love with audiences in the UK and around the globe!"
BBC youth controller Fiona Campbell added: "We're thrilled to announce the highly anticipated return of Drag Race UK versus The World for a second series on BBC Three!
"Get ready for more fierce competition, dazzling performances, and a celebration of drag excellence from queens around the globe.
"It's going to be an unforgettable journey that pushes the boundaries of creativity and charisma. Tune in for a season that promises to be bigger, bolder, and more fabulous than ever!"
The new series will air on BBC Three and iPlayer in the coming months, with the cast due to be confirmed shortly.
