It's been confirmed that the first episode of Drag Race UK series two will air on Thursday 14th January 2021, with the show set to run for ten weeks.

The legendary RuPaul will of course return to the judges' panel alongside Michelle Visage, Alan Carr and Graham Norton.

Special guest judges will also join the panel every week and, after the likes of Cheryl and Little Mix's Jade Thirlwall appeared on the first series, they have some big shoes to fill. Just two guest judges have been confirmed so far - Dawn French and Gemma Collins, with the GC set to take part in the show's iconic Snatch Game challenge.
