RPDR UK S2 E10 - The Final!

[monsta]

I can absolutely relate to this, the Scottish accent is just too strange and fascinating.

AWRITE RASPBERRY HEN!

So many of our dialects and colloquialisms derived from you Scandis

 

[GinAg (39)]

Of course Scottish accents are funny. JUST WAIT until Ru hears a PROPER WELSH ACCENT (Tayce is quite mild).

I echo the theory that Lawrence only won due to her accent.

Yes, when Scandis were savage Vikings. Still can’t imagine a delicate flower like you talking like that.

Believe me hun, after a few Kylie wines it JUMPS OUT!

As someone new to Drag Race who has only seen the two UK seasons and loved them, where should I start with the US seasons? From season 1 and just go from there, or are there classic seasons I should jump into first?

Season 3 is where it moves away from being a bit rough around the edges to the juggernaut it is today. Seasons 4-6 are the peak of that. All Stars 2 is the greatest season for me and Season 12 came very close to matching the glory days due to such an iconic cast.

Scottish accents are hot, not funny. @monsta's is

I'm no expert, but it often seemed to me like the Chaney was exaggerating it. That "babeshzh' stuff was so affected

HUN <3

Yeah Lawrence's accent is VERY panto / VERY Michelle McManus' one woman shows. All very exaggerated but lots of fun.

 

[monsta]

It's at points like this that I miss Kala's anthropology lessons on the development of the Scottish spoken word

 

[monsta]

Sidebar - its been days and I still cannot stop thinking about Veronica Green. Truly the Lisa Scott Lee of drag.

Thanks for the recommendations. I'll start with season 4 I think!

 

[RaspberrySwirl]

Watch them all in the right order.

 

[monsta]

Although if you omit Season 2 then you’re losing out on the People’s Princess

NICOLE
PAIGE
BROOKS
FROM
ATLANTA
GEORGIA!

 

[Rowan Tree 🌳]

Start with Season 1! You've watched and enjoyed the UK ones so you know the format and don't need to go in softly.

 

[Rowan Tree 🌳]

Plus S2 and 3 are better than 4 anyway.

 

[Dark Carnival]

Season 2 is ESSENTIAL.

But yeah 4-6 is the peak.

 

[Dark Carnival]

Plus S2 and 3 are better than 4 anyway.

2 to 4 are actually my favourites. But I do admit that that's biased.

Paging @monsta !

Paging @monsta !

SCREAMING!!!!!

 

[monsta]

This has honestly made my LIFE!

 

[GinAg (39)]

I don't understand what's going on.

 

[monsta]

I don't understand what's going on.

A reference to notorious Glasgow drag queen L*dy M*nter

 

[monsta]

Now that Moopy is nice we REALLY can’t go into it!

 

[GinAg (39)]

Now that Moopy is nice we REALLY can’t go into it!

Well that's made me even MORE CURIOUS

 

[COB]

Paging @monsta !

Since Lawrence was... thirteen then? Sounds about right for Sharon

 

[GinAg (39)]

Sharon Needles IS LONG CANCELLED.

 

[GNL]

Why did Sharon Needles get cancelled again? I liked her

 

[Lucille]

She had a toxic relationship with a child.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend?

 

[straightorbroken]

I still don't know what these hideous accusations made about Munter are? That she has talent?

 

[GinAg (39)]

She had a toxic relationship with a child.

It was pretty rotten reading.

Also: racism. Don't remember the evidence.

 

[Penelope]

I know that. I really don't think that this decision was made on the basis of that. Again, I think you're reading far too much into it.

It fits *entirely* with the ethos he repeats time after time about how nobody is a loser on his shows / lifting up the likes of Porkchop and first outs like Dahlia Sin

 

[Penelope]

Sharon is absolutely unstable and unhinged and definitely is not safe around children, the elderly, or those with advanced illnesses, but a part of me will always guiltily love her

 

[Lucille]

She’s strangely impervious, she’s onto her like 20th cancellation by now.

 

[Halli]

Bimini's insta followers going through the ROOF

 

[Treacle]

Watch them all in the right order.

Definitely! If you start any later, you'll probably never be able to go back and appreciate season 1 but it definitely had its highlights. Season 2 is incredible... people have tried to replicate Tyra in the wedding dress episode but it simply can't be done.

 

[dUb]

I think Bimini will completely transcend Drag Race. A queer fashion icon in the making.

 

[KindaCool]

Bimini IS the reincarnation of Kate Moss. British fashion and personality at its best.

 

[Penelope]

Kate Moss IS STILL ALIVE

 

[Phoenix]

I heard Bimini walked on water and cured a leper
