The 12 queens of season three of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK have been unveiled, including the show’s first female queen – Victoria Scone.

The 27-year-old from Cardiff is known as the queen of the “AFAB” (assigned woman at birth) and says she has been constantly criticized for not being a “real drag queen”.

Also included are Choriza May, a drag queen from Spain who now lives in Newcastle, and Veronica Green, 35, who is back for a second chance after leaving season two with a positive Covid-19 test.

Newsbeat has spoken to all 12 queens participating in the new series.
