“I’m part of the drag daisy chain. Every nice drag queen is my sister and the rest are second cousins! It was a lot of fun being part of the show!”

Also on hand for her ‘Drag Race’ debut is superstar singer-songwriter Cathy, who will give the queens a songwriting masterclass as part of a forthcoming challenge.

“It was a blast joining the queens in the Werk Room to share some musical wisdom,” says the You Lied To Me hitmaker. 

“I’m a big fan of the show and I love the fashion and sparkle that RuPaul and the queens bring every series!”

Meanwhile, Spice Girls legend Mel B – who has appeared on the US version of the show – will return to the format for her first UK appearance. 

“I love the outfits and the performances,” she beams. “I love it when things go right and even more when things go wrong! 

“But to me, the big moments are when the queens are praised and you can see that they really embrace what Ru says. I’m sooo excited to be a part of it all and see what spice they bring to the runway!”

Also set to take up seats on the judging panel are actress Joanna Lumley, TV presenter Alison Hammond, ‘Game Of Thrones’ and ‘Ted Lasso’ star Hannah Waddingham, and Grammy nominee FKA twigs.

TV chef Lorraine Pascale, musician Olly Alexander and model Leomie Anderson complete the line-up, alongside comedian Aisling Bea who will offer advice to contestants and ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ star Giovanni Pernice, who will choreograph a dance challenge. 

Finally, ‘Strictly’ stars AJ Odudu and Tess Daly will be joining the Snatch Game for its fourth UK edition.

RuPaul will return to front the series alongside judging regulars Michelle Visage, Alan Carr, and Graham Norton. 

Transmission details will be confirmed in due course.
