RuPaul's Drag Race is one of the most successful shows on the BBC with 51 million streams for the series by the time season four aired. This may come as a shock to those uninitiated into the world of drag, but for fans this is just the beginning.
Season four of Drag Race UK is iconic for a number of reasons, including the first time an openly transgender queen had starred on the British show.
Another, possibly overlooked, milestone was an episode in which head judge and host RuPaul Charles was not present as head judge. On the seventh episode of that season, RuPaul was replaced by longstanding judge and best friend Michelle Visage.
