Who left Drag Race UK vs The World last night and what to expect next week

It was quite literally Drag Race UK versus the World in last night's episode, with the British queens slaying the Snatch Game.

For this fourth episode of this BBC Three digital series, the contestants impersonated their chosen celebrities, leading to a shocking elimination.

The contestants were still reeling from Jimbo leaving, with close friend Baga Chipz vowing to win the competition for him, and suggested that Pagina Heals sent her home as a competitive move.

The iconic snatch game was switched up this season, with the Queens splitting into feuding families. As last week's winner, Pagina Heals got to choose her family, opting for Jujubee and Baga Chipz, to be on Katie Price's team.

Pagina nailed her look as Mariah Carey, but didn't deliver on the comedy for the singing queen. Jujubee also took on a very challenging role of Cher, a Drag Race legend who's been impersonated many times before. Jujubee received some praise from the judges for pulling off a parody of a parody, but could have taken it further.

Baga, known for being the class clown, was the shining star of the team as Kathy Bates for the 90s horror film, Misery. Her jokes landed and the dowdy look worked in her favour.

Over on Michelle Visage's team, Janey Jacke fell flat as controversial beauty Youtuber James Charles without any jokes up her sleeve.

Mo Heart chose to impersonate Billy Porter on Ru's suggestion, and was praised for being present in the character, but again failed to rouse many laughs.

It was Blu who roused the best reaction with her fleshed out Mike Myers. Starting with Austin Powers before switching to Dr Evil, bringing out bits from the films without simply parroting lines from the film.

Blu Hydrangea and Baga Chipz ultimately came out on top, and were given the brutal task of choosing who to send home out of the remaining four, who were all at risk.

Usually, there are two top queens, a few who are safe and a bottom two. This week, Ru did things a little differently. The decision led to the most shocking elimination of the series.

It was all to play for as Janey Jacke, Jujubee, Pagina Heals and Mo Heart all tried to fight for their place. It came down to Janey Jacke and Pangina Heals for their Snatch Game performances, with both Baga and Blu hinting that they wanted to compete against Pagina in the final.

After an energetic performance in the lip sync, Blu was crowned the winner. She pulled out a lipstick with Pagina's name on it, who has been the front runner of the season, causing suitably shocked reactions from Michelle and Ru.

The ending was surreal to say the least, as the usual voiceover was dampened by Pagina's sobbing.

That leaves Blu - who looked shaken by her decision, too - Jujubee, Janey Jacke, Baga Chipz and Mo Heart going into next week.

What to expect from Drag Race UK vs The World next week

For the next challenge, the Queens will be warming up their vocal cords to pen some verses on a Ru Paul track.

We can expect that Blu's choice for the elimination will be dissected in this episode, as the Queen was left visibly shaken by Pagina's reaction.

Graham Norton will be judging this week, alongside Michelle Visage, Ru Paul and an extra special guest.

Who will make magic in the studio and who will fizzle out? Only time will tell.
