@pinknews: The BBC has confirmed RuPaul’s Drag Race UK will leave the broadcaster after 11 series and move to WOW Presents Plus, citing “significant financial pressures” and required savings. A BBC spokesperson said: “We can therefore confirm together with World of Wonder, that RuPaul’s Drag Race UK will be leaving the BBC and moving to WOW Presents Plus.” They added: “As the BBC continues to navigate significant financial pressures and deliver the savings required of us, we have had to make some very difficult choices, none of which have been taken lightly.” The spokesperson also said: “The BBC is incredibly proud of all eleven series of this groundbreaking show and we would like to thank RuPaul, World of Wonder and everyone involved, both on and off screen.” The BBC said the programme is not disappearing from its platforms immediately, adding: “We are certain that viewers will enjoy the eighth series, which is currently airing on BBC iPlayer and BBC Three.” #rupaulsdragrace

bizzare to put it this way when it’s actually just moving to wow presents, it might be a good thing after all cause the queens can actually be rewarded with cash prizes

Good, now put every single series on WP+ so that we don't need 14 subscriptions to catch everything.
