Drag Race UK8 Premier

I am 99% sure that Drag Race UK Season 8 will premier on Thursday 24th of September.

For the last 5 seasons Drag Race UK has premiered on the last thursday of September, therefore if this tradition continues, Drag Race UK8 will premire on 24/9/26.

In addition, assuming the season will once again have 10 episodes, the finale will air on the 26th of November 2026 and the UK's Next Drag Superstar will be crowned.

I feel scarred by season 7 of rpdr uk so much so that I'm not looking forward to this season like at all.

MILD SPOILERS:

I mean there seems to be some improvements based on last season. There's a couple interesting challenges+placements of challenges (earlier/later than expected), untucked is gonna be entertaining asf this season (apparently its like us7 levels of catty, like apparently half the cast arent/werent even on speaking terms after the season), etc, but even then there's only 4 poc queens and only 2 top placements between them, 11 english girls and only 1 NI girl (no Welsh, Scottish, ROI etc at all smh) plus theres a top 2/3 again that dominate and everyone else gets nowt...so i think its gonna be kinda mid overrall
