Enjoy.
Baga Chipz, 29, London
"My style is more cabaret, old school, sequin frocks, Shirley Bassey, Danny La Rue, Lily Savage kind of drag."
Cheryl Hole, 25, Essex
"I think my degree in dance will give me an edge because there are several challenges that are thrown at you where you have to use your body."
Vinegar Strokes, 35, London
"Drag is the new black."
Crystal, 34, London
"I do aerial circus, I can crack a whip, put cigarettes out on my tongue - it's a freak show."
Gothy Kendoll, 21, Leicester
"I first did drag on New Year's Eve 2016 and it was a mess. I was in a leotard with no wig on but I was living my life, having the best night ever."
Divina De Campo, 35, West Yorkshire
