Who left Drag Race UK vs The World last night and when is the final?

At the start of episode five of RuPaul's Drag Race vs The World, there was only one thing on the minds of the Queens. Why did Blu Hydrangea send Pagina Heals home?

Blu, the Northern Irish Queen won the lip sync against cockney comedy queen Baga Chipz. The pair were chosen to be the top two for their performances in Snatch Game, with Blu taking on Mike Myers' characters Austin Powers and Dr Evil.

Baga Chipz transformed into Kathy Bates, as Annie Wilkes from the 1990 thriller, Misery. They both put on the strongest performances of the group, but Blu slayed the lip sync.

She decided to send home Pagina Heals, admitting later it was a strategic decision to eliminate the toughest competition. It was an uncomfortable moment as Pagina broke down, feeling she had disappointed Thailand, her home country.

Although the usual lighthearted ending was overshadowed by the sound of crying, Pagina's fate was sealed as Baga had also chosen Pagina's lipstick. Mo Heart and Michelle Visage admitted they would have made the same cut throat decision.

For this week's episode, the remaining Queens wrote, recorded and performed a hometown glory verse for RuPaul's song, Living my Life in London. Helping them pull it together was extra special guest judge Jade Thirlwall from Little Mix, while experienced performer Mo Heart led the choreography.

Before taking their verses to the runway, the Queens talked about growing up queer in their hometowns, with Blu saying that Northern Ireland is “backwards” on trans issues, and Mo Heart sharing her experience of being forced into conversion therapy.

The Queens put on a strong performance, with Baga being the “Ho from Soho”, while Blu sang about bending gender in Belfast, Jujubee repped Boston, Mo Heart sang for Hollywood and Janey Jacke for Amsterdam. The category on the runway was 'work of art', with almost every Queen deciding to emulate famous artworks from Salvador Dali, Andy Warhol, Van Gough and Picasso.

American Queens dominated the competition this week. The judges loved Mo Heart's verse and her stunning floral runway look and felt that Jujubee had finally performed to her level.

Jujubee took the crown, deciding to send her Sister Janey Jacke home. The pair had grown close over the series, but the Dutch Queen took it in her stride and reassured Juju there were no hard feelings.
