It was a tough week on RuPaul\u2019s Drag Race UK<\/a>, with Mama Ru revealing that there\u2019d be no winner of this week\u2019s challenge.<\/p>\n

Every week, a queen wins the main challenge and is awarded a RuPeter badge, however, Ru was so \u201cdisappointed\u201d in the Drag Race UK season three contestants<\/a>, after they failed to provide any \u201coriginality\u201d with their Draglexa commercials. And as a result, the judge decided that every single queen would be \u201cat risk\u201d of going home.<\/p>\n

Speaking to the girls, Ru said: \u201cLadies, brace yourselves because Drag Race is about to get real. These commercials this week weren\u2019t cohesive. Everyone was shouting and there was originality there. They were all what we\u2019ve seen before. So, I\u2019m disappointed. I\u2019m really, really disappointed. Y\u2019all are playing it safe! That\u2019s not how you become the UK\u2019s next Drag Superstar.<\/p>\n

The judge continued: \u201cDuring our conversations in the Werk Room yesterday, I didn\u2019t spend time going through your story boards, so first and foremost, I blame myself. That said, this week there will be no winners. No queen is safe and in the end two of you will be lip syncing for your lives.\u201d<\/p>

This is the first time in the show\u2019s history that there has been no winner of the main challenge and all contestants have been at risk of being eliminated as a result.<\/p>\n

In the past, Ru has decided not to choose a specific winner, but this has only really happened during the penultimate episode, with the judge then sending all participants through to the final instead.<\/p>\n

With the queens already failing to impress the judges, it seems like they might have some major brushing up to do before the next episode \u2013 that\u2019s if they want to keep their spot in the race.<\/p>\n

New episodes of RuPaul\u2019s Drag Race UK season three are available to stream on BBC iPlayer on Thursdays. Both seasons of RuPaul\u2019s Drag Race UK are available to stream on BBC iPlayer. <\/strong>If you\u2019re looking for more to watch check out our\u00a0TV Guide<\/a>\u00a0or visit our\u00a0Entertainment<\/a> guide for more news and features.<\/span><\/strong><\/section><\/section><\/body><\/html>\n
