Drag SOS bursting onto screens on 25th June

Drag SOS, the UK's latest drag injection (RuPaul who?) is a brand-new six-part makeover series on Channel 4.

Kicking off on 25th June, Drag SOS will see five of Britain's best drag queens travelling around the country to transform the lives of ordinary Brits through the power of drag: with all of the glitter, outrageous make-up and fabulous outfits you can possibly imagine. Cheddar Gorgeous, Anna Phylactic, Liquorice Black, Tete Bang and Lill (aka Family Gorgeous) are on hand to take members of the public on a journey of self-discovery each week, discovering how drag can help them become bigger, bolder versions of themselves. 

After a week immersed in the glittering world of the Family Gorgeous, participants will show off their new-found fierceness with their own drag performance in front of friends, family and a home crowd.

“Whether you’re male, female, straight or gay, old or young, drag is all about finding your most glamorous route to self-confidence," says head of the family Cheddar Gorgeous.

"We all have a past, our own stories and drag is the most fabulous way to celebrate ourselves. People have come to us for all kinds of reasons, from bereavement to poor body image, drag is all about establishing identity and putting it centre stage."
