While we won't know until the RuPaul's Drag Race UK final kicks off on March 18th, some viewers have already expressed who they'd like to see take home the trophy.

Bimini Bon Boulash was voted Drag Race UK fans’ favourite to win ahead of season 2 finale, receiving 63 per cent of the votes with Lawrence Chaney in second place.

And recently, Ellie Diamond and Lawrence Chaney revealed Doctor Who’s John Barrowman had been in touch since the show kicked off.

It sounds like a lot could be in store for these queens when the series wraps up, but first here's everything you need to know about this year's queens, as they head into the final.
