Lawrence Chaney has fans in stitches with 'pigs in blanket' outfit on Great British Sewing Bee

Scots drag star Lawrence Chaney was back on our screens tonight and of course had us all in stitches of laughter.

The winner of Ru Paul's Drag Race UK appeared on the Celebrity version of the Great British Sewing Bee and as always showcased their creative talents.

As New Year is coming up, part of the final challenge was to create an outfit based on a party food and Lawrence opted to create something based on 'pigs in blankets'.

Lawrence created a slinky cocktail dress with pink 'bacon' draped around the whole dress, topped off with a 'bacon' bow at the neckline.

The judges were pretty impressed and Patrick Grant even said: "Never has a chipolata ever looked so chic! The fit is superb!"

But Twitter was in stitches at Lawrence's effort.

One wrote: "lawrence chaney on sewing bee is a moment and a half, everyone needs to watch."

Another added: "Amazed that Lawrence is braving the Drag Race Bacon Dress Curse #SewingBee."

While one said: "The model in the "pigs-in-blankets" costume trying not to cry with laughter behind her facemask as Esme points out the outfit looks nothing like a pig-in-a-blanket is maybe my favourite moment in a very funny episode #sewingbee."

But it was a heart-bacon moment for Lawrence as Steps singer Claire Richards scooped the trophy for her version of an ice cream sundae.

Lawrence vowed to get back on to the sewing machine in the New Year to perfect their skills and come back even better next year.
