Newcastle drag queens win dream holiday on Gino's Win Your Wish List and a year's supply of pasties

When you think of money can't prizes you'd love to win a dream holiday would be up there but you probably wouldn't say a year's supply of pasties would you?

Well that's exactly what a group of Newcastle drag queens took home when they competed on hit Channel 5 show Gino's Win Your Wish List on Sunday night.

As well as earning themselves a trip to New York and Las Vegas after a nailbiting final round, Mutha Tucka, Gladys Duffy, Danni Delonco, Miss Dixie and Miss Lucy, also bagged themselves pasties all year round.

The premise of the series, which originally started life as segment on the National Lottery, is that teams draw up a list of their dream prizes before they start playing.

Other prizes on the list which they also managed to win included new stage outfits and wigs for each of them and a VIP night at Kinky Boots the Musical at Sunderland Empire.

But the one self-confessed Greggs superfan Danni was most bothered about was the pasties. If you didn't already know, Danni made the headlines in 2017 when he got a Greggs steak bake tattooed onto his leg!

Over the course of the show, the Geordie team, who work in well know Newcastle bars The Yard, The Bank, Eazy Street and #Central, had to answer questions on everything from reality TV to the natural world, as well as taking part in a number of physical challenges.

And while they had to keep hush hush about how they got on, they were able to watch the show and celebrate with friends as they hosted a viewing party at The Yard on Sunday night.
