RuPaul's Drag Race UK: The queens bring glam to the Manchester Pride parade

As part of the Manchester Pride parade, the cast of the forthcoming RuPaul's Drag Race UK wowed crowds with their high-fashion drag and looks.

Contestants including The Vivienne, Baga Chipz, Cheryl Hole, Blu Hydrangea, and Manchester's Divina De Campo appeared on their own float to promote the upcoming BBC Three reality show.

The forecast, featuring many innuendos and puns involving the contestants names, shows that Saturday's weather is set to be "stunning" and "you're definitely doing Sum Ting Wong if you don't apply a bit of sunscreen, hunny."

Evans added the weather would be "the perfect conditions if you're going to Divina De Campo it up on the Parade or on Canal Street later on.

"We shouldn't see any rain, not so much great news for your Blu Hydrangea who may need some extra hydration."

The reality show will see legendary drag queen RuPaul, alongside rotating guest judges Graham Norton and Alan Carr, search for the UK's first ever Drag Race Superstar.

A lineup of celebrities including Andrew Garfield, Cheryl, and Lorraine Kelly will also appear over the duration of the show.

RuPaul's Drag Race UK will begin on BBC iPlayer on October 3 at 8pm.
