After 10 weeks of toe-to-toe lip-syncs, fierce runways and shady remarks, the time has come for one queen to be named the UK's next Drag Race superstar.
For the final time on the BBC, 12 contestants were whittled down to just one after the broadcaster announced it was axing RuPaul's Drag Race UK due to budget cuts.
On Thursday night, RuPaul crowned Flesh as the series eight winner.
The London queen snatched the title from Mocha, Naya Thorn and Alik who also made it to the final episode.
Flesh was awarded the £25,000 cash prize after impressing the judges in the final maxi challenge, which saw the last four queens perform a megamix of previous girl group anthems from past series.
The 26-year-old was crowned by last year's winner, Bones, who is also her best friend and drag sister, with the duo performing together as Heavenly Bodies.
"To be here with Bones is just the perfect moment, this is everything I have ever dreamed of and more," Flesh said as she won.
