Naomi Campbell and Judi Dench to guest judge RuPaul's Drag Race UK?

Naomi Campbell, Dame Judi Dench and Joanna Lumley have reportedly signed up as guest judges for \'RuPaul\'s Drag Race UK\'.

According to an insider, when the drag show returns, fans can expect a different A-Lister to join regular panellists RuPaul and Michelle Visage, with Graham Norton and Alan Carr going on rotation with the likes of the supermodel, movie legend and the former \'Ab Fab\' star.

The source told The Daily Star on Sunday newspaper: "This is a dream line-up. The producers can\'t believe their luck.

"They are going to have an A-list name on the show pretty much every week."

Graham and Alan featured in the first season of the British version of the hit US show, which was a huge success.

Work had begun on new episodes of the BBC3 programme - which was won by The Vivienne last year - but it was deemed "far too risky" to carry on with filming during the coronavirus pandemic and it is now on hold indefinitely.
