A’Whora’s censored joke from RuPaul’s Drag Race UK’s stand-up challenge has been revealed.

*Spoilers for Drag Race UK ahead*

During Thursday (4 March) night’s episode of the BBC Three competition series, the remaining queens were tasked with performing stand-up comedy to the judges.

A’Whora, who won last week’s sewing challenge, was put first on the bill and decided to go for an explicit set of jokes to shock the audience.

“The best advice I ever received growing up was from my nan,” A’Whora said in her set. “You know, people always say, there’s such a huge age gap between the older and the younger generation... But me and my nan found that that gap was what really brought us together.”

She continued: “It was a real deep wholesome connection. We both had–,” with the following words being bleeped out on TV and RuPaul and Michelle Visage laughing in shock.

However, in a clip shared on social media, the uncensored joke was revealed. In it, A’Whora’s punchline is: “We both have gaping a***holes.”

A’Whora was critiqued for her set being too “vulgar” and ended up in the bottom two with Tayce, with Tayce continuing for another week and A’Whora sashaying away.

Tayce, Bimini Bon Boulash, Lawrence Chaney and Ellie Diamond are the remaining contestants.

RuPaul’s Drag Race UK continues Thursday at 7pm on BBC iPlayer.
