Drag Race Thailand is back for Season 3 - this version of the franchise is always doing the most.

The mini-challenge

This week's mini-challenge was a quick-drag office look to create some ASMR by eating spicy food.

This was fine but not a lot happened.

Gawdland was declared the winner.

The main challenge

This week was the Rusical.

This is the first time that Drag Race Thailand has tackled a Rusical. The direction they went with was to take inspiration from Kraithong. I'm not sure what that is but I think it's a traditional play from Thailand.

As the winner of the mini-challenge, Gawdland got to assign the roles.

We got to see the final production on the main stage. It was pretty long but everyone gave it their best. Gawdland seemed to be the stand-out performer.

The runway

This week's category was Love is Blind.

Nane had the most impact with her Queen of Hearts look. Siam's look seemed to require the most explanation.

The judging

Frankie and Spicy were safe.

In the top were Nane, Zepee, and Gawdland.

In the bottom were Gigi and Siam.

Gawdland was declared the winner - which made total sense.

Unsurprisingly, the Bottom 2 was Gigi versus Siam.

The lip-sync

The song was We Are Beautiful by Silvy - this week's guest judge.

This is a decent song for a lip-sync battle, although perhaps a little one-level.

Both Gigi and Siam gave it a lot enthusiasm, but it was fairly messy from them both.

Ultimately, Gigi stays and Siam goes home.

Episode 6, done!

The cast

Still in the running

Frankie Wonga: Winning the first episode is a great way to start the season and she's maintaining that momentum. Definitely one to watch.
Gawdland: Obsessed. Possibly my favourite.
Gigi Ferocious: I thought that Gigi might have been our winner but it feels like she's now given us everything we're going to get. There are no more chances left for Gigi.
Nane Sphera: Nane is super-consistent. Pretty much a lock for Top 4?
Spicy Sunshine: Spicy could be the lip-sync assassin of the season but we are three episodes in and she is fast running out of road. The win in Snatch Game has possibly turned things around.
Zepee: Best entrance line - "Pee on me!" I'm liking her feisty attitude and she's delivering the performance required.

Eliminated queens

Siam Phusri: She's based in the US, which made her the outsider in this cast. She did okay but ultimately was undone by the acting challenge. Beaten in the lip-sync by Gigi.
Benze Diva: After a solid start, things got a bit shaky for Benze and the Snatch Game was the end of the road. Beaten in the lip-sync by Gigi.
Shortgun: We never really got to see what Shortgun excels at. It's been a growth experience for her. Beaten in the lip-sync by Benze.
Kara Might: Kara got lost in the mix in the early stages of this season. Beaten in the lip-sync by Spicy.
Srirasha Hotsauce: Never really found her feet in this competition, Srirasha is the Pork Chop of the season - beaten in the lip-sync by Spicy.
