January is our favourite time to stay in, watch Netflix and recover from the Christmas craziness - which is why we're very excited that RuPaul's new show, AJ and the Queen has just hit Netflix.
In time for a weekend binge watch, the ten-part series will see our favourite drag queen in his first ever leading acting role as he transforms into Ruby Red.

It's created by Ru himself as well as Sex and the City mastermind, Michael Patrick King - so let's face it, we already know we're in *very* good hands.
The series focuses on drag queen Ruby (real name Robert), who is about to open her own bar/club after saving up $100,000. But devastatingly, Ruby's money is stolen by her ex-boyfriend, Arrow (Josh Seggara).
After coming to terms with losing her life savings, Ruby decided to embark on a tour of America to earn back the lost earnings, but on the way she discovers 11-year-old AJ (Izzy G) has been hiding away in her camper van.
They quickly form a close family bond and recently orphaned AJ becomes Ruby Red's sidekick.
The heartwarming series focuses on friendship, family, love and loss, with Ruby and AJ helping each other navigate their challenging pasts.
As well as RuPaul, a whopping 22 Drag Race stars will also feature in the series.
These include: Valentina, Mayhem Miller, Bianca Del Rio, Eureka O'Hara, Victoria 'Porkchop' Parker, Alexis Mateo, Manila Luzon, Vanessa 'Miss Vanjie' Mateo, Jinx Monsoon, Katya, Jaymes Mansfield, Chad Michaels, Mariah Balenciaga, Kennedy Davenport, Jade Jolie, Ongina, Latrice Royale, Monique Heart, Ginger Minj, Trinity The Tuck, Jujubee and Pandora Box.
There'll also be a musical performance by RuPaul in EVERY episode.
If this doesn't satisfy your RuPaul obsession enough, you'll be pleased to hear you can book to visit RuPaul's Drag Race festival, which is coming to the UK on the 18th and 19th January.
RuPaul's DragCon is a festival of art, drag and pop culture and will feature the entire cast of RuPaul's Drag Race UK, including RuPaul and Michelle Visage.
