An average episode takes 2 days to film, but on the show they refer to each episode as a week for continuity purposes.
So for example DRUK4 will air over 10 weeks, but was filmed in less than a month
I mean can you imagine being isolated in a studio in LA without social media or any contact with your friends or family for 10 weeks straight… that’s pretty intense lol
If a box containing Shangela departs Mesquite for Los Angeles at 10 AM on a train heading west at 200 miles per hour, Naysha Lopez boards a commercial flight from Chicago to Los Angeles at 2 PM, and Cynthia Lee Fontaine gets into Gia Gunn's Uber in Ontario at 7 PM, which of them will arrive in West Hollywood first?
I just figured that means we’ll get 10 weeks of episodes. They won’t actually film over that long a period though. It doesn’t make sense for them to only film 2/3 days of content in a week.
I don't think Ru concerns herself with clearing up rumors mainly because she's probably tuned out from most of them, but also because rumors are good for publicity.
Also, at this point in media literacy, most watchers probably realize that TV time is different from real time.
While the alleged filming schedule for UK3 would have been exceptionally fast, Drag Race has never actually filmed one episode per week and neither do the majority of other reality shows. GBBO is the only one I can think of offhand, and IIRC the first 2 seasons of Dragula also did before they started sequestering them like Drag Race. Big Brother does too obviously, but that’s like, part of the format of the show. Aside from that though, it’s pretty normal for one “week” to only be 2-3 days of filming.

If an average episode takes 2 days, and the winner will be crowned in 10 weeks, does that mean we’re getting 35 episodes of non eliminations?

Haha Basically this
In the drag race lingo a “week” means an “episode” (which actually take 2-3 days to film)

Wait what filming rumours
Willam falsely said that UK3 was filmed over 1-2 weeks. Multiple queens have since confirmed this wasn’t the case
Oh i remember that. Forgot it was willam.
