The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert

Duration: 1 hour, 39 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC One CambridgeshireLatest broadcast: on BBC Three HD

Available for 5 months

Resplendent in flamboyant ball gowns, looking down over the vast red Australian desert, three showgirls, Tick (Hugo Weaving), Adam (Guy Pearce) and Bernadette (Terence Stamp), are offered a four-week cabaret engagement in Alice Springs. The challenge is simply getting there intact, along with their battered, pink tour bus, Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. It's not easy being a drag queen in the outback.

They came, they conquered, they looked fabulous! Show less
