Tribute film about The Vivienne to air this summer, BBC says

A coroner ruled that the performer's death was by misadventure when Williams suffered cardiorespiratory arrest after taking ketamine. The Vivienne attending the British Soap Awards 2023 (Danny Lawson/PA) The superstar rose to fame after winning the first series of RuPaul's Drag Race UK in 2019 and came third in the 2023 series of Dancing On Ice. Williams, who was born in Wales, adopted the drag name as they were known for wearing Vivienne Westwood clothing. Through a blend of interviews, family photos, home videos and behind-the-scenes Drag Race footage, the film will celebrate The Vivienne's life charting their journey from North Wales and Liverpool through to the global stage. The film will also include interviews with Williams' family, early mentors and Drag Race friends including Baga Chipz, Michael Marouli and Danny Beard. The Vivienne attending the National Lottery's Big Eurovision Welcome Party in Liverpool in 2023 (Peter Byrne/PA) Tia Kofi will also feature in the film along with Cheryl Hole, Raja, Monet X Change, and Trinity The Tuck, as they pay tribute to the drag star. The film also touches on the star's self-confessed struggle with ketamine addiction and the campaigning done by The Vivienne's sister, Chanel Williams, who argues for better awareness around the dangers of the drug. Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato, co-founders of World of Wonder, who produced the film, said: 'We wanted to celebrate The Vivienne and not just mourn her. 'Although she left us far too soon her life was defined by her breathtaking talent, scene-stealing charisma, and infinite kindness. 'We hope her vision and her voice shine through in Dear Viv and that it inspires everyone who watches it. 'Although producing it was bittersweet, we are so grateful to friends and family for trusting us to tell The Vivienne's story. Above all, we hope Viv loves the film as much as we loved her.' Nasfim Haque, head of content for BBC Three: 'Dear Viv is a fitting tribute to The Vivienne who truly was a trailblazer in the world of drag. She showcased her artistry and talent brilliantly and paved the way for many to follow in her footsteps.' The hour-long feature film will be available to watch on BBC Three and iPlayer on August 28.

But the 51-year-old is now hoping for some happier times with his two children after scooping the massive prize. Paul filmed the moment he broke the news to his son in a beautiful video. As he made his big reveal, the two were seen laughing hysterically and jumping around the kitchen for joy Paul recalled: 'I wanted to tell the kids in person so when my son got home I set up my phone to record it." And after an agonising wait for them to get home from school, he got his dream moment. Paul said: "How many millionaires do you know?" And his bewildered son replied "zero". It was then Paul said "Well you do now" as he pulled his son into a warm embrace. Paul recalled: "I added 'I swear on my life'! I do like to joke but when I say those words, my kids know to take it seriously! "Their reactions were hilarious and heart-warming. We all feel ridiculously excited and relieved in equal measure. It just doesn't seem real!' Paul has always prioritised his two children and their needs above everything and now plans some special time together to create new memories, starting with a family holiday to Greece. The dad explained: 'Life hasn't always been easy, but the kids mean the world to me, and they always come first. "We have never been away abroad together, and I would love to take them both to Greece. But first we need to get our passports!" As well as a dream holiday together, Paul wants to buy his daughter a second-hand car, a Fiat 500, so she can learn to drive. He also hopes to help them kickstart their careers as they both near the end of full-time education. Paul said: 'I am so proud of what the kids have achieved already in life. They both have big ideas about what they want to do when they leave school, and I cannot wait to help them in their chosen careers. 'It's the important stuff like helping them to learn to drive and getting them a car and insurance so they can get to college and then work. "My daughter has a driving test later this year and I would love to get her a second-hand Fiat 500 for her to practice in.' Paul confesses that he didn't realise he had bagged the life-changing win for a whole week. He checked his National Lottery account as normal after the EuroMillions draw on July 4 to find he had won £5 plus a free Lucky Dip ticket. But it wasn't until a week later that he got an unexpected email from The National Lottery urging him to check his account again and to get in touch urgently. Paul was suspicious and didn't want to get ahead of himself; 'It didn't look like the normal email I get. "I thought this must be a scam. I read the email again and then Googled the National Lottery Line where I saw the telephone numbers matched. "It was then that I allowed myself to get much more excited!'
