Becoming Peggy Lee: 'I picture myself as a dinner lady'

Lee Sanderson reveals how he transforms himself into a drag queen, using Copydex to apply false eyelashes, and employs the special 'tuck' known to all drag queens to hide his manhood. The fantasy for Peggy Lee is that she is a dinner lady or worker in a transport cafe, but come Saturday night, gets glammed up and goes out on the town. 'People like that. They connect with Peggy'.

First broadcast as part of 'Drags to Riches', Radio 4, 9 May 2015.
