The Premiere of Saturday Night Live UK

Saturday Night Live has made its way across the pond, and the Ten to One is here for it. Fifty years after Lorne Michaels launched the original in Studio 8H, the very first episode of Saturday Night Live UK aired live from Television Centre in London, and Nate, Brad, and Ben share their thoughts.SNL legend Tina Fey stepped in as the inaugural host. The episode introduced us to an entirely new cast of eleven British comedians, with a few of them making quite the first impression.We break down every sketch in order, from the skincare ad that would never make it past NBC censors, to a David Attenborough dream dinner party packed with British icons, to a Hamnet parody featuring a Gen Z Shakespeare with a very distinctive earring. We also cover Weekend Update — where new anchors Ania Magliano and Paddy Young made their debut — including a visit from the only British naval officer currently deployed in Iran: Captain Birdseye. And then the whole episode ended with George Fouracres asking an extremely important question at high speed for 45 seconds. It made very little sense. It was very funny. Don't miss it.Find us at thetentoone.com and join the conversation on social media.
