I don't get SNL full stop, it is not funny but then I don't get American comedy either. So it's not a surprise that I didn't think #SNLUK was funny. It didn't even raise a smile with me.

I thought the whole thing was forced, why they had an American open the first UK show was a strange decision as well . I agree with you the whole thing was embarrassing.

I can't imagine it will do that well in the UK - America humour doesn't travel.

Maidin mhaith...a quick hello and thought before I toddle off to do some work.

Can we all now agree that Trump is mad and has absolutely no clue how to end this war with Iran. He desperately needs someone to give him a way out because US petrol prices are starting to affect his approval ratings.

I unfortunately watched the first 15 mins of #SNLUK. It wasn't funny, the opening attacking Starmer was pitiful. There is a sketch were you can mock him for Trump but that wasn't it!

#SNLUK S01E01... wasn't that bad. Might watch a few more when they come out.

in case you missed it, the very funny cold open for #SNLUK 😂 💙 Great mocking of Kiers Starmer. Hosted by Tina Fey
