The SNL UK cast probably dreamed of their first ever sketch being spoken about far and wide, but a share from the US president was likely the last thing they were expecting.
In the first ever cold open above, George Fouracres plays an extra nervous UK prime minister Keir Starmer, waiting with deputy prime minister David Lammy for a phone call from Donald Trump.
"Oh, golly," says Starmer/Fouracres in the sketch as the phone rings. "What if Donald shouts at me?"
Starmer is presented as both cowardly and obsessed with Trump in the sketch, which may have been what prompted the president to post the video on Truth Social on Sunday.
