SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE UK: THIS WEEK'S PRESENTER AND GUESTS REVEALED, SATURDAY 19th SEPTEMBER 2026
Broadcast live each week, the UK version brings the high-wire, anything-can-happen energy that makes SNL a cultural force, now reimagined through a distinctly British lens. A new guest host will take the helm each week, putting their distinctive stamp on the SNL formula alongside a chart-topping musical guest.
Written, rehearsed and performed in the week of each show, every episode is staged in front of a live studio audience and features an opening monologue, topical sketches, live music, and a UK take on SNL’s iconic news satire, Weekend Update.
Returning cast members include Hammed Animashaun, Ayoade Bamgboye, Larry Dean, Celeste Dring, George Fouracres, Ania Magliano, Annabel Marlow, Al Nash, Jack Shep, Emma Sidi and Paddy Young, joined this series by new cast member Freddie Meredith.
On this week's show, quadruple-BAFTA-winning comedy writer and actor Jamie Demetriou (Stath Lets Flats, The Moment) will be joined by a defining force in British rock, Royal Blood as musical guest.
Saturday Night Live UK airs Saturdays at 10pm on Sky One.
