“Saturday Night Live U.K.” will launch its second season on Sky and Now starting Sept. 12, the broadcaster announced, kicking off a run of six new episodes following the show’s debut season earlier this year.
A trailer for the new season has been released, and additional episodes are planned for early 2027 beyond the initial six-episode run. As in the debut season, every episode will pair a new celebrity host with a musical guest, alongside topical sketches, live musical performances and a British spin on “Weekend Update.”
Audience tickets will open through a ballot on Aug. 14.
The six confirmed episodes are set to air on Sept. 12, Sept. 19, Sept. 26, Oct. 10, Oct. 17 and Oct. 24.
All 11 cast members from the inaugural season are returning: Hammed Animashaun, Ayoade Bamgboye, Larry Dean, Celeste Dring, George Fouracres, Ania Magliano, Annabel Marlow, Al Nash, Jack Shep, Emma Sidi and Paddy Young.
