“Saturday Night Live U.K.” has revealed its upcoming hosts.
“Bridgerton” actress Nicola Coughlan and “White Lotus” star Aimee Lou Wood are set to host Episodes 5 and 6. Coughlan’s episode, airing on April 25, will feature Foo Fighters as the musical guest, while Wood will host on May 2, accompanied by a performance from British singer Meek.
The most recent installment of the sketch show was hosted by British comedian Jack Whitehall, with R&B artist Jorja Smith providing musical entertainment. Previous episodes featured hosts like Riz Ahmed with Kasabian, Jamie Dornan with Wolf Alice, and Tina Fey with Wet Leg.
Following a brief one-week hiatus, “SNL U.K.” will resume with four additional weekly episodes starting on April 25, completing a season of eight shows. Initially, the series attracted a strong audience of 226,000 viewers on Sky at the 10 p.m. slot, but by the third episode, hosted by Ahmed, viewership had declined to 130,950.
The show features a regular cast including Hammed Animashaun, Ayoade Bamgboye, Larry Dean, Celeste Dring, George Fouracres, Ania Magliano, Annabel Marlow, Al Nash, Jack Shep, Emma Sidi, and Paddy Young.
