SNL UK Cold Open: It's Prince William & Kate vs. Prince Harry & Meghan
The sketch mocked family tensions and featured Danny Dyer hosting with music from Sasha Keable.
- Host Danny Dyer led the Saturday Night Live UK cold open, which depicted a tense royal family reunion at Sandringham Estate featuring disgraced royal Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. The sketch poked fun at the family, drawing significant attention for its satirical take.
- Attempting to regain favor with King Charles and Queen Camilla, Mountbatten-Windsor engineered the reunion. The disgraced royal resigned in 2019 over his ties to convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, leaving him isolated from the family.
- The reunion escalated as Prince William called Prince Harry "Prince ginger pubes." Simultaneously, Kate Middleton mocked Meghan Markle regarding her former acting career on "Suits."
- Fans on social media hailed Dyer as a "national treasure" and the "best host" after he addressed his reputation for colorful language. Dyer joked that "people don't usually trust me with live TV" following his past public tirades.
- Saturday Night Live UK continues airing on Saturdays at 10pm, with James Norton hosting next week and Cynthia Erivo taking over on October 24.
