I assume I'm not the only person on here who didn't get that the first pre-recorded sketch was based on this:



I kinda liked it without this knowledge, but now it makes a LOT MORE SENSE and is funnier

Would love to watch it again with ease, but like most of the UK show it's not on socials :DAF:

I got that reference instantly. But don’t think it’s famous enough for everyone to get it.
 
I've read Nicola Coughlan and Aimee Lou Wood lined up as next two hosts on twitter this morning, but not from any verified source.
 
apparently:

25th April - Nicola Coughlan with Foo Fighters
2nd May - Aimee Lou Wood with MEEK

wtf is a MEEK? great hosting choices though.

This song that was the new viral hot sensation for about a week then disappeared. I forgot all about it!

 
Excellent host choices. Coughlan is a blast. I'm guessing Wood is, she looks like she's funny (not derogatory).
 
Why?

I don't think that's an official account. all tweets are on @skytv
 
Okay I can admit when I’m wrong, and this was very good + funny



I just came here to say I watched this one and the Mastermind one and have suddenly realised that this is surprisingly good. :o
 
I want another 45 Seconds With Fouracres, if only to get the song from the last one out of my damn head.

ah-WHAT type of Irish is your Grand-d-aa-a-d?
 
Yeah, I noticed this - lots more Weekend Update clips which is daft, get them up while it's current! Al Nash's Captain Birdseye had me chuckling.
 

What's interesting about this is it suggests that Young and Magliano were specifically cast for Weekend Update and are also part of the writing team for it. I think that's similar to the US edition where the Weekend Update hosts only appear elsewhere on occasion.
 


Is there some context for this? A meme, a previous viral Nicola Coughlan Foo Fighters moment? Because I don’t understand it at all and it’s making me confused and angry.
 
LOVED IT as per. Coughlan perhaps the strongest host yet.

What a Life! magazine and QVC made me laugh the most. Love seeing them get gold from the odd british institutions. Weekend Update was also mega, although increasingly I'm getting second hand nerves seeing if Ania will get her lines out without a flub.

So far Emma Sidi is the show's MVP for me, closely followed by Fouracres
 
I am obsessed with curly hair gay one seemingly never getting more than a line per sketch. They even had him run through Weekend Update.
Larry Dean? He's a good stand-up but he does seem suspiciously underused. That behind the scenes video did show him seeming a bit down about a sketch being cut.
 
I knew of Larry Dean before. He's pretty funny, so I'm happy he's got this gig, but he's being woefully outshone from the clips I've seen.

Emma Sidi and her fingers killed me.
 
The trouble with a scripted show is that it's hard to know who is naturally funny and who is a good actor. Next Taskmaster contestant - I'd put money on Annabel and Hammed.
 
Ayoade Bamgboye seems underused. I can’t remember anything she’s done other than that radio station sketch.
