Hannah Waddingham and Ncuti Gatwa to host SNL UK

Musical guests also named

Hannah Waddingham and Ncuti Gatwa will host the next two episodes of Saturday Night Live UK, it has been announced.

On May 9, the Ted Lasso star will be joined by singer-songwriter Myles Smith as the musical guest.

And on May 16, the former Doctor Who will be joined by indie pop star Holly Humberstone.

This Saturday’s episode will be hosted by Aimee Lou Wood – who is doing duties despite having had a beef with the American original over its portrayal of her, focusing on her teeth.

Saturday Night Live UK airs on Sky live from London at 10pm every Saturday night, running for 75 minutes.

Tina Fey, Jamie Dornan, Riz Ahmed, Jack Whitehall and Nicola Caughlan have all taken on hosting duties for the series so far.
