SNL UK: Sir Keir Starmer inspires the nation

With the aid of Olivia Colman, Harry Kane and Peppa Pig

Keir Starmer has called on some British icons to try to inspire the nation – because he can’t.

At least that was the premise of the Saturday Night Live UK  opening sketch last night. 

George Fouracres reprised his impersonation of the Prime Minister with Emma Sidi playing Olivia Colman, Annabel Marlow as Peppa Pig and Al Nash as Harry Kane. 

Riz Ahmed hosted last night’s show.
