“Saturday Night Live U.K.” opened with another Keir Starmer sketch for its third episode, with the British Prime Minister calling upon the services of the country’s biggest celebrities – soccer star Harry Kane, actor Olivia Colman and cartoon character Peppa Pig – to cheer up the nation amid fears of war and a cost of living crisis. In an effort to lighten the mood, Starmer invites England soccer player Harry Kane (played by Al Nash) to the podium, asking if he can give the country one of his “rousing team talks.” Kane is followed by “Paddington” star Colman (Emma Sidi), clutching an Oscar, who is introduced as “a Briton with a smile that could light up a room, which could be useful when the power runs out.” Starmer then introduces the final speaker, whom he says “combines two of my greatest interests, outstanding British television and pork,” at which point Annabel Marlow joins the trio sporting a fake snout and pair of pig ears on her head.
