‘SNL U.K.’ Weekend Update Takes Aim at Trump’s New Hair


U.S. President Donald Trumpโ€™s new hairstyle was heavily mocked in โ€œSaturday Night Live U.K.โ€™sโ€ Weekend Update segment.

โ€œThis week, President Trump stepped off Air Force One sporting a different hair color,โ€ quipped co-anchor Ania Magliano. โ€œHe appears to be trialling a new shade of brown. Or, heโ€™s shat his head.โ€

โ€œPeople are questioning, does the carpet still match the drapes?โ€ added Paddy Young. โ€œI wouldnโ€™t know, thatโ€™s between the president and the punchline that just a second ago was taken from me by our legal team. Thank you, legal team, it was almost funny.โ€ ย Itโ€™s unclear whether this moment was a joke, or whether the legal department actually did intervene.

Elsewhere, Prince Georgeโ€™s first day at the prestigious Eton College was imbued with some dark humor. โ€œHow will he survive being stuck in a place famous for producing sexual abusers? By leaving it and going to Eton College,โ€ Magliano said to โ€œoooโ€s from the audience.

Recent anti-migrant protests taking place in the U.K. were also under the microscope, including that of far-right activist Danny Tommo. โ€œOn Saturday, members of Tommoโ€™s group Patriot Platform yelled obscenities, threw stones, spat and then said goodbye to their families and headed to the protest,โ€ Magliano joked.

โ€œWho is this Danny Tommo?โ€ responded Young. โ€œBefore launching Patriot Platform he is reported to have tried his luck as both a bricklayer and a web designer. However, neither worked out as he had the physique of a web designer and a mind of a brick.โ€

The first episode of โ€œSNL U.K.โ€ Season 2 was hosted by Jeff Goldblum.
