U.S. President Donald Trumpโs new hairstyle was heavily mocked in โSaturday Night Live U.K.โsโ Weekend Update segment.
โThis week, President Trump stepped off Air Force One sporting a different hair color,โ quipped co-anchor Ania Magliano. โHe appears to be trialling a new shade of brown. Or, heโs shat his head.โ
โPeople are questioning, does the carpet still match the drapes?โ added Paddy Young. โI wouldnโt know, thatโs 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 Itโs unclear whether this moment was a joke, or whether the legal department actually did intervene.
Elsewhere, Prince Georgeโs first day at the prestigious Eton College was imbued with some dark humor. โHow 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 โoooโs 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. โOn Saturday, members of Tommoโs group Patriot Platform yelled obscenities, threw stones, spat and then said goodbye to their families and headed to the protest,โ Magliano joked.
โWho is this Danny Tommo?โ responded Young. โBefore 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 โSNL U.K.โ Season 2 was hosted by Jeff Goldblum.
