SNL UK Explained (Patreon bonus extract)

SNL UK Explained (Patreon bonus extract)

We’ve just released a Patreon bonus episode on the launch of SNL UK and this is a short extract from the start of that conversation.

In this opening section, we go back to 1975 and the origins of Saturday Night Live, looking at how the show actually evolved (rather than being designed), and why it’s proved so hard to replicate, especially in the UK.

If you want the full episode including our breakdown of the first SNL UK show you can find it here:
