Jamie Dornan, the Northern Irish actor known for roles in “The Tourist” and “Belfast,” hosted this weekend’s edition of SNL UK (Saturday Night Live UK), bringing a touch of Irish talent to the British adaptation of the popular American sketch show.

The broadcast featured Dornan in various comedic roles across the evening's sketches. While specific details of the sketches haven't been widely released beyond initial reports, the hosting gig marks further Irish representation on the UK-based program. SNL UK continues to adapt the format of its American counterpart, offering a platform for British and Irish comedians and actors to showcase their talents.

SNL UK, produced by Zeppotron, has been running since 2014, providing a distinctly British take on the classic late-night sketch comedy format. The show often features topical satire and parodies of current events, alongside recurring characters and original sketches. Dornan’s appearance follows a history of celebrity hosts, solidifying SNL UK’s place in the British television landscape. The show's continued success mirrors the enduring popularity of the original American series.
