Sky announces that “Saturday Night Live UK” will return for a second season on September 12. The broadcaster says the season initially consists of six episodes, with a short run before the show pauses.
Variety and Deadline add that Sky and Now will air the new season starting that date. They also report that further episodes are planned for early 2027 after the initial six-episode stretch. The Independent similarly states that Sky has confirmed the show’s return for an additional six episodes, aligning with the premiere timing reported by other outlets.
Outlet coverage also notes the context of the UK series’ launch earlier this year. NME points to the debut in March and says it receives positive reviews, positioning the second season as a continuation following the first run. While the outlets agree on the key dates and episode count, their emphasis varies between schedules and general reception.
