The long-running US sketch show Saturday Night Live (SNL) will launch in the UK next year featuring British comedians and entertainers.
SNL, which launched the careers of A-List stars such as Eddie Murphy, Will Ferrell and Tina Fey, has become a US institution and celebrated its 50th year in February.
The show has featured a host of celebrity guests and political figures, such as US President Donald Trump, when he was running for office.
The UK version will be overseen by US producer Lorne Michaels alongside the US version.
Production will be led by UK team Universal Television Alternative Studio.
SNL began in 1975 and recently made into a film - Saturday Night - featuring Spider-Man star Willem Dafoe.
It's not the first time the show has been taken overseas, with a French version, Le Saturday Night Live, running for one season in 2017.
The UK spinoff will be broadcast on Sky Max and NOW in 2026, with more details of the cast and crew to be announced.
