- Aimee Lou Wood, star of Sex Education, is hosting Saturday Night Live UK and has used a pre-episode teaser to playfully address a past controversy involving the US version of the show.
- Last year, Wood's appearance was parodied on Saturday Night Live US, with a cast member wearing exaggerated prosthetic teeth to mock her character from The White Lotus, which Wood publicly criticised as “unfunny and mean”.
- In the SNL UK teaser, Wood confronts cast members who are covering their mouths, initially believing they are mocking her with fake teeth again, only for them to reveal they are wearing fake moustaches.
- The sketch concludes with the SNL UK cast embracing Wood and placing a fake moustache on her, humorously subverting her expectation of further humiliation.
- Following the original US sketch, Wood clarified she was criticising the skit's “concept” rather than the actor, which led to an apology from SNL and flowers being sent to Wood.
