Saturday Night Live UK is mere days away from launching, and we now have the first ever promo — featuring SNL royalty Tina Fey herself.

In the clip above cast members Celeste Dring, Hammed Animashaun, Larry Dean, George Fouracres, Jack Shep, Ayoade Bamgboye, Al Nash, Paddy Young, Ania Magliano, Annabel Marlow, and Emma Sidi sit around discussing how they're going to promote the show, when Fey suddenly floats down from the ceiling — in full Mary Poppins regalia — to give them advice.

SNL UK will follow the same guest host format as the original, with Fey hosting in the first week (with musical guest Wet Leg) followed by Jamie Dornan and Riz Ahmed (with Wolf Alice and Kasabian, respectively) in the upcoming weeks.

Saturday Night Live UK is live on Sky One this Saturday at 10 p.m. BST, and available on streaming service NOW.
