How we counted
We searched TikTok, Instagram and YouTube for public posts about Saturday Night Live UK made between 4 Oct 2026 and 2 Nov 2026: clips, reactions, edits, reviews and reposts. Each candidate post was read (caption, spoken words and on-screen text) and kept only if it was really about Saturday Night Live UK.
Owned views are on Saturday Night Live UK’s own accounts. Earned views are on everyone else’s posts: fans, creators and media. View counts are what each platform showed publicly on 3 Nov 2026; they keep growing after that date. Where a number could not be measured we say so rather than count it as zero.
