US President Donald Trump shared a video on his Truth Social network on Sunday of a television comedy skit portraying a terrified British Prime Minister Keir Starmer hoping to dodge a phone call with the American leader.
The skit, broadcast on the premiere of the new British version of Saturday Night Live – adapted from the long-running US show – shows Starmer, played by George Fouracres, panicking inside 10 Downing Street at the prospect of a call with Trump.
Starmer turns to a fake David Lammy, his deputy prime minister, and says: “What if Donald shouts at me?”

When Trump picks up the phone, Starmer immediately hangs up, asking why it is so difficult to talk to “that scary, scary, wonderful president”.
“Sir, just be honest and tell him we can’t send any more ships to the Strait of Hormuz,” Lammy says, referring to the vital shipping lane effectively blocked by Iran since the US-Israeli attacks that started the conflict.
