- In October, Gillis joked during the U.S. opening monologue that women dressed like prostitutes after he had been away from the gym.
- The joke drew criticism from Dan Levy and former U.S. SNL cast members Ego Nwodim and Cecily Strong, among others.
- On “Weekend Update,” Magliano introduced her profane mockery with a story about shorts protecting women from voyeuristic filming at Munich’s Oktoberfest.
- Clips of Magliano’s appearance spread on X; one critic called “SNL UK” funnier than the original after six second-season episodes.
Oh, Shane, you’re not allowed to say that, you stupid fucking cunt.— Ania Magliano, Weekend Update UK anchor, delivering the roast of Shane Gillis after noting his use of the F-word.

- US officials cited by CNN said plans exist for a MOAB strike on Iranian energy and nuclear sites if Trump orders combat.
- The bomb contains about 8,500kg of explosives, weighs 9,800kg, and has only been deployed once, in Afghanistan in 2017.
- Experts doubt the MOAB could destroy Iran’s deeply buried nuclear facilities; Elijah Magnier views it as potential political theatre.
- Experts warn Iran could respond to an attack with measures against neighbouring countries or regional digital infrastructure.
If the answer centres on the spectacle of the explosion, the proposal is stronger as political theatre than as military strategy.— Elijah Magnier, Brussels-based military expert, commenting on the MOAB discussion in Iran (Al Jazeera interview)
