“Saturday Night Live UK” made a mockery of Shane Gillis over the weekend after the comedian’s controversial hosting gig of the U.S. show included a widely panned sexist joke.

Earlier this month, Gillis used his opening monologue in the States to joke that he hadn’t been to the gym for “so long” that he didn’t know “women dress like whores now.”

The joke prompted criticism from the likes of Dan Levy, along with former “SNL” U.S. cast members Ego Nwodim and Cecily Strong.

Ania Magliano, an anchor of “Weekend Update” across the pond, teed up her roast of Gillis by using a story about women getting free cycling shorts for a popular amusement ride at Munich Oktoberfest to protect them against people filming voyeuristic videos from below.

“Wearing the gym shorts will protect women from being upskirted, but it does make them vulnerable to something much worse,” said Magliano before an image of Gillis delivering his monologue flashed on the screen.

Magliano — after pausing several seconds for cheers and applause — marched on, noting that Gillis also accidentally used the word “fucking” during one of his live “SNL” sketches. (Note: He later apologized multiple times for dropping the F-bomb, a word that’s long been considered a big no-no on the show.)

“Oh, Shane, you’re not allowed to say that, you stupid fucking cunt,” said Magliano, whose show — which airs on the U.K.’s Sky One — faces much looser language restrictions.

Clips of the “SNL UK” star took off on X, with one critic declaring that it took the show just six episodes into its second season “to become funnier” than the original “SNL.”

“they’re doing everything the US version is afraid of doing 😭😭,” wrote another before adding, “honestly iconic.”

And comedian Gianmarco Soresi used the clip to call for every country to have its own version of “SNL” so they can compete “in a kind of world cup” every four years.
