“In the end,” Bruce wrote, “Slane became part of the growing list of performances that attained ‘legendary’ status. Despite my distraction, it turned out to be a solid show. On the streets of Dublin, it’s often mentioned to me. If you were there, you were there. I was certainly there.”

A few thoughts on this one.

I hope it feels distinctively British, as a lot of SNL humour doesn’t translate.

Also, as Richard Osman pointed out on Rest is Ents lately, locking in a cast for a while is hard as they will get offers elsewhere.
