Alec Baldwin and Tina Fey paid tribute to Tracy Morgan on Saturday Night Live’s 40th anniversary show.
The former 30 Rock actors made a special mention of their co-star, who is still recovering from a car accident last June in which he suffered a broken femur, broken nose and broken ribs, during the late-night sketch show’s three-hour NBC special.
Alec tried to impersonate the 46-year-old actor and Tina made a heartfelt tribute to him.
She said: “I wish my friend Tracy Morgan was here tonight. I know he was hoping he would be well enough to be here, too.
“If he were here tonight I am sure Tracy would remind us that more than anything, he would like to get us all pregnant. See you at the 41st, Tracy. We love you.”
The show also saw Eddie Murphy greeted with a standing ovation as he took to the SNL stage for the first time in 40 years and admitted the programme will always be a big part of his life.
