Kristen Wiig's departure from Saturday Night Live is yet to be announced but on Saturday night her co-stars all but confirmed her farewell. With a little help form Mick Jagger of course.

The show's 37th series finale saw her take part in a mock graduation ceremony that concluded with the Bridesmaid star dancing with series creator Lorne Michaels as Jagger, SNL regulars and Arcade Fire serenaded her with the Rolling Stones classics Ruby Tuesday and She's a Rainbow. It was emotional stuff.

Wiig is leaving to concentrate on a plethora of other film projects and after the monumental success of her Oscar nominated debut Bridesmaids who can blame her!

SNL have yet to confirm whether Andy Samberg and Jason Sudelkis will be following her out of the door but if they do the show will have a gargantuan task filling each of their roles.
