Blair records role in The Simpsons

British Prime Minister Tony Blair has recorded some lines of dialogue for a special edition of 'The Simpsons'.

Blair is to star as an animated version of himself in an episode of the hit US TV show.

He spent a short time on Friday recording the dialogue for the episode, in which the Simpson family go to Britain for a holiday.

The politician's cartoon alter-ego is said to be depicted with a big cheesy grin and sticky-out ears.

'Harry Potter' author JK Rowling and actor Ian McKellen also feature in the episode, although England football manager David Beckham was not deemed famous enough for inclusion.
