UK graffiti artist Banksy has created a controversial title sequence for long-running US animation The Simpsons.
The latest intro, which was shown in the US on Sunday, opens with the street artist’s tag scrawled across the town of Springfield.
It closes with a minute-long sequence showing dozens of sweatshop workers in a warehouse painting cartoon cells and making Simpsons merchandise.
The episode, called MoneyBart, will be shown in the UK on 21 October.
The extended sequence was apparently inspired by reports the show outsources the bulk of their animation to a company in South Korea.
According to the street artist, his storyboard led to delays, disputes over broadcast standards and a threatened walk out by the animation department.
“This is what you get when you outsource,” joked The Simpsons executive producer Al Jean.
Other famous Britons to have contributed to the long-running US series include Tony Blair, Simon Cowell and Ricky Gervais.
Gervais also wrote Homer Simpson, This Is Your Wife in 2006, and is to make another appearance on the show next year.
