Welcome to Springfield…

IN a much trailed ‘World First’, Sky broadcast, on St Patrick’s Day, an episode of The Simpsons before it had been seen in the United States. Meanwhile our own Homer and Ned (you decide which is the First and which is the Deputy First Minister…) were in the US.

At least President Obama caught the mood when he advised those present not to don lampshades lest a photographer grab a shot.

And then in a storyline that could have been from The Simpsons the Taioseach, Brian Cowen, read some of President Obama’s lines from the White House teleprompter.
