RICKY TURNS DOWN BART

Ricky Gervais has turned down the honour of being in The Simpsons.

The Office star has also reportedly turned down a string of big-money US deals. And all because he wants to stay in Britain.

Ricky, 42, was flooded with Hollywood offers after The Office won two Golden Globe awards, according to The Sun.

One deal included his own major network show, as well as the appearance with Bart.

The papers says Ricky feels his real talents lie behind the camera. "I'm a writer, not an actor" he is quoted as saying.

"I don't want to pop up as a Mr Brit on every other television programme. I need to go home to where it rains," he said.

In the near future, he is set to write and produce the US version of The Office before concentrating on a BBC sitcom about insurance salesmen.

have you actually seen any new Simpsons episodes? they're absolute garbage, the show has really lost it. I'm glad he turned it down.

As much as I love the Simpsons, it relys too much on guest appearances to reel in viewers now. shameful indeed.

As for the other offers, he's choosing not to sell out. Good for him.
