I, an act-AAAAAH!

Mark E Smith is apparently going to turn up playing a comic foil to Johnny Vegas - not, we understand, taking the ITV Digital Monkey role in a PG Tips ad, but in a forthcoming episode of I Deal.

Lets hope being himself doesn't put too much of a strain on him - he's going to struggle to remember his motivation, isn't he?

Smith's supposed to be playing (ho ho!) Jesus, isn't he? The standard don't-bother-even-attempting-to-act role for stunt-cast celebs.

My understanding of the role was that he was meant to be Mark E Smith-cum-Jesus. MESsiah, if you will.

Of course, there's something special about a role which can be handled by Mark E Smith and Alanis Morisette
