Coldplay, the latest in the long-line of musicians deemed important enough to warrant a guest appearance on 'The Simpsons,' saw their episode of the animated comedy on Jan. 31.

Chris Martin and company's episode will be screened on Sky 1 in the UK in May.

The episode, entitled 'Million Dollar Maybe,' sees Coldplay performing for Homer and Bart in their own private stadium, after Homer hires the band to play for them after winning the lottery. Homer turns down the chance to play tambourine, while the show is halted so Bart can use the lavatory during the title track from Coldplay's 'Viva La Vida' album.

Other rock stars to appear on long-running show include R.E.M., U2, the Who and Sir Paul McCartney. There is footage of Martin recording his voice-over, along with some dialogue that didn't make the final cut, at Coldplay's official website. It's pretty funny.
