In popular culture

  • In "Episode Five" (series 6) of the BBC Radio 4 sketch show Dead Ringers, Prime Minister Tony Blair (Jon Culshaw) phoned up MGM Studios in New York to talk about resolving the conflict between Tom and Jerry, believing that if they are brought together, it will bring peace to all other cartoon animals. The woman's complete composure and willingness to help on the other end, makes Jon Culshaw break character and laugh.
