..The statue of Lord John Scott - a benefactor, landlord and MP who was a well-respected figure in Dunchurch, near Rugby - was Simpsonised on New Year's Eve, leaving Lord John with yellow skin, a bald head and a pronounced overbite.

The statue of Lord John, who died in 1860, is also dressed in Homer Simpson's standard uniform of white shirt-sleeved shirt and blue trousers.

Altering the statue has become something of a tradition in recent years - previous pranks have seen it transformed into icons such as Harry Potter, Shrek and Spider-Man.

Residents say that they'd mostly like to find those responsible to congratulate them on the level of detail they achieved - but that they doubt anyone will come forward, fearing they'd get in trouble.
