The A-list are out in force for the 39th season of kids' favourite Sesame Street.

David Beckham, Jessica Alba, Kim Cattrall, Heidi Klum and Jenny McCarthy are amongst the celebrity guests, co-starring alongside Elmo, Ernie and Big bird.

For Beckham, the cameo sees the football star teaching Elmo how to spell the word 'persistent.'

A source told to The Telegraph that Becks was honoured to take part on the show. 'David has always been a huge fan of the show' they revealed, 'When he was a kid he watched it, like a lot of people, and knew all the characters. He was more than happy to go on.'

I'd love to see David Beckham count the numbers 10 to 1 backwards in a deep voice. He should find that one both intellectually and vocally challenging, but hey great comedy for any outsider.

Aw bless! I love Sesame Street! Schooldays off sick were always made better by flicking over to Channel 4! A true classic that will never date!
Now all I need is to think of enough excuses to stay off work...!
