Noel Gallagher has revealed he wants to write a sitcom with Russell Brand, according to The Sun.The Oasis star, who is a regular on Russell's Radio 2's show, claims that the pair will collaborate when he is free from his band commitments.Noel said: "I'd like to be part of a team of scriptwriters. I think I'd be good. Russell has been trying to rope me into something but at the moment I can't commit to anything outside Oasis. But, one day, who knows?" The musician believes that he and Russell get along so well because of their opposite personalities. He says: "Russell's a big posh Essex boy former junkie who’s been to the dark side and got into Hare Krishna. He's never seen a council estate."I'm a gruff Northerner who drinks Red Stripe. He finds that fascinating. He's all 'But Noel darling, don't you believe in a higher existence?' and I'm like, 'Not dressed in a sheet banging a tambourine, you big Jessie'."
