A farmer in the United States has cut two of the characters from Family Guy, the cult animated comedy, into a maze on his property. Stewie and Brian form the centrepiece of this year's seven acre "Corn Maize" at Connors Farm in Danvers, Massachusetts. Bob Connors, the owner of the farm, has even approached Seth MacFarlane in the hope of persuading the Family Guy creator to pay a visit. “We’ve been trying to get in touch with him. I’d love to have him do the voices here on our busy weekend," he told the Boston Globe.

The makers of Family Guy, a sharp comedy about an average American family with a talking dog, posed no objections to the use of its characters in the maze. The programme is shown on the Fox Network in the US, and BBC3 in Britain. “They waived the rights and all that," Mr Connors added. “We have to run everything by them, but they’ve been great."

While corn, tomatoes and other crops are still grown on the farm, it boosts its income with an annual maze and other activities to attract families, including hayrides and fruit picking. This year's effort, which is only open until the end of the month, features the Griffin family's highly intelligent but misanthropic baby, Stewie, pointing up in anger at his friend Brian, the erudite family pet.
