I grew up with that guy. So, of course, we are going to do something," the Mirror quoted Murphy as telling the Television Critics Association``s summer meeting in Beverly Hills, California. And Sir Paul won``t be the only British name associated with Glee when it returns next season. Murphy said Britain`s Got Talent discovery Susan Boyle was in talks to be part of the Christmas episode.
