Mark Denton profile
'Most people go down the pub, come up with crazy ideas, have a laugh, and then think no more about it,' he says. 'The difference is, I'll follow it through. And I'll do it properly, too.' It's true. The most extraordinary manifestation of this was probably his former west London bachelor pad, which he'd done up as a cartoon stately home, 'where Caravaggio meets Carry On'. The walls were festooned with cod-ancestral portraits of a wigged-up Denton posing variously as a Viking, an Edwardian footballer and a lecherous monk. Artist Ron Mueck and cartoonist Hunt Emerson helped create outlandish furniture and fittings, many of them roped off in the manner of National Trust properties and museums.
