Picture of the Week – and it’s Pope John Paul II sitting in the cupboard under the stairs.
The extraordinary sight forms part of the particulars of a property for short-term rent in central London.
Without fear of contradiction, agents Kinleigh Folkard Hayward state: “We make no apologies that this property is not for everyone.”
Very true – given that the rent is £8,000 a week.

Apparently film buffs will love it, though, as this is the home of Roland Emmerich, director of blockbuster hits Independence Day, Godzilla and Stargate.
The slideshow is well worth a flick through.

Oh, dear.
But that’s okay – their disclaimer covers the gaffe:
“However, no guarantees for the accuracy of information are made…”
TOO BL00DY TRUE!

Brilliant stuff!
At the other end of the spectrum we have just started to market this gem for sale.

At some expense clearers have been working on it for several weeks ….
