Ralph Steadman: 'Why was I so vicious? Was I unfair?' | Film Set in the grounds of a house you might reasonably describe as a mansion, Ralph Steadman's Maidstone studio is a vast, rambling series of rooms.

Steadman hadn't read any of Thompson's work, and he certainly didn't know that the writer had a bit of a drinking tendency, but he agreed to go. One booze-riddled weekend later, Scanlan's published the essay and launched Thompson into stardom.

That search became the central narrative of the essay. A self-portrait of Steadman.
