A TEESSIDE town is going for a record with a difference.

Shoppers who visit the Hill Street Centre, Middlesbrough, on Saturday can have their caricature drawn free while helping cartoonist Paul Slattery in his record attempt to draw the greatest number of caricatures over a three-hour period.

He is already in the Guinness Book of Records as the man who, in drawing a 60ft cartoon of Newcastle player Alan Shearer, created the world's biggest caricature.

"It's going to be a challenge but I'm really looking forward to it," said Paul.
