Mad About Elvis

Documentary, BBC1

Elvis is alive and well and, every September since 2004, partying hard in Porthcawl, South Wales. With 35,000 visitors, the majority in costume, and fast becoming a Welsh institution, the Porthcawl Elvis Festival is the largest in the world. Meeting people who like to lose themselves as Elvis and people who like to lose themselves through watching make-believe Elvises, we explore why the lure of Elvis is still so intoxicating 40 years on from his death.
