The series, which gives cameras and training to people to record their own lives. Elvis: the Yorkshire Years
After 12 years, singer and Elvis impersonator Scott Davis feels trapped and disillusioned by the pub and club circuit of the north east. He rebels against his agent and, in true Hollywood style, books himself a mini-tour in Orlando, Florida. The fabulous reception he receives from the audiences there give him a tantalising glimpse of another world. Back home in England life seems even harder to take as the recession hits the entertainment business.
Broke and depressed, Scott decides on drastic action to achieve his ambitions.
