A LITTLE BIT OF ELVIS WITH FRANK SKINNER (1998)


Producer/Director
50 mins, Digibeta
TX Sept 1998
Avalon Television for ITV

A road trip about memory, doubt and proof, with Frank Skinner travelling from Memphis to Vegas to discover whether the blue velvet shirt he bought for £12,000 really did belong to Elvis, and learning something about faith along the way.


Fascinating documentary following British comedian, Frank Skinner, as he attempts to verify the authenticity of a purported shirt once belonging to Elvis that Skinner bought at auction. ... Skinner travels around the country tracking down those that might be able to confirm the shirt's authenticity. During his travels, Skinner meets with Scotty Moore and gets to sing Peace In The Valley with The Jordanaires. Wonderful viewing.
