I Think My Brain Just Crashed

Wait a minute...

Paul Darrow played Elvis?

Apparently so.

The above pic is from this entertaining archive and was found via the wonders of Google.

Ow.

I'm still trying to process that picture in my mind...somehow it's not... Does PD sing?

Yep. And quite well, if one goes by fans who know this sort of thing far better than I do.

The aforementioned play was a musical and one can't imagine the director casting someone who, y'know, can't sing. :)

Would be interesting to hear how his singing is.

I was thinking they may have lip-synched his stuff if he couldn't.

Maybe these days, but this was back in the stone age - y'know, early 1980s or something. I think the audiences still expected actual performances, then... ;)

Prod around the net, there's probably some sort of recording out there. :-D
