Impersonators from as far as the Czech Republic and the US had come to battle it out in a competition to be the King of all Kings. The competitors came in all shapes and sizes - and spanned several decades of the legend's life - even a four year old turned up to try his luck. But the winner of the competition was the aptly named - Matt King. And it wasn't just Elvis impersonators out to revere their hero - couples were also here to have their wedding vows renewed by their hero.
