Thanks, I just noticed that.

Mark Billingham , the writer who did a public interview with Elvis in Liverpool last year , has tweeted a link to the Sky show with this comment -

I think I may be spotted gobbing off about EC in this...

That's disappointing.
Since you put me down, it seems i've been very gloomy. You may laugh but pretty girls look right through me.

Such a shame they didn't show the whole programme. It was a brave and potentially career destroying decision by Elvis but a great album. I would have liked to know what the Attractions' reaction was when he told them. Though they seemed to be enjoying the adventure.
