About this show
The King is back! Mitch Benn resurrects Elvis from BBC Radio 2's legendary Steve Wright in the Afternoon show, to answer hunks of burning questions about life, death, cheeseburgers and everything in between... including the story of how Mitch managed to be possibly the most popular thing on the most popular show on British radio for over ten years, without anyone ever knowing it was him.
