Elvis: guns, drugs and 8,000 calorie sandwiches (part 2)
It’s 1960 and Elvis is a superstar sex symbol. Women want him, men want to be him. He’s a national icon. But in the space of 16 years, Elvis will become a washed up laughing stock, stage the greatest comeback of all time, and come crashing back to earth, ending up dead on the toilet at 42.

He was the most famous rockstar of the 20th century. So how did Elvis end up an obese wreck, dead on the toilet at 42, surrounded by sex books and prescription pills? We're charting the first half of his life - as he turns from a Mississippi mamas boy into an amphetamine-addled music star with a teenage girlfriend.
