It is estimated that there are more than 85,000 Elvis Presley impersonators around the world, in a phenomenon spanning countries, cultures and religions.

Graeme Oxby presents his photographic survey of The Kings of England, featuring dramatic, intriguing and often amusing photographic portraits of impersonators he has tracked down at conventions and tribute concerts across the country.

The results prove that Elvis is still alive in the hearts and minds of enthusiasts from every age, location and background.

North Lincolnshire Council deputy leader Councillor John Briggs said: “This exhibition is always on my mind, ever since we started planning the event.
