The hit comedy Star Stories returns and this week Elton John gets the treatment.
Kevin Bishop plays the flamboyant star and we find out just how he became the patron saint of celebrities.
Charting the rise to fame of Watford's finest, we see what Elton was like as a child and how he battled his sexuality and now spends his life shopping on QVC. It is a compelling story.
We love how Kevin depicts Elton - the costumes and glasses are brilliant. It might just be our ears but we reckon Kevin sounds a wee bit like Matt Lucas.
Elton isn't alone in his story, he's joined by friends John Lennon, Freddy Mercury, Lady Diana, Gianna Versace, George Michael and Elizabeth Hurley. Sadly, most of that list die but all are pivotal in Elton's life.
We mustn't forget Elton's rock, 'Indepedent film producer' David Furnish who constantly tries to stand up to his hubby but receives a tongue-lashing instead.
Brilliantly done and really funny. Next up on the list is Heather Mills. We can't wait.
