There’s a wonderful feeling of achievement when that first flash-light goes off.  And you love it and think it’s great.  And then you need it.  And then you’ve got to have it.  And then you’ve got to stay in the limelight.  It becomes a totally addictive thing, and you got to have more.  Jade: The Reality Star Who Changed Britain II, Mark Fuller, former nightclub dude

 

Jade is the UK’s first reality TV star to become a millionaire.  ibid.  caption

Thomas Edward Lawrence: The brilliant British army officer depicted in these exhilarating moments from the movie classic Lawrence of Arabia.  He is seen as a military visionary who led an Arab uprising and changed the world for ever.  But Lawrence is one of the most enigmatic figures of the 20th century.  Was he a man simply running from his past?  A man tormented by doubts about his identity.  How much was Lawrence driven by escapist fantasy?  His journey took him into the heart of the Middle East, transformed by monumental forces.  A lifetime of guilt was Lawrence’s reward.  This is the story of the real Lawrence of Arabia.  Lawrence of Arabia: Britain’s Great Adventurer, Channel 5 2020

 

Lawrence of Arabia is the most famous man in England.  He counts kings among his friends.  His name sells newspapers in their thousands.  But the most famous man in England may well be the unhappiest.  T E Lawrence is running for his life … [from] the fame that is killing him.  ibid.  

 

‘Lawrence did seem to have a high threshold of pain.’  ibid.    

 

Having survived his Syrian experience, he returns to Oxford where in 1910 his research brings him a first class degree and a chance to return to the desert he loves.  ibid.   

 

Lawrence reports back that the revolt needs guns, money and support.  It also requires an Arab leader worth the British investing in.  ibid.        

 

Lawrence is harbouring a secret: knowledge of a confidential British/French understanding that breaks their promise of a kingdom for the Arabs.  ibid.          

 

Deep down he feels he is to blame … Camelot with camels has crumbled before his eyes: he is full of regret and remorse.  ibid.          

 

 

‘Before Elvis there was nothing.’  Elvis: The Man that Rocked the World, Channel 5 2020, Lennon

 

He was the man who started it all and nearly 45 years after he left us he’s still the one true king of rock-n-roll.  Much more than an uncontrollable pelvis and smouldering good looks he became an icon of the 20th century.  And tonight we’re going to count down the Top 30 moments that made up his amazing life.  ibid.  

 

January 8th 1935: Elvis Aaron Presley entered the world.  ibid.  

 

Memphis was then home to one of the biggest jazz and blues music scenes in the US.  ibid.  

 

Elvis had the family he had always yearned for, but for Priscilla the dream was turning sour.  ibid.      

    

Ed Sullivan had earlier refused to have Elvis on his show but as he was now the biggest star in the country he had no choice.  ibid.      

 

All Shook Up was to be the first of his twenty-one top spots, even more than a young group from Liverpool.  ibid.  

 

After the huge success of the Comeback Special there was only one place for Elvis to go – Vegas.  ibid.

 

 

By the summer of 1955 Elvis’s extraordinary success in the American south was starting to attract national attention.  One man in particular could see Elvis’s money-making potential.  Elvis: The Man Shook Up the World, Channel 5 2020       

 

‘Colonel Parker was this kind of blustery, cigar-chewing, massively overweight, sweaty, untidy, ill-mannered larger than life character.’  ibid.  Bethan Roberts, author Graceland

 

The energetic way Elvis sings and dances in this appearance was shocking to a fifties’ audience.  ibid.  

 

The blacklash during 1956 was said to be difficult for Elvis’s mother, Gladys, too.  ibid.  

 

The Americas of Elvis’s teenage years was also changing fast.  The economy was growing, and for the first time young people had money in their pocket.  They were going out watching films, and above all, listening to music.  ibid.    

 

Elvis’s version of That’s All Right helped to set him on course for global stardom.  ibid.    

  

As Elvis is increasingly pulled away from her [mother’s] world, Gladys’s life starts to unravel.  ibid.  

 

Elvis officially entered the army on March 24th 1958.  Colonel Parker had arranged for news crews from around the world to be on hand to record this extraordinary event.  ibid.  

 

 

On 31st July 1969 a nervous Elvis Presley stepped out on to the stage at the International Hotel in Las Vegas after an eight-year absence from performance.  The show was a triumph: the culmination of a long hard journey for Elvis to show the world who he really was as an artist.  Elvis: Rebirth of the King, BBC 2020

 

But the triumph was brief and the end was not pretty.  The grind of over 600 Vegas shows in 8 years eventually killed the king.  For many this cartoon image of Elvis is the one that endures.  ibid.  

 

In 1956 Elvis Presley shook up the world.  Tall, dark and preternaturally handsome, this dirt-poor southern boy scandalised segregated America when he performed Hound Dog on NBC’s Milton Berle show.  ibid.  

 

In 1956 Love Me Tender was one of the highest grossing movies in the world.  What could possibly go wrong?  ibid.

 

Elvis determined that his future would be as a balladeer aimed at a mature audience, but it was a direction that set him on a collision course with the Colonel.  ibid.

 

 

Elvis is a searcher.  It’s a part of him that never left.  Elvis: The Searcher I, HBO 2018, Prescilla

 

In ’68 he was a nervous wreck.  Nervous because he didn’t know if his audience was going to accept him.  People had not seen him perform in so long.  ibid.

       

Elvis was born in a shotgun house.  The poorest of the poor lived in those houses.  His twin brother did not survive birth.  ibid.  Professor Bill Ferris
