Thank god he died before Little Britain

Elvis Presley, it turns out, was one of those people who know really how to spoil a lovely evening: Linda Thompson says he used to do Monty Python sketches:

"He's be doing all the voices, which is mind-boggling. He'd even do the ladies voices."

Since most of the "ladies" on the Python were John Cleese or Eric Idle in a dress, that's not so very much of a stretch, is it?

We're not even sure it's true: If Elvis started chortling "Spam, spam, spam, eggs, chips and spam" how could you tell if he was quoting Monty Python, or simply ordering an early evening snack?
