WANDERERS legend and lifelong Elvis Presley fan Frank Worthington dropped in to the Bolton Arena this week to pick up his tickets for the World's Greatest Elvis show.
And the show's organisers surprised him with a special performance from 2005 Stars In Their Eyes winner Gordon Hendricks.
Delighted Frank said: "This is going to be the greatest Elvis show on Earth, apart from the real thing."
He was also presented with two VIP tickets for the event which he auction off for charity.
More than 2,000 tickets have been sold for the show on Saturday, August 9, and Elvis fans from all over the world are expected in Bolton.
On the night, Shawn Klush, the World's Greatest Elvis winner, will join up with Elvis' original band, The Sweet Inspirations.
Fans will also be treated to performances from young American sensation Justin Shandor and UK tribute artists Steve Preston and Gordon Hendricks.
