SHOPPERS in Kidderminster were left with suspicious minds and forced to do a double take last week after a renowned impersonator of "The King" left them all shook up.

Gordon Hendricks, who won the 2005 Stars in Eyes Their Final, stopped by the Swan Centre last Thursday and performed a host of Elvis Presley's classic tunes.

The Stoke-on-Trent hip shaker, who scooped more then 84,000 phone votes to take the hit show title, wowed audiences for 45 minutes before signing autographs.

Ros Darby, acting centre manager, said although the crowds were not on the scale of Las Vegas, those who did catch the performance were given a treat.

She added: "It went down really well. There were quite a lot of people coming, going and stopping to have a look. He has said he will try to come back again, which will be good because people enjoyed it this time."

Fans will be able to see the performer in concert on Saturday, August 12, at Highley's Severn Centre. All profits from the show, which starts at 8pm, will be donated to charity.
