It's only a few weeks now until Baz Luhrman's hotly anticipated biopic of Elvis Presley hits our screens.

In 2011 I made an audio documentary about the making of the superb BBC Radio 2 'Amazing Line' promo featuring Elvis live on stage with a band of musical luminaries including Marvin Gaye, Sheryl Crowe, Noel Gallagher and, on lead guitar, Mr. Jimmy Page.

For this documentary I spoke to the main protagonists in the making of this mini masterpiece:

• Producer Edel Erickson
• Director Steve Cope
• VFX artist Chris Mortimer
• Sound designer Munzie Thind
• Editor Tim Hardy

This feature-length programme includes some wonderful insights into what went on behind the scenes, including how Munzie coaxed an incredible performance out of the man who would be Elvis for 60 seconds.

I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed making it. We had a lot of fun.
