A wannabee Elvis impersonator has been banned from doing karaoke in his home town - after a string of shambolic performances.

Grandfather Richard Carpenter, 64, felt he had a knack for rock and roll and would often belt out classic hits from his idol in pubs seven nights a week.

But despite splashing out on a full outfit to try and look the part, he has been told to leave the building and not come back after organisers lost patience with his chaotic shows.
