FULL EPISODE: There is one man who scares Elton. Why? Because he's Elton's double, Ray Johnson. Able to clear security to get back stage at a Paris gig, he's appeared in loads of commercials and even the Franco-Belgian cinema series The Tuche Family. Starting out on ITV's The Lookalikes Agency, Ray has posed for photos with "Rocketman" the North Korean leader's lookalike and even worked four times with Elton - but never been lucky enough to snap a selfie! Hear this amazing story of the man who performed a Very Very Very Very good song, sung by the Muscles from Brussels actor Jean-Claude Van Damme, and appeared on BBC's Have I Got News For You. Pinner also scrambled a song in his honour, I'm Elton's Double, Honest!
