Elvis Cridlington (Seasons 1-5)

Elvis Cridlington is the one of the main characters from the popular children's TV show mh:besttvshows:Fireman Sam. He is one of the firefighters at the Pontypandy Fire Station and has also been assigned the position of station mess manager.

Why He Used To Rock

 * 1) While he is shown to be dimwitted in most episodes he is presented in, he is actually shown to do a decent job at being a firefighter he is in.
 * 2) He is a pretty funny and is shown to have some funny moments in the show, like the part where he pretends to be a beast in "Beast of Pontypandy" and the scene in "Carnival of Junk" where Station Officer Steele tries to remember what he did in his childhood, in which Elvis asks if he hunted dinosaurs.
 * 3) He has a passionate love for music and is generally shown to be not that bad of a singer for the most part.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Even though his character is supposed to be somewhat dimwitted in the episodes he is presented in, sometimes his dimwitted nature can lead to him acting like an idiot and into doing something that a normal firefighter shouldn't normally do:
 * 2) *He once tried to put out a TV fire with a bucket of water in "A Real Live Wire", not realising that he was supposed to turn the power off before putting out the TV fire.
 * 3) His character got flanderized horribly after Season 6.
