Kurt Russell later went on to play Elvis in a biopic. Directed by some one famous, but I can't remember who. Might have been John Carpenter.....

In that case then, does it having anything to do with the 'depression' left in the east lawn of the grounds at Burton Constable, following the removal of Brown's 'Ha-Ha' ?

Ha Ha.

It is depression, and that of a famous person. Nuffink to do with Burton Constable. A much more famous place.
