Elvis in his tux, and not his suit.

A possible solution:

Image 1 is from a previous Trivia Quiz No.987 - [a million miles away in another quiz series] & not related to the Allen show.

Image 2 is the cropped one used to start the current 'No.987' quiz.

I think you're right, it's not the rehearsal. Here's a screencap from what I think could be the moment that's captured in the picture above:

Image comparison: a clipping from the photo posted by Colin B (right) and an (nearly) identical screenshot from the live broadcast of the TV show (left), for which I added a TV frame using an online tool (photofunia.com).
