‘IT WAS A PRIVILEGE TO KNOW AND LOVE HER’- Paul Mc Cartney
The news that Cilla Black had died in August at the age of seventy-two triggered an outpouring of love and a wave of sadness that spread around the world. Her infectious personality and her common touch made her one of Britain’s best loved entertainers. Known to one generation for a string of number-one hits like Anyone Who Had a Heart and You’re My World, and loved by another for hosting the classic ITV show
Blind Date, Cilla came a long way from hanging coats in Liverpool’s Cavern Club for five bob an hour.
In
Cilla: 1943 2015, Douglas Thompson traces her rise to the top, her heart-warming marriage to Bobby Willis and the profound effect his death had on her. This affectionate biography is a fitting tribute to our Cilla, a huge talent who became a national treasure.
