Sad to hear today that U.K. 60's singer and TV legend, Cilla Black has passed away aged 72.

Cilla goes back to the 60's alongside the Beatles and the likes of Gerry and the Pacemakers from the "cavern" era and the "Liverpool" sound.Had hits with "Anyone who had a heart";"Step inside Love and "Alfie". She then had a highly successful T.V. career fronting U.K. shows that had a massive Saturday night following.

She shall be missed.

Yes a terrible shock hearing this news earlier today.
An extremely popular celebrity in many a British household for well over 30 years as a TV presenter and a further 20 years previously as a singer.

A very big loss to many, especially people like not only family but her very close celebrity friends such as Paul O Grady etc.

RIP Cilla and reunited once again with your beloved Bobby.

One newscaster said that she never got over the shock of her husband's death.

It may a cliche to say it but she was a genuine personality, unspoiled by success and will be missed greatly.
