Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick). There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too. |

RIP Cilla Black
Well, you can't expect them all to be "on" all the time. They put on an act on telly, they're all people too, and everyone has bad days.

Re: RIP Cilla Black
That's true, but be'll I'd met Bjorn Bourg & Greg Rusedski in the same lift and both said 'hello' and I had a quick chat with Greg.
Our Cilla wasn't as forthcoming

Re: RIP Cilla Black
I see her in the same vein as Bob Monkhouse and Bruce Forsyth. Rather tacky, should have had the dignity to retire years ago.
Every interview with Cilla makes it look like she was the 5th Beatle; seems that she worked in the cloakstore. That said, I hope she died quickly and painlessly. |

And then at a time when few females were given the chance to front their own show she was one of the first to do so. It's easy for us to look back on that era as a bit tacky, remember we only had 2 maybe three TV channels! But I think Jack Whitehouse is just dreadful, I never got The Mighty Boosh at all and I would quite happily punch Graham Norton and Jonathan Ross.

RIP Cilla Black
I agree with your disdain for current TV - I watch about 1 hour a week, maybe 2.
I like dads army tho so I'm not against all old TV progs. |
