Re: RIP Cilla Black

I just logged in to start this thread, such sad news, I read it on facebook so was just checking if it was true... loved blind date as a child and we always had Surprise Surprise on on a Sunday night. The recent film about her changed my view of her slightly (bit of a diva) but still very sad to hear she is no longer with us. RIP Our Cilla Taraaa chuck taraaa xx

Re: RIP Cilla Black

What terribly sad news about Cilla Black passing away I think it would be accurate to describe Cilla was an all-round entertainer - Blind Date in the 1980s/1990s was "real Saturday Night TV" and Cilla made Saturday Night TV through Blind Date I feel - that was literally the time I was growing up and always has been an abiding memory I have held for years

As well too Cilla was an amazingly good Singer I thought - I loved all the songs Cilla sang. They just had that vibe somehow I felt/feel

Rip Cilla Black

Re: RIP Cilla Black

I wonder was she ill or what did she die of.
R i p cilla.

I must say this is a shock to me.

Yes i was a big watcher of blind date and surprise surprise just cause i loved both shows but she was a great host..

She was also a very good singer as well.

Though I'd never heard off it - it is brilliant lovely song indeed How too Cilla sang the Surprise, surprise Theme now has become really sad for me to watch.

Cilla gave and made TV in the 1980s it's halycon days at it's real best no doubts

Just been announced... she died of a stroke after a fall, she was knocked unconscious after hitting her head. So hopefully didn't suffer knew nothing about it.

Re: RIP Cilla Black

sad news. strokes are devastating. I've worked with people who've been rehabilitated and despite modern day medicine and miracles I know if it was me I'd rather be allowed to go quickly. Her family will be devastated but I can't think of a nicer way to see your mam out than knowing she was loved by so many people nationwide and beyond. They must feel so proud despite the sadness.

Re: RIP Cilla Black

Sad news, it sounded like she was in a bad way even before the stroke, with a failing eyesight & arthritis in her hands.

I was too young to remember her as a singer, but Suprise Suprise & certainly Blind Date were what I remember her best for.
