SHE never wanted to live beyond the age of 75, and famously said ‘If I can’t wear tight jeans and high heels, I don’t want to be here’.

We have all donned our rose-tinted spectacles here in Spain, in the UK and internationally and have glanced down memory lane at Saturday nights on the sofa watching Blind Date.
Cilla, rest in peace, and thank you for entertaining us in such style, with such charisma, for so many years.
