i just read it on the phone, i love cilla, proper entertainer

i also noticed that the bbc website/news havent bothered reporting it, they seem to think we're more bothered about drug testing in sports

I often find the BBC way behind the other news sites.  I think they have Sundays off...

It's the cuts Kaffy.

They're reporting it on BBC News 24 now. The delay was because they were waiting for confirmation of the reports. Other media outlets don't always bother checking...

sad news today 

She'll be reunited with her beloved Bobby now. RIP Cilla.

She gave me a lorra lorra laughs over the years. May she rest in peace.

Aww RIP cilla.

I was checking my Facebook at lunchtime and noted that our old pal Queen of the High Teas had reposted the initial report. We were all totally shocked. As the news spread through the Hotel one could sense the shock and disbelief. 

Those of us of a certain age are missing an important part of our past.

Very sad, moreso as it was so sudden . R.I.P Cilla, as said she will be with her beloved Bobby now 

I echo those sentiments Skylark . RIP Cilla

my mate was on blind date

she was good to look at-then she opened her gob

Cilla Black died of natural causes after falling on the balcony of her Spanish home, the coroner has confirmed.

The 72-year-old was sunbathing at her villa in Estepona when she lost her balance and fell hitting her head, which knocked her unconscious.

She subsequently died of a stroke.

The family have now been given permission to return her body home as soon as possible for her funeral.
