Yes, I can see that morning meeting at ITV HQ. 'Cilla's dead. Stick it on again.'


Grieving time is all too brief at ITV as well.

Wait until the press get wind that Cecil was a bigamist, fathered multiple bastard offspring, leading to hordes of single parent lionesses roaming the African plains scavenging on scraps and handouts...Channel 5 have already commissioned the biopic.

My thoughts on this were that its rare that tributes to people who have died seem so positive and genuine. From Jimmy Tarbuck, Bruce etc


But strangely no one seemed particularly sad, they seemed to be celebrating her life rather than grieving, possibly because she was such a happy, warm and generous person, who had enjoyed her life to the full and was still enjoying it to the end, the way we all would probably.

There's always been plenty of background industry chatter of the non-warm-and-generous ilk, Mick. I'm not sure Tarby and Bruce can be relied upon for the complete picture..


Personally I put most of any negativity down to a healthy dose of misogyny with a side of envy. Anyway, she never really gave much of a toss what anyone thought of her, because she thought she was great - and so did twenty million other people at one point, so who's to argue?


She had a great life, she got to the top, did everything she wanted to do - and said many times she wanted to die before she got too old. Sounds like things worked out just fine.

And you are clearly free to behave like a charmless git. 1/10- please try harder.

It's sad that Cilla passed away, she was a star and a proper lady, I never heard anything horrible or scandalous about her. My condolences to anyone who is in mourning.


My cat died, dropped dead aged 2 and a half ... sudden death syndrome. I still miss my cat every day, more than I miss some people. Thank you.

Oh dear again !!


And I thought she was more down to earth than all that ... during an appearance on Room 101 she claimed to dislike the "do you know who I am ? " celebs and wouldn't use celebrity to her advantage. She said that if she phoned a restaurant and they didn't have a table for Mrs Willis, then they didn't have a table for Cilla Black.

Written after her death and therefore could be a bunch of

rubbish - although most celebrities have airs and graces

and I've seen worse - and acted worse on a plane (when it

leaked hydraulics and they were about to go anyway) :).

      Tree Killer – Seeking Advice on Dealing with Toxic Neighbours

      By FellbriggSam · Posted

      He did mention it's share of freehold, I’d be very cautious with that. It can turn into a nightmare if relationships with neighbours break down. My brother had a share of freehold in a flat in West Hampstead, and when he needed to sell, the neighbour refused to sign the transfer of the freehold. What followed was over two years of legal battles, spiralling costs and constant stress. He lost several potential buyers, and the whole sale fell through just as he got a job offer in another city. It was a complete disaster. The neighbour was stubborn and uncooperative, doing everything they could to delay the process. It ended in legal deadlock, and there was very little anyone could do without their cooperation. At that point, the TA6 form becomes the least of your worries; it’s the TR1 form that matters. Without the other freeholder’s signature on that, you’re stuck. After seeing what my brother went through, I’d never touch a share of freehold again. When things go wrong, they can go really wrong. If you have a share of freehold, you need a respectful and reasonable relationship with the others involved; otherwise, it can be costly, stressful and exhausting. Sounds like these neighbours can’t be reasoned with. There’s really no coming back from something like this unless they genuinely apologise and replace the trees and plants they ruined. One small consolation is that people who behave like this are usually miserable behind closed doors. If they were truly happy, they’d just get on with their lives instead of trying to make other people’s lives difficult. And the irony is, they’re being incredibly short-sighted. This kind of behaviour almost always backfires.

      I had some time with him recently at the local neighbourhood forum and actually was pretty impressed by him, I think he's come a long way.
