she might have ended up being a massive tory once she was older but there was a period in the 60s when cilla black was just a working class girl with a pure talent and that's captured wonderfully in this biopic. i always remember my grandad hated cilla black's singing voice but anyone who had a heart reminds me of my mum's mixtapes in the car when i was little and the song still gives me chills today.
Cilla is a superb miniseries boasting high production value, cogent writing and terrific performances from its three leading performers.
I thought this was a near-perfect portrayal of the early years of Cilla Black's career. The performances are wonderful, especially Sheridan Smith as Cilla Black. If you enjoy biopics and stories set in the world of entertainment, this is highly recommended.
Toimiva henkilökuva 60-luvun laulajasta, Cillasta. Tuli Ylen kanavilta. Ilmeisesti pieni tv-elokuva, jossa svengaava Lontoo vie nostalgisesti mukaansa, mukanansa. Viattomuuden aika, muttei kulisseissa.
not that good but blond aneurin barnard with a strong scouse accent made me cry a little

Well I have to say is well done Sheridan Smith! Faultless performance from the songs to the acting =D.
Simply Amazing!
Diese Miniserie schildert den Aufstieg der britischen Sängerin Cilla Black aus kleinbürgerlichen Verhältnissen zum Star. Sheridan Smith, die Hauptdarstellerin, legt eine ziemlich beeindruckende Vorstellung hin, aber das überzeugendste Argument, die Serie anzuschauen, ist die ungemein stimmungsvoll inszenierte Atmosphäre der Swinging Sixties.
