Equality
|
Nov 07, 2020

Life

Live
|
Nov 07, 2020

Back when I was helping put the swing into the swinging '60s, I used to hang out with Cathy McGowan. We'd be doing 'Ready Steady Go!' on T.V., and Biba used to make our dresses. We'd be in the flat in Cromwell Road on Friday night, just before the live show, and they'd still be sewing.

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

The first time I went to Abbey Road and put those headphones on, I discovered I had two voices. I no longer had to shout in the studio, but I can't knock the Cavern or the other clubs because they gave me my strong voice.

Children
|
Nov 07, 2020

I've got a bike in the lounge that I watch Coronation Street on. I never had to watch my weight until I had the children, but with the bike, I'm fine.

Hand
|
Nov 07, 2020

I am falling apart. My hand is falling apart. I can't shake hands. I had arthritis, and I had an operation for it.

Nov 07, 2020

You see on 'Britain's Got Talent' and 'X Factor,' they all wear ear plugs. But I could not hear myself when I wore them. So that is where the strong voice came from.

Doing
|
Nov 07, 2020

I don't see why I should be a dame for just doing what I always wanted to do.

God

Great
|
Nov 07, 2020

I've got lots of great friends in show business, and that's all they are. Great friends. I'll never marry again - what's the point? I had the best. I've got friends all over the world, and that's enough for me.

Love
|
Nov 07, 2020

It's true what they say: 'You don't appreciate what you've got until it's gone.' I miss love. I miss being looked after.

Nov 07, 2020

I've had days when I go in my bedroom for 24 hours at a time. I call them my Cilla Black days, and they're literally black days. It's like the old Boomtown Rats song 'I Don't Like Mondays.' You just want to shut the whole day down.

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm a Roman Catholic. Or was. I was brought up that way and used to say my prayers every night, but I don't pray to God any more. I might use the usual phrases I picked up from my parents, 'Oh, if God spares me next year...' or 'Please God...' but they're only phrases.

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

I've had a blessed life. I've pulled back from trying to control my destiny and gone back to accepting whatever fate has in store for me. I live for today because I don't know what'll happen tomorrow.

Having
|
Nov 07, 2020

Having a biopic made is very flattering.

Home
|
Nov 07, 2020

T.V. found me. I was offered jobs. It came in handy when I started having babies. Just one night's work, and then I could go home. I loved 'Surprise Surprise', but it was hard work. 'Blind Date' was a doddle by comparison.

Lies
|
Nov 07, 2020

On my gravestone, I want 'Here lies the singer,' not 'Here lies the T.V. presenter'.

Home
|
Nov 07, 2020

Live
|
Nov 07, 2020

I was reading about an age pill that has been developed which they claim will make you live longer. That is not for me.

Go
|
Nov 07, 2020

I don't want to live beyond the age of 75. That would be a good point to bow out. I don't want to go on for ever.

Good
|
Nov 07, 2020

When I go out, it's to have a good time, not to find a man.
