Additional InformationSheridan Smith (MRS BIGGS) stars as swinging 60's icon Cilla Black in this biopic from the pen of acclaimed writer Jeff Pope (LUCAN, PHILOMENA). The three-part drama charts her rocky rise to fame; from her humble beginnings in a typist pool, to her fortuitous signing with first manager Brian Epstein, her friendship with fellow Liverpudlian scenesters The Beatles, and the strain her new found stardom had on her marriage to her beloved Bobby. Ed Stoppard (UPSTAIRS, DOWNSTAIRS) and Aneurin Barnard (THE WHITE QUEEN) co-star in this fascinating, intimate tale of one of Britain's best loved entertainers.

  • Sheridan Smith is excellent

    I bought this dvd recently having lost my original one in a house move. Sheridan Smith is excellent in the part of Cilla Black. All cast excellent too. Special mention to the great Aneurin Bernard as the love of Cilla’s life Bobby and also the lovely Ed Stoppard as the tragic Brian Epstein. Great story very enlightening and interesting, the capture the swinging 60’s atmosphere too. Great music as well. Great value for money. Can recommend this dvd highly, take a trip down memory lane to a more innocent, charming era.

    Sheridan Smith gives a terrific performance in the title role and has equally as much talent as Cilla herself.

  • Well done series. but....

    ......the characters are good, but one could make more effort to get Beatles and Brian Epstein more portrait-like.
