EXTRACTS:
New ITV documentary Sir Cliff Richard: 60 Years In Public And In Private celebrates his six decades in show business, spending time with 78-year-old Cliff at home in Portugal with his younger sister Joan, and includes contributions from Brian May, Olivia Newton-John, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Dame Joan Collins, Gloria Hunniford and fellow Shadows band members Bruce Welch, Hank Marvin and Brian Bennett.
Brian May says, ‘Cliff’s been through stuff that would break many a man – to be accused of stuff you’re not guilty of and have that kind of smear on you, I can’t imagine how hurt he must have been.’
‘The rock star is a very rebellious kind of creature,’ says Brian May, ‘and he’s scornful of the morals of the time.
‘For Cliff to cast himself in that role but still maintain his open faith was, I think, hard for him to pull off.’
