I loved it too. I'm considering getting it on DVD.
Sheridan's portrayal of Cilla is outstanding :-)

I watched part 3 from the recording box this morning, but I got quite upset with Cilla today, over how she treated Bobby!

I've just listened to both Cher and Cilla's versions of Alfie, and in my opinion, Cilla's is far superior. Full of emotion and pulls at the heart strings.

This is the link to Cilla's (original) recording of Alfie with Burt Bacharach at the studios

Loved it :-D and I still like Cilla's version of Alfie the best.

Think Sheridan is sure to get a tv. award for her portrayal, but I thought the casting of the Beatles was poor :-(

I like both
but chers was a stronger song :-D :-D

Just taken a look Joy, im not so sure although I am biased to our Cilla :-D :-D <3

I went on u tube and listened to Cher sing it Mersey

and though I like cilia Chers versions better :-D :-D :-D

She certainly wore the trousers, felt sorry for Bobby :-S

When she sang Alfie......I sang it full blast just loved it <3

I agree didn't show her in a good light,
suppose they all go that way at some point. :-)

Posted on the wrong thread :-S :-D

Sheridan Smith was amazing <3

great show
but wasn't she selfish poor bobby :-D :-D

and me :-D :-D

Im so looking forward to tonights episode :-)

I've just caught up. I had Cilla on the recording box!

I love it!

I've always been a big fan of Sheridan Smith. Love her in the role!
However, personally, I would prefer to hear Cilla's voice singing.

And I also love Aneurin Barnard.
Not being Liverpudlian, his accent as Bobby doesn't bother me. It took me a while to get used to the bleached blonde hair though..or is it a wig? :-D
Who remembers him as Richard 111 in The White Queen?

AND OF COURSE- HE'S WELSH ;-) :-D :-D


I enjoyed reading all about Brenda In Wales too :-) :-)

The program after was a repeat just like the Beatles 50th anniversary that was on last week which I have seen 3 times this year

It was good though

Sheridan was on This Morning before the first programme went out, and she was saying that she only got the voice right when the teeth went in, also Cilla was ment to be on the show but was unwell. I love it and cant wait for next week

Did anyone see the programme after the ten a clock news with Paul O'Grady and Cilla? very good

I enjoyed it too last night, I think Cilla would have had a great deal of input in the programme to make sure it was factually correct.


Brenda - Bobby sadly died from liver and lung cancer

Joeva...love your avatar.....
I also agree with Jax and Jo that I think Sheridan is lovely and her voice is very good.
I like her version better.
I also don't think her nose looks like Cillas was before the nose job..she is really a lovely looking bubbly girl.
Does Bobby never have a cigarette out of his mouth?

Enjoyed Cilla's records many years ago at parties........ but not a big fan.

I'm with you Jax Sheridan's voice is so much more enjoyable. :-)

Just for a laugh someones 'Photoshop'version of me as was many years ago for my avatar :-D

I think the best record Cilla ever made was 'Alfie' I love it...

and of course Burt Bacharach :-D

After watching Sheridans performance had to listen to Cillas version

Sorry Cilla I preferred Sheridan :-D

I have liked everything Sheridan has done...very talanted

Sheridan Smith gave a good performance.When she sang Anyone who had a heart she looked very like Cilla, and I think Cilla Black would be pleased.
I look at some of the outfits and think 'I wore something like that' lol

Bobby's smoking gets on my boom booms ;-)
