Cliff Richard - should he give it up?

[paulagil]

Just been watching him on This Morning (whilst pretending to work from home and surfing Mumsnet).

AIBU to think he should call it quits? His face is full of plastic and his movements are stiff. He's certainly never been a Mick Jagger but Mick still has the energy and fire of a 30 year old, despite looking so haggard (and we all know why THAT is).

So Cliff, what are you doing? You were very pretty when you were young. But now I think it's time to put on the slippers.

When when when will MN get a [vomit] emoticon?

[EldritchCleavage]

I did my best, but that OP would not listen to sense. All that Boris talk just got her going. She went off to watch vids of him on YouTube.

[cloggal]

I can't accept that there is such a thing, Eldritch. I won't.

[EldritchCleavage]

If you think Cliff fandom is bad, have a mosey over to the I fancy Boris Johnson one. It will chill the very marrow of your bones.

[MorgauseIsNotBlinking]

WelshWereRabbit I'm glad you enjoyed it but I'm afraid it will haunt you forever.

You know when people see the face of Jesus or Mary in household objects? I saw Cliff in a scrunched up chamois leather yesterday. Should I put it on ebay?

[paulagil]

Nigella means Operation Facelift. Everyone knows that.

[Onesleeptillwembley]

I think you mean operation Fernbridge, nigella.

[WelshWereRabbit]

Can I just say that you tube clip is the funniest thing I've seem in ages. Thank you for sharing!

[cjel]

NIGELLA - seriously?

It has to be Brucie for me I never liked him in the 70s either, his ego is so big now its crazy

[MaryZygon]

Bloody hell, Nigella.

You don't fancy getting that comment removed? I'm sure you didn't mean to say it.

[SPsWouldCatFishNev]

Geez Louise! How did I miss that.

I don't have a clue what you mean but then again I don't go around stating people look like child abusers.

Fucking hell.

[LetZygonsbeZygons]

Nigella . cant believe you said that.

[raffle]

Good God Nigella

[YoureBeingASillyBilly]

" I always thought he looked like he had a few skeletons in the closet IYKWIM."

no. I dont know what you mean. I think we all know there is no 'look' that gives away a child abuser. what a ridiculous, ignorant comment.

engage brain before posting nigella.

[NewtRipley]

Nigella

That's horrible

He has spoken about his sexuality (he is open about the fact that he lives with a man but thinks beyond that it's none of anyone else's business what he does in the bedroom0. He has also campaigned for same-sex marriage.

So you are well wide of the mark in implying he is a paedophile or abuser.

Reporting your post

[Chippednailvarnish]

I can't fucking stand Cliff, but casting aspersions about operation Yewtree is uncalled for and in very bad taste.

[SPsWouldCatFishNev]

I'm.starting a petition to rename Christmas to Cliffmas

[bluebayou]

Can"t stand him or McCartney . Why don"t they just pack it in .

[LaRegina]

Ooh Macca would be permanently retired so he can go off and wobble his head somewhere private.

Brucie could stay as long as he just reads the autocue and stops trying to make jokes. He's harmless isn't he.

But Cliff should stay. Christmas isn't Christmas without him!

[ppeatfruit]

forgetmenots The other thing that pisses me off about Cliff is that he seems to have an ego the size of Gt. Britain; he never sounds humble or unsure of himself. You're right Eldritch I must stop listening to R2 .

[mitchsta]

Brucie would have to go for me I'm afraid. He's always given me the creeps...

[EldritchCleavage]

I live in a Cliff-free zone-apart from SP's posts, I never come across him. You lot need to review your entertainment choices if Cliff is intruding into your lives. Stick to BBC Four and Radio Three. Job done.

[SPsWouldCatFishNev]

Maybe he reads MN and his return is because of me?! You lot are so welcome

Sing on Cliff, sing on

[forgetmenots]

Good argument ppeat.

I suspect with Christmas around the corner the Cliff resurgence will make me change my mind.
