Ah! The legendary Sir Clifford...
Hard to imagine now, but he was nearly 'banned' from TV in the early days (shades of Elvis!) due to his suggestive movements!
Three faves from this early period...
'Move It' (one of the first British rock records that wasn't cack! And in common with Bill Haley's 'Rock Around The Clock', was originally intended as the B side!)
'Don't Talk To Him'
And not listed here, the B side of 'Summer Holiday'...'Dancing Shoes'...

Not to mention the time he was banned from entering Singapore for having hair that was "too long" !! The ole rebel !!

Yes...true!
Una revealed it (very tastefully) in her biography some years ago...Cliff never denied it...
Which leads me to the old joke...
The only thing he entered after that was the Eurovision Song Contest...!!

Sue Barker?
Possibly...but both have kept suitably 'tight-lipped' about their tennis sessions together!
There was also tons of speculation with Olivia...

I don't know how he manages to keep a lid on it all...!!
For the last few years he has been 'living' with his manager...a man!
Will we ever know the truth about that...?!!

Maybe it's an Eric and Ernie 'living together'. Or maybe not!

Sigh - rumours schmoomers !
Cliff is extremely open about his love life - he has written many autobiographies. He never dated Livvy - she was too busy bonking his Shadows guitarist Bruce Welch. Livvy and Cliff remain best friends.
Sue - it was a genuine relationship. She was very open about it in her autobio.
Cliffs only other big affair - other than Una and the famously un named older woman pre christianity - was with Rick Parfitt's (Status Quo) wife.
As for his manager - yes they have shared a house for over 20 years - actually closer to 30 these days. Its a 9 bedroom mansion in Esher, Surrey - and Bills wife lives there too. The place is way big enough for 3 people to live in (and the doggies).

He wasn't too popular in the USA.
