Cilla Black and her husband Bobby Willis stayed at the Brooklands Hotel, Holyhead Road
Cilla Black and her husband Bobby Willis stayed at the Brooklands Hotel, Holyhead Road, Coventry when she was appearing in " Cillas Spring Show". They paid 55 shillings a night. Some potted palms have been brought in and champagne is laid on at midnight. Breakfast is served at any time which is just as well because it was nearly 11am before Cilla emerged, sleepy-eyed but talkative, from the newly-created " bridal suite" which was once P.J. Probys room before he went bankrupt and had to leave England. Cillas feeling a bit bothered because yesterday was Frankie Howerds birthday and she forgot to send him a card. Bobbys bothered because the Rolls, which he drives himself, looks a mess. They had thought of staying at the Leofric but its fully booked up until the 20th.
Cilla asks for a boiled egg and stares fixedly at a picture on the wall of a naked lady. " Ooh, thats nice, " she says, " Lady Godiva isn t it?" Theres no interview as such - we just sit around watching Cilla munching toast. She said she was quite looking forward to the show as stage shows aren t so restrictive as television so I don t suppose anyone will mind if I say loo, will they? The hotel is also a farm and on their previous visits to Coventry - the first of which was a one-night stand at the Matrix - Bobby used to go riding there. " You d never get me on an orse, " Cilla says. " but I can drive, I passed my driving test in Blackpool three years ago. Blackpools like that...it makes you do things you d never dream of in a million years. The last time we were there we went mad on sauna baths and Swedish massage and golf. Me playing golf. Would you believe." Its 11.05 and Cilla excuses herself, she was supposed to be rehearsing at 11am.
