Cilla Black joins Coronation Street - sort of

ITV are screening a tribute to Cilla Black in which she'll fulfill a lifelong dream to appear in a very special Coronation Street scene with Rita and Norris in the Rovers Return.

The One and Only Cilla Black will air on Wednesday 16 October at 9pm on ITV.  It's hosted by fellow Corrie fan Paul O'Grady.

Cilla's never made any secret about being a life-long fan of Coronation Street.

Rumours in 2010 that Cilla was joining the show were quashed.

    I would rather like to see Cilla as landlady in the Rovers, if only short term. Would have been better than dragging back that old drag queen Liz.
