Cilla Episode Rating Graph

Priscilla White is a Liverpool typist with dreams of escaping the office and becoming a singer. It looks like her chance has come when she meets songwriter Bobby Willis, who claims to be in the music industry - so she's less than impressed to later discover his flash car is hired and he actually works in a bakery. Despite this inauspicious start, Cilla agrees to let him manage her, but will their arrangement still stand after her friends, a local band by the name of the Beatles, help her land an audition with genuine impresario Brian Epstein?

As Cilla's confidence returns, Brian Epstein gives her a second chance and convinces her to change direction and gamble on a ballad.

The success of her first single, 'Anyone Who Had a Heart' is soon followed by a second single, 'You're My World' which goes to number one. However she fails to break America, and her relationship with Bobby is beginning to have an affect on her success.
