CLIFF BOOKS IN HIS FRIENDS

The veteran singer, who in his book My Life, My Way speaks for the first time – as we revealed – about his close friendship with former Roman Catholic priest Father John McElynn, showed he is still a hit with the ladies too.

Sir Cliff, 67, partied with long-term chums Gloria Hunniford, Cilla Black, Patti Boyd and co-author Penny Junor. “Cliff was in his element,” says our mole.

“He invited only his closest friends, many of whom are fellow showbiz veterans, and spent the whole night reminiscing about old times.”
