Sir Cliff Richard has thanked his Irish fans for always making him feel special as he embarked on his 60th anniversary tour. “Dubliners have always made me feel welcome here but that was very special, thank you very much,” he said after receiving rapturous applause at Dublin’s 3 Arena on Saturday night. The crooner said the welcome was extra special because he had not played at the 3 Arena, formerly the Point Theatre, on the River Liffey, for years. Sir Cliff denied the allegation, was never arrested and in June 2016 prosecutors announced he would face no charges. The crowd erupted into song as Sir Cliff sang Mistletoe And Wine, From A Distance and Dream.
