Sir Cliff took legal action against the BBC over the live broadcast of a South Yorkshire Police raid on his home in Sunningdale, Berkshire (right), in August 2014, following a child sex assault allegation. Announcing his ruling today, High Court judge Mr Justice Mann said the BBC had infringed the star’s privacy rights in a ‘serious and sensationalist way’. The veteran popstar – who was previously given £400,000 by the police in an out-of-court settlement last year – was today awarded £210,000 damages, which is set to rise at a later date. A teary Sir Cliff (left) hugged friends after the judge gave his decision and told reporters he was ‘choked up’, adding: ‘I can’t believe it. It’s wonderful news.’
