Sir Cliff Richard: BBC pays £2m in final settlement after privacy case

Posted on September 4, 2019 by pogowasright.org

BBC reports:

Sir Cliff Richard will receive around £2m towards his legal costs from the BBC after agreeing a final settlement following last year’s privacy case.

In July 2018, the star won a High Court case against the broadcaster over its coverage of a police raid on his home.

However, the singer said he was still “substantially out of pocket”.
