Cliff’s own upbringing
Born in London in 1960 to Irene and George Manley, Cliff didn’t have it easy growing up.
The actor spent some of his childhood in care after his parents were made homeless.
Cliff has previously spoken out about how his parents had to turn down an offer from their landlady, who was unable to have a child of her own, to buy Cliff.
Speaking to the Milton Keynes Citizen, Cliff said: “When my mum came back from hospital with me, she wouldn’t give me or my sister up, so the landlady threw us all out.”
Without any other option, Cliff and his family had to sleep rough in Victoria Park in Hackney after being evicted. Later, social services took Cliff and his sister into care.
Why did Cliff leave Eastenders?
Cliff’s father spoke to the Milton Keynes Citizen of being proud of his son. And so he should be as Cliff has made a famous actor of himself.
The 59-year-old carved out a career in acting for himself after starting out as a stand-up comedian in the 80’s.
Cliff went on to play the role of Minty Peterson in Eastenders and now plays Fred in Call the Midwife.
Unfortunately, the character of Minty was dumped from the show in a cast shake-up in 2010.
