A service highlighting the riches of the daily press.

It's hard not to be impressed by Cliff Richard's face.

He really doesn't look 70.

The Daily Express offers a respectful take on the unveiling of plans for his new album. They have a picture of Sir Cliff, wearing a rather modern tech-fibre jacket with slash zip details.

It's captioned: "Perennial Young One."

No such mercy is shown in the Express's "competitor", the Daily Mail.

Their headline reads: "Cliff, still the Peter Pan of Pop (with the help of the airbrush)"

Ouch.

They display Cliff's real-life appearance next to an airbrushed publicity still.

Of course, the website .

Their airbrushed pic includes Lamont Dozier and David Gest.

The Mail asserts that Gest "looks younger" in the doctored shot, but it's really hard to see how the airbrushing has improved things.

The original photo might perhaps be included as course material in Celebrity Photoshop Masterclass.
