Lawyers say Cliff Richard suffered 'profound' damage after he was named as sex offender suspect

Cliff Richard has suffered "profound and long-lasting" damage after being publicly named as a suspected sex offender, lawyers say.

The singer has sued the BBC and South Yorkshire Police in the wake of publicity about a police raid on his home - and says the BBC added "insult to injury" by entering its coverage in a "Scoop of the Year" journalism contest.
