Janey Godley announces she is going back on tour with her 'Not Dead Yet' show following cancer battle

Janey Godley has revealed she is delighted to be going back out on tour after a 'tough time' and has named her tour 'Not Dead Yet' after receiving messages from trolls wishing her dead.

The Scots comedian took to Twitter to say that she would be back on the stage with her new show next year after she had to take a break from performing after she was diagnosed with cancer. Janey was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and has been battling the disease and updating her fans throughout as she went through operations and treatment. Following gruelling chemotherapy sessions, back in June the funny woman announced that her latest scan came back clear.

The 61-year-old is a stand up comedian, however during the coronavirus pandemic she became well known for her funny clips and voice overs impersonating the likes of Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon and former Prime Minister Boris Johnson, despite her huge online presence, she said she's excited to get back on the stage.
