A Place In The Sun's Jonnie Irwin has asked people to give those diagnosed with cancer the "same opportunities for fun and living" as everyone else.
The 48-year-old revealed last month that he has lung cancer which has spread to his brain. Since his diagnosis, he has gone on record as wanting others to treat him as a "normal human being" and not mollycoddle him.
Appearing on BBC's Morning Live, he said: "I have good days, I have bad days but the word cancer is absolutely loaded. I think the most terrifying word in the English language. As soon as someone hears cancer they just think 'Oh are you okay?'.
