Dynamo set to make shock comeback for heartwarming Christmas TV show one year after he 'killed off' his alter ego by being buried alive


Steven Frayne, who famously killed off his famous alter ego Dynamo last year, is set to make a return this Christmas.

Diagnosed with Crohn's, an inflammatory bowel disease, while in his teens, Steven had to have half his stomach removed and lived in excruciating pain for years. The performer revealed he was still dealing with the side effects of his steroid medication, including arthritis affecting his hands, knees, toes, ankles and neck. But Steven was still battling mental health struggles, and told The Sunday Times that his wife encouraged him to get help after 'self-harming incidents', and he began therapy in November 2020.
