The death of Scottish comedian Janey Godley has been announced by her daughter Ashley following a cancer battle

Ashley posted a video on Twitter this morning (November 2) sharing the news that Janey had died surrounded by her family. A fearless LGBTQ+ ally and staunch advocate for trans rights, her humour and compassion broke barriers and lifted up voices that needed it most. Back in September, Jane, 63, confirmed that her battle with terminal ovarian cancer had taken a turn, leading her to cancel a tour to undergo treatment.
