Janey Godley says it would be 'cracking' if she dropped dead on stage ahead of last ever tour

Janey Godley says she think it will be 'cracking' if she drops dead on stage.
The comedian is about to embark on a standup tour while undergoing chemotherapy to treat her ovarian cancer.
The 61-year-old says that there is a risk the treatment leads her to vomit during a performance, but she says there's also a chance she dies during her routine, which she believes is 'the way to do it'.
Talking about the upcoming 'Not Dead Yet' tour, she told the Loose Ends podcast: "I am not dead yet. I have ovarian stage 3 cancer and I'm getting some more treatment.
"So by the time the tour goes I'll have been through some more chemotherapy.
"But I'm not a woman who dies on my knees, I'll die standing on my feet. So I'm ready to go on tour and if I happen to be on stage and just peg it right there I think that'll be cracking.
"It will be great. It's the way to do it."
Godley said she would be getting treatment for her cancer between gigs.
"What (comedians) need is that extra edge," she joked. "That extra edge is (a) will I die? (b) am I going to vomit with the chemo? Who knows?"
She also invited the audience to heckle her about her illness.
"I hope I walk out and people go 'How come you're not dead yet?" she said.
Just a few days ago, Janey reflected on the year she has had by sharing an emotional snap of her husband shaving off her hair back in February.
Shortly after her diagnosis last year, the comedian decided to shave her long locks off before she lost them due to the side effects of chemotherapy. At the time, she shared the emotional black and white photograph of her husband Sean's hands on her head as he used an electric razor to shave her hair.

John Lydon says he “loves Jedward very much”, despite them “nicking” his hair style
John Lydon has accused Jedward of “nicking” his hairstyle, but says he still “loves them very much”.You might be wondering to yourself now if Jedward’s distinctive hairstyle is really all that similar to Lydon’s own, but apparently he’s not the only person to have noticed some kind of similarity. In fact, some people apparently think that similarity could be genetic.“Let me clear this up once and for all”, he told the Irish Sun. “No, I’m not Jedward’s dad, but I am a Jedhead, and if I ever meet the lads all I want to ask is ‘why did you nick my hair?’”His affection for Jedward seems to have been compounded by the twins losing their mother to leukaemia in 2019.
