gcreptile 10,963 Posted January 10, 2023 Scottish comedienne who seems fairly prominent in certain circles. She had ovarian cancer, beat it, but then it came back. It's stage 3 and she says that it can be treated but not cured. So it's now being called "terminal". Like Jonnie Irwin, she seems fairly open about it all. Today's update is, "she wants to go out with a bang": https://nz.news.yahoo.com/janey-godley-terminal-125229998.html 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TQR 14,382 Posted January 10, 2023 One of my ‘just in case’ picks, but doesn’t appear to be in imminent danger. Could be this year or half a dozen in the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Old Crem 3,578 Posted January 10, 2023 Stage three cancer has a slightly higher than 25% five year survival rate. But I think she might have quite a reasonably fast growing version going by how she was clear on all scans and then it returned within months. So I’m not sure she will be making 2026 and the fifth anniversary of her diagnosis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean 6,309 Posted January 10, 2023 It is very difficult to say with her as she says contradictory things.She is dying though and things are clearly heading in the wrong direction at present. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I managed to fit her onto a theme team .If I couldn't have put her on there she probably would have been on tithe subs bench of the main team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulitzer95 12,558 Posted January 10, 2023 I really really have to hold myself back whenever someone mentions her on here. She's blocked me on Twitter twice in the last decade for simply disagreeing with her and I find her conduct online to be pretty odious. Meanwhile, this is the kind of racist shite that comes from her mouth. Then there are the Chernobyl digs: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean 6,309 Posted January 10, 2023 She is a bitch indeed and a hypocritical one too. I loved how she got offended the other week by people saying she is as funny as a burning orphanage after all the shit she says about people. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As you all know I’m rarely on Twitter as I don’t like it. She posted some tripe about the King getting a new gold coach for his coronation with the tagline that she would rather the money went to the NHS. Failed to mention the coach is being made and gifted by some Australian bloke. She is the class of celebrity who probably enjoys having cancer because it gets her a bit of attention. Everyone knows she was finished before the diagnosis. Cancelled as they say. But fair play to her for using her impending death. To her advantage. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,421 Posted January 10, 2023 For a bit of balance, I... also don't like her as she's a hypocrite and racist. Sorry. Wasn't a fan of her jokes either tbh. Don't think she'll be troubling the DDP for a while though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At least you tried. Let me have a go at restoring balance...I liked her ‘Trump Is A Cunt’ walk on his golf course and her stance on LGBTQ+ matters and…yeah nah I’m done, she’s racist and a hypocrite and her ‘comedy’ voiceovers are shite.

It may (and there again, it may NOT) amaze you to find out who wrote Clive Dunn's song GRANDAD. It was Herbie Flowers - the guy from SKY and the bloke what recorded the double bass (and electric bass) on Walk on the Wild side by Lou Reed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Everyone knows she was finished before the diagnosis. Cancelled as they say. But fair play to her for using her impending death. To her advantage. Yes, she does this a lot. It's a classic trick of the cyber Nats online. Around Christmas she posted photos of the Royals doing a visit where members of the public were lined up in the cold rainy weather waiting to meet them. She then posted a photo from Mail Online of the Royals walking "straight past" them in order to make some kind of us vs. them type tweet. She conveniently forgot to include the many pictures of the Royals stopping to talk to all those ppl for some time. Godley is a troll, and she knows exactly what she's doing. Zero sympathy for her when she claims that ppl are attacking her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I made the mistake of researching her tour - it's very short - on that basis I decided that she might be expecting to be going downhill like Franz Klammer in second half of the year. Now it's probably more likely that her tour is short because she's shit and no one wants to go and see her but anyway that's how she snuck onto my team. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also Goody was 27 when diagnosed, and was dead within 6 months because cancers multiply much fast when you're younger. Godley is 62. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
