Scottish comedian Janey Godley has died in a hospice at the age of 63.

She had been receiving palliative care after being diagnosed with cancer, which forced to cancel her ‘Why Is She Still Here?’ tour in September.

Ms Godley, who found viral fame with her dubbed videos of Nicola Sturgeon’s Covid briefings during the pandemic, revealed she had ovarian cancer in November 2021.

Her manager Chris David said she died peacefully surrounded by her loved ones.

He said: “It is with great sadness that we announce the death of our client Doctor Janey Godley on 2 November.

“Janey died peacefully in the wonderful Prince and Princess of Wales Hospice in Glasgow surrounded by her loved ones.

“She will be hugely missed by her family, friends and her many fans.

“She will be remembered for her legendary voiceovers of Nicola Sturgeon during the pandemic, her hilarious and outspoken comedy, but most of all for just being ‘Janey’.”
