大象传媒

Caroline Aherne's brother has told 大象传媒 Radio 5 live鈥檚 Emma Barnett that he thought his sister would survive cancer.

The Bafta award-winning comedian died of lung cancer in July 2016, after previously surviving eye cancer when she was a baby, and bladder cancer in her later life.

Patrick Aherne gave a rare interview to publicise the coffee morning being held in aid of Macmillan Cancer, a charity which she strongly supported.

He said the moment he was told his sister鈥檚 cancer was terminal 鈥渁s the worst moment of his life鈥�.

鈥淚 never expected that to happen. I was being too positive. Caroline always deals with things.鈥�
