Award-winning TV writer and comedian Caroline Aherne is recovering from treatment for lung cancer.

Macmillan Cancer Support confirmed that the Royle Family star, who has previously had bladder and eye cancer, would speak at an appeal to improve cancer care in Manchester on 26 June.

Aherne, 50, said of the appeal: "I've had cancer and my brother's had cancer and we know how it affects people."

She has starred in The Mrs Merton Show, The Royle Family and The Fast Show.

Hope she makes a full recovery. It is unusual to have so many primary cancers

Poor woman. I didn't know she had had other cancers too.

I hope she recovers fully too.
