Janey

Janey Godley was one of Britain’s leading comedians. This film follows Janey on her 2023 Not Dead Yet Tour, after her diagnosis for ovarian cancer. Janey is touring with her best mate Shirley, and her daughter, comedian Ashley Storrie, who are almost as funny and frank as she is. As Janey tours around the country - mostly Scotland but taking in Belfast and London - intercut with her stand up show we tell the story of her extraordinary life, told with her trademark take-no-prisoners honesty and dark humour. Janey toured in 2024 with the film’s cinema release, dying in November.
