Comedian Rhod Gilbert has said that there is 'humour' in cancer and that he will include material about it in his next stand-up shows.
He has already created 250 pages of material, written when he felt well enough to do so, but admitted that cancer is 'on his mind 24/7.' The 54-year-old announced in July that he had stage four cancer and was being treated at the Velindre Cancer Centre in Cardiff, where he had been a fundraising patron before the diagnosis.
He recently postponed a string of January tour shows after discovering he required additional surgery for gallstones and recurring gallbladder infections. Rhod told the Guardian in his first national newspaper interview since the diagnosis: “It does feel weird. I don’t know how much to talk about the cancer. I haven’t really worked out what to say.
