For tonight’s (October 3) episode of Celebrity Gogglebox, EastEnders star Bobby Brazier teams up with his father Jeff Brazier to help raise money for charity.
The upcoming episode will serve as a Stand Up To Cancer special.
Ahead of the show, the father-son duo discussed how the disease has heavily impacted their family. Bobby’s mum, reality star Jade Goody, died of cervical cancer at the age of 27. At the time of her death, Bobby was only five, while his younger brother Freddie was just four years old.
