Ashley Banjo and Loose Woman Coleen Nolan team up to put on a performance to raise awareness for Breast Cancer. Coleen has 3 sisters who’ve battled the illness, with Bernie sadly passing away from it in 2013. Having seen Ashley strip off and cause a stir for male cancer last year, Coleen thinks it’s about time a bunch of famous women did the same thing. Having recruited her gang, Emmerdale Actress Sally Dexter, Broadcast Journalist Victoria Derbyshire, TOWIE’s Megan McKenna, Veteran Actress Ruth Madoc, Liberty X’s Michelle Heaton, Comedienne Helen Lederer and DJ and Presenter Sarah-Jane Crawford, Ashley and Coleen secure a venue but have no song, no routine and no costumes to speak of. Their research takes in a visit to Paris and the Moulin Rouge, a venue world famous for featuring women bearing their breasts. With many of the women having been personally affected by Breast Cancer, the journey to getting on stage in front of 2000 people at Sheffield City Hall is a powerful one with tears and drama along the way.
