He said: “It is with great sadness that we announce the death of our client Doctor Janey Godley on 2 November.

“She will be hugely missed by her family, friends and her many fans.

“She will be remembered for her legendary voiceovers of Nicola Sturgeon during the pandemic, her hilarious and outspoken comedy, but most of all for just being ‘Janey’.”

Ms Godley revealed she had ovarian cancer in November 2021.

She was given the all-clear in 2022 but a later scan discovered signs of the disease again.

Born in the east end of Glasgow in 1961, Godley was a pub landlady before establishing herself on the comedy circuit.

She is mother to comedian and actress Ashley Storrie, the star of Three comedy Dinosaur.

In a video posted on X, Ms Storrie said Ms Godley had died at about 07:00 and thanked her “found family” for their support “throughout these last horrible days”.
