Lauren Laverne given ‘all clear’ following cancer diagnosisBy William Warnes, PABroadcaster Lauren Laverne has said she has been given the “all clear” after undergoing treatment for cancer. Laverne, 46, said on Instagram on Sunday that she will be “back to work” on Tuesday’s The One Show after “taking some time off to get better”. Laverne revealed her cancer diagnosis in August, saying at the time that it had been caught early and she “expected to make a full recovery”. She will begin recording episodes of The One Show and BBC Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs in November after being absent from the studios for around three months. A BBC spokeswoman said earlier in November: “We’re delighted to welcome Lauren back to the studio this month for The One Show and Desert Island Discs, with new episodes airing on Radio 4 from 1 December, and we look forward to welcoming Lauren back to BBC Radio 6 Music in the new year.”
