Former TOWIE star Joey Essex is attempting to get to grips with ground-breaking research as part of Cancer Research UK’s latest campaign.
The reality TV star donned safety glasses and a lab coat in a hilarious video which showcased his well-known catchphrases and his observations at how ‘sick’ science is.
He explained how the campaign will raise awareness about how research can save lives in the Stand Up To Cancer campaign.
Joey said: “One in three of us will be affected by cancer in our lifetime. You can make a difference.
“You can help us Stand Up To Cancer. Right now, share this video, make a donation and please get this message out there.”
