Life Through A Lens

Remembering Big Brother star Jade Goody, who died 10 years ago.

Back in the early 2000s, you couldn’t open a newspaper or magazine without seeing a story about reality star Jade Goody.

The dental nurse from south-east London had catapulted to fame on 2002’s Big Brother and the ups and downs of her life made headline news until her tragically early death from cervical cancer in 2009, when she was just 27 years old.

C4’s three-part series tells the story of Jade’s extraordinary life and features interviews with those closest to her, including her mum Jackiey Budden and ex-partner Jeff Brazier.
