Pierre is back in the building…and taking to the sky! With Bob on holiday in Skegvegas, our favourite celebrity is without his trusted camera man…and actually missing him! There’s competition on board the bus as Darney- cancer patient of the year 2005 is sat next to Pierre- a force not to be reckoned with! As Pierre prepares to become a pilot, he attempts to reconcile the situation with Darney…and even manages to pose for a photograph together…but Pierre has other plans on his agenda! We soon discover Pierre has been telling a few porkies…is he really cancer patient of the year 2008 as well?! After a long day at the airfield, Pierre chills out in bed, watching his widescreen telly and wait a minute…is that Debs I hear in the background?

You simply can’t sit through an episode of Coronation Street these days without someone ringing you and disturbing the peace….as Mr. Peter soon discovers! A phone call from the hospital completely disrupts his evening television schedule as our favourite cartoon comedian finds out he has to go back to hospital. Looks like Come Dine With Me is off the agenda then. Once there, Mr. Peter has a Pic line put in and soon finds his precious locks falling out once more, which is a bit of a pain really seeing as he’s got a cut and blow dry booked in for next week! Sadly for Peter, an unwanted villain returns…and he’s more evil than ever…this time he’s trying to steal Debs….and the show! Will Brian pinch Mr. Peter’s fair maiden and take his place as our favourite cartoon host? Somehow, “The Brian Show” just doesn’t have the same ring to it!

Get ready for the tour of your life as Peter “Pierre” Wilkinson, cancer patient of the year 2007 AND 8 no less, gives us a lively look at the Sheffield TCTU ward and even demonstrates some of its wonderful facilities…although you might want to look away for that bit! Grubs up in the kitchen as “Pierre” gives us a run through of its uses, whilst causing five pounds worth of damage, no thanks to camera man Bob who just can’t keep that lens straight! Peter also reminds us all that its pizza night on a Tuesday and if your lucky you might even get…wait for it…a curry. Prepare to get more than you bargained for when our wannabe presenter gives us a peek of the fancy en-suite bedrooms, where, a call from mum interrupts the “cool” flow. On to the chill out room now, where Pierre finds himself making small talk with an unusual character, who, surprisingly manages to maintain his posture amongst the chaos of keyboard playing and telling Bob off. It’s a case of “over and out” as the tour comes to an end and Mr. Pierre Wilkinson, cancer patient of the year 2007 AND 8, but now an out-patient, returns to his dressing room back at the “studio” with Bob not far behind, fetching him ice cold drinks… and altering camera angles to make him look fancy…maybe in a few years time!

17th June Hallam FM - Chance to take a look around the Hallam FM studios meet some of the DJ’s and (if you want to) take part in a ‘live’ interview about you, your treatment and what you’re up to now. If you’re interested let Nathan or Caroline know
16th August Triumph Tripple Challenge - [...]

As glitzy and jam packed as any good television show, this is Rosa TV, a new addition here on jimmyteens, hosted by Rosa Coker Burnett, who, by the looks of things, is destined to be a TV star. First on the agenda is an interview with Rosa, as we learn about her experience with cancer and how she occupied her time in hospital, visiting the school room and playing Simpson’s games being top on the list! In between talking, Rosa flicks through her sacred journal, bursting to the brim with riddles, poems, stickers, pictures and memories of her time in hospital. We are also introduced to a line up of furry friends- Poppy the rabbit, George the bear with glasses, Monkey, and Snuffles, who is feeling a little camera shy and won’t sit up with the others. Like any good television crew, we get a change of scenery and a break from the studio as Rosa walks and talks whilst taking the real Poppy for a run around in the surrounding woods outside her home.

A hilarious animation by Peter Wilkinson, telling us the story of “Mr. Peter”, and how a trip to the opticians doesn’t quite go to plan when we are introduced to “Brian the brain tumour”. With a catchy soundtrack and his invisible girlfriend ‘Debs’ on his arm, he’s ready for anything. First stop, radiotherapy, where our favourite cartoon host gets a shock when he loses all his hair, although we soon discover bald is a very good look for Mr. Peter. After treatment is all over, as per usual, he just can’t stop singing about Debs…it must be love!

All the way through to “type 7” on the Bristol Stool Form Scale- a recognised medical chart used to classify and describe changes in human bowel habits, this is certainly not an animation for the faint hearted! From sausages to snakes and pellets to post-kebab toilet nightmares, we get a run down, quite literally, of what’s normal and what’s, quite frankly, a little bit loose…

Watch Mr. Syringe reaaaally dancing, like, as he bops to music, until, like, he gets reaaaaally tired……like. A fantastic animation from the Sheffield Animation Group, showing that syringes can have fun too! So could you see me really dancing, like?

Tuesday 13th May 3pm-4.30pm - Afternoon tea on TCTU to welcome new fundraisers ‘Nabarro LLP’
