Chesney Hawkes performs Dorset charity gig for childhood friend with lung cancer

Nineties icon Chesney Hawkes is used to selling out stadiums and performing in front of thousands of adoring fans but tonight he's playing a gig with a difference - in a small Dorset village.

He'll be performing in Cerne Abbas to raise money for one of his best friends - Vic Irvine, who owns a brewery in the village.

The pair went to school together and last summer, Vic was diagnosed with stage four lung cancer.

Ahead of the gig, Chesney's been speaking to 麻豆社 Radio Solent's Dorset breakfast show.
