Davis, who played receptionist Dawn in the UK sitcom, says the cancer has spread and it's "too late for chemo".
Actress Lucy Davis, known for her role as Dawn Tinsley in the UK version of The Office, has disclosed that she is battling incurable breast cancer. The 53-year-old, daughter of comedian Jasper Carrott, shared her diagnosis on Instagram, stating that her cancer had metastasized to her bones, specifically her spine, hip, and ribs.
