Actress Lucy Davis, known for her role as receptionist Dawn Tinsley in the popular BBC sitcom "The Office," has been diagnosed with incurable breast cancer. The 53-year-old shared her news on social media, expressing her gratitude for the kindness and support she has received from both friends and fans. Davis, who announced her diagnosis just over a year and a half ago, stated that she is determined to make the most of the time she has left in a "fun" manner.

Her father, comedian Jasper Carrott, praised the overwhelming support they have received and expressed hope for her future.

Davis, who has previously appeared in films such as "Shaun of the Dead" and "Wonder Woman," shared a skateboarding lesson video as a way to lighten the mood.
