Much-loved and well-known clowns Peebo and Dagwood are facing their greatest health battle yet with doctors telling them their condition is inoperable.
"We're [both] facing issues with the liver. Two weeks ago they discovered a couple of extra spots on the liver and … they can't do anything for us," Peter said.
"We had that lesson for our 46 years on this planet, and when they say it's inoperable and they can't give you the treatment that you need you know you've run your race."Peter said the pair were putting up the good fight having received stents earlier this week, but felt they were fighting a losing battle."For us personally it's a big mountain to climb and I can't see anything coming out of it," Peter said.
He said the toughest part has been explaining his deteriorating condition to his 11-year-old daughter Millie.
