Chas Hodges dies aged 74

Chas Hodges has died at the age of 74.
The English musician – of Chas and Dave fame – passed away early Saturday morning (22.09.18) after a battle with oesophageal cancer.
A statement posted on their Twitter account reads: "It is with tremendous sadness that we announce the passing of our very own Chas Hodges. Despite receiving successful treatment for oesophageal cancer recently, Chas suffered organ failure and passed away peacefully in his sleep in the early hours of this morning."
Chas had previously opened up about his cancer diagnosis.
Speaking last year, he said: "I had five weeks of radiotherapy, five days a week, and saw the doctor on Tuesday and he said he doesn’t want to see me for three months – that’s when you know things are going alright."
Chas previously insisted undergoing chemotherapy hadn’t "changed his life at all".
He shared previously: "They told me to try to get 20 minutes of gentle exercise every day, so I’ve still been playing the piano and going around the allotment every day, and cycling there. It’s kept me going, but I haven’t overdone it. I feel fit.
"There hasn’t been one day I haven’t been able to do that. There were a couple of days during the chemo where I was getting a bit sleepy. I would just have a 20 minute nap and that worked perfectly. It hasn’t really changed my life at all."
Pop duo Chas & Dave rose to fame in the 1970s for their eclectic mix of music from the pop and folk genre. Their hits include ‘Ain’t No Pleasing You’, ‘The Sideboard Song’ and ‘Rabbit’.
