Ruth had left Tony a message that said if he was to run the London Marathon again, she’d like him to do it for the charity Pancreatic Cancer UK.
The actor, who plays Bob Hope, lost wife Ruth in 2017 following her diagnosis of pancreatic cancer in 2015.
Instead of addressing the important moment, Bob chose to bury his head in the sand leading Cathy (Gabrielle Dowling) to lose her temper at his procrastination efforts.
Emmerdale’s Tony Audenshaw has opened up about fulfiling his wife’s dying wish for him to run the TCS London Marathon.
Tony has run the marathon 15 times, achieving a personal best time of 2 hours, 58 minutes and 49 seconds back in 2006.
