  • He’s fashioned the hair of the late Queen, Robbie Williams and Helen Mirren among many others - but after being diagnosed with bowel cancer five years ago, celebrity hairdresser Trevor Sorbie was forced to call time on his 50-year career. Today, Trevor reveals the incredibly sad news that he’s been given just weeks left to live, after doctors informed him that the cancer has spread to his liver and there’s no more they can do. He joins us alongside his wife Carole to look back at his legacy, and reveal how despite his prognosis, he's determined to stay positive until the very end.

    Such sad news. Always loved Trevor Sorbie, he’s such a lovely man, grown up watching him on TV. He’s done so much for cancer patients himself, styling wigs. Sending lots of love and blessings to him and his family……🙏🏼💜

I hope and pray I can learn all the lessons he has taught us in this 12 minute interview. Thank you Trevor for helping so many people and comforting us all. eta that must have been such a difficult interview to conduct but Cat and Ben did a wonderful job. I would have been in tears talking to this beautiful couple.

      If you are under 60, I suspect you have to ask for it and may have yo pay for it? You could always as a pharmacist and they can help you or advise you.

    as a stylist that trained in the 80s i grew up with Trevor Sorbie and Vidal Sassoon ,,,i looked up to them both as Gods of hairdressing ....and rightly so...one of my clients who wore a striking blunt bob was sat on a train in London and a man kept staring at her ...he came over and told her to congratulate her stylist as the cut was amazing he said ... that man was Mr Sorbie...how could anyone get a better compliment than that ? thankyou Mr Sorbie you are not only of the worlds best stylists but a true gentleman ....

    A lovely man. I remember seeing a talk that he gave about 15 years ago about a charity that he set up to help ladies with cancer get properly styled wigs that either matched their original hairstyle or gave them a whole new look. Where previously only very rough NHS wigs had been available, this was a massive improvement and also a psychological lift for the people receiving the wigs.

    Trevor is the hairdresser's hairdresser. Back in the day, us teenagers, both girls and boys, were OBSESSED with the wedge, it was our work of art, all the soul kids had to have one and we paid a lot of money to get it done well. I think many of us chose hairdressing as a career because of that cut. Trevor, you're a beloved legend, God bless you, sending so much love to you and your family.

    Couldn't watch the half of this, have to be honest, too emotional. I remember the man Trevor Sorbie, the name, the images and posters in hair salons and on tv, If you grew up in the UK in the 80's you'll remember. Synonymous with the words United Kingdom and hair fashion and the 80's. I'm so sorry to hear about his diagnosis. Luckily he has a loving family behind him. Like "Micro Live", "Video 'n Chips", "Dramarama", " Grange Hill", he defined what it was being British and having a talent in that century. All the very best Trevor. ❤

  • @babs5968

    I loved my wedge😂😂😂. He’s done so much in the past for cancer patients, setting up a charity to supply & style wigs long before his own diagnosis ( think it was following a family member not being able to find a decent wig). One of the original celebrity hairdressers. So brave & strong coming on tv to raise awareness.

How touching to see Trevor and his lovely partner supporting each other at this immensely difficult time. Much love to Trevor and his family.
