Living Every Second: The Kris Hallenga Story, BBC Two

Together with her twin sister, Maren, she founded the CoppaFeel charity to show millions of young people how to check for signs of cancer. Back in 2013, Kris made a film about her life for the BBC, and over the years that followed, she continued to allow the cameras back into her world. Following her death earlier this year, this new documentary includes unseen footage as well as interviews with those closest to her, alongside some famous faces.
