Following Dave Myers’ cancer fight, the Hairy Bikers are back with a fresh new TV programme.
Dave, 65, and Si King, 56, have revealed that they will return to our screens with a BBC show.
The eight-part series will explore the gastronomic delights of Britain’s west coast, with the team celebrating the food and people along the route.
According to the synopsis for Hairy Bikers Go West, “they will travel from north to south discovering the producers, farmers, and chefs who are contributing to a modern British culinary revolution.”
‘Each week they’ll ride across one stunning part of the west coast and explore the changing area through restaurants, recipes, producers and inventive new food entrepreneurs.’
The best friends will begin in Scotland and ride down to Devon, passing through places significant to their past, from where their friendship began to connections with their family history.
Their voyage will start on Bute Island and will take them via Dumfries and Galloway, Lancashire, Merseyside and the Isle of Man, North Wales, The Severn Estuary, and Somerset.
This comes after Dave said that he had returned to work following his cancer fight, which he announced last year, joking that he would be a ‘baldy biker’ for a while.
In following updates, he claimed to be “kind of doing alright,” while treatment was still “ongoing,” and he greeted 2023 by claiming cancer was “something one learns to live with.”
Just months after opening out about his ‘brutal’ chemotherapy treatment, in which he claimed he’d lost’so much weight’ and suffered with losing his appetite, the celebrity is resuming normalcy.
‘It’s unbelievable to be back. Every breath I take now is just refreshing and fabulous. It varies really what food I’ve been having,’ he said.
Dave added to The Mirror that the beloved duo are back to filming a new TV series, saying ‘it is a huge step back to normality’.
‘It’s a work in progress and it’s all going the right way. I’m getting there and I’m back on the bike,’ he shared.
