Hairy Bikers Si King has shared some “fantastic news” with fans weeks on from Dave Myers’ death. The TV chef died last year just under two years after he revealed he’d been diagnosed with cancer in May 2022.
Si recently shared an emotional update as he announced his final project with his late co-star. He revealed that the duo’s latest book ‘Fast and Fresh’ has been released. At the time he told fans: “Hello everyone, it’s Si here. Fast and Fresh from The Hairy Dieters is available tomorrow. Thank you if you pre-ordered, it’s hugely appreciated.
“It was a book that Dave and I really loved working on, so yeah there’s 80 delicious and easy recipes, easy as I know we’re all pushed for time these days. I don’t know how that happens but we just aren’t we.
