BBC Hairy Bikers' Si King says 'finally' as he thrills fans who 'can't wait' over his and Dave Myers' latest project

Hairy Bikers star Si King couldn't hide his delight as he 'finally' got his hands on what is his and Dave Myers' latest project. The celebrity chef took to social media with a video as he confirmed that the pair's new cookbook has finally been printed and is ready to be sent to, or picked up by, fans.

Si posted a sweet clip of himself picking up a copy of Eat Well Every Day as he promoted its impending release. "Well, they've arrived," he said with a smile to the camera as he reached into a box off-camera. "Here they are, a little bit later than Dave's," he added as he picked up a copy of the finished book and showed it to the camera.

He then wrote in the caption of the post: "It’s finally here everyone! Our finished copies of Eat Well Every Day are here and don’t they look lovely? Filled with stuff you’d want to eat everyday of the week!" He added: "Pre-order your copy now, through the link in our bio, so it lands on your doorstep on publication day! Send us your pics with your copies, we’re so excited for you lot to have them as well!"

And fans were quick to say they 'can't wait' to get a hold of it for themselves. @jill.hedges.5 said: "Can't wait to buy a copy and try out the recipes....thanks Si." @traceyannekellett commented: "Husbands birthday present sorted! Thank you you gorgeous chaps ."

@twoodison wrote: "Thank you - can’t wait to try out the recipes." @theslycook shared: "You are both so lovely!! What a great book , can’t wait to take a look." @alisondunlop2013 replied: "Can’t wait to get mine , love you both and your amazing friendship , it’s truly special." @madelineclemens added: "Fabulous!! Love you both."

It comes just a couple of weeks after Dave opened up about his 'crappy' year while also delivering positive news to fans after his battle with cancer. The chef revealed back in May that he was undergoing chemotherapy after being diagnosed the disease but didn't specify where the cancer was found.

Dave revealed the news of his cancer diagnosis on an episode of the pair's Agony Uncles podcast and said that he didn't want to 'hide under a rock', but said he would be away from work and asked fans to 'respect his privacy' as he underwent treatment.

in a brand new interview, Dave has shared how he'll be hopefully returning to filming. Speaking on Tommy Banks' Seasoned podcast, he explained that he is still having chemotherapy for cancer after being diagnosed last year but that there are multiple projects going on for the Hairy Bikers.

"We've got a new book out next month, and it's healthy eating. It's not a diet book because Si and I are both… we've kinda lost the weight we need. But I've had a pretty crappy year really with chemotherapy and stuff, so it's eating well for life, really. And I think it's about eating for immunity, your heart, for fibre.

"And as you get older, well, young as well, it's important to eat well, but still have that knack of making food tasty so you don't feel as though it's a penance. So that's going out." He then added: "And then, all being well, I'm going to go back to filming in May."
