Hairy Biker Dave Myers has spoken about his treatment for cancer - and revealed if there’s going to be a new series of the wildly popular show. Dave, aged 65, has been undergoing chemotherapy and he revealed that the treatment has been ‘brutal’.
The TV chef, speaking on fellow cook Tommy Banks’ podcast, Seasoned, described the last 12 months as ‘crappy’ but added that he was hoping to start filming again in just one month’s time in a huge boost for those worried about his health.
Dave said that the Hairy Bikers - which comprises him and Si King - will be putting out a new book in April about healthy eating. He explained: “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 eat well for life, really. And I think it’s about eating for the immunity, your heart, for fibre. And as you get older, well, young as well, it’ important to eat well, but still have that knack of making food tasty so you don’t feel as though it’ a penance. So that’s going out.”
