The Hairy Bikers' Si King has revealed he is embarking upon an "exciting" new venture following the end of his latest series with fellow chef Dave Myers.
The locally-born chef and his fellow Hairy Bikers co-star recently announced that their Go Local series - which followed the pair as they tried out innovative food suppliers, local delicacies and restaurants
- was wrapping up after only eight episodes, one of which featured the North East. In a statement to fans they said: "Sadly, the series has come to an end.
"We hope you enjoyed the series and the journey we went through with each episode; we look forward to seeing you on your telly sometime soon." But it seems that fans will be able to see King earlier than that - and in person - because two weeks from the Go Local update the chef shared news that he will be taking part in a major food festival.
