Nice obit for Dave.

An unlikely pair to become such a success. The housewives loved them in the series on British food.

Great ambassadors for motorcyclists too.

Si once said ,,they were more like a married couple because they spent more time together than they did with their wives .
Loved watching them on their travels , huge loss to the nations foodies .

Dammit. Another one taken far too soon.

My better half cooks a lot of the Hairy Bikers recipes, so I guess we'll raise a drumstick to him (their Piri Piri Chicken recipe is awesome on the BBQ) when it's the season for such things.

They have done some brilliant programmes over the years.I’ve particularly enjoyed their American adventures and the Scandinavian ones too.downloaded And started watching their last series last night.we don’t realise what we have till it’s gone.

The thing with those 2 blokes was they were down to earth, described themselves as cooks not chefs and just made tasty grub, nothing pretentious about them and never did the shouty premadona type stuff either.

easy watching
