Hairy Biker Dave has died.

Yes it was heartbreaking to watch tonight.

Si not so thank you predictive text

I’ve a strong suspicion this last series was Dave’s swan song. So is very protective of him.

In tonight's episode of the series filmed last year, Dave got to drive a steam train.
Si said "It was nice to see me best mate driving the train. It was just lush to see a smile on his face, because he's had a rough time."
😥

Such a loss. RIP. Always seemed kind and caring.

Si and Dave are up for the Fortnum &Mason Personality of the Year Awards. Please vote for them. A fitting memorial to a lovely man www.fortnumandmason.com/food-and-drink-awards-enter

I've been very sad to hear of his death SO GLAD they got to make the last series which is superb and a testimony to the genuine friendship Si and Dave shared

Very sad indeed. Love The Hairy Bikers

I'm watching an old episode now, they are in the Southern US. Almost in tears.

Great recipes, straight forward to follow and frequent use of the word “ unctuous !”
Dave seems like an old friend, sadly missed.

So very sad. Loved the 'Hairies' programmes. Si must be devastated.
Rest in peace Dave. 🙏

Very sad. Will miss Dave a lot on TV. Loved their cooking programmes.

I'm a bit shocked too, as I also thought he was on the road to recovery. I enjoyed watching their programmes, they were both so gentle and funny. My sympathies to his friends and family.

One of those special people who brought joy and happiness to the world. What an example you were.Thank you Dave.

So so sad, Rest peacefully Dave. You will be sadly missed. Love to all your family and of course SI. XX

RIP Dave everyone loved him😩

Very sad. He came across as such a lovely, genuine bloke - they both did. Saw the tribute from Si. Made me cry. RIP Dave.

A lovely man. The Hairy Bikers always seemed as if they were nice, genuine, ordinary people with amazing talents for cooking and people skills. Condolences to Dave's family and to Si. He will be very much missed.

It seems most of us thought he was getting better, me included, I suppose he kept it quite private although we all knew he wasn’t well, I too have been watching the latest touring the North West, they were deff two very close friends it is so sad .

Very sad. Such a lovely man. RIP

So very sad he had fought so hard to beat the cancer.

I thought he'd be OK. I am beyond words. RIP Dave, you brought so much joy.

Such a lovely man. What a shame.

Very sad, remember seeing them live,both so very funny. I watched one of the new series,and he looked so frail. He'll be missed by many, RIP.

Lovely warm guy, loved their recipes. I thought he was getting over his illness. RIP.
