Very macho - Dave Myers!? Guess it is all subjective Robbie
Just because a bloke has a beard and rides a motorcycle does not always make them macho. You should of seen some of the bikers in the parades along the West Coast. (Better not go there)
I don't know who the Hairy Bikers are, I don't watch TV. However he must of been a talented son of a gun to do great New Romantic make up for the stars and then go on to a succesful cooking show.

Very sad news, just watched a couple of episodes on the Food channel from 2009.
Lovely show, something i hadn't watched before.
A sad loss. R.I.P. Dave
They both met on the Michael Elphick series Harry where Dave was Make-Up Supervisor
and Si was location manager.

You could see the genuine affection between Dave and Si. I will miss their travel and cooking shows very much.
