The Hairy Dieters

Si King and Dave Myers, aka The Hairy Bikers, are back with a brand new mission. They're searching for healthy, delicious recipes created by ordinary members of the public, with the aim to persuade Britain to lose weight without losing their love of food. This beautifully photographed cookbook will tie-in with the new series on BBC2 which will kick-start with the Bikers' personal mission to shed some pounds with the help of the Great British public and showcase their brand new identity: The Hairy Dieters.

On the back of the success of their MUMS KNOW BEST tour, the Bikers will gather together members of the general public in their quest for healthy eating. Their 'Big Eaters' - the northern lads and lasses they selected to trim their waistline, will be the Bikers' fellow travellers and 'control group'. By testing out recipes and keep-fit tips, the people that Si and Dave meet on the way will follow them on their dieting quest.

Including a healthy eating plan with mouth-watering recipes for eating at home, eating out and of course, entertaining, this cookbook is filled with all of the dishes that have made Si King and Dave Myers two of the nation's favourite cooks. From perfect pies, curries and roast dinners, the Hairy Dieters prove that cooking without the calories doesn't have to compromise on taste.

Si King hails from North East England and is a big, blond bearded biker with an infectious laugh. His love of food was established at a young age when his father bought exotic ingredients back from his Royal Navy voyages.

Born and bred in Barrow-in-Furness, Dave Myers joined the BBC as a make-up artist and while travelling the world with hit TV series he picked up recipes with Si, Dave's travelling companion and the other half of the Hairy Bikers.
