    Damn, that's a real shame. Was just watching the new series Go West and had hoped was through it, at least he managed one last season of what he enjoyed.

    That is so sad, like others have said, I’d hoped he was over the worst of it and on some kind of road to recovery. :-(

    That's very sad. Used to listen their Planet Rock show sometimes, years ago.

    Sad news - I didn't realise he was ill.

    I'm not a fan of TV chefs in general, but the duo were always more entertaining viewing than most.

    Oh, what awful news. Bizarrely, it was only last night whilst watching the program that Bea and I were contemplating that he must have been really ill (we were actually completely unaware of his battle against cancer). Rest in peace.

    RIP Dave

    He lived a couple of villages away from us in France, we saw him out and about a few times (usually at his villages annual fete).

    Must admit that I mainly watched the shows for the bikes, banter and scenery. Very enjoyable.
    RIP Dave

    Same. Saw a couple of the new series and although didn't know he had cancer you could tell he had been through the mill. Doing the show though I thought he must be on the up. The way his mate looked at him at times though I did wonder.
    Poor bloke but he definitely enjoyed his time here.

    Always came across as a lovely fella with no airs and graces, such a shame.

    One of the few TV cooks who I always enjoyed watching. There was so much camaraderie with Si, and an infectious enthusiasm for travelling, meeting and sharing with others.

    Bloody awful disease, I really liked the two of them, I'm not far off his age far too young. RIP Dave, we enjoyed the 'Ride and the view' with you sir.
