Hairy Bikers in Louth filming for new BBC cookery show.

HAIRY Bikers Dave Myers and Si King were filming in Louth today (Thursday).

Experiencing Louth for the first time, the celebrity cooks who travel on their motorbikes in search of great food, were in Louth filming for their new programme the Hairy Biker's Food Tour of Britain.

The tour of Louth was part of an episode focusing on Lincolnshire food.

Dave Myers said: "Louth is a real foody Mecca. It is fabulous and we would definitely like to come back. We have been cooking Lincolnshire Red Beef, cutting cauliflowers in the field which was a bit of a challenge, trying haslet and Lincolnshire stuffed chine.

"This afternoon we will be filming making Lincolnshire Plum Bread at Lincoln Cathedral."

The duo signed autographs for passers-by in between filming shoots.

The series will be made up of 30 episodes on BBC 2, possibly being aired this autumn.
