BBC Hairy Bikers star Dave Myers has to learn to walk again after cancer chemotherapy

TV presenter Dave Myers has admitted he has had to learn to walk again after undergoing chemotherapy. The 65-year-old, who is best known as one half of the Hairy Bikers along with Si King, was diagnosed with cancer in May last year.

The TV star has been giving fans updates on his treatment ever since but has now admitted the full effects that chemotherapy had on his health. In a recent podcast with Loose Women's Kaye Adams, Dave explained that treatment impacted his walking - and that he feels he has had to re-learn the skill.

The BBC star, who is also known for his appearance on Strictly Come Dancing and a number of television cookery series, admitted that he has a positive outlook after chemo, reports The Mirror.

Opening up to the How To Be 60 with Kaye Adams podcast, Dave said: "I really have no symptoms of the cancer, it's the chemotherapy.

“It's neuropathy in your feet, so it's hard to stand. So I've had to learn to walk again properly."

He continued: "I'm still having chemotherapy, but what I'm finding out now is you have to live with the cancer. It's like a diabetic who needs insulin and constant care. That's the state I'm in now.

“By God, the chemotherapy doesn’t half age you quickly. Because your balance goes, so for someone with a motorbike that’s a disaster and my walking has been affected quite a lot, really.”

For fans of Dave and The Hairy Bikers, the star had more good news as he will soon be back on set working on the hit BBC show.

He revealed: “I’m going to go back to film this May, and we're going to film around the chemo. That's just the way it is really. One doesn't have an option
