He told host and chef Matt Tebutt: “It’s fantastic to be back and what a way to celebrate Christmas here. We’re going to be doing a coffee and hazelnut cake, it’s a symphony where nuts meet coffee. Honestly, it’s so good for Christmas, the angel Gabriel has wafted across your tonsils.The chef had joked in the preview of the programme on BBC Breakfast that he was “still breathing”.
Myers, who appeared on the programme with King, later added: “It’s lovely to be back. It has been a rough year, I can’t pretend otherwise, and there were some times when I didn’t think I would be here for Christmas. “I’ve got to give a shout out to the doctors and nurses in Birmingham who put me back together, the surgeon who got me walking again and nurse Marion who, before my chemo, brings me cake in. Best banana bread ever.
“But it is lovely to be back. Si’s been looking after me, filling my freezer with mince and dumplings. Being back on Saturday Kitchen is great, I think the first time we were here was 15 years ago.”struggles they’ve experienced over the years.
