“It’s so distressing. It’s very difficult to verbalise.'
, Dave’s co-host and close friend Si told of how he called his pal straight after learning of his diagnosis.
“I was driving. I had to pull over,” Si said. “It’s so distressing. It’s very difficult to verbalise.Si described Dave as “a scrapper” and “a fighter”, but admitted there were “certain points that I thought, ‘Where’s it going to go? What is happening to my friend?’”He also revealed he stayed with Dave during his chemotherapy treatment – which the star previously admitted had been “brutal” – with Si admitting it had been difficult to see his friend so unwell.
Si said: “It’s funny, you know, when you see somebody you love so much in so much distress, it’s very hard to know what to do. My character and personality is naturally, I just want to fix it. I just want to fix it. I get very distressed when I can’t.” Dave, who competed on Strictly Come Dancing in 2013, returned to TV last year and resumed filming the Hairy Bikers with Si last month.
