THE Hairy Bikers have been named Personalities of the Year.
The public chose Si King and Dave Myers as their winners at the Fortnum & Mason Food and Drink Awards 2023 for work published or broadcast last year.
The annual awards celebrate the achievements of current and emerging writers, publishers, photographers, broadcasters and personalities who encourage people to enjoy and explore more about food and drink through their work.
Big shout out to all those who voted for us.

The winner of each category receives a unique trophy from Mamou Mani, a Fortnum & Mason hamper and a bottle of the retailer's vintage champagne.
Dave Myers, who was diagnosed with cancer last March, said in a video shared by the luxury retailer: "To be honest, it's blooming brilliant and I think we're embracing every moment of it.
"Thank you."
Thank you everyone, it’s an honour ❤️ https://t.co/ouH22M2FXM
