Episode 2

onight they’re heading north to Slaithwaite in West Yorkshire, where Si and Dave helped a team of local volunteers start a brand new meals on wheels from scratch. They want to know if the group has managed to keep the scheme going but when they first arrive they find an ominously empty kitchen. It soon turns out the team has moved to better premises in the local church where Si and Dave find preparations in full swing for the weekly delivery. There’s some sad news about the larger-than-life recipient of the very first meal, 92-year-old Christine Clay, but Si and Dave take comfort after a chat with her daughter, Fran. Spirits are then lifted with the results of a secret survey the Bikers have conducted to discover what the other local old folk make of the meals they get delivered. Just how important the service is to the recipients comes across loud and clear leaving the ladies and Bikers moved and emotional. Si and Dave always wanted other local communities to be inspired to start their very own meals on wheels so they’re thrilled to discover a pub along the valley in Golcar now cooking meals that are delivered by volunteers around the village. In the mood for a celebration they gather friends old and new, including 97-year-old Hilda Clegg, for some slap-up food and a good old dance. Hairy Bikers Meals On Wheels: Back On The Road was co-produced with The Open University.
