Two very famous – and hairy – faces surprised shoppers at today’s St Albans market when they were spotted exploring the culinary delights the city has to offer.

One half of the famous duo, David Myers, confirmed that the pair were cooking up a new show set to come to screens soon.

Armed with a bag of food he said: “We’re filming a one hour cookery programme for BBC2 and the idea is that it starts with us at the market.

“We’ve filmed here before and it’s great. It’s a really big market and there’s a lot to choose from.”

His partner in the kitchen, Si King, said: “It’s great, it’s just like a normal market, not like somewhere like Borough Market.”
