BBC Two - Hairy Bikers' Meals on Wheels, Series 1, Episode 4

Dave and Si hit the capital to spread their message while serving up snazzy snacks.

The Hairy Bikers ride to the rescue of Meals on Wheels. HRH the Duchess of Cornwall comes to see the work the Bikers have been doing and show her support.

The Hairy Bikers pull off a right royal coup as their personal mission to save Meals On Wheels reaches its climax. First stop, Dave and Si are back in West Yorkshire cooking up a storm with the Slaithwaite ladies - proving that with passion, commitment and drive it is possible to reinvent Meals on Wheels and give it a real future. 

Then the Bikers head back to Elmbridge, Surrey to find out if all their hard work there, trying to revitalise the council-run Meals On Wheels service, has paid off. And in a massive boost, HRH the Duchess of Cornwall comes to see the work they have been doing and show her support.

Flush from their royal visit, Dave and Si are on a roll and hit the capital. Serving up snazzy snacks to a host of guests from the worlds of entertainment, food and politics, they spread their Meals On Wheels message - we've all got to do our bit to save Meals On Wheels for grannies and granddads everywhere - for our parents and for our future selves!
