Hell's Kitchen

Do they tone down the f**king language when he does programmes over there? He had a record number of F-words in a single programme here and his latest prog - which I saw the other night - is called Gordon Ramsey's F-Word. He certainly doesn't hold back, yes, and the food, yes, usually looks good. Unfortunately, he also kills animals on his shows here. He did a report on horse meat - from choosing the pony to the dining table (and got a lorry load of horse shit on the pavement outside his restaurant for his troubles) and the week after it was fois gras - with plenty of footage of geese being force fed through funnels - I can't watch.

About

World-renowned chef GORDON RAMSAY is back for a third serving of the sizzling unscripted series HELL'S KITCHEN. Ramsay is putting 12 new would-be restaurateurs on the chopping block for a chance to win the ultimate culinary prize -- the coveted title of Head Chef of a new fine Italian restaurant at the Green Valley Ranch Resort and Spa in Las Vegas.

A former pro soccer-player turned Michelin starred chef, Ramsay is looking for someone with the potential to become America's next culinary star.

The heat is on and the "steaks" are high as the contestants endure Ramsay's hellishly intense culinary boot camp. Each week Ramsay will grill the ambitious hopefuls as they attempt to prove they have what it takes to run their own restaurant. He will slice and dice the contestants, keeping only those who possess the right combination of ingredients to ensure success. The contestants' inexperience, combined with the perfectionist Ramsay's acid tongue, may be a recipe for disaster, but for one aspiring restaurateur, it's the chance of a lifetime.

In this pressure-cooker environment, only one thing is certain: If the contestants can't stand the heat, they'll have to get out of HELL'S KITCHEN.

HELL'S KITCHEN has kick-started culinary careers for previous winners. Season Two champion Heather West is currently senior chef at the Terra Rossa restaurant at Red Rock Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, and Season One winner Michael Wray is head chef at Tatou, a restaurant and supper club in Los Angeles.
