Where was Ramsay at the time?

Don’t even think we didn’t see what you did there.

“Reality” shows immediately become non-reality when a camera is turned on. There may be no script, but everyone knows what they are supposed to say and what attitude to take for a Good Show. I only watch Ramsey when he’s working in a part of the country I’m familiar with, just to see if I know the restaurant undergoing his scrutiny.

I do wish Gordon wouldn’t keep taking off his shirt - that alone may have caused some illness, if not death, among viewers. He is the Donald Trump of the food world. Sadly, it would probably please them both to hear that…

None of which means _he_ is a bigot. Is Rod Stewart to be condemned for supporting Celtic?

He shot a pastry chef in Reno just to watch him die.

In fairness, that pastry chef was a DONKEY!
