Believe it or not, Gordon Ramsay Holdings is finally going where Jamie Oliver has been for years and are now embracing technology. We all know that www.gordonramsay.com is rarely upadted with much relevant, which is why this website was started, but it seems that someone at GRH has heard the cry and is now Twittering on behalf of the Restaurant empire.

At the time of writing Gordon Ramsay Holding (who’s Twitter handle is GRamsayHoldings) has 325 followers whereas Jamie Oliver has 157,998! It is not the prettiest nor the best branded page, but it is a start!

Great New Gordon Ramsay Hell’s Kitchen Teaser – The Confrontation!

Author: Gordon Ramsay Unofficial Fansite  //  Category: gordon ramsay television, Hell's Kitchen, Main Content, The F Word



Here’s a clip that is simply called ‘The Confrontation’. It features ex-marine Joseph offering to take Gordon Ramsay ‘Out into the Car Park’ after copping too much abuse. Of all the people in the show, one would have thought that a former soldier would be used to this (have you seen Full Metal Jacket??!!) – maybe that is why he is an ex-marine??

Enjoy the clip and don’t forget to enter the competition to win an autographed copy of Gordon Ramsay’s latest cookbook – Great British Pub Food – go to the Plonker Club Forums for more details by clicking here. I think picking the winner of Hell’s Kitchen for this great prize just got a little easier!

Enjoy!

Sarah Symonds Following my Gordon Ramsay Fansite on Twitter

While doing some internet marketing for The Plonker Club – The Unofficial Gordon Ramsay Fansite, I’ve been using a Twitter tool with which I type in a keyword and it finds people who have that same word associated with their account. Imagine my surprise when I wake up this morning to find the program had not only signed me up to a Sarah Symonds Twitter feed, but this person had consequently signed up to follow the Plonker Club Twitter feed (which can be found at http://twitter.com/ThePlonkerClub). I checked and it contained a photo of THE Sarah Symonds and some of her tweets suggest that it is really her (tweets about upcoming interviews, a link to her website etc).
