Here are the interviews (or links to them when clips are not available) for all of the Gordon Ramsay interviews since he arrived in Australia five days ago. Gordon arrived on Thursday for the Good Food and Wine Festival in Melbourne and has a host of other engagements as well as a holiday with his wife Tana planned over the next month – culminating in his appearance and Sydney’s Good Food and Wine Festival. His interviews have caused some controversy – but not as much as his comments during his live cooking demonstrations!
Gordon Ramsay’s Sort of Press Conference for Good Food and Wine Show Melbourne
Gordon Ramsay was forced to defend alleged statements that he made about interviewer Tracey Grimshaw after her interview with him aired on Friday night in Australia. Media outlets have gone wild with various quotes from the Great Chef which apparently were made during his cooking demonstrations at the Good Food and Wine Festival, aimed at his host who he did take the mickey out of a little during the interview.
On both interviews today he was forced in some small way to clarify that he was just joking with a friend (Tracey Grimshaw – the show host) despite allegedly being called by the head of Channel Nine. As usual a bunch of people at the show expressed their outrage at what Gordon said at the live cooking demonstrations, some silly enough to claim that their children were offended (why would they bring them along knowing what the language was probably going to be like – let alone pay at least $25 a head for the pleasure)?
Channel Nine were equally as hypocritical by actually airing the interview on Sunday morning and then talking amongst themselves about the outrage over what Gordon Ramsay allegedly said. If they were really that concerned they wouldn’t have aired any more interviews – the love the hype an controversy more than gordon himself.
As soon as the interviews are available on the websites, we will post the links!
Gordon Ramsay, as part of his Tour Down Under will be appearing on Channel Nine’s Today show on Friday morning, from the Melbourne Food and Wine festival. No doubt that he will have the censors on the edge of their seats. Here is what happened last time!
Gordon Ramsay will also be appearing live on variety show ‘Rove Live’ on Channel Ten, we’ll provide links if they are made publically available!
