I just found these two videos on the web – they are very funny. If you are offended by the language, I wonder why you are looking at ANY videos on the topic of Gordon Ramsay. I think these guys are a special for the next series of the F-Word or Gordon Ramsay’s Cookalong Live!

Guys, your really need to upgrade from Singstar to Rockband II!!!

Here is part two of what truly is Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares – Normal Person vs Gordon Ramsay

The also have a cool website – www.kamikazecookery.com which includes videos for sale and other apparel.

Have fun, even if they are taking the piss out of Gordon – I’m sure Chef Ramsay would love to get them into Hell’s Kitchen!

2009 may see Gordon Ramsay giving free cooking lessons in the USA and Australia and everyone is invited!

I was going back through some old emails and I can’t believe I missed this one. A few different sources, including Variety Magazine – spoke about a Live Cooking show coming up on Fox in 2009.

Apparently it will be modelled on Cookalong Live – a pet project of Gordon Ramsay that is at the core of his effort to get people back into the kitchen and cooking. This is also a resounding theme of his other popular show – The F-Word, Season 3 of which will be showing in the US on BBC America, Wednesday January 14 at 3pm.

While Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares is one of my favourite shows, Cookalong Live is a close second. If you don’t know anything about Cookalong Live – check out some of my previous blogs

Get A Healthy Dose of Gordon Ramsay which contains a great ad that Channel 4 in the UK used to promote the show.

Free Cooking Course from Gordon Ramsay has the intro to all seven episodes that just finished playing in the UK. Check it out and discover how you can learn to cook seven three course dishes in under an hour and have a bunch of fun at the same time. The scenes of Gordon going undercover to road test other top chef’s cooking classes is gold, as is himg oing into different kitchen to learn new skills – like making noodles, lamb kebabs and naan bread.

It’s a great show and I can’t wait until it comes down under!

Throughout November and December, it was only our friends form the UK that could take up this amazing offer of seven one hour cooking lessons with Gordon Ramsay – courtesy of Channel 4 in the UK. Now, many others are taking up the call to get back into the Kitchen via the Channel 4 Website (and the odd proxy server) or by other means.

Although the rest of use don’t have to feel the pace and pressure of live television, the cooking lessons (and preliminary lessons in preparation) really are excellent. This series is something I would be happy to pay good money for and I only hope my local foodie channel pick up this series. I really don’t think anything is lost by not having this screening live – so here is a teaser – to show you exactly what was offered each week – seven three course dinners, twenty one dishes plus lots of Gordon Ramsay intensity, passion and entertainment!

Enjoy

I somehow came across the Gordon Ramsay’s live cookalong series from Channel 4 on the web and it is briiliant!

It’s the same Gordon Ramsay energy and sense of humour, jammed into a live show, along with some great pre-recorded bits and a little mischief. Gordon wants to get all of Britain cooking so he has seven episodes where you make a starter, main and desert in under an hour. There is a little preparation involved and you need to have all ingredients on hand first, but all of the videos are available to make sure that you are fully prepared. Youtube also has some great clips of people trying to cook along to each episode.

Gordon Ramsay also goes ‘undercover’ to test drive some of the celebrity cooking courses with mixed results – a hilarious break in the frantic cooking schedule where Gordon gets full make-up , prosthetics and acting lessons to best fool his victims.

In all, it is a great show and some fantastic recipes if you can find it online somewhere! Something any true Gordon ramsay fan will love! Check out the great ad that was released on the internet (this is from the shows official youtube account – not ripped off illegally!)
