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

Here are the third and fourth videos in the now infamous ‘Little Gordon Ramsay’ video series. It is put out by caterer.com and now almost defines viral marketing!

When I accessed the third just prior to posting this blog, it was just over a thousand hits shy of 400 000. Not bad considering the first and second ones have over 720 000 and 550 000 respectively.

So here it is, in my opinion not quite as good as the first two, probably because the shock value has subsided a little, but good none the less!
