Last but not least: How to parry between stove and oven
Anyone who has ever visited the kitchen of a busy restaurant knows that the atmosphere there is in no way the same as the dining area. Even more so than on a building site or in a football dressing room, communication there is in the clearest language. British TV chef Gordon Ramsay is currently proving that the vocabulary acquired there is very difficult to put down.
Anyone who has ever visited the kitchen of a busy restaurant knows that the atmosphere there is in no way the same as the dining area. Even more so than on a building site or in a football dressing room, communication takes place in the clearest language - regardless of the price level of the establishment. British celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay is currently proving that the vocabulary acquired there is very difficult to shed: With his show "In Devil's Kitchen", he has now incurred the wrath of media regulator Ofcom. As the Guardian reports, Ramsay and his co-stars managed to use the F-word and different variations of it 115 times in the first 40 minutes of the show. "Although swearing has now become something of a trademark of the Ramsay style, the sheer scale of the misconduct in the current case is a clear breach of current broadcasting regulations," reads a statement. The regulatory authority was particularly surprised by the frequency of the registered swear words. In terms of the frequency and harshness of the language used, the programme broadcast on 30 January clearly overshadowed previous editions, Ofcom criticized. Even fans of the popular TV chef, who are apparently used to a lot by now, were surprised by the amount of swearing. At least Ramsay cannot be accused of not being authentic. By the way: Ramsay used to be a professional footballer.
