On the whole, Ramsay makes me retch somewhat less than the execrable Harriott.

Serves 'em right

What a tough guy, eh. Shame he can't take it back. Famously ejected AA Gill and Joan Collins from his restaurant after Gill had likened him to 'a child of eleven' and - ouch! - a 'failed footballer.'

Well why would anyone take personal insults inside their own home/place of work if they are in charge. Kinda like AA Gill though but always thought he was more unknown than he seems to be

I'm fairly certain Gill had made the comments prior to the incident - probably in one of his food columns. If so he was merely doing his job, and Ramsey - as a supposed top chef - should've done his and served him.

Fair enough, but how many times have certain actors/musicians/whatever refused interviews with certain journalists due to past offence...a lot is the answer. Surely they should just get on with their jobs and promote their products too?
