Gordon Ramsayβs interview on the Radio X breakfast show got off to a chaotic start when the celebrity chef dropped an F-bomb while listeners were still tucking into their cornflakes.
The Kitchen Nightmares star paid Chris Moyles a visit on Tuesday, but apparently hadnβt been aware of quite how live the show would be.
βThank you so much for having me on,β Gordon began, after the host joked about how βnervousβ he was to be interviewed. βIβm so fucking excitedβ¦β
βOh bad language already!!β the host responded, and when the cook seemed nonplussed, Chris pointed out: βYou just said the F-bomb!β
βYou said there was a bleep!β Gordon insisted. βYou said it was seven seconds behind!β
When Chris protested that this was, in fact, not the case, the chef added: βYou did! You sent me a text before I came on here saying βyouβre fine in case something slips outβ.β
βGordon, youβve not replied to a text from me since 2010!β the Iβm A Celebrity star then responded.
βIβm sorry!β Gordon said. βWhy didnβt you tell me?β
Still, while Chrisβ co-hosts might have been left apologising for the gaffe, it seems that at least a handful of listeners saw the funny sideβ¦
Chris has fronted Radio Xβs breakfast show since 2016, having previously hosted in the same slot on BBC Radio 1.
Last year, he took part in Iβm A Celebrity, alongside the likes of Boy George, Matt Hancock and eventual winner Jill Scott.
After leaving the show, Chris admitted heβd struggled sharing a close living space with Hancock, revealing he at one point even had to walk off set in an unaired scene.
