Gordon Ramsey doing a game show.

Is this some kind of sick joke??

Poor Gordon having to take any old job because of the pandemic. He chose hosting a primetime quiz show on BBC1 over the job on the till at Asda presumably?

@GeorgieTheGorgeousGoat

Multimillionaires usually have incredibly high outgoings, plus needing to stay liquid to ensure the jobs of all his staff are secure for when they can reopen. It wouldn’t be just him affected if his businesses collapse.

Yes I really feel sorry for someone worth £140 million with all those outgoings! And he has a lot less staff to worry about as he sacked them all using the furlough scheme to pay their notice. metro.co.uk/2020/05/31/gordon-ramsay-uses-furlough-scheme-pay-axed-staff-notice-12781860/

@GeorgieTheGorgeousGoat I really don't agree with you I'm afraid.. Not less because I'm sure he wasn't worried about his bank balance whilst he furloughed his staff and also swanned off to his holiday home and flouting restrictions. I'm afraid you won't see me feeling sorry for him.

I like the contestants.

@sparklingbrook 🤣
You know it's not that easy getting a job in asda you know!

Actually that's a good point. I didn't make it through the online test a few years ago. Their loss.

It probably wouldnt be him that was affected if his business collapsed.
Did anyone notice Philip Green selling the big issue or noticing he had no pension when BHS collapsed?

God what a load of old shit this programme is!! And I'll watch any rubbish quiz show...

I seem to be watching Sandi Toksvig looking at some buildings should I switch over?

My DD and DS didn't get interviewed for Asda. One of them took it really badly.

My availability wasn't 24/7 (had small children at the time) so I'll never know if it was that or I genuinely have no customer service skills answering the questions.

The questions are piss easy.

Sadly, they are nevertheless not being answered.

@Exhausteddog big issue 😁

Right. DH has gone to bed so I am watching. It's looking a bit like The Cube so far

How could you not know who was in Fawlty towers 😁

Is the point just to make sure the whole lot doesn't collapse to the floor..

WTF is this shit?? DH and I decided to give it 5 minutes and, (god knows why), we're still watching in absolute horror. Who on earth commissioned this? The 'game' is boring and long winded and Gordon is a terrible game show host. He can't possibly need the money, so just why?????

What's at stake here-moneywise?

I'm loving this for all the wrong reasons 😂

What the fork is going on here???

It's made by his production company.
They also produced the program about the Savoy Hotel (in which he has a restaurant). And the one with Gino, fred and him.
And the one with... his daughter.
And the one about being a rich kid seeing poor people, in which... his son appeared (and got good press).

And some other things. Mostly featuring Gordon Ramsay.

Why is it all on the wonk?

Notwithstanding the thousands of cookery books he has too....

It's horrifically shit

@TheLaughingGenome 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
