Gordon Ramsay Eyes Hells Kitchen UK Reboot

has revealed he plans to reboot his legendary Hell's Kitchen UK. 

The celebrity chef, 59, who has recently opened a Hell's Kitchen flagship UK restaurant at The Cumberland Hotel in London, has said he is in talks with to bring back the hit series. 

Gordon shared the 'good news' for Hell's Kitchen fans as he teased the fiery reboot 17 years after it was cancelled. 

'I can tell you exclusively, I think we're gonna come back to the UK with Hell's Kitchen live next year', he told The Sun. 

'And it's about time because everywhere I go across the UK it's 'please bring it back'. So we're talking now with ITV to bring it back. And fingers crossed we'll have something exciting to keep you updated on.'

Reflecting on the show's earlier years, Gordon added: 'We've been filming out here [America] for the last three weeks.

'We've just finished Hell's Kitchen [US] season 25 – ITV gave birth to this thing twenty years ago when we went live. What the f*** they were thinking sending me live for sixteen nights with Al Murray…'

Hell's Kitchen first aired in Britain on ITV in 2004 with Gordon as head chef.

The reality cooking show proved popular with audiences, attracting seven million viewers during the first episode.

Gordon left the show before the second series and has been executive chef for the American version which has just completed filming its 25th series.

Subsequent UK series limped on with other chefs like Gary Rhodes and Jean-Christophe Novelli, but lacked that distinct, terrifying Ramsay magic.

Following the madness of the UK debut, Gordon launched the US version in 2005 where the show has enjoyed 20 years of success.

This catapulted him into American superstardom, with 'Idiot Sandwich' turning into a cultural catchphrase.

It comes after

The British chef, who is a proud dad to six children with wife Tana, gushed that budding chef Tilly, 24, 'has a really good palate' and would love to do a 'father-daughter duo'.

Speaking to the Daily Mail at the launch of his new Krude olive oil, Gordon insisted that 'business today is tough' but Tilly is worth 'investing in' after she has proved she can stand on her own two feet.
