Gordon Ramsay TV show to be a video game

Hell’s Kitchen due out this summer

TV chef Gordon looks an odd colour at a celebration of his new restaurant Gordon Ramsay At The London in Los Angeles.

Video star: Gordon Ramsay

Gordon Ramsay’s hit TV show Hell’s Kitchen is to be turned into a video game.

Players will seek to impress a computer version of Gordon, 41.

And it is thought the chef will give an acid-tongued retort if it's not up to scratch.

The game will also feature Gordon’s favourite recipes, which players can to try out in their own kitchens.

The title will be released by Canadian firm Ludia Inc. for the Nintendo Wii and DS systems, as well as for PCs.

‘We are thrilled that Granada, a highly respected and successful global media company, is entrusting us with the Hell’s Kitchen property,’ says Ludia Inc. CEO Alex Thabet.

‘The show has millions of viewers, and the game will bring the fun of the kitchen boot camp experience from the TVs to the PCs and consoles of this rapidly growing audience.’

Hell's Kitchen is due to hit the shelves this summer.
