Gordon Ramsay: A puffin bit me on the nose

Celeb chef was hunting the bird in Iceland

Monday, 28 July 2008

Gordon Ramsay was bitten on the nose by a puffin during filming for The F Word.

The celebrity chef, 41, was hunting the bird in Iceland's Westman Islands for the TV show.

And his prey got revenge by pecking his schnoz.

‘They put make-up on my nose and Jesus Christ it looks bad,’ he tells The Sun.

‘I keep saying one of my kids punched me. I’m too embarrassed to say it was a puffin.

'We had a licence to cull 1,000. I didn’t realise how difficult they are to cook, but they’re very tasty!’

Gordon needed three stitches after the attack.

  2. Okay
  3. Good
  4. Great
  5. Excellent

What a shame he is culling the birds when the news this week revelled that the puffin population is dropping - the uk population has dropped by one third.
