Gordon Ramsay reacts in horror to American mum’s attempt at British Fish & Chips
The video in question is yet another one of those TikTok uploads from the American mum who has spent the last few weeks going viral for single-handedly butchering British food and drink.
“Stop it!” “What are you doing?” “You’ve lost the plot…”
These are just some snatches of dialogue from the Gordon Ramsay reaction video that’s doing the rounds online today.
The TV chef is infamous for his over-the-top outbursts, but given what he was watching when he recorded this footage, this was actually a pretty measured reaction.
The video in question is yet another one of those TikTok uploads from the American mum who has spent the last few weeks going viral for single-handedly butchering British food and drink.
Then, it was a terrifyingly bad attempt at beans on toast.
But her latest video – and she’s surely taking the piss, now – is a Fish & Chips failure.

The American TikTok user, who goes by the username jchelle36, starts her latest instructional vid by visiting her “local watering hole” (a beach) and scooping up a dead fish that’s been washed up on the sand, before scrubbing it in the sink and coating it with flour, egg, sugar and root beer.
She then pops it in the microwave, and proudly presents a finished plate of “British Fish & Chips” that Ramsay calls “puke.”
The chef spends the video groaning, scrunching his face, and tossing his head like a disgruntled horse.

This is the guy who once told someone to “jump in the oven” for cooking bad food, so this TikTok user has definitely done herself no favours by winding him up.

According to her profile, jchelle36 claims to live in the UK.
“You’ve never been to Britain!” Ramsay tells the woman during his reaction video, barely masking his contempt.
Out of these two – who do you believe?

Manchester has been named one of the ‘friendliest’ cities in the UK
Emily Sergeant
A new study has crowned Manchester as one of the ‘friendliest’ cities in the UK.
With reviews playing a huge part in the success of small businesses – especially in the hospitality and tourism sector – business insurance expert MoneySuperMarket has analysed more than 100,000 reviews of customer-facing businesses in over 100 cities worldwide to discover where the UK’s ‘friendliest’ places are.
Their new research reveals which cities nationwide attract the highest number of reviews that particularly highlight friendly staff and excellent customer service in their venues and attractions.
For each city, the reviews were analysed for mentions of friendly staff and excellent service.
Cities were then ranked by the percentage of reviews containing these markers – with the highest percentage earning the top spot for friendly customer service.
Manchester came in at a very respectable ninth place in the whole of the UK, with just over 50% of reviews mentioning friendly staff and service.
Other northern cities in the top 10 include Leeds at number six and Liverpool at number two, while looking at the global rankings, the UK dominates for friendliness – with four cities making the top 10, more than any other country in the world.
According to MoneySupermarket, the even spread of cities across the UK suggests that excelling in customer service is a national trait, rather than a local one.
European cities make up seven of the top 10 spots, suggesting that hospitality and friendly service are deeply embedded in the continent’s culture.

Bolton man sets Guinness World Record for most fish fingers eaten in a minute
Emily Sergeant
A man from Bolton has set a very unique world record.
Nathan Davies, from Westhoughton in Bolton, is on a roll – first he won £98,000 on ITV‘s hit gameshow The 1% Club, and now he’s a world record holder.
After telling the show’s host, Lee Mack, that he wanted to break a world record, the 32-year-old has followed through on the promise he made on national television by claiming the title for the most fish fingers eaten in one minute.
The dad-of-two managed to scoff down 15 fish fingers in 60 seconds.

Nathan chose fish fingers as they’re a staple in his household thanks to his two young boys, and after first testing how quickly he could eat four of them, he decided to go for the official Guinness World Record attempt.
“I decided fish fingers was achievable given that I’ve got a few less formal eating records, so it’s up my street,” Nathan explained of his world record attempt.
Despite his impressive effort though, Nathan admits he was still a little gutted about how many he managed to chow down in the allotted time, adding: “I think I could have done more if I had let them cool down longer, but just happy to have the record.”
Nathan says it’s a ‘bit strange’ to have an official Guinness World Record for eating fish fingers, of all things, but he is ‘very proud’ of it all the same.
