The F Word is a cooking show hosted by Gorden Ramsay set in a restaurant (though actually a studio) with a 50-60 guests. Next week will air the first episode of the third series.

In the first series every week he would take on a group of trainee (commi) chefs and would whittle them down tournament style until he came up with an ultimate winner. This was interspersed with other segments including street reporting by food critic Giles Coren. The second series it changed slightly with Gordon inviting groups of amateur chefs in and they would compete based on the number of customers willing to pay for their meals. It seems that its the same concept that has been carried over to the third series which is where Jenny and I step it.

I’d applied to be part of the F Word guests in season two but was unsuccessful but applied again for the latest series. I wasn’t expecting anything but to my surprise late last week I got a call to say I’d been put on the reserve list. So I had to turn up (and I could bring a friend) at 3.30 this afternoon at their studios hoping that someone was a no show. Happily we got in! To say that Jenny and I were excited is a bit of an understatement.

I’m not sure when our episode is going to air but can’t wait to see how it turned out.
