Hell’s Kitchen is reportedly making a comeback in the UK after over a decade since its last airing. Gordon Ramsay is preparing to revive the popular culinary competition show, inspired by the success of the franchise in other countries.
The show, hosted by Gordon Ramsay, first aired on ITV in 2004, featuring celebrity contestants such as Amanda Barrie. After Gordon’s departure, the show continued for three more seasons, one of which included members of the public as contestants, until its conclusion in 2009.
Following his exit from the UK version, Gordon introduced Hell’s Kitchen in the US on Fox in 2005, where he has been a constant presence through its twenty-third season, which ended earlier this year.
Speculation arose last year about Gordon’s potential return with a revival of Hell’s Kitchen in the UK. Recent reports suggest that the show could return next year, with Gordon expected to resume his role as head chef. Additionally, there are considerations of opening Hell’s Kitchen restaurants in the UK, following similar successful ventures in the US.
According to a source from The Sun, fans of the show can anticipate not only the competition’s return but also the opportunity to dine at a Hell’s Kitchen restaurant in the UK. The source praised Gordon’s business acumen, noting the influx of customers to his restaurants in the US due to the popularity of Hell’s Kitchen.
Gordon recently trademarked the Hell’s Kitchen name in the UK, allowing its use for restaurants, entertainment, and media recordings. This move hints at the possibility of immediate restaurant openings following the show’s revival on ITV.
Building on the success of the US locations, including the flagship restaurant in Las Vegas in 2018, Gordon has expanded the Hell’s Kitchen brand to other cities like Atlantic City, Miami, and Washington D.C.
The Hell’s Kitchen restaurants aim to evoke nostalgia, with designs mirroring the TV show’s iconic elements, such as the red and blue kitchens. Gordon assures guests of an immersive experience, akin to being on the actual show set, with a promise of culinary delights like the famous scallops.
