Ramsay filming The F-Word in Ireland

Celebrity chef charms locals with polite ways. By Angela Sammon - 11/04/08

Gordon Ramsay may be famous for his foul-mouthed ways but there was no sign of bad behaviour when he was filming in County Clare yesterday.

The celebrity chef – star of The F World, Ramsay’s Kitchen Nighmares and Kitchen Nightmares USA – positively charmed the locals of Ballyvaughan, Co Clare during filming for the new season of The F Word.

Ramsay was diving off the pier in Ballyvaughan in search of sea urchins. He arrived to the area by seaplane before chartering a fishing vessel.

"He was lovely, very nice and polite," said one local woman.
