After the sweary celebrity chef’s ratings tanked, BBC managers are considering cancelling another of Gordon Ramsay’s series.

According to The Mail on Sunday, his team is concerned that Future Food Stars may not be renewed after the second season.

His game show, Bank Balance, has already been cancelled.

Some at the BBC have concluded that Ramsay’s ‘face no longer matches with UK audiences,’ according to a source close to the chef, who has found TV success in America with Hell’s Kitchen and MasterChef.

Despite airing on BBC1 at 9 p.m. on Thursdays, Future Food Stars has a weekly audience of less than a million viewers.

Young food entrepreneurs compete for a £150,000 investment in the show.

Horizon, a BBC2 documentary about insomnia, attracted more viewers than the inaugural episode of Future Food, which garnered 1.9 million viewers on March 31.

‘Gordon loves Britain; it’s his home, and he was ecstatic to be working with the BBC and entertaining the British public,’ the person continued.

‘It’s a great letdown for Gordon, who is Mr Cookery Show. Nobody can figure out why it didn’t work.’ Bank Balance was also decommissioned.

The 55-year-old hosted the show, in which contestants competed for up to £100,000 by stacking bars on a balance board after completing a series of questions.

When it premiered in February 2021, it got 2.7 million viewers, but by the end of the ten-show series, that number had dropped to 1.5 million.

Both series were produced by Ramsay’s television production company, Studio Ramsay, which has had success with ITV’s Gino’s Italian Family Adventure, starring chef Gino D’Acampo; the reality show The Savoy; and Gordon, Gino, And Fred: Road Trip, starring Ramsay, Mr D’Acampo, and French master maitre d’ Fred Sirieix.

The company was founded. Mr Ramsay, who is worth an estimated £200 million, has made his teenage daughter Tilly famous by starring in her own CBBC show, Matilda And The Ramsay Bunch.

She later appeared on the BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing.

Last night, the BBC said: ‘We are very proud of Future Food Stars, which is attracting a great young audience on BBC iPlayer. We start filming the second series in June.’
