Comedian Paddy McGuinness and his lively bunch of mates join Gordon in the kitchen to try and impress the F Word diners. They're not your average kitchen team – more Motley Crew than Michelin chefs and it's clear from the start that they like a laugh. But if anyone can reign them in Gordon can.
First celebrity in the kitchen is Coronation Street star Wendi Peters, and she brings along her sister, husband and mother. Geri Helliwell takes up Gordon's recipe challenge. Janet Street-Porter is back, promoting British veal, and Gordon looks into a deep-sea delicacy: sea urchins.
