Ramsay nearly blinded in kitchen accident

Gordon Ramsay is recovering after a kitchen assistant accidentally splashed boiling hot stock into his eye.

The incident occurred as foul-mouthed Ramsay trained a group of amateur chefs for the latest episode of his new British TV show The F Word.

Thankfully the trainees ordinarily worked as Accident and Emergency doctors at London's Chelsea and Westminster Hospital - and they immediately took quick action to save his eyesight.

The culprit, Lucy Bingham, says: "I'd got knocked as I was moving a pan of stock and it fell on to the hob, which is blindingly hot, and it splashed back up at him.

"I thought: 'It's Gordon Ramsay, ace chef, and I've blinded him.' I was really worried.

"I immediately went into doctor mode and thought: 'Sod the kitchen' and rushed over to him. I think he was startled and shocked but thankfully he was fine. I got away without any swearing from him because I think he found it quite amusing how I flipped so quickly into being a doctor."
