Chef Gordon Ramsay reflects on the reality of drug use in the restaurant industry.
Chef Gordon Ramsay’s two-part documentary will take us into the reality of drug use in the restaurant industry.
Chef Gordon Ramsay will infiltrate and investigate the drug industry in a two-part documentary on the UK’s ITV channel. The film is part of the Crime & Punishment series, which reveals dark aspects of other facets of society.
The teaser shows the police force’s efforts to eliminate drug traffickers.
Regarding the film, Chef Gordon Ramsay explained that he wanted to understand why drugs could be so rampant in the restaurant industry. “I wanted to understand the world of drugs ever since I lost a key chef at my restaurant in Chelsea, and I wanted to find out why drugs have become an epidemic, not only globally but especially in the culinary industry. I challenge anyone to watch this film without reconsidering their drug use. I don’t want any more loss of life, and I don’t want this to remain in the shadows. I was there to help,” Chef Gordon Ramsay expressed, lamenting the loss of a head chef and close friend who had a promising future ahead of him. He added: “I’ve seen drugs countless times in my career and been offered them in many ways; drugs are everywhere. Yet I didn’t think this problem was this serious until this happened. It’s a wake-up call. Right now, I’m extremely worried about my staff. 750 people in London. And that’s my responsibility.”
