About a year ago, Gordon Ramsay appeared on a Channel 4 documentary (called Shark Bait) condemning shark-fishing as "cruel, tragic, barbaric and wasteful". Shortly afterwards, the Daily Mail published photos of Gordon Ramsay shark-fishing some 18 months earlier.
We now have a court case in progress, because Ramsay is claiming the photos were illegally obtained by his father-in-law, with whom he has fallen out. Chris Hutcheson was sacked, and there's clearly major shit between all parties in this family. As far as I'm concerned, the matter of how the photos came to be made public is of lesser importance than what they show. GR may well feel aggrieved that pictures he'd rather not have seen go to print are now in the public domain. They may or may not have been obtained illegally, and his father-in-law may or may not be guilty; I do not give a shit, though. What I do care about is that GR wanted us to think he was a good bloke, and stood for the right things, that he was respectable and honest. In truth, we now know he says one thing and does another, then gets the hump when caught out.
You caught sharks, Ramsay, and now you've been caught out! Deal with it, and don't expect people to look at you in the same way anymore because you're clearly not honourable. I suspected this anyway, because I do remember a while back that he was promoting some food with his name and branding, but it turned out to have been the cheapest 'saver' version with his own label stuck over the top!
I'd say you are the shark in all this, Gordon, but that would be an insult to sharks.

He still has that footballer's attitude, doesn't he?
