Gordon Ramsay cleared over puffin killing

2 months ago 17th Sep 09:29

TV chef Gordon Ramsay has been cleared by British broadcasting officials after he provoked outrage by cooking and eating puffins on his show The F Word.

Bosses at British network Channel 4 were inundated with complaints after viewers watched him on location in Iceland, killing and skinning the birds and serving up their hearts - a delicacy in the country.

But watchdog Ofcom has ruled the bird is not protected in Iceland and its consumption is a popular part of the nation's diet.
