Glasgow Barras and Rangers' home Ibrox to feature in Gordon Ramsay show this week

Glasgow is set to return to our screens this week alongside none other than Scotland's most famous chef.

Gordon Ramsay's final episode of Future Food Stars will be airing on Thursday, May 25 with the final taking place in the east end of the city.

During the show, each week 12 candidates, with food or drink ventures, must take on a food-based challenge and impress the Scots chef with one person who didn't quite make the cut being removed from the show.

Travelling all over - including Scotland - tasks include building brands from scratch, running a pizza business, hosting a brunch and scarily, running Gordon’s own restaurant. In the end, Gordon will give away a staggering £150,000 to the winner to help them on their way to cooking success.

In the episode description the BBC write: " It’s the final, and Gordon puts the remaining three businesses under scrutiny. Who will win his £150,000 investment? Who will be his Future Food Star?"

And in the promo clips, the father of five can be seen standing in Ibrox Stadium - home to Rangers with it being teased that the Johnstone-born star "wants his finalists to create a new product and social media promo, which they will have to present at a launch event in Glasgow."

As previously reported by Glasgow Live, when Gordon, the chef’s connection with Rangers stems from his childhood playing days when he appeared in Rangers youth teams and dreamed of forging a career at the club. However, injury cut this particular dream short, and Gordon has gone on to become one of the world’s most famous chefs.

As well as filming in the football stadium, the east end is also featured showing off another iconic venue - the Barras with a clip at the end of the penultimate episode as well as the Cranside Kitchen by the Hydro.

The show, which is on for an hour, will air on BBC One at 9pm on Thursday, May 25.
