TWO catering students from Darlington College of Technology were given a taste of the food industry by celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay.
The chef, renowned for his colourful language, offered Shaun Elliott and Thomas Barnes some tips while they were helping on the BBC Good Food Show.
Both students are studying for an NVQ general catering qualification, and were at the show gaining work experience with venison supplier Richard Elmhurst, who runs the Round Green Venison Farm in Barnsley.
Shaun, 16, of Chilton, said: "We saw Gordon walking by and grabbed him for a photograph. He was really relaxed and pulled our hats off."
Thomas, 17, of Newton Aycliffe, said: "He did not swear once."
The pair helped Mr Elmhurst by greeting and serving customers, cooking venison, monitoring the fridges and setting displays.
