He combines activities in the television, film, hospitality and food industries, and has promoted and hired various chefs who have apprenticed under his wing. He is known for presenting television programmes about competitive cookery and food, such as the British series ''Hell's Kitchen'' (2004), ''Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares'' (2004–2009, 2014), and ''The F Word'' (2005–2010), with ''Kitchen Nightmares'' winning the 2005 British Academy Television Award for Best Feature, and the American versions of ''Hell's Kitchen'' (2005–present), ''Kitchen Nightmares'' (2007–present), ''MasterChef'' (2010–present), and ''MasterChef Junior'' (2013–present), as well as ''Hotel Hell'' (2012–2016), ''Gordon Behind Bars'' (2012), ''Gordon Ramsay's 24 Hours to Hell and Back'' (2018–2020), and ''Next Level Chef'' (2022–present).
