Gordon Ramsay has joked that his new cooking show will be called Morse Code to explain away the bleeps that will cover his swearing.
The outspoken chef – known for turning the air blue – has a new ITV programme called Culinary Genius which will air during the day.
He told Radio Times: “Nobody told me it was daytime. I’ve never done that before.”
Asked if he would keep the expletives in check, Gordon, 50, quipped: “They’re going to have to call it Morse Code. Bleep bleep bleep!”
The cook said that when it comes to making television he likes to mix documentaries with “the big shiny-floor” projects.
He said: “I love documentaries. It’s really important for me to do a big passion project now and again.
“I do the big shiny-floor thing but every time I do one of those, I then need to do a documentary.
“And the next one is probably the toughest I’ve ever done. I can’t say much about it now but it involves wearing hidden cameras and it was hard.”
This week’s Radio Times is on sale on Tuesday.
