After that, the 55-year-old challenged his contestants to create a feast in the forest. This meant that they had to forage for ingredients and cook on open fires.

During the first part of the show, Gordon showed the contestants how to fillet a fish, but with a twist.

Gordon decided to do the whole thing blindfolded, much to the shock and delight of the contestants.

However, not everyone was as impressed.

Some viewers of the show accused Gordon of simply “showing off” by filleting the fish while blindfolded.

“There was no point to the blindfold. Showing off for the sake of it,” one viewer said.

“Wait, aren’t they supposed to be blindfolded for this task? Or was Gordon just showing off? Lord,” another tweeted.

Too much of this show is @GordonRamsay showing off. Would like more of their business,” a third wrote.

“Not Gordon showing off by filleting a fish with a blindfold! I can do the same pls,” another laughed.

“What a load of [bleep] just wasted an hour watching that crap , just a rip-off of The Apprentice, totally garbage,” a third ranted.
