Fred Sirieix explains Gordon Ramsay's absence from new travel show
- Gordon Ramsay was not included in the new series featuring Gino D'Acampo and Fred Sirieix, which follows their previous collaboration.
- Gino announced his decision to stop filming the previous series due to scheduling conflicts and contract complications.
- The new show, titled 'Gino and Fred's Emission Impossible,' will focus on eco-friendly travel and is set to bring humor as the duo explores Austria.
In October 2024, Gino D'Acampo and Fred Sirieix launched a new travel series in Austria, leaving out their longtime collaborator Gordon Ramsay. This decision followed Gino's announcement in March 2023 that he would no longer participate in their previous series, 'Gordon, Gino and Fred's Road Trip.' Gino explained that the choice stemmed from difficulties in coordinating schedules and the complexities of their contracts, which he found increasingly stressful. He emphasized the importance of maintaining their friendship over contractual obligations. Fred Sirieix clarified that Ramsay's absence was not due to any personal conflict but rather his busy schedule, which includes opening multiple restaurants and managing his family life with two young children. Ramsay's commitments in the United States also contributed to his inability to join the new project. Fred and Gino expressed their desire to continue their travels and invited Ramsay to join them whenever he could. The new series, titled 'Gino and Fred's Emission Impossible,' aims to explore eco-friendly travel while providing entertainment. The duo plans to visit Austria, recognized as the greenest city in the world in 2020, and will focus on convincing Gino, who loves luxury cars, to embrace a more sustainable lifestyle. Overall, the shift in the show's dynamics reflects both personal and professional changes among the trio, highlighting the challenges of collaboration in the entertainment industry while maintaining friendships.
