This January, for the first time Channel 4 unites its three titans of cuisine – Gordon Ramsay, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall and Jamie Oliver – in a two week season of programming that challenges the people of Britain to think before they eat. Hugh confronts the nation’s supermarkets, Jamie exposes the over-industrialised food industry and Gordon goes LIVE as he proves fast food can mean good food. The season will also include two Dispatches specials.
Hugh’s Chicken Run presents Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall with his biggest challenge yet, as he goes behind the chicken shed doors to change the way Britain consumes chicken. From supermarkets to takeaways, Hugh wants everyone to go free-range. Starting with the residents of his local town Axminster, and Tesco supermarket, Hugh goes on to challenge all the major supermarkets to change their ways. In this hard hitting series, Hugh learns about the reality of modern poultry
production and sets up his very own intensive farm – a living set which reveals just what happens to chickens that are then sold for less than the price of a pint of beer. Read More »

Sources have hinted that Jamie Oliver’s production company are seriously considering buying the chain, revamping its greasy spoon menu and then making a reality TV show about the process.
An insider said: “It’s a tempting proposition for a TV company, as you’re dealing with one of Britain’s best-loved brands.”
