The Ramsay of the Kitchen Nightmares is much different from the screaming lunatic of Hell's Kitchen.
The episodes of KN he is very polite and calmly explains to the owner or chef that "you can't serve spoiled food." Scary that he would have to even say that. He was direct, but not beligerant like he is in HK. In KN he is simply trying to help struggling restaurantuers to become sucessful. Most of them ignore his advice and keep on doing what hasn't worked before.
Little wonder he is an highly paid chef in the UK as it seems most cooks don't know their arse from a teakettle.

HI...My wife introduce me to this progran and i see the want to be cooks burning themselves i have a good cure for this. If you burn yourself with grease,water,steam or fire apply a good layer of regular white toothpaste (as soon as you can)you will not blister or scarr,wash it off with cold water at least 2 hours later apply another good coat,it cools off your skin and feels better also.The next morning you wont beleave the results.So anybody that does this reply me with your results IT REALY WORK NO JOKES HERE....mitchberube424@hotmail.com
