IT sounds like foul-mouthed superchef Gordon Ramsay bit off more than he could chew with four Lancashire lasses.

Judith Hilton, Susan Lees and Sandra Drummond, from Ramsbottom, and Justine French, from Edgworth, finished top scorers when they appeared on Ramsay's TV programme The F Word.

They won the right to prove their culinary class to celebrity diners at his exclusive Claridge's restaurant.

The results were screened last night, and the girls did us proud.

As for Ramsay, I don't think he quite knew what had hit him with our chirpy chefs. Mind you, he's probably got his own F-word for them now . . . Fabulous!
