Gordon’s got a big ego too!
CHEF Gordon Ramsay’s “sausage” is almost as big as his ego, his new co-star Gino D’Acampo reckons.
After an epic road trip with Ramsay and First Dates star Fred Sirieix for ITV’s Men Behaving Badly, Gino told how he got an unexpected eyeful.
But he was the only one to brave a nudist beach.
Baring all seems to be a running theme for the TV cooks, with cheeky Gino even flashing his meat and two veg to stunned diners in a restaurant.
The Italian chef said: “We went to a nudist beach but I was the only one naked, Gordon and Fred weren’t.
“Gordon’s got the biggest willy, though. I’ve seen it because we all stayed together and we’re all naked at some point.
“He’s got the biggest ego too, so everything has to be the way he says, whereas I don’t care about anything.”
TV cook Ramsay said: “I was in my pants and there was no way I was going further. There was a restaurant and Gino came out stark naked – in the nude – when there were people eating their spaghetti!”
COP killer Dale Cregan “faked” mental health problems for a “cushy” life in jail, a prison officer has claimed.
One-eyed Cregan, who shot police officers Nicola Hughes and Fiona Bone, was one of the most notorious killers under guard Neil “Sammy” Samworth’s care.
After going on hunger strike, the killer, 35, who lured his two victims by reporting a fake burglary in September 2012, was transferred to Ashworth psychiatric unit in Maghull, Merseyside, for five years.
However, he was hauled back to HM Prison Manchester, known as Strangeways, after boasting about his workouts and time playing snooker.
Today, Sammy exposes the four-times murderer as a fake.
He told the Daily Star Sunday: “What he did to those two police officers is just hard to fathom. It
‘He played the big man but there were bigger fish than him in jail’
was a heinous crime. Cregan played the big man but the reality is there were bigger fish than him in jail.
“He wanted an easy life so he played the mentally ill card. I know for a fact he wasn’t mentally ill.
“He was just forcing a move to Ashworth so he could have a cushy life in a maximum security hospital.”
Sammy, who spent more than a decade working at Strangeways, went on: “He was on E-wing and had a pretty cushy time of it – TV, Playstation and all that.
“He used to strut around thinking he was the big man but he wasn’t hard.
“He wasn’t a fighter. He used to get people to do that for him.
“Then he was moved to the Healthcare unit where I was and he hated it, because he didn’t have the kudos he enjoyed on the Cat A unit.
“He went on hunger strike – officially called food refusal – in an attempt to kid people he was mentally ill so he could get a cushy transfer to Ashworth.
“But I know for a fact he used to eat chocolate during family visits. There was nothing mentally ill about him.
“In the end he got his move and I read all the reports about him boasting about getting ripped in the gym and the rest of it.
“But when he went back to Strangeways earlier this year, he was nothing of the sort.
“He had put on weight, grown a beard and was just a sad little man who knew his fate.”
In May 2012, Cregan, who is serving life, gunned down Mark Short, 23, and in August, his dad David Short, 46. A month later, he shot dead PCs Hughes and Bone.
Sammy, 55, revealed one of Strangeways’ former officers was dad to one of the girls.
He said: “Cregan was a narcissistic sociopath and a horrible, bullying b ****** who loved the limelight and the headlines.
“But the truth was that he was held in utter contempt for what he did to those poor girls.
“Not only by the prison staff but the inmates as well.
“The dad of one of the girls he murdered, Nicola Hughes, used to be a senior officer at Strangeways and he still had a lot of friends there. They were devastated at what happened.
“Cregan still had his life. Those girls didn’t.”
In his time at the jail,
Sammy also rubbed shoulders with child killer
Mark Bridger while on remand over the kidnap and killing of five-year-old April Jones, who was abducted in Machynlleth, mid-Wales. Sammy revealed: “He was a sneaky, despicable creature. “While in prison he dreamt up a new line of defence saying he was having nightmares and that April was visiting him every night.” According to Sammy, Bridger made “very disturbing” revelations to an orderly he trusted, with that inmate telling him: “I’ve just had a chat with Mark Bridger, he told me what he’s done to that girl.”
The horrors of what Sammy, a dad, saw were by this stage starting to take their toll. He even found a prisoner hanged in his cell.
Haunted by violence, drug abuse, self-harm and the stench of death, the Yorkshireman quit the service in 2016 after doctors diagnosed him with post-traumatic stress disorder.
Now he has written a book lifting the lid on his time at the tough nick.
He added: “Long, excruciating hours are hard enough but it’s what you have to do and see on the job that affects you most.
“I was regularly stressed and often dreaded coming to work.
“I know so many who feel that guilt and push themselves to breaking point. It’s what I did.”
