Catholic Church wants foul mouthed Ramsay canned

The Catholic Church wants foul mouthed British chef Gordon Ramsay either taken off-air, or moved to a later time slot.

Ramsay, who fronts a number of reality television series, is known for his often foul mouthed approach to contestants or those appearing within the TV shows.

The Catholic Church today submitted to a Government inquiry that the chef's show be either cancelled in Australia, or moved to a later time slot due to the language and themes used.

"There can be no excuse for vilification of this sort. We conclude that this episode should never have been aired on Australian television," the Adelaide Catholic Church said in a submission.

An inquiry into language on television is being held after several complaints against Ramsay's TV shows.

The chef's shows air at 8.30PM, with one also being broadcast at 9.30PM.

On one of Ramsay's shows, the chef swears over 80-times.
