Gino D'Acampo's TV return revealed as chef launches new series after being axed by ITV
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) GINO D'Acampo's TV return has been revealed, as the chef launches a new series after being axed by ITV. The former This Morning star had been lying low since being removed from ITV programming in February. 3 Gino D'Acampo's TV return has been revealed, as the chef launches a new series after being axed by ITV Credit: Rex 3 Gino is set for a telly return too, with a show named An Italian In Malta Credit: Rex In February, Gino was accused of sexually inappropriate behaviour over 12 years and ITV has vowed not to use him in future. The married dad of three denies the claims. In May, his restaurant chain was saved when Upmarket Leisure — the company controlling the five venues — was bought out of administration — in a £5million deal that saved 400 jobs. Now, Gino is set for a telly return too, with a show named An Italian In Malta. Gino will embark on a travelogue to the Mediterranean island, and it will air in September. Of the new show, Gino told the Mirror: 'The idea is to show everyone all over the world a bit about the country - I want to find the perfect restaurant, the perfect recipe, the perfect spot, I will speak to the local people, what they cook and how they cooked 200 years ago.' And the TV chef has another project quietly going on in the background too - an acting project in Ireland. Gino will be playing the part of a mechanic for the scripted role, and continued to tell the publication: 'I am playing a part in a series, my part is this Italian-American mechanic that is always in trouble with the police or always in trouble with the law and then he became a mechanic and he's helping the main character in the show. 'This is acting now, I'm not becoming a real mechanic, I'm useless at stuff like that.' The Sun has contacted Gino's representative for comment. Gino D'Acampo makes string of smutty remarks during radio interview as he returns to public eye following ITV axe His TV return comes after he made a smutty return to the public eye — by making lewd comments about women. The Italian, 48, said during a radio interview that men do not like skinny women — as they want to have 'things to grab'. Responding when one of the presenters, named Nicole, said that she regularly dieted, he said: 'Only dogs like bones. 'A real man, he wants the meat, you know, the things to grab. Don't get too skinny, otherwise it's like, no.' During the interview he also said: 'I'm going to tell you a secret, Italian food is like Italian men, minimum effort, maximum satisfaction.' He added during the show last Wednesday: 'Now do you understand that Nicole, or do I need to explain that?' She replied: 'I think it was very clear.' Later he also told her: 'You're too pretty for radio.' Earlier, asked if he recognised a male guest in the studio, he said: 'Do I know your mum? 'Did I take your mama out for dinner or something? I meet a lot of people and usually the ones I remember are blonde, they're tall — we do an activity together.'

Shoppers go wild for F1 merch being sold in M&S and even Asda that give pit-girl vibes but at bargain prices
WITH the summer of sport in full swing, shops are stocking their shelves with merch that has moved away from the Brat Girl Summer of 2024 to a Pit Girl Summer of 2025. Yes, it's not Wimbledon or the races we're getting glammed up for this year, it's the F1! 7 7 One shopper took to TikTok to show off the M&S's range of graphic tees, vests, jumpers and a mini skirt, all with the iconic orange McLaren branding - but you won't find it on the womenswear floor. This stuff is being snapped up from the kids floor. M&S kids size range for this collection is 6-16yrs, ideal for petite girls or those who prefer a tighter fit. While this range was made for children, she tried on the age 13-14 selection, styling these as crop tops. The new releases have been branded with 'born to race' and 'Forever forward' logos and promise M&S's consistently high quality. 7 Buy now 7 The purse-friendly range is available online and in store and the prices go from £10 to £22. And it can be a dream solution for any motorsport fans on their way to Silverstone Grand Prix on the first weekend of July as F1 merch often comes with a high price tag. On her @montobe1 Tiktok - which raked up over 119,000 views, the beauty and fashion influencer said: 'Sorry but £10 for a McLaren top?! Straight in my basket.' And fashion fans are keen to get their hands on it. One commented: 'The coolest range.' A second wrote: 'I need that top.' 'Need it all' said a third. It's not only the M&S fashion buy that shoppers are loving, F1 girls have also discovered Asda's best racing accessory. 7 Asda have Formula one themed air fresheners for under a fiver. A social media F1 fanatic said that: 'I might be driving a small car, but it's mighty now.' The video now has over one million views and 40,000 likes. Halfords stock the same two items for £4.99. The scent 'blends warm woods and leather with notes of lemon verbena and patchouli to create a rich, dynamic car fragrance that lasts lap after lap', described on Halford's website. One commented 'I ran to Asda and secured them!' While others criticised the TikToker for promoting RedBull, saying "it ruins it that its Redbull." 7
