The TV Show Matilda and the Ramsay Bunch

It's great to be back.

My name's Matilda.

-ALL:

-Tilly!

But people call me Tilly.

Tilly!

Tilly!

I'm crazy about cooking.

Mmmm.

Deliciousness! Omnomnom!

Mad to mess about.

And I've got the most embarrassing family...ever.

-ALL:

-Says who?

Is it true you have a boyfriend?

"Says who?"

You're so annoying!

Dad's the chef.

Matilda, where's my frying pan, please?

But I've taken over the kitchen in this house.

-What are you doing?

-I'm looking for my frying pan. Tilly!

Tilly rules, OK?

-It's on fire! It's on fire!

-I was just... I was...

It's another crazy time for The Ramsay Bunch.

We're in LA, the entertainment capital of America.

And I'm doing lots of what I love best.

Cooking.

This looks amazing.

And writing my food blog.

Today, I'm joining the stars,

doing something that I've never done before.

I'm so nervous.

I'm going to be a guest on a really big American TV show today,

called The Late Late show.

It's presented by British megastar, actor and comedian James Corden.

He's so famous over here now.

It'll be amazing seeing behind the scenes,

but it still feels a bit scary.

And triple terrifying. With millions watching, I'm going

to have to cook on this massive show, too.

But the big question is, when you're faced with something a bit scary...

-MATILDA SHRIEKS

-Matilda!

Are you still single?

'Dad's giving me lessons at being interviewed.'

-No, no, no, no, no, no!

-Are you still single?

Annoying Dad-style. He's the biggest teaser in the world!

On the interview tonight, are you going to be wearing those slippers?

-Because you'll get kicked out the studio.

-Ha-ha(!)

One more question. What's it like being the daughter

to the best chef in the world?

But Jamie Oliver's not my dad.

-Give me five.

-Matilda!

Today, I'm cooking classic British food for James.

Meat pies,

a delicious cheeky chutney,

and we'll be taking him on in a competition to cook the best

full English breakfast on The Late Late Show.

James has moved to America and he's really missing his British food.

So, I'm going to make him some to give him a real taste of home.

I've done some research and his favourite is steak and kidney pie.

Look at that! That really doesn't look very appetising.

'But it's tasty when it's cooked and James loves it.'

Feels a bit like cutting rubber when you cut a kidney.

'Normally, I never cook kidneys.'

I put in mushroom or broccoli, or just another vegetable.

'Add the kidney to the steak, then some flour,

'salt and pepper, and rub it in.'

'Then give your hands a good wash.'

'Next, heat some olive oil and fry the steak and kidney.'

'Add onions, thyme and bay leaves.'

I know that these are definitely going to give a lot of flavour.

Mmmm.

'Next, beef stock and Worcestershire sauce.'

I can't smell the kidneys as much any more.

'Mm. Smells good.'

Leave it to simmer for about an hour and a half...'

To let all the meats become more tender.

To stop James's homesickness, I'm making him a British food hamper.

And I've sent the gang off in search of his favourites.

What do we need to find, guys? Is it black pudding?

-Black pudding and...

-Scotch eggs.

-Scotch eggs.

James loves black pudding and Scotch eggs.

-Meg? Look in sausages.

-Meats.

-Meats.

Trouble is you can't find British classics in an American supermarket.

Would you like to help me and my sisters find Scotch egg?

-S'got edge? Got edge?

-Scotch egg.

-Egg.

-SCOTCH eggs.

No, just American eggs.

Well, that was completely unsuccessful.

Let's go somewhere else.

It's going to be tough. Time to hit the web.

All right, guys. Shall we try and search out where we can find

some black pudding?

-Ye Olde King's Head.

-Ye Olde King's Head. That sounds pretty English.

-Let's go there.

-Right, let's go.

'On with the steak and kidney pies.

'Roll the puff pastry.'

It's called puff pastry, because as it goes in the oven

and as it heats up, it puffs up and it's very delicious.

'I'm making mini pies for James.'

And if ever he feels homesick, he can just run to the freezer

and grab one.

'Butter the pie cases, cut out pastry and add the filling.'

Whoops, that's a bit too full. I'll have to take some of that out.

I definitely think James is going to love these.

'Glue the lids on with beaten egg yolk.'

And this makes the pastry nice and golden.

'I'm making James's initials with the leftover pastry.'

Here's the J. Now I need to make the C.

Perfect.

Now, these are going to go in a hot oven for about 40-45 minutes.

Fingers crossed.

Oh. They look very good.

My favourite is definitely the one with the JC.

The guys have found the perfect shop for a homesick Brit.

All it sells is British food.

Oh, look, they've even got chocolate.

They're like kids in a sweet shop. Literally.

Oh, my goodness me.

Take these.

Bingo!

Can we please get one Scotch egg?

-Sure, yeah.

-Thank you.

-You're welcome.

Do you have any black pudding?

-Yeah, it's in the freezer.

-Yes!

Jack's hit the jackpot!

Let's give Tilly a call.

Hey, Till! Hey-hey. How has your morning been?

-I'm actually quite nervous for tonight. ON TABLET:

-'Are you?'

-Don't be nervous about tonight, OK?

-Yeah, don't be nervous.

-I love you.

-'Love you. Bye!'

I'm a bit nervous about what to wear tonight.

Mum, will you help me choose what I'm going to wear later?

Yeah. We thinking a dress? Possibly?

Can I encourage you, for once, to wear a dress?

-Yeah.

-Please. Just make me happy.

Ooh! Oh, no...

Next, I'm making James my delicious fruity chutney.

This cheeky chutney is so easy. You just put everything in a pan.

-What do you want?

-It's not as cheeky as the person making it.

Oh, very funny(!)

I'm busy, I'm trying to work.

'Add chopped apple and tomato to a pan...'

Tilly, brand-new stove, brand-new kitchen. Please don't burn it.

Yeah!

And then I'm going to add in some garlic.

Mmmm. Garlic's a very strong smell.

And then just some brown sugar.

It is really easy.

'Finally, some red wine vinegar.'

You just need to cook it for ten minutes and then it's done.

-He-e-e-e-ey!

-Hey, guys!

How are you?

With the guys' British goodies,

the pies and chutney,

my homesick hamper for James is now complete.

Check out my recipes and my blog

on the CBBC website.

Here we go.

Off to The Late Late Show.

These studios are where some of the biggest TV shows

in the world are made.

I'm really nervous!

-This is Matilda.

-Hi, I'm Zoe.

-And, Matilda, Zoe.

-I've got my tray for James.

I hope the pies are going to go down well.

'We're running late...for The Late Late Show.'

-That's why Matilda's late.

-You were the one doing your hair...

I wasn't doing my hair!

This place is enormous!

And there's millions of people to meet.

-Hi, Matilda. How are you?

-Hi. Good, thanks.

-So nice to have you here.

You guys are right in here, these two rooms.

-Are you good? Tilly, Sonya. Sonya, Tilly.

-Yes, hi.

-We met at American Idol.

-Yeah.

Oh, Teri, hi. Come in, please.

When you guys are ready, we'll rehearse downstairs.

We've got the cooking demo all ready for you.

It's nonstop.

James and all the crew are getting ready to rehearse.

-James, Tilly.

-Hello.

-How are you doing?

-I'm good, thanks.

-How are you?

-Thanks for doing this.

-Stand by.

Quiet, please, offstage. We're rehearsing. Thank you.

It takes a lot of people to make a show like this,

and everyone, including Dad and I, need to know what we're doing.

-Is it Tilly and I?

-You're on this side.

-You two are on this side, and it's me on this side.

-Brilliant.

We're going to be taking James on in a cooking challenge,

but I've never cooked like this before.

30 seconds to go, guys. 30 seconds to go on this. Oh, my goodness...

Eggs out.

All right, guys, you've got ten seconds. We need to get this

on the plates, all right?

All right, serving. OK, let's bring these in...

'Cooking? Without food?

'That's a new one on me.'

I fancy my chances against these two.

'Rehearsal's over. It's hamper time.'

'Hope James likes it.'

-OK, so...

-What have we got here?

-..we've got some pies

with steak and kidney. JAMES GASPS

With my initials on one of them! This is amazing!

-Some home-made chutney...

-Yes, and home-made apple chutney.

And then the others went out and bought some British food.

Oh, my goodness! You are too kind. Thank you so much.

Aw, you're the best. Look at this!

-See you shortly.

-I wish everyone brought gifts.

He loved them! I'm so happy!

-She's beautiful, so she doesn't need a lot.

-Takes after her dad.

Mm-hmm(!)

Thank God you look like me.

You wish, Dad.

I'm dressed and ready to go,

and family and friends have arrived to give their support.

Tilly, you're looking very cool.

You didn't go with the dress Mummy chose.

-Oh, no. Dad and I thought more like...

-You, wearing a dress?

Are you feeling nervous?

'No. Terrified!'

The show's starting.

I can't believe I'm going to be in front of all these people.

-Ready to go?

-Yeah.

-Good luck.

-Thank you.

This is it. I'm really scared!

Ready?

Welcome back.

We're here now for a cook-off with Gordon Ramsay

and, everybody, say hello to his daughter

Tilly Ramsay!

-So, who is the better cook? You or your dad?

-Definitely me.

Really? Why?

I'm just more relaxed. I'm not as... LAUGHTER

Tell everybody what we're going to cook tonight.

So, tonight, we're going to be making a full English breakfast.

-A full English breakfast.

-APPLAUSE

-Slice the bread.

-No, you slice the bread.

-No, listen...

'Whilst Dad and I are arguing, James is pulling ahead.'

My recipe of all being done in one pan...

'And he's still firing questions at me!'

Tilly, when did you first start to cook?

-Um, I first started to cook when I was really young.

-Right.

Because Mum got me into it.

-Oh! Not your dad?

-No.

LAUGHTER

'Dad's showing off, putting bacon straight on the hotplate.

'Aah! Dangerous!

'Make sure you never do this.

'He's blown it now.'

Oh, my goodness...

-That's burnt!

-That's crispy.

-Burnt!

-Ask James.

-James, is that burnt?

-No, it's caramelised.

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

'We're both really competitive, so we're pulling it back.'

-We are done!

-Hang on!

-CHEERING

Just lay it all out on a plate like that. There we go.

-APPLAUSE

-Now, have a look at the two...

One great breakfast, and one frankly boring and ordinary.

James's?

Or mine and Dad's?

Go to the CBBC website to choose.

Ladies and gentlemen, a huge thank you to Gordon and Matilda Ramsay.

-APPLAUSE

-Stick around, we'll be right back.

Wow, what an experience!

Seriously, how did you deal with that?

Wahey! Oh, man.

That was a totally full-on day.

Unlike me, Dad's pretty used to being on live TV

and he's a great chef.

And, today, we get to have our foodie heart-to-heart

on the roof of James's studio.

Good job, Chef. I think James was happy with his treats.

Mm-hmm, yeah, I think he was.

-You were a little bit nervous to start off with?

-Yeah, a little bit.

-Were you amazed how fast it went?

-Mm-hmm, yeah.

His breakfast wasn't too good though, was it? All in one pot?

-Huh? What about my crispy bacon?

-TILLY GROANS

I think we won, hands-down, don't you?

That's how well we work together as a team. Head chef, sous chef.

-Head chef, sous chef.

-Yeah.

What's it going to be like, one day, when there's three of us in a team?

What do you...?

Aaaaah.

Is that the kind of breakfast you'll cook your boyfriend?

-Goodnight, everyone.

-Goodnight, everyone.

Dad, you're a much better chef than James, but his jokes are funnier.

Hey, I'm pretty funny.

Funny-looking maybe. LAUGHTER

ALL: Goodnight!
