GORDON Ramsay is set to open a new TV hub in Glasgow to produce his new food and drink show.
The Johnstone-born chef's TV production company Studio Ramsay will launch its third studio on Bath Street in the city centre.
The hub will be used to film the second series of BBC's One's Future Food Stars.
The firm is now aiming to recruit local production executives, development executives and producers for the programme.
The hub follows on from similar sites in London and LA.

The Hell's Kitchen star said the new studio in Glasgow is "a dream come true".
Ramsay said: "There is so much opportunity to develop some fantastic new programme ideas with a great new team in this super creative city, myself and the team are excited to move in and get going.”
Lisa Edwards, chief creative officer, said: “We’ve been keen for a while to set up a production hub in the nations and regions, outside of our Studio HQ in London.
"With our founder, Gordon Ramsay’s Scottish roots, and the hugely creative and talented work force in and around Glasgow, it feels like a natural progression as part of our ongoing growth strategy to look at growing our team in this vibrant city.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
