Gordon Ramsay's been at it again – and this time he's attacking the French.

On a US chat show, the celeb chef, 40, has branded the citizens of France smelly, difficult and poor drivers.

'The French are so difficult,' Gordon told host Jay Leno. 'And they really do have bad breath. It's disgusting.

'I had a French girlfriend. It was like going to bed with a rottweiler on your chest.

'The women are a nightmare on the roads as well. They're always looking in the mirror and they drive too slowly.'

We advise Gordon to stay this side of the Channel for some time...

Watch him slam the French on Tonight with Jay Leno...
