Which one do you like most and why? The F Word so far is only made and shown in England. American versions of Kitchen Nightmares and Hell’s Kitchen are splashier, noisier, more argumentative and more heavily financed than the UK versions (the extra money means that US contestants and businesses are given perks that the UK contestants and businesses aren’t).

Some people also find the narration and advance previews annoying and some feel the extra money that goes into the US versions is unfair. What do you think and which programme(s) do you prefer – the English or American versions – and why? Do you have an order of preference if you like all of them?
Mikk – there is no ‘both’ since I am asking about three programmes, not two!

Very few of you have indicated which show you prefer, just which country’s version!

You can watch UK and US versions of KN and HK on YouTube.

I own my own contracting company and have always had nothing but satisfied clients except for this one family. This job was funded by the state because this guy is in a wheelchair and needed a more accessible bathroom. To put things short this job was hell! The guy in the wheelchair threatened my contractor, they wanted to make changes to the materials (toilet, shower, ect.) after the government approved the bid, they picked the flooring and paint and after it was installed said it wasn’t what they wanted, they even damaged property that was supposed to be installed because they didn’t like it. The job was for 10,000 we didn’t get paid for labor at all, now they want to sue us for 25,000! They originally had 4 complaints and I have documented that we offered to go back and fix it or even pay for another contractor to fix it. I didn’t agree but I wanted them off my back, they refused. Now they are saying they are going to the media to slander my companys name and suing us.
Oh and by the way their list of four complaints is now up to 75! We do have documentation that we contacted the state about them destroying the flooring, the sink, and some accessories but I am worried that nobody will believe us because this guy is in a wheelchair. I can’t have my company on TV for doing bad work! What can we do???
The total cost of the bathroom was ,000 we got paid ,000 for materials which are all in the bathroom.
