A long flight can put even the most mild mannered among us in a bad mood.

But Gordon Ramsay managed to keep a smile on his face as he made his way through Heathrow Airport on Thursday, following a ten-hour flight from LAX.

The 49-year-old kept a protective arm around his wife Tana, but it seemed like he was back to business as usual, as he looked engrossed in an important phone call.

The temperamental chef dressed down for the flight in jeans and a padded jacket, adding a touch of sophistication with some patent black brogues.

Meanwhile, Tana, 41, kept covered up in a baggy black jumper, but showed off her shapely legs in a pair of leggings.

She sensibly chose a pair of comfy trainers for the trip, but injected a splash of glamour with a navy Versace handbag.

The couple were all smiles as they made their way back home, after their jam-packed trip in America where Gordon was filming scenes for MasterChef Junior. 

The celebrity chef wasn't afraid to take himself too seriously on the show, tweeting a picture of himself on set dressed up as a hippy.

Donning a peasant blouse, brown waistcoat and flares the star flashed a peace sign at the camera whilst sporting a long blonde wig and flower crown.

And the star seemed to get into the Christmas spirit of giving whilst stateside, surprising diners at his high end diner Burgr by sending out free desserts.

No doubt the Hell's Kitchen star was in good spirits after he was given approval to demolish his £4.4million holiday home in Rock, Cornwall to build a bigger property.

The luxury new pad will include no less than five bedrooms, complete with en-suite bathrooms, two kitchens, an outdoor swimming pool and a wine cellar.

Gordon has also designed a three-bedroom grass covered boathouse for the grounds, which will cover one and-a-third acres, with direct access to the beach.

The luxury new home may seem rather opulent, but it will fit in well with the neighbours' properties. 

Rock is one of the most expensive places to buy property in Britain, with the average property costing almost £800,000 over the past five years - four-and-a-half times the national average.
