Cooking snails ...

... with Gordon Ramsay. I probably don't have to mention that this is NSFW unless you have the sound turned right down. Or work within earshot of my office, in which case you won't even notice.

The species involved is the garden snail (Cantareus aspersus), which is a smaller cousin of the Roman or edible snail (Helix pomatia). Don't try this at home if you or your neighbours use snail bait in their gardens.
