Why is he still on master chef?

I like to pretend that the other (far suprior)presenters can't see him, he's just a figment of my imagination. They do seem to largely ignore him.

I pretend that he’s never in the same room as the other presenters and they have him against a green screen. Then they comp it all together to make it look like they can stand being near him and they’re all having a nice conversation.

Will he give back his MBE?.

I hope King Charles has already sent round a heavy to snatch it back.

I'm afraid it does. Normies react quite strongly to a lot of autistic people. It's really depressing. (I'm autistic btw).

Normies??

Poor Greg(g) can’t even get away with being a bit of a creep in this woke world… I can’t quite believe this nonsense is still going on.

GinToBegin · 28/11/2024 15:54

I just came here to say how surprised I was by the allegations, then I realised that I wasn’t remotely surprised.

His whole ‘career’ is a triumph of ambition over ability, and if the allegations are true, I hope he loses every one of his media jobs.

I stopped watching a long time ago, when John Torode was kind of a shit to his ex-wife.

Greg was always a twat though

At least John Torode knows about cooking. As do Monica and Marcus. Greg(g) knows very little about very little.

@CoffeeCantata I used to love Masterchef when Lloyd Grossman was on it - when dinosaurs roamed the earth!
People mocked him (he had a very noticeable New England accent) but it was so much more civilised than with these 2 loud, loutish and irritating geezers.

I loved Lloyd Grossman too! "Welcome to Maaaaaaahsterchef niyun-teen niyun-ty fooooorrrrrrr"

Oh god, the endless quarter finals. I said to Dh (who LOVES the show) that must now be more Masterchef quarterfinalists walking this earth than there are rats in London.

Good riddance to him. Let's hope the show dies a death. Terrible show.

Gregg Wallace is a knob, he is a knob if he's autistic or a "Normie"

I ad the pleasure of meeting him and his PA once .. 🫤 she was as awful as him and I could see how they worked well together. I actually can't watch him on tv now.

AInightingale · 28/11/2024 15:17

I knew absolutely nothing about Gregg Wallace before today, but reading this thread, I instantly recognise the sort of man. Most of us of a certain vintage will have endured the boss/work colleague like this. Dirty jokes and creepy comments women felt powerless to challenge, all dismissed as 'banter'. Well, they aren't getting away with it anymore, and that's got to be progress.

His son has autism. It is likely he is also somewhere on the spectrum with some of the more unusual things he says. I'm surprised though, that this was not nipped in the bud a very long time ago.

One of the Sunday papers (I think it’s a Sunday) had him in their column ‘a day in the life of’….hardly seems to spend any time with his son!

Eraserbread · 28/11/2024 15:12

Yes, autistic people aren't more likely to make inappropriate sexual comments or behave like misogynistic dicks, are they?

JesusWasaLady · 28/11/2024 15:09

I have autism, as my DD and cousin. None of us are sexually inappropriate, let alone at a place of work. I understand the difficulties in understand boundaries and social cues however, Autism is not an excuse to be a creep.

Show quote history

You're right of course. There's that brilliant saying "when you meet one person with Autism, you've met ONE person with Autism". ND manifests itself differently in different people.

aesoplover · 28/11/2024 15:08

Was it not Lisa Faulkner (John Torode's wife) who made one of the allegations about GW's sexual comments? (Sorry if this has already been mentioned I've not RTFT)

How he got four women to marry him I'll never know.

I have autism and autism does not make people hate you nor is it an excuse to be an arrogant wanker like Wallace.

me too, seems very odd that Kirsty Wark, who surely has a fair bit of clout on the BBC, is on the BBC website today talking about him being inappropriate in 2011.

Good for you! Bet that surprised him, probably not used to being stood up to.

Show quote history

He did look pretty stunned and there was an audible gasp from his minions.
He was behaving like a dick before he shouted at me, he was turning the amiable cheeky chappy persona on and off like a light switch and I thought he seemed pretty unpleasant before he shouted at me.
I wasn't even interacting with him, I have no idea why he decided to have a go at me
