Ok third time luck, image won't post so here's a thread talking about that Saturday routine Greg Wallace's Saturday routine www.mumsnet.com/Talk/_chat/5001903-greg-wallaces-saturday-routine

All on the BBC lunchtime news! He’s toast now.
Good riddance.

I remember Lloyd Grossman and the much shorter version of master chef ! It was on Sunday afternoons and was actually good.
Greg sounds in hot water although I'm not sure what he has actually said or done

Yes totally agree with you

It's always a quarter final. Endless quarter final episode. Has anyone else noticed that?!

Masterchef was best when it was Lloyd Grossman, and they had three contestants who cooked a three-course meal, with a winner declared at the end of every episode They drag things out too long now, trying to amp up the competition, and inserting loads of useless filler.

Yes totally agree with you

I love Greg!

I can’t watch anything with Greg on it. I always thought he was an awful presenter. I don’t know why the BBC always sticks with the same people for years.

Poggishairtufts · 28/11/2024 13:22

This was what I was referring to, people have twisted my words, I find it really sad that he doesn't seem to be much of a 'family man'.

Really hope the investigations are fair and if he's found to have done wrong that he's punished appropriately, again I'm thinking of the victims who have not been listened to until now.

I turn off shows he's in, I don't need things explained to me like I'm 3 and he comes across as very rude. Hope I'm allowed to have those opinions without being chastised!

Masterchef Australia is so much better.

I absolutely hate this show and it's on every night of the week, year after year.

Should have "Best before 2006" running across the bottom of the screen.

I actually like Marcus. He's twinkly, and gives off sexy Gandalf vibes. Grin

Deathraystare · 28/11/2024 13:05

I am surprised his co-workers aren't fitted with noise cancelling head phones. One man that seriously does not need a megaphone for Christmas...

how do you know that his aunt wasnt a cunt?

Show quote history

He was implying it looked like his aunt's vagina, not that she was a cunt.

Eraserbread · 28/11/2024 13:04

Ihopeyouhavent · 28/11/2024 13:03

why should i? i dont care about his opinion on women.

Show quote history

Oh, so it's fine for him to call women all kinds of names (often related to their appearance) and to make disgusting sexual comments to them, but women laughing at his appearance (which I haven't done) are the worst?

Eraserbread · 28/11/2024 13:03

I've, unfortunately, just been reminded of the Popbitch piece where Gregg was asked what (I think) he thought a plate of food reminded him of and he replied " My aunt's cunt." Horrible man.

He has always given me the creeps

BobbyBiscuits · 28/11/2024 13:03

@Eraserbread yeah, it's totally believable isn't it. The way he talked about his disabled son. What a tosser!!

Ihopeyouhavent · 28/11/2024 13:03

And whats wrong with his saturday/sunday routine?

You should hear what he says to and about the women he works alongside!

I would completely enjoy Inside the Factory if Gregg's voice could be dubbed by someone more soothing like Mark Rylance or Nigel Slater, so you'd get all the fun of the machines and the individual wrapping arms and the big stirring whisks, but without the frenetic 'SO SONJA YOU'RE IN CHARGE OF CHOCOLATE FINGERING HAHAHAHAHAAHAAAAA' and more '... and now one tonne of milk chocolate is being poured into the mixture.'
