Why is he so obnoxious? I have a real irrational dislike of him. Am I unreasonable?!?

That really tickled me Gremlins Grin

Tillypea · 22/12/2018 15:09

He's my guilty celeb crush Xmas Blush

knockknockknock · 22/12/2018 15:18

I'm sure years ago it come out that he's into spanking 🤢🤢🤢🤢

EvilRingahBitch · 22/12/2018 15:25

Masterpieces of arms-length choreography from Aliona there. Never afraid to go for the Look At Me, Aren’t I Gorgeous, Feel Free to Ignore Whatsisname! when lumbered with a duffer, especially one who advertises his lack of underpants.

I fucking hate him. He's only a fruit & veg seller so don't see him as any more qualified than me to present MC.
I also personally believe he's a DV perpetrator but have absolutely nothing to base that on

BasiliskStare · 22/12/2018 15:41

I've asked for it to be deleted just in case longwayoff but yes Grin Gremlins

A short google of Greg Wallace balcony will turn up other versions

I also see had missed Schadenfreude One of the resident expert panel on Greg Wallace.

I am interested that he is on MC to encourage a wider audience. Frankly I m not sure without forensic polling you could not prove that more people would not watch if it were not for the grinning greengrocer. ( Do you know what I bet he hasn't personally packaged a savoy cabbage since Adam was a lad - & if he has a big wholesale business does he inspect the produce for quality and flavour ? ) Hmmmphhh - Bah Humbug Smile

Urbanbeetler · 22/12/2018 15:57

Someone on a master chef thread said he always does his come face at puddings. Now I can’t watch him without thinking that. V disturbing.

kshaw · 22/12/2018 16:22

I met him through work a few weeks ago - misogynist, obnoxious, arrogant prick.

You obviously met him on one of his good days then.

I wish I hadn't read that @Urban Envy definitely not envy, just green around the gills at the thought.

If you google companies house beta + Gregg Allan Wallace you can see just how much of a successful greengrocer he was from a business point of view. No idea how fat his wallet is from TV presenting but a hell of a lot of people's, including the Revenue, are a whole lot lighter after dealing with some of his companies Angry

driggle · 22/12/2018 16:53

I can't stand him. I get the feeling Monica and Marcus think he's a twerp too. They give him a certain look sometimes when he adds his completely irrelevant opinion on the food. The BBC must know how much he's disliked so I've no idea why they keep him on there.

GodrestyemerrySchadenfreud · 22/12/2018 17:13

I agree driggle. The 2 M's obviously regard him with barely concealed contempt.

I think he Has Something On Someone At The BBC.

He is (as Norman Stanley Fletcher would have said) a charmless nerk.

SneakyGremlinsBrokeTheSleigh · 22/12/2018 17:16

You'd think he'd be the person someone would have something on..

thatwouldbeanecumenicalmatter · 22/12/2018 17:16

Glad it’s not just me, he massively sets off my creep’o’meter.

ratchethandler · 22/12/2018 17:22

That Tweet...What a repulsive man he must be.

How did he ever get into public life? He's unintelligent, talent less and obnoxious.

n0ne · 22/12/2018 17:25

This is third hand info and possibly counts as slander but I heard he has a terrible coke habit and is a total letch. Knowing that, his behaviour on MC takes on a whole new meaning!

GodrestyemerrySchadenfreud · 22/12/2018 17:29

Whilst I know that there is no accounting for taste, I really don't know how any woman who is not blind and deaf (and with no sense of smell) can see anything even remotely attractive about him - fat wallet or not.

I suspect that most would rather go into the garden and lick slugs . . .

StroppyWoman · 22/12/2018 17:30

He's utterly repellant but a necessary evil for watching the mighty Monica. I love her, she takes no shit.

We watched MC and shout "no one cares what you think, Gregg" every time he opens his gob.

longwayoff · 22/12/2018 17:46

Thanks basilisk, high irony gremlins, am checking for gregG shaped spotTs.

TheQueef · 22/12/2018 17:49

It's like someone's vomited all over iplayer with his gurning Christmas jumper picture.

I might e-mail the BBC.

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 22/12/2018 18:19

Wider as in...?

Urbanbeetler · 22/12/2018 18:26

If he speaks first, he doesn’t have the same opinions as the others. If he gives his opinions after then, they are usually the same.

You get the feeling the contestants disregard what he says and really want to hear what the other judges think.

^ This!

You know those special screenings of The Rocky Horror Show and the Sound of Music, when everyone dresses up and acts along? Well perhaps they should screen Masterchef like this, and the audience can all shout 'Shut up Gregggg! No cares what you think,' whenever he speaks.

I'd go...
