Gregg loves a big machine and hair nets.
That programme is quite informative though ;I'd never given a crisp or a waffle much thought before!
It's also food history as well.

I just refuse to watch masterchef because I can’t bear to see him shove a spoon in his face. Urgh. He’s just awful.

In every consecutive series of Masterchef John looks increasingly like he hates Gregg Grin

cathay123 · 27/02/2019 21:15

He is so sleazy - I never watch anything with him in now.

Theknacktoflying · 27/02/2019 21:15

The rip off the actors do on his habits on ‘Horrible Histories’ masterchef skit is really spot on.

Can’t bear the man ... he must have some good shit on those who commission the programmes.

wowfudge · 27/02/2019 21:16

John is on record saying he and Gregg aren't mates off screen.

The80sweregreat · 27/02/2019 21:17

John Torode is nice looking .. Gregg isn't that blessed in the looks department but he is enthusiastic!

BartonHollow · 27/02/2019 21:18

This just makes me think of :

The time he got roasted for making an issue of his second G to somebody who was asking him to support a child cancer charity

The time he got roasted for complaining that his cleaner hadn't emptied the kitchen bin

Both on Twitter Grin

crispsahoy · 27/02/2019 21:20

Don't mind Gregg don't like John

hellenbackagen · 27/02/2019 21:22

my dp hates the man! told me somone actually told him he was a tosser at a restaurant and he punched them...double tosser!

Merchantgirl · 27/02/2019 21:23

I can’t stand the man! Who is he anyway? I can’t watch anything with him in it, he really talks nonsense and believes his own hype!

Yabbers · 27/02/2019 21:24

I hate masterchef.

That awful voiceover coupled with close ups of people shovelling food into their mouths turns my stomach.

Wallace is the worst of it. And why the hell does he wear a hairnet in factories?

QueenArseClangers · 27/02/2019 21:25

He’s a right knob.

Yeah, I can't bear testicle head. Which is a pity, because I actually like Eat Well for Less. But now I think of Greggg bloody Wallace every time I make an egg in the microwave.

The80sweregreat · 27/02/2019 21:26

He has to wear hairnets! It's compulsory in factories processing food.
They do let him loose around the big machines. Can't have ' gregg hair' in the crisps.

LyingWitchInTheWardrobe2726 · 27/02/2019 21:27

It's John Torode who gets on my pip... bites the spoon every time he put it in his mouth. Why? He must have had a mum who would have taught him not to do that, surely?

BornInAThunderstorm · 27/02/2019 21:28

CHOCK-LIT!!!!

Also can’t stand him, so shouty

BestestBrownies · 27/02/2019 21:28

I have been on Masterchef as a contestant and I can confirm that Gregg is an utter bellend with zero self-awareness. The entire crew can't stand the misogynistic little arsewipe.

He spends the entire time making disgusting sexist 'jokes' which means they have to cut and start again. He is completely oblivious and thinks he's a fucking comedian.

John is normal though. He heard me mutter 'cunt' under my breath after about the billionth 'hilarious' remark from Gregg and burst out laughing.

Have bumped into both of them several times since. John at food-related events and Gregg at the beauticians where he was having botox.

The80sweregreat · 27/02/2019 21:28

Master chef was better with the other weird bloke and on Sunday afternoons! One person won each week and it didn't drag on forever. Much better format .

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 27/02/2019 21:28

He looks like a thumb. Periodically, someone starts a thread entitled ‘Gregg Wallace’ and I momentarily chastise myself for disliking him as I’m thinking, oh gawd, has he died?

Livpool · 27/02/2019 21:28

He is incapable of talking to women without being very weird

JaneJeffer · 27/02/2019 21:31

Yes The80s just make a roast dinner and be done with it! Who wants all these ridiculous dishes with foam and all that nonsense? It's getting more ridiculous every series.

The80sweregreat · 27/02/2019 21:32

I still can't hate him ( even if it's clear his not a nice person!)
I hate myself for thinking this though. He isn't Philip Schofield and that's good enough reason to tolerate him on tv.

tartantroosers · 27/02/2019 21:33

Laydeees,
I have to report that (as a self confessed Masterchef addict) I was quite thrilled to see Yer Man Greg(g) in the spenny hospitality at Twickenham on TWO occasions in the last 5 weeks. He is smaller and slimmer than he appears on the tv. I was talking with one of the lovely bar staff, who are mostly students or hired in via agency. A "bloke" in his "entourage" did what I thought was a "friendly wave" to the girl I was talking to, and then it became clear that he was FUCKING CLICKING HIS FINGERS FOR HER COME OVER AND TAKE A PHOTO OF HIM AND LORD GREGG. I got the RAGE.
