Why is he still on master chef?

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.

Eraserbread · 28/11/2024 13:23

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.

UmbrellaEllaEllaElla · 28/11/2024 13:24

I love Greg!

Yes totally agree with you

Yes totally agree with you

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

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

NetZeroZealot · 28/11/2024 13:27

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

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

I think Gregg is autistic and people often hate autistic people without knowing that's why.

Oh for fucks sake

Perhaps he is and perhaps his presention is offputting for people and they 'hate' him because of how he presents

Perhaps he is and perhaps he is also a complete arsehole and they 'hate' him because of this

Perhaps he isnt autistic and whats the excuse then?

You can have ND (or MH issues or any other issues which affect your social engagement with others ) and also be unlikeable and people not want to be around you.

I had the (dis)pleasure of meeting GW at an event about 6 or 7 years ago. He was vile and shouted at me, I told him not to Fing speak to me like that.
Horrible man

Ihopeyouhavent · 28/11/2024 13:03

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

You don't care that he's offensive towards and about woment to the point that he's been suspended, but you do care that people have been meeeean about him being bald or whatever the fuck you're in a tizz about?

crumblingschools · 28/11/2024 13:45

Maybe a certain person on here is Gregg. Doesn't look good saying you don't care about his attitude to women when he has just been suspended because of his alleged attitude to women

Movinghouseatlast · 28/11/2024 13:50

Why are (some) men so bloody disappointing? I always liked Gregg.

goingforbronze · 28/11/2024 13:50

Yeh, punching way above his TV weight. Ex grocer (had a prog on Radio 4 about that many years ago) and plays on his connection to John Torode too much. He has a whiff of entitled neediness about him. I imagine whatever he's done or said to offend will be minimised as banter.

As for Marcus, he lacks a little charm....didn't like him on Sat Kitchen the other week. Monica I'd go for a drink with!

Yes! And ever India Fisher's voiceover sounds bored to tears with it all.

As for GW I'm surprised that anyone is really surprised about this. He's always given off an air of sleaze under that cheeky chappy illusion.

Eraserbread · 28/11/2024 13:57

@AnAlpacaForChristmasPleaseSanta Yes, he's always given off misogynistic vibes for me too. But then I don't understand how anyone actively likes the vast majority of TV "personalities" because none of them seem very genuine or nice to me, with a few exceptions!

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.

And it's not just that but there seems to be a different iteration of the show on every week. How many versions are there now? Thankfully, I only ever have to endure it if I'm visiting my parents and it's on because they won't miss it. Even they thing Gregg is a twat though.

Least shocking revelation. Dirty git.

Love Kirsty Wark.

ruffler45 · 28/11/2024 14:20

Lets be honest , how many of the exotic (and very expensive) dishes these "master" chiefs create do people at home actually try?

Abitofalark · 28/11/2024 14:27

Any thread I've ever seen in Telly Addicts is like that - the same set of people with a lot of chatter and self congratulation at how funny they think they are. If you go there expecting discussion you'll be disappointed.

I meant to quote ApplesinmyPocket whose post I was replying to.

Forrressstloverr · 28/11/2024 14:31

Well! That’s him leaving the MasterChef kitchen, permanently! What have you been up to Gregg?

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

It was a fish dish, and it was the smell he was referring to, iirc. 😨

I think Greg(g)/Greg(g)’s mum might be on this thread.
