Greg Wallace!

Each week a random celebrity guest from the world of cookery or sport tries to stop Troy reaching the pastries.

 

First up, Kirstie Allsopp.

 

I've watched this week's episodes on iPlayer already (in case they pulled it), Monica came up with the best innuendo this week, "don't forget to plug your butter hole"

 

I spat my coco pops out this morning when I was told that social media is full of stories about Gregg's sock on c. ock shame. It would be absolutely outstanding if these reports turn out to be even 1 per cent accurate

 

Axing Bombardier is something they tried not long after Rik Mayall passed away, but there was a bit of a compaign to keep it on and it recevied a stay of execution with Bob Mortimer taking over the advertising.

Instead of cutting ales beccause of popularity why not try and understand why they're no longer popular. The answer, because they've tasted poor for a good long time. Hopefully the name will be released and someone can brew to the original recipe.

Not sure what this has to do with Greg Wallace though?

 

You'd have to cancel Greg James, Graham Norton, Jonathan Ross (again), David Williams and a whole host more more if it were just a bit of innuedous smirky smut. And applied logic to other workforces there would only be 2 people left where I work.

So whilst I don't like making judgement, Gregg Wallace must be a very bad man on top of this.

 

This morning?!

I reported Gregg's sock puppetry on this thread back last Thursday.

Also the silly dance which added to the japes and comedy. I don't watch MasterChef and I'm only vaguely aware of who he is.

But the only thing he can do is geddoutatown and fast. Go somewhere a long way away and travel anonymous.

The hounds are in full cry and it is 'precisely' middle class women of a certain age who are mainly interested in cookery and domestic stuff. It is precisely them who presumably thought Gregg was a cheeky chappie with a little glint in his spectacles for the ladies. I bet some of those ladies also wrote him letters and emails saying how great he was and what they would like to do, boosting his little ego and belief about how his cheekiness was loved by all the laydeez. Now he has smashed all of their illusions. There will be no denying them until they have exacted vengeance.

I saw an actress woman complaining in the news that she had left working in TV because of Gregg. She did better than us, because we didn't even get to work in TV at all, because someone chose Gregg instead and then didn't immediately slap him with a discipline charge the first time he pulled down his zipper.

As with all the other cases of recent times, nobody said anything at the time, over the years, but now everyone appears with their story. As in this case, a lot of the reason for not complaining at the time was that they feared getting sacked themselves. The system had them as 'freelances' who could be selected or not selected - hired or fired effectively. And getting fired means destitution for many in capitalism. Anyway, that just one more reason why it's such a rotten, inefficient, corrupt and awful system which has outlived its usefulness to humans.

Anyway, another job someone else has got and not me, is advisor to Gregg and I bet my advice to him is sound. Disappear completely and then see if you can creep back here incognito in a year or so.

Breaking News: Masterchef Xmas specials Cancelled! Woo hoo! A first triumph for righteous vengeance.

Zip up and Run, Gregg, RUN!

 

Typical woke response.

 

Walliams?

 

That's him.

Vanessa Feltz has sounded out - he made a joke a about a sex act whilst in a lift. I think we all know what was involved here "going up Gregg?". "No going down, very much like my wife did this morning, wahay".

And Mel Sykes has said he's the reason she left TV, "he made me feel weird" essentially the entire jist of her accusations.

I don't for a minute think he isn't a sleazy bag o *****, but the depth of evidence stacking up isn't exactly inflammatory.

 

On that tall bloke from House of Games podcast they said he’s been warned multiple times by multiple producers about his behaviour and he’s always ignored it. Whether it’s just light hearted sexual banter or otherwise, if your work colleagues repeatedly complain about it then it’s down to you to adjust your behaviour, it’s a place of work after all, not your house or down the pub with your mates.

They also made the point that he may not watch himself back (which seems unlikely given his ego) and if he doesn’t, he probably doesn’t realise how much he gets edited and probably thinks everyone laps his general humour up.

 

I once left a job because the manager was a big fat woman and it made me feel queasy

 

It's fairly clear he's crossed a line but I think it's way short of what Jermaine Jenas had done.

 

And way way short of Russell Brand.

 

None, it was a clickbaiting jape, as there was much speculation about whether the crass dome-headed idiot was going to be given the high jump and some on here were concerned that their viewing might be ruined, which it was, when they decided to broadcast the episodes.

 

Bit rich coming from someone who has personally curated 4000 pages on Bargain Hunt! Pot and kettle, sir…

 

4000 pages? Bravo @reg_varney , an incredible effort, (more of Tash soon please).

 

TBF, I was exaggerating a tad.

 

The BBC it seems is digging. Accusation of frottage which have proved difficult to brush off, a bow tie adjusting which resulted in automatic partial lowering of trousers revealing pubic hair, and a grubby grope in a car park. So, not just language this time but more sexualised behaviour. As with Fayed, as soon as a few step forward then an Avalanche starts, which will bury him. All leave has been cancelled for the archive airbrushing team. A new career involving a Discovery+ slot on greengrocery awaits.

I would imagine the images of Christina alone would number way more than 4000.

 

He’s blamed Middle aged woman, but the reality is a lot of younger woman in TV will have been far too scared to have said anything until now, it will have taken somebody who can afford to risk it outing him first.

Zara McDermott off strictly said as much when footage of her dance partner kicking her was released, she said she was worried for her career at the time so didn’t say anything. The footage only came out after the 50 year Amanda Abbington made her complaints.

 

I too am hearing this. Apparently a long black walking boot sock, but too loose so kept falling off. The suggestion is, deliberately.
Anyone from The Mail reading ? You can definitely print this. Gospel truth.

 

He's a god damned forum treasure.

Idea for a programme, Gregg Wallace and David Coote to anchor a Middle Eastern sports channel

 

“…Middle Eastern to include Norwich and Swaffham, but not, I repeat, not Ipswich.”

 

True enough but some of the allegations refer to the Masterchef series which isn't celebrities or professionals; so with little to lose professionally, why did it take so long for these to come out. The BBC website page which does the newspaper front pages, the Sun leads with a story from a contestant in 2009 where she alleges he thrust his groin to her face 3 times while she was bending down to the oven and according to her, they edited that out. With something like that, I'm surprised she didn't make a complaint to the producers immediately after. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/crrw5q4xx2ro

 

At least she has the social media receipts!

 

I think that’s victim blaming (albeit I appreciate it’s not the most serious of offences). I think it’s perfectly understandable that a contestant on a show wouldn’t report something like that at the time, for a multitude of reasons, and for the same reasons people don’t report a lot of things that happen at the time, but feel more comfortable to do so later on, once others have.

 

That picture just screams wrong 'un.

 

Don't forget Fakenham.

 

As if anyone could ever….
