Gregg Wallace watch

[Hoover Attack]

Ffs Greg!

[Currywurst and Chips]

BBC were being warned seven years ago

This is following the classic BBC wrong un scandal arc perfectly. I’m sure this time lessons will be learnt though

[Dunners]

Once again, it's the BBC News reporting on the BBC that I find most entertaining.

[Constanza]

Looking forward to Stewart Lee's column next week.

[CEB2ElectricBoogaloo]

He’s posted another weird clip on Instagram soundtracked by Pink Floyd’s Bicycle song

[Long slender neck]

The allegations look mostly quite tame so far, unless I've missed some?

"Gregg told a sexual joke"

[Long slender neck]

telling a junior female colleague he wasn't wearing any boxer shorts under his jeans.

probably the worst

One said his sexual jokes were "disgusting", adding that he would talk about how often he was having sex, and how he was a good lover.

After they complained, Wallace apologised and they were offered counselling.

Not exactly Saville is it?

[Dunners]

I get the impression that he's one of those blokes for whom playing the numbers game has become habitual. Try and flirt with enough women, and he'll get one or two successes. But, as he gets older, his success percentage reduces, so he's increasing the initial tally to compensate.

As a bloke in his 20s it would have been one thing. But for a bloke of his age it's just desperate and creepy. And then you have to throw in the power dynamic, and the tendency of BBC senior managers to protect the "talent".

He's clearly incapable or unwilling to recognise how his behaviour will make most people feel, so should never be allowed to be put in that position.

[Hoover Attack]

I refuse to believe Greg was ever in his 20s

[Dunners]

Cragg was born with a midlife crisis.

[Admin]

Is that a Millwall tat?

Yes

and it's funny, because I always thought Torode was the more obvious wrong 'un

I bet he's a regular down The New Den.

Probably will be now seeing as he’ll have f*** all else to do.

[Real Al]

A mate of mine will punch Wallace's lights out if he ever meets him. This after his wife had an 'encounter' with Wallace on a train.

Let's just say that I'm not surprised about any of this.

As for John Toad, I met him at an event once. I say met, but he spent the whole day avoiding talking to anyone there

[Max B Gold]

Was he not a greengrocer to trade before becoming a C List celeb?

He could go back to that and with all the free publicity, he's getting he could move into selling rude shaped veg.

You know the sort of stuff - willy shaped parsnips and carrots, arse shaped turnips, boob shaped melons etc.

Interested to hear more about this

I don’t blame him for not talking to anyone . As the great feminist Jim Davidson says , “ it’s best not to speak to women anymore “

[Dunners]

FFS. I cannot be the only one with a wife who Grogg Wallace hasn't tried to shag, am I?

[Proposition Joe]

Very GB News/Trumpian to come out on the offensive and blame this all on middle class women when the volume of rumours out there are legion and probably not divided by class or age lines whatsoever.

[EastDerehamO]

I’ve always been ambivalent towards Wallace, caught bits of his programmes at times but never interested enough to watch cookery progs anyway.

A mate’s view is that Wallace said what many would maybe joke to their mates about down the pub, but totally inappropriate behaviour on the show – well yes indeed re the latter, shows a lack of judgement. If more went on than ‘banter’, then absolutely wrong, no excuses.

But I do find it strange that the likes of Kirsty Wark, a respected presenter, didn’t raise issues before within the BBC, for I would have expected her to for she would have surely judged it was wrong, nip it in the bud and maybe we don’t end up where we are now. So does feel there are questions to answer beyond just Wallace.

Blaming Kirstie Wark for all this for not whistle blowing earlier is certainly an interesting interpretation of events.

[CEB2ElectricBoogaloo]

Kirsty owes Gregg an apology for not nipping this in the bud years ago

[Max B Gold]

Kirsteen was probably waiting until she retired before mentioning gregs mispeaks and didnt want to go upsetting her BBC bosses whilst an active employee there.

But then realised she missed being in the public eye and has found an unusual rouse to force her way back into the spotlight. 13 years is a long time to sit on a "sexualised joke".

[Currywurst and Chips]

He’ll get sacked by BBC after or leave on his own accord

He’ll moan he’s been cancelled fland never convicted of anything

He’ll get a show on GB News

Can you be convicted for telling dirty jokes or speaking inappropriately

Harassment is a criminal offence so yeah, if it’s a sustained pattern of behaviour against an individual
