How does that work? He’s 50% of the judging panel.
Is he saying he just does what JT says? If so, he serves no purpose.

Not me, I was at a social event once. He cannot ‘read a room’. Made some very racist remarks in front of an Irish mate who was married to an Asian woman. Nobody reacted , it was embarrassing, he walked away.

What did he actually say? Not the “Me so horny” schtick again surely.

Worse, was implying black contestants did well due to their colour rather than cooking ability, we were shocked.

Wow. Awful.

I'm still wondering what the BSL translation for big boobs is.

I'm guessing the same as the 33/1 double carpet one the bookies use at racecourses.

The replacement has been chosen and it’s………..:

"Dent, 51, is also the restaurant critic for the Guardian"

A middle class woman of a certain age and a Guardian writer? This should improve their viewing figures.

She lives in Leyton, I believe.

Can I shock youse? I don't mind Grace Dent. I'm only glad Jay Rayner didn't get the gig. The man's a glutton.

I have an entirely irrational dislike of Grace Dent. I've no idea why - and I don't go around disliking people willy-nilly - but there's something about her that I just don't like.

Jay Rayner, on the other hand, while I recognise that he's a nepo-baby, I like. I'm sure we'll see him as guest presenter etc - he has a good agent.
