Gregg Wallace hits out at 'handful' of accusers

[MashBag]

I am yet to hear the police kicking his door down in a early morning raid.

Trial by social media

Tbh. Bite your lip. Apologise, be humble, say you will get help and people will forgive & FORGET and your career will survive.

I think it's gone too far for that he screwed himself by basically accusing middle class white women of ganging. up on him then apologising for saying it.

He has not helped himself I think in terms of the BBC he is done but well look at the number of so called celebs who have went to other channels who think the risky of high profile will help viewing figures.

As said its still all unfounded allegations as present

Absolutely. That tactic only works as a first move.... Or Jimmy Carr's

I agree he will probably go elsewhere but he will kick himself for losing his job over this.

The production company has now appointed independent lawyers to investigate the claims.

This may not be a criminal investigation buy will be interesting to see what the outcome is fellow chefs/hosts seem to be distancing themselves, claiming they must remain silent during the investigations.

See what happens next

Lets get this clarified before I say anything I have always considered Gregg Wallace to be a first class round drawer handle type.. But I have to say all these media companies and outlets really need to decide what behavioural standards are acceptable, or not.

Rightly or wrongly there is much furore about Wallace running into a room wearing nowt but a sock which is deemed uncceptable...

Yet we have the likes of Gino De whatsisname prancing around bollock naked on roadtrips wi fred and Gordon.. Jimmy Carr is a regular on TV but his stage shows contain some outrageous stuff but thats all ok, for now. Benny hill is openly lauded as a comedy genius but his sketches make Gregg Wallace look like an outright feminist..

If they are going to apply behaviour and morality standards then they must be universal and applied evenly.

I agree that there is no smoke without fire with this wallace thing , but Im not seeing hard and fast proof, lots of allegations some with a large dollop of heresay, but no solid proof. where are the vids, where are the voice recordings? in the last 20 years there must be some recordings somewhere?

As a sidenote Im putting money on Masterchef changing hands and ending up on Sky.. Murdoch and his empire make and break governments so why not break a presenter to buy a moneymaking TV franchise at bottom dollar.

One thing he will find out is, who his real friends are

Quite agree. But when standards and morals change ( no more Benny Hill or wolf whistles ) over time it can be hard for the BBC etc. to keep up.
Not saying they shouldn't have been doing more. Heaven knows they've had enough time, my £££ and examples of bad behaviour within the Corp.
