I can name five high profile men like Gregg Wallace – so why aren’t they being exposed like MasterChef star?

CELEBRITY hindsight is always 20/20. Apparently “everyone” knew Gregg Wallace was a bit of wrong ’un — a dinosaur in a Tamagotchi age — and for over ten years not a peep, officially, was uttered. Season after season, “two Gs” Gregg was not only allowed back on BBC’s MasterChef, but given countless other opportunities both on and off air.

And now Great British Menu host Andi Oliver has given weight to what other stars including Kirsty Wark, Rod Stewart and Penny Lancaster have already claimed. Speaking about the women coming forward, Andi said: “I’m not surprised by it. “There’s a certain culture that allows it to happen.

“Somebody should have nipped that s**t in the bud a long time ago. “It’s not like nobody knew it was happening. “I heard stuff, everyone did. And there are tonnes of others who go around behaving badly.”. She’s right. I recently wrote about my experience on a journalists’ special of MasterChef in which Gregg didn’t do anything outlandishly bad, he was just, well, a bit of a knob.

So why didn’t I write it sooner?. Those pesky libel laws for a start and, well, we all have our bad days. I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t be gainfully employed if I was fired every time I was a bit of a knob. Although, to the best of my knowledge, I’ve never marauded around with a sock on my genitals, or flashed members of staff — as has been alleged of Gregg.
