The accusations against Greg are coming in thick and fast , and across multiple programmes he’s involved in.

Yes,we never liked him….some horrible bullying allegations as well as sexual comments etc

he has stepped back from the show, good news,yet again the tv companies didn’t investigate at the time.

The BBC should consider pausing MasterChef while Gregg Wallace is investigated, an MP has suggested.

Rupa Huq, who is also a member of the Culture, Media and Sport Committee, said the continued broadcast of MasterChef could be "triggering" for the women involved.

Speaking to BBC Radio 4's Today, she said: "I think possibly there is an argument for pausing while this investigation takes its course, and maybe not airing it tonight."

It is quite possible that the rest of this series of MasterChef: The Professionals and the two festive specials will not be shown. It's also possible that the BBC will remove all past episodes of the various series of MasterChef from iplayer.

I've seen the end part of Thursday's episode and know who the four finalists are. I've done that so, in the event of the series being dropped from the schedules, I would be able to tell you who the four are. The episodes for the final week are not available to watch at this time.

Downing Street has now said that Wallace's comments yesterday were "inappropriate and misogynistic".

No 10 has also confirmed Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy held talks with BBC bosses in the wake of the row about his behaviour.

Asked whether MasterChef should be taken off air, the prime minister's official spokesperson said: "It's right that a thorough investigation is conducted. Obviously that's for the BBC and the production company."
