The story keeps changing Sky News said he made the comment at work..:umm2:

there have been all sorts of stories about Torode over the years, so this really isn't a new revelation. I think with these type of shows, the BBC has very little day to day involvement. All the work is contracted out to a production company. I honestly think the issue here is the BBC really messed up at the concert they were in full control of, so they are now saying to the public ..... look over there it's much more interesting

Nice but dim Tim has had his say

BBC director-general Tim Davie has condemned the “serious racist term” used by presenter John Torode, after it was announced his contract on MasterChef will not be renewed. Australian-born Torode, 59, started presenting MasterChef alongside Gregg Wallace in 2005.

On Monday night, Torode confirmed he was the subject of an allegation of using racist language that was upheld as part of a review carried out by law firm Lewis Silkin into the alleged behaviour of his co-presenter Wallace. Torode broke his silence on his sacking on social media this evening.

In an interview with BBC News on Tuesday, Davie said he saw the situation as an opportunity for the corporation to “reset”. He said he was not directly involved with the matter but was told about the recommendation not to renew Torode’s contract and was “happy that the team were taking action”

He went on: “It’s really important that we are taking this seriously. It’s a reset where we make sure that people are living up to the values we expect across the board.”

…the BBC/Masterchef producers are the ones who look worst/awful in this as it’s taken them 7 years to take action on something that they deemed to be ‘extremely offensive’…

i think it went a bit like this .... the bbc bosses said we need to distract the public from what happened at glastonbury, give us some dirt on someone else to change the story

A £2 billion pound cock up !!
They should name and shame the person to blame for that huge data leak

But bizarrely won't even give us what he allegedly even said.

Imo the BBC should be in trouble for damaging someone's reputation with zero evidence.

Hang on its says he said it "at work"

No, he said it, as I understand it, in a pub and "person I was speaking with did not believe that it was intended in a malicious way and that I apologised immediately afterwards".

In a pub isn't at work?

yeah I said this yesterday, Sky reported it as being at work, when it had previously been reported as a social situation, its a complete stitch up and apart from that he found out on social media he had been sacked, what a great way to treat long standing members of the 'BBC family'

at the end of the day, they aren't sacking him, they are just not renewing his contract, so the whole thing is being done to distract

Imo it makes these allegations worse.

Because at least if they were sacking him, it would make sense as to why they're trying to assassinate his character.

But not technically sacking him whilst accusing him of something without a shred of evidence is a low blow from the BBC.

They honestly need to provide some proof, otherwise heads should roll imo.

We have Defamation laws for a reason.

Torode has a long list of allegations against him in Australia, so he isn't a good guy in this. Him and Wallace were an unpleasant pair, but they brought in money for the BBC. Now, not so much so they are expendible.

Really, people need to stop being so easily led by distraction

What's Australia's case against Torode?

Women have complained about him there

Realistically he enabled Wallace

Fair enough about that.

Especially if it's plural.

According to Wallace, it was his Autism.:joker:

Masterchef was getting stale anyway. Didn't watch the last couple. So it probably should be axed now.

He wants War
with the BBC

He has a weekend show with his wife
on ITV, who back him.

I agree with you about the Show getting stale.

Maybe a bit of Gregg nudity would've added a bit of spice to the programme.:joker:

the only Masterchef i watch these days, is Masterchef Australia



the choices made who gets eliminated or goes through in the UK version i always found kinda weird either, compared to the Australian version, where they are much more strict to only let the best of the best advance, but also offering way more variety of challenges, in terms of the ''guest judge vs contestant cook off'' or the elimination pressure test, for the bottom 5



even the US version has more excitement to it, with Gordon Ramsay in the judge panel (Gordon btw has been a guest judge on the australian version too last few recent seasons, he even had to judge his daughter Tilly, on the celebrity version there :laugh:)

There you go Mock......

Thanks for the link, Arista.:)

My view personally is that I'm personally not too bothered about the Rap, as after all Kanye shouldn't be putting lyrics in his songs that he doesn't want certain groups to Rap about.

However, I do think that him casually dropping the N-word in casual chat (allegedly) is obviously not a good thing imo.

i don't use the n word, but i do think its ridiculous that a section of society can use it with impunity and others lose their jobs for saying it. Where is the equality

he sung along to a popular chart song??

absolute witch hunt

the BBC are a national disgrace

why anyone pays their licence now is a mystery

What's the N-word?

I won't be saying it.:laugh:
