Saw the news wow what a disgusting wick- sounds like karma has been a long time coming- good for those who have spoken out- I don’t watch his programmes usually but Family Fortunes was always a favourite of mine and he made a complete duck up of that- bring back Les or Vern I say

So it has taken 14 year for one woman to come forward. The others that have come forward are more recent. IWhen I first heard I thought OMG another one, but come on. He's smutty, he can be a bit over the top but ruining a man's career ?? Keith Lemon will be the next one to be accused. I think it's ridiculous. We are adults if you don't like what someone says move on.

Oh no, another poor man's career ruined because women don't want to put up with his crappy behaviour?

Yeah he's a gob and over the top but smutty words. Stand up for yourself, tell him where to go. Some of these accusations are from 14 year ago. We lived in a different world 14 year ago. I used to work in a pub. The smut we heard!!. Think these complaints are more about £££ signs.

I remember watching a program called ' grumpy old men ' on BBC 2 years ago. Different men talking all things from stuff that annoyed them to things they like . He was on he said, he had seen a girl in her school uniform at a bus stop and ' I would have done time for her ' . Since then I could watch him at all I've told anyone who mentioned him .

Is anyone genuinely shocked by this? He was best buddies with Philth and Holly for years. The world of TV is literally a cesspool. Would hate to think what sick things the senior bosses get up to

I don't think he was best buddies with Schofield. I remember once he said something that obviously crossed a line and he was warned "too far Gino, too far....." or something like that by PS and he got a very stern look. It sticks out in my mind as it was so awkward and uncomfortable.

I think the point is that they're saying crude stuff OFF camera whereas Keith Lemon's act is on camera. (Unless you know different).

You must know full well saying things like that to people (specifically women) is not on. I like banter but I don't want to know about any man's willy, balls or bumhole. It's the workplace not kindergarten and saying it to someone to intimidate or embarrass them is bullying.

Remember when he cooked on This Morning nude? Vile

We went into a hotel in Leeds that had his restaurant inside and I said to my friend that he cooked on TM just wearing just a pinny with his bum showing and she laughed and said I was telling porkies. I had to find an internet pic before she would believe me. Just sent her the link to ITV and see what she has to say about that as she thinks he is wonderful. I couldn't believe how many women of a certain age were queing up to see him at a cookery show we went to.

You must be lost. Daily Mail comments that way

 

[Angelesque]

…now will someone confirm if he delivered his vile, crass comments in an English or Italian accent? No-one’s been able to confirm if the accent is hammed up for show, have they?

Bloody delighted these arrogant holes who thought they could say and do anything they liked are falling down one by one.

 

[ZeldaPinwheel]

I find it very telling that he behaved that way with young women that sound like they were just starting out in their careers and not every one either, just enough so that he has plausible deniability and can gaslight that they were the problem and not him.

I bet that the anonymous people defending him are men and women that he perceived as higher in the hierarchy so less likely to put up with his obscene behaviour meaning he treated them with respect.

I hope the vile little git gets his comeuppance and his wife divorces him. I honestly don't know how she's tolerated him for as long as she has.

 

[MrsBsDayOff]

I never liked him. Found him over the top and irritating, and came across as knowing very little about food! Didn't like that he robbed Paul Young's house either, although I didn't have him down as a sexual predator.

It was Grouchy Young Men - watched it recently on Apple TV and his comments haven’t been edited out. They will be soon though!

 

[Sakkiedekock]

Lead story on GMB now.
Ironic that Kate Griftaway talking about it considering what Derek used to get up to.

Someone has to clip that quick smart.

Yeah think they don't different programs all off the same type of program format? I'm glad you seen it aswell I posted my comment I thought wonder if I've remembered that wrong, doubted myself . But it's stayed with me all those yrs he's made my teeth itch

Smutty words? He told a young colleague that he wanted to bend her over a counter and duck her up the a. In front of a room full of people. Do you think this is acceptable ‘banter’? In the workplace? If so, you have a serious problem.

 

[VeeJayBee]

I remember thinking a while back that something was up with him for a couple of reasons. He kept popping up over-explaining why he was no longer doing the Gordon/Fred thing, some crap that it was too difficult with everyone's schedules, it made the contracts too complicated and because he valued his friendship with them he bowed out.



A while before he was given a warning by UK Border Force when sniffer dogs found cannabis in his luggage when he flew into Farnborough Airport with Fred and Gordon, on the latter's private jet after filming in Spain: "Officers accepted it was for his own medicinal use - not intended for anybody else -and issued him with a warning. Gino was stopped, cautioned and fined for possession of a prohibitive substance, namely cannabis." He wouldn't have risked that on a commercial flight but presumably thought he'd get away with it flying private, so arrogant and entitled. With his previous criminal record (two years in prison for burglary and handling stolen goods) you'd think they'd be tougher on him.

And there was a more recent interview where he said he now spends most of time in his home in Sicily or Sardinia, wherever, as most of his work is now writing cookbooks (who buys his basic-witch recipes?) - methinks he wanted to keep his head down knowing things were brewing back in Blighty.

Why are ITV actually leading with this when they covered up others in the past like BBC
