I thought there was a mountain of DEI that workplaces have in place these days? How come he didn't know he was being offensive?? Meetings, courses, video chats about conduct in the workplace? Don't know how he avoided all of that especially at the Beeb.
DEI are as effective as speed awareness courses. Makes it look like they’re addressing the issue but people don’t really change.

Some interesting things on the Celebrity thread, including the Greggggggggggggg experience of a male friend of Vanessa.

Interesting statement by John Torode. You know what I could never understand? On Masterchef there was an actual chef presenter and GW the vegetable man who did far more 'presenting' than JT did - he seems to spend more time in the background. I also don't understand why a man on the show wouldn't speak out against GW - it's obvious why women don't but surely some of the men working on the shows GW has been on know his alleged conduct is unacceptable? My husband saw him on the news on Sunday making his middle class women of a certain age diatribe and said "stop talking" (to GW!) as he couldn't believe what he was hearing. I know he'd stick up for women, why don't other men?

I wonder why Monica wouldn’t say anything. Poor woman seems to get all the knobheads to work with

Statement by John Torode...more interesting what he doesn't say rather than actually says. No defence for Greg whatsoever.
I understand that he can't say anything much now, but I have to wonder was he complete unaware of that toad's sleazy behaviour?

I would think he probably raised concerns but was told it’s just Gregg being Gregg. No one has complained.
It would explain why he said they never were friends

Eh? He worked alongside him and obviously wasn't bothered that he offended the contestants or we would have heard about it. Why the silence from someone who would have been listened to? What a hypocrite!

He said they were never friends and didn't go to each others houses but then he was best man at Gregggg's wedding in 2019.

I thought John Torode said as much as he could say really whilst an investigation is ongoing.

We’ve always joked in my household that they seem not to even be in the same room during the segments where they’re supposed to be talking to each other.
I think it’s clear they don’t like each other much.

Can’t explain the best man thing though - publicity for the show? Greggggg had no real friends to ask?

I think it is possible he didn’t witness it all - I mean Monica Galetti has been working with GW for years also, and I don’t believe for a minute she’d witness his behaviour and say nothing - I think sometimes people are clever when they’re intimidating people - they know not to push it when others are around.

Maybe this is just me trying too hard to believe they’re not all bad ‘uns 🤷‍♀️
