Why can't these TV personalities just act properly? They get great money and status and they act like morons.
How sad he lost his job for singing a song….
Pure witch hunt
Edwards caused all this tbh
BBC Panorama
BBC Paranoid
They hunted down Jenas also
Punished for Edwards, that really embarrased the BBC that disgusting behaviour – watching 10pm news and there talking abt the lead 10pm news presenter, I think that totally freaked the BBC out to this very day tbh that was in the heart of the BBC, now there just chucking everyone out at even a hint even very low key matters that are probably not even factual – Crazy
England needs a complete restoration, even some of our own need to go.
Oh FFS
Master letch
Cancel culture wokism at its worst
A large number of people are reporting that Torode's offence was "singing along to Gold Digger by Kanye West during after-work drinks in a pub". You can look up the lyrics if you want to know what offensive terms this involves.
An state schooled immigrant singing a song by a black foreigner? No wonder the Beeb wants to get rid of him.
He was rapping along to the Kanye west song Gold Digger btw 😂
so he sang along to something that's being played in a pub or something?
Ridiculous, he's such a decent man with integrity. Poor Lisa must be furious about this , they're a devoted couple. 💞
The same BBC who broadcasted “in sickness and in health” in the 70s/80’s when I was growing up, then demonised me for raving in the 90’s
Ridiculous on both presenters accounts..its out with olds on verbal allegations and in with the woke
BBC is nothing but a disgrace
He's not been sacked he's being deliberately replaced by a wokey BBC foreign person. The BBC have just killed of master shef in one act of insanity and spite. When will someone sack the idiot tom Davey.
Clearly a hit job, they just wanted an excuse to sack him. Shame on them.
Three strikes to boycott TV Licence.
1. Jimmy Savile
2. Huw Edwards
3. Masterchef
Would be good to see Ainsley Harriott as John's replacement.
What a load of Crap!
We've dropped down the barrel if this guy is a star wowza
