Gregg Wallace, the BBC and the MeToo movement

Dec 2, 2024 · 28m

Masterchef presenter Gregg Wallace has just issued an apology for 'any offence caused' after he blamed middle class women for coming forward to complain about his over sexualised banter in the work place. Just to be clear, that's not an apology for the sex stuff. Just for the instagram post. He also told us he felt 'under siege' for just being Gregg on Masterchef. What does this episode tell us about victim blaming and victimisation, about work places that profess 'zero tolerance', and about the health of the Me Too movement more than a decade after it all began. Later, Biden has decided to pardon his son Hunter to spare him prison. Has he opened himself to ridicule and charges of hypocrisy? Or revealed how little faith he has in the fairness of the justice system under Trump. Voicenotes from contributors in this episode were voiced by producers.
