Too many fingers in too many pies clearly.

I like pies

I like pies

But not ones that have been fingered.

Seems like there are plenty of people defending him in certain quarters, I always thought the guy was a scum and it seems like I was right.

Why is it always the ones you suspect?

But he's not the next Jimmy Saville. I know that's a low bar but he didn't physically assault anyone.

Jesus Glyn, don't do it mate, I taunted a few and was obliterated.

What does Stephen Fry make of Gregg Wallace's recent behaviour?

And how does it speak to the wider culture in the media?#KayBurley SG pic.twitter.com/2RUspB0LVw

And quite rightly so.

So with that logic a sexual predator needs to physically assault someone in order for the victim to be taken seriously?

I really don't like the bloke, always found him creepy, but is there evidence he is a sexual predator, or is he just a misogynistic twat? I really don't like trial by media nor the equivalences being drawn with much more serious offenders. I'm not saying this should be trivialised or ignored, 'men' like this need to face up and grow up and understand the effect their behaviour has on others.

BBC or production company should have addressed and killed this years ago. I'd imagine they are all still shit scared of 'the talent' and killing their golden geese.

I'm not saying that Wallace is in anyway shape or form a sexual predator. I'm not in control of all the facts to make that judgement. The allegations against him and they are just allegations do have a sexual context to them.

My original response highlighting that you don't need to physically assault someone to be a sexual predator and a victim is a victim regardless of physical harm being involved.

This is my last comment on this rather disturbing thread.

How did you jump to that conclusion? Saying that he isn't Jimmy Saville doesn't mean that victims shouldn't be taken seriously, but there are different levels of offence, which should be judged on their own merits. I don't see why this is front page news all this week.

Actually rereading Smurph's comment I seem to be in agreement with him, so I'll stop talking as well.
