TV fans were taken aback to catch a glimpse of Gregg Wallace on their screens this weekend in a weather-centric special. The 60-year-old presenter stepped back from his BBC roles in November following an investigation into accusations of abusive behaviour during his time on the popular series MasterChef.Gregg has consistently denied these claims, and since the finale of MasterChef: The Professionals last December, he hasn't appeared on television.
His Christmas specials were also pulled as the probe was set to begin, leading many to speculate he may never return to the broadcaster, especially as Grace Dent has already stepped into his Masterchef shoes, the Mirror reports.,However, viewers who tuned into Channel 5 this weekend saw Gregg in a new light as he featured in a documentary about the severe cold spell that struck the UK in 2018, titled Beast from the East: The Big Freeze of 2018.
Alongside stars such as actress Laila Morse, Countryfile's Adam Henson, and BBC meteorologist Tomasz Schafernaker, Gregg gave an interview for the show, which aired at 5pm on Saturday.His appearance left many stunned; one viewer commented on social media: "Gregg Wallace on Beast from the East?
Bold move. His reputation's already been through a storm."Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today.You'll receive daily updates on breaking news as well as the top headlines across Scotland.No one will be able to see who is signed up and no one can send messages except the Daily Record team.All you have to do is click here if you're on mobile, select 'Join Community' and you're in!If you're on a desktop, simply scan the QR code above with your phone and click 'Join Community'.We also treat our
