The Chase fans in stitches over awkward Gregg Wallace question: ‘Whoops!’
The Chase viewers were left in disbelief when a question about disgraced MasterChef star Gregg Wallace featured on the show last night (February 12).
For the uninitiated, Gregg was axed from Celebrity MasterChef last year after being slapped with accusations of sending sexualised texts to a range of women dating back nearly two decades.
The celebrity chef strongly denies making inappropriate remarks. However, viewers were pretty shocked to hear his name on the popular quiz show on Wednesday night.

The Chase asks surprise Gregg Wallace question
On Wednesday’s episode of The Chase, the Final Chase included a question about Gregg.
Last night’s show, fronted by Bradley Walsh, featured The Governess Anne Hegerty as the Chaser. Two final contestants, Tony and Alex, were playing for £2,000 when the unexpected question was asked.
Bradley’s question to Anne was: “Which TV MasterChef host was a greengrocer?” The Governess seemed unsure when she wrongly guessed it to be John Torode, Gregg’s co-host.
However, Tony and Alex were more certain of the correct answer. They said: “We think it’s Gregg Wallace,” and it was correct, pushing the Chaser back a place.
Gregg did used to be greengrocer, and once ran his own fruits and vegetable business. He had even earned himself the nickname “Gregg the Veg”.

Viewers react
Chase fans were left in hysterics upon hearing a question about Gregg.
Reacting to the question, one viewer wrote on X: “Did someone say Gregg Wallace?!” Another viewer wrote: “Gregg Wallace has been cancelled so don’t count.”
When another quipped: “UH-OH a Gregg Wallace question. Can the verifiers please organise a Gino D’Acampo question for tomorrow?”
“Gregg Wallace. Whoops. How about Gino D’Acampo instead?” said another, both referring to the current scandal raging around Gino.
However, despite getting the Gregg Wallace question wrong, Anne didn’t slip up after that, sending Tony and Alex home empty-handed.
