Gregg Wallace accuser Aasmah Mir says John Torode showed 'no emotion' over offensive remark
  • Aasmah Mir, a former Celebrity MasterChef contestant, claims that John Torode showed no emotion when his co-host Gregg Wallace made an offensive comment about a BBC colleague.
  • Appearing on ITV's Good Morning Britain on Thursday, Mir, who competed in 2017, suggested that Torode had become accustomed to Wallace's behaviour.
  • She described Wallace's remark as "incredibly inappropriate" and said Torode “didn’t do anything”.
  • Mir said that while the blame for the comment lay entirely with Wallace, she found Torode's complete lack of reaction odd.
