In the Black Mirror of Gregg Wallace's life he is sat at home, career in ruins, watching this video to remind him of the good ol' days and reading this comment, while eating a chicken and mushroom Pot Noodle with no shirt on
They should make that episode, that's the black mirror I want, razor sharp satire and controversy, imagine the shit storm "black mirror controversial episode gone too far" then there could be an episode about Charlie writing it and getting cancelled for writing it and he ends up living with Greg and they're both watching the new black mirror writing by Miranda.
[Charlie] Brooker (the writer and presenter of the show from which this clip taken) [is] a (one, singular) decade (a period of ten years) ahead (in terms of relevance; perhaps prophetic, due to recent allegations against Gregg Wallace) as per usual (inferring Charlie Brooker has made many similarly unexpectedly predictive pieces in the past).
This actually encouraged me to start buying frozen sausages just so I could say to myself “How many bags?” in an incredulous Gregg Wallace voice as I wantonly lobbed them into my trolley.
"Look at all this food they have in their cupboard!" Yes Greg, that's what cupboards are for, storing food. Now, hopefully the pandemic has taught us having a bit of surplus in isn't a bad idea, and this being 9 years old hasn't aged well. That and it has Greg Wallace in it.
Wish this was still on, just the best observational TV programme. Als, introduced me to some comedy legends such as Diane Morgan, Tim Key and Doug Stanhope.
I watched the film Soylent Green recently. Imagine an impoverished future Britain in a world where climate change has ruined agriculture; Greggs the baker will be put in charge of feeding the country with a processed food supposedly harvested from the ocean, but it will in fact consist of Gregg Wallace clones bred solely to feed humanity. The clones will have to be contained in a soundproof room prior to their deaths so that they can neither sexually harass nor bore to death the workers at the clone factory.
The researcher(s) who found so many Greg Wallace clips deserve a credit... and a very long lie down. Goodness knows how many hours of recordings they trawled through to produce such a consummate Greg-a-thon. No, I don't understand his ubiquity either.
Yeah this clip was the first thing I thought of when I heard they'd received so many complaints over the years. Nothing was gonna really stick to their golden boy if he was in so many of their shows.
New BBC game show “Know your nonce” where contestants have to identify a BBC wrong ‘un by matching their salary with the level of sanction they received after falling from greatness.
The montage at the end is a perfect example of how TV (especially quiz shows) will advertise the latest "star" by just ramming their name down your throat. It just makes me think of the Alan partridge knowing me knowing yule bit where he's "subtly" advertising the rover
I wish Brooker went back to do these again. Genuinely miss this show. He did the occasional end of year ones before Black Mirror took over everything he did. I need it for my weekly catharisis of hating snarkily and pointing and laughing at everyone and everything while sitting at home... all alone.
It speaks volumes about Britain that the BBC thinks that what people want to watch is two wealthy celebrities lecturing poor people for buying frozen sausages and baked beans of all the massively expensive things.
Wallace is horrible, but I think you might have missed the point of the show. They are supposed to be saving them money and they are going out and buying things they already have at home. Some people really are that stupid. Besides, if they really are spending £13 grand on groceries, they aren't poor. Even if they have several kids, that's ridiculous.
I still spend a huge amount of time switching channels just to escape Greg Wallace. I also spend a huge amount of time switching channels to try and find more Charlie Brooker.
this is brilliant. The BBC makes some trash shows since they want to stretch their funds, then pay charlie brooker to make fun of those shows, stretching their funds even further, and producing quality TV on top of those awfully boring shows they produce anyway!
Haha, yes. I have watched almost zero TV for the past 20 years but I’m still well aware of who Greg Wallace is! I have to add though, a friend of mine used to work for him before he became a TV star and tells me he was a really good bloke/good boss.
I hadn't given that a thought. You've made me depressed. Fucking shitey shitty world. I live in the UK, I have to put up with these cunts........endlessly.......and there's fucking loads of them....i'm not a man of faith but gawd give me strength
Looking back this has to be some sort of Lee and Herring "Savile wink nudge" type bit about Brooker knowing the rumours about Gregg Wallace. Just saying his name over and over. He knew he was the "unnamed tv chef who w*nked a baguette" for a start!!
Nobody ever seems to mention that the producers of these shows are obviously working with the supermarkets because otherwise they wouldn't let them film there...
I’m looking for the clip where Charlie Brooker had a section interviewing production runners, the one where a female runner spoke about chef show she worked on and the male host came in whilst they were cleaning up and started pretending that a baguette or something was his c--, waving it around. I’m not saying its him but now I REALLY wonder who it was…
I feel bad now, I watched my parents house & bro after living alone and when I saw their cupboards (slightly) passive-aggressively left all the stuff that was past its use by date in the middle of their floor to make the point, that they probably bought stuff they already had over time. Then again I didn't make a tv show out of it.
This is the modern equivalent of the pathe information films where a posh man told working class people stuff like not to eat glass or let a woman drive
It's weird living in 2020 with a diet of Netflix and Amazon Prime, looking back at Charlie Brooker doing a run down on how much Greg Wallace the BBC stuffs into every delicious morsel, and realising just how unreasonably shit and cheap British TV always looks. Whether you're watching a tedious soap filmed with a telescoping lens from the other side of the country, a bombastic investigatory documentary made by an out-of-work 1960s Yugoslav propaganda crew, or a heavily-padded game show with on-screen graphics fresh from a twenty-year-old copy of some forgotten shareware editing program, the BBC seems determined to remind you that license fee went entirely to cocaine and, if it exists, racist cocaine.
Anyone else’s algorithm been given this in December 2024?
Yup! Haha
Says “Yeeeeeaahh” in Wallace algorithm
Surely not "my" algorithm, just general trending garbage. Mr Wallace always reminds me of Hugh Dennis's James Bond on Mock of the week.
I think it's because of a waychmojo thing that mentioned it
yep!
Come back Charlie , miss your shows so much ❤
Hopefully we get an end of year wipe.
I know right? At least new year's wipe....
It’s been way way too long
Yes to all this, I looked forward to New Year’s Eve because of his wipe 😂

Nah you just lob them in your trolley, then a few minutes later put them back in the freezer cabinet. Saves having to eat them.
"Look at all this food they have in their cupboard!" Yes Greg, that's what cupboards are for, storing food. Now, hopefully the pandemic has taught us having a bit of surplus in isn't a bad idea, and this being 9 years old hasn't aged well. That and it has Greg Wallace in it.

I challenge the BBC to explain why they thought Greg was valuable enough to give him a twenty year career.
Because lots of people watched the shows he was on and didn't write in to complain about him. There, I've told you instead. Enjoy your weekend.

That's another 20,000 hours of content the BBC can never show again. You'd have thought they'd have learned by now.
It speaks volumes about Britain that the BBC thinks that what people want to watch is two wealthy celebrities lecturing poor people for buying frozen sausages and baked beans of all the massively expensive things.
Wallace is horrible, but I think you might have missed the point of the show. They are supposed to be saving them money and they are going out and buying things they already have at home. Some people really are that stupid. Besides, if they really are spending £13 grand on groceries, they aren't poor. Even if they have several kids, that's ridiculous.
Not to mention the taste reviews of different tea bags, definitely prime time quality TV!
'' have a spoon full of sumac... And a sausage''. Brooker I love you
Beans Beans Beans ! Gregg has spilt his beans everywhere.
It's spelt Greggg
First thing I thought of after seeing the news about Gregg. Now what're the BBC going to do without him as a multipurpose supply-host??
2015 : "you cant complain about how much Greg Wallace you are getting"
2024 : hold my beer...
Onions onions what you gonna do
alalalalaalalala

I still spend a huge amount of time switching channels just to escape Greg Wallace. I also spend a huge amount of time switching channels to try and find more Charlie Brooker.

And Wallace isn't even a chef. He's just a professional complainer about food.
Yeah shame Gregg has a successful marriage 🤷♂️
It's canned food! It doesn't fucking matter if you buy it now or later!
I know, right? That bit didn't make any sense...
I think they're survivalists.
So they have multiple cans of beans that last a long time - who the fuck cares?
Nom du Clavier not really, prices can change, recipes can change, it can go out of date after awhile
Also beans is healthy and cheap, particularly non-baked beans beans. So I don't really understand what they were mad at.
