Fury as ‘childish' BBC axe HALF of shamed Gregg Wallace's recipes from web in ‘stupid cancellation' after MasterChef axe
HALF of Gregg Wallace's recipes have vanished from the BBC Food website — leaving many of its users steaming. Six of the fallen grocer 's 11 dish ideas have been axed since he was sacked from MasterChef last month. 3 His 'comforting' special sausage and lentil soup, 'delightfully simple' mince pie ice-cream and a raspberry pavlova are gone. A raspberry marinated rack of lamb and a leek and potato soup are also missing since a damning report into the 60-year-old's behaviour. One site user railed at 'another stupid cancellation by the BBC '. They added: 'Whatever you think of the guy, it was hardly his recipes that were the problem.' Another, Claire, added: 'Seems childish. I'm never going to stop listening to Michael Jackson.' Ed Campbell added online: 'Can't we separate the art from the artist?' All the dishes had featured on shows Wallace fronted, as did some still on the website such as his pork and apple burger. Nearly 50 women made complaints about Wallace but the worst allegations, including groping and flashing, were not upheld. Last month, he told The Sun: 'I'm not a groper, a sex pest or a flasher. 'So much has been perceived incorrectly.' The BBC said it was standard practice to update BBC Food website recipes and those from a range of chefs had been taken down recently. 3

Paddy McGuinness calls out 'cowboy builders' over a 'job gone wrong' in furious rant
Paddy McGuinness has called out 'cowboy builders' after having work done on the garden of his Cheshire mansion. The TV and radio star, 52, took to his TikTok page with a furious rant, sharing a clip that also displayed the damage to his backyard. The Take Me Out star denounced the company which fitted an artficial lawn, claiming that weeds have been growing on the fake grass. Paddy recorded himself in the clip and then proceeded to show more than 20 different weeds growing through the artificial surface, explaining the problems began about five months ago. 'Job's gone wrong,' he said in the video before branding the workers 'f*****g cowboys'. The presenter explained he attempted to get back in touch with the company, claiming they didn't respond to his phone calls nor emails. 'Why's everyone out to shaft you,' he said in the clip. 'Can no one just offer a service and it be right? 'Listen, if you've used a company who lay these kind of lawns and you're happy with it, let me know. 'I don't want to put it down again if it's going to be screwed in another year or two and changing colour and weeds everywhere and dips in it and all that pony.' The screen alum finished up: 'Please someone, I don't want it for nothing, do not want it for nothing, no tagging in, get in touch. 'I'll pay you, do a fantastic job and be gone and let me know how to do the upkeep.' Paddy's clip comes after he enjoyed a lavish holiday with his ex wife Christine McGuinness and their twins Leo and Penelope, and daughter Felicity last week. Paddy showcased his ripped physique as he celebrated his 52nd birthday during the lavish family holiday this week. Taking to Instagram on Friday, the comedian and presenter flaunted his chiseled abs as he posed shirtless in the mirror for a selfie in his lavish hotel in Mallorca. The father of three appeared elated as he celebrated the special day alongside his children sharing snaps with his cake and presents. Paddy holidayed with his ex wife Christine as they posed alongside airport staff ahead of the trip in another snap. Christine and Paddy announced their split in 2022 but have continued to co-parent and live together for the sake of their three children, who are all autistic. Alongside his post, he penned: 'Just got back from a glorious five days in the sunshine. My kids made birthday gifts, we had lots of lovely food, drink and a tan that would make @ proud! 'Met some wonderful families at @zafirohotels and had a belting, relaxed time. Big shout out to the mighty @manairportuk in particular Samantha Richardson and Jane McBride. 'Two wonderful ladies who made a last minute check in stress free. They put all our kids at ease. ❤️ 'The lanyard scheme worked both at Manchester and Palma coming back. ✈️ Back home now, chippy tea and an early night for everyone!!!'

Love Is Blind UK star who was CUT from show revealed despite getting engaged in pods
A LOVE Is Blind UK star has revealed that they got engaged in the pods – though their connection wasn't seen on screen. The Netflix dating experiment returned last week with 15 new men and 15 new women entering the "pods" in a bid to find love with someone without ever seeing them. 5 5 Participants only get to meet their match once they get engaged – and from there it's a six week whirlwind to the finish line including romantic getaways, living together, and meeting loved ones. However, with so many connections there to be formed, not everyone gets to make it past the initial stages, even if they put a ring on it. Typically on a Love Is Blind season, up to five couples are followed past the initial stages. And one star – Ross Millington – has revealed he was one of the unlucky people who were halted from continuing the process. As TikTok blew up with analysing the first episode, one fan spoke about Ross's brief appearance on the show. While he was rarely seen in the pods, he was shown chatting with the lads in the men's lounge as he went through the process – speaking to Kai (who did make it through to the next stage) and Demola (who was snubbed by potential match Katisha in favour of Javen in the process). Ross, a 30-year-old barber shop owner at the time of the series being filmed, jumped in on one fans TikTok asking more about him. "That was me," he noted as she pointed him out. "I didn't make it to Greece unfortunately. Reveal went well though." Ross didn't elaborate further, but as he went through a "reveal" it is safe to assume he at least got engaged. A grab of the comment was later posted to Reddit, with fans dissecting who the lucky woman could be. Love Is Blind UK star storms off show and says 'get this mic off me' after branding co-star 'disrespectful' in fiery rant "Good thing he didnt make it to Greece, as they went to Cyprus," joked one. "I counted 2 guys and 2 gals during the "I'm engaged" scenes that had zero screen time," said another. "They are still around during those moments and I would assume they may have ended up as a couple but were not picked to go to Cyprus. "Makes you wonder if their connection was boring/lack of drama to not be picked over Javen and Katisha...." "I've never understood why they pick some and not the others and then don't edit it down more in post production if necessary," said a third. Love Is Blind UK continues Wednesday on Netflix. 5 5 5
