BTW (journalists) the first episode of the new series of Masterchef with John Torode and Gregg Wallace is on iPlayer www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...
It's the start of the 2025 competition, bringing together the UK's best amateur cooks, but only one can win the coveted MasterChef trophy.
Gregg and Torode are very much in it, but all the “banter” is cut out and it’s mostly them saying what the contestants are cooking and how it all tastes.
Making it palatable. They should have just replaced Wallace with an AI Christopher Plummer. Pretty sure they could do that for next to nothing.
Also starting this week is the far more engaging Masterchef Australia, available in the UK on W.
Hats off to the editing guys.
Did they use AI to put Gregg's trousers back on?
