FOCs will remember Hughie Green hosting Double You Money. Female contestants who granted him sexual favours before the show were given the answers in return.
In one of these encounters he fathered Paula Yates.

What I really hate with things like this is the pile on from people who have not said a word, like Sykes. Her claim that he is the reason she quit telly is pathetic, quite frankly.

Unsurprisingly, the papers have massively misrepresented what she actually said. She published a book in 2023 that included a chapter on how continually unchecked sexist and toxic behaviour made her become disillusioned with the entertainment industry. In it, she referenced Wallace's behaviour on MasterChef as an example of this. She raised it with the production company and decided she could no longer be bothered with the industry.

So, she hasn't piled on without saying a word; she flagged it at the time and wrote about it more than 18 months ago, long before these latest allegations surfaced. She also didn't say he was the reason she quit telly; she said his behaviour (among the behaviour of many others in the industry) contributed to a decision she was already contemplating making.

Far too many people going out of their way to be offended.

I’m offended by this in behalf of people who aren’t bothered, that’s how it works these days isn’t it.

What a few quid and good lawyers can do.
She did also admit to it.

As a rule you will find that the amount of judgement you get for a story and the acceptance in the legal outcome varies largely depending on the contents of your trousers/skirts.

Now that's how to run a quiz show.

Far too many people going out of their way to be offended.

If you're talking about the handful of posters falling over themselves to defend a weird entitled twat who is having to field some legitimate complaints for his own bad behaviour - then I'm inclined to agree with you

Lovely tale but completely untrue.
Elaine Smith/Heller Toren was not a contestant on his show. She was the wife of his then best friend, Jess Yates.
