Gregg Wallace’s replacement on Inside The Factory is REVEALED – after MasterChef star denied he left BBC show due to derogatory comments to female staff<\/h2>\n

Gregg Wallace’s replacement as presenter of BBC Two show Inside The Factory was revealed on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

BBC Factual announced that\u00a0Paddy McGuinness is to be the new presenter of the popular series, taking over from\u00a0the MasterChef star, 58.<\/p>\n

Paddy, 50, excitedly said: ‘One of my first jobs was in a factory so I\u2019ve come full circle.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘I\u2019m fascinated by the machinery and the people who make it all tick. Hair nets aside, I can\u2019t wait to get cracking!’<\/p>\n

Paddy formerly hosted Take Me Out and has since fronted Top Gear, I Can See Your Voice and\u00a0A Question Of Sport.<\/p>\n

Departure:\u00a0Gregg Wallace’s replacement as presenter of BBC Two show Inside The Factory was revealed on Tuesday<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

New face:\u00a0BBC Factual announced that Paddy McGuinness is to be the new presenter of the popular series, taking over from the MasterChef star, 58<\/p>\n

He will join fellow\u00a0presenters Cherry Healey and historian Ruth Goodman for the ninth series,\u00a0which will go into production later this year, to air in 2024.<\/p>\n

Jack Bootle, Head of Commissioning, Specialist Factual, said: ‘Inside the Factory is one of the BBC\u2019s best-loved Factual brands.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘It deserves to have a big star at the helm – so I\u2019m unbelievably excited that Paddy is putting on his white coat and rising to the challenge.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘He has a passion for production and engineering that\u2019s impossible to fake. Working alongside current presenters Cherry Healey and Ruth Goodman, I know Paddy will bring new energy to this joyful series. I can\u2019t wait to see him in action.’<\/p>\n

It comes after Gregg confirmed he was leaving the show earlier this year and told how an issue prompted him to leave, but did not give any more details.<\/p>\n

It was then reported he had allegedly offended certain female staff members at the Nestl\u00e9 UK factory with comments about their weight during a ‘friendly’ conversation.<\/p>\n

However, Gregg later denied the claims\u00a0and told how they weren’t ‘accurate’, and also told how he wanted to leave to help care for his\u00a0autistic son Sid, three.<\/p>\n

Appearing on Good Morning Britain\u00a0earlier this month, the presenter stated that such claims were ‘inaccurate’.<\/p>\n

Departure:\u00a0It comes after Gregg confirmed he was leaving the show earlier this year and told how an issue prompted him to leave, but did not give any more details<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

‘There was an argument inside the factory, the reporting isn’t accurate. There was an issue and I thought this is the perfect time to come out,’ he said.<\/p>\n

‘Offending people? No no. If you look at the headlines you can’t see a story that matches those headlines.’<\/p>\n

Gregg also revealed that he also wanted to leave to help care for his three-year-old son Sid, who is autistic.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Explaining his home situation, he shared: ‘I’ve got a little boy called Sid who at the moment is non-verbal, he is still in nappies, he’s got learning difficulties….Mum needed help there.’\u00a0<\/p>\n

He revealed that the demanding nature of the filming around the different factories across the country meant that it made sense to give it up.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘There was nothing offensive to anybody that’s just people guessing.\u00a0It was a decent time to come out, I think,’ he added.<\/p>\n

It was reported by The Times in May that he allegedly offended certain female staff members at the Nestl\u00e9 UK factory in York with comments about their weight during a ‘friendly’ conversation.<\/p>\n

‘He was rude towards staff and continued to talk in a derogatory manner, especially to women,’ a source told the newspaper.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Moving on: Gregg appeared to putting the drama behind him however, as he was spotted looking cheerful on Tuesday having lunch with a male pal<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Smoking: He sat outside at popular London restaurant Scott’s and was seen puffing away on a large cigar<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Dashing:\u00a0He cut a dapper figure in a pair of black smart trousers and a light blue shirt, teamed with black loafers<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Having a good time: Gregg embraced his friend at the table and appeared in high spirits as he smoked and waved at the cameras<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Exit: Gregg presented Inside The Factory for seven years before his departure from the hosting role earlier this year<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Series: The factual programme delves into how goods are made and takes a look at food production lines in factories around the UK<\/p>\n

The alleged comments were non-sexual but were deemed ‘inappropriate’ and a complaint was reportedly lodged with Voltage TV, the production company responsible for developing the show.<\/p>\n
