D: Gregg Wallace’s co-host John Torode has been fired from BBC’s “MasterChef” following an investigation that substantiated an allegation he used racist language in the workplace, marking the second major dismissal to emerge from the comprehensive probe into the show’s culture.

John Torode has been sacked as MasterChef presenter after an allegation against him using "an extremely offensive racist term" was upheld.

However, I want to be clear that I've always had the view that any racial language is wholly unacceptable in any environment.
