Today, we look at Gregg Wallace’s apology for suggesting allegations against him came from "a handful of middle-class women of a certain age". He stepped back from MasterChef last week after allegations were made that he had made inappropriate comments while working on the show. Wallace has denied behaviour of a sexually harassing nature. Culture and media editor Katie Razzall explains where it all leaves him, MasterChef, and the BBC. Plus, Sumi Somaskanda, chief anchor for BBC World, joins James to explain why President Biden has pardoned his son. Plus, what this means for Biden’s legacy as he prepares to leave office.
