Dan Merriman, 29, has been awarded the prestigious title of MasterChef: The Professionals Champion 2024.
Gregg Wallace made what could be his final appearance on MasterChef on Thursday night after 19 years presenting the BBC show.
During Monday's episode, viewers were convinced the star's role on the show had been edited down after the opening of the episode say Monica and Marcus both giving their assessments on the finalists whilst he was missing. 'It would have been possible to edit out most of Gregg Wallace’s input in final episode of #mastercheftheprofessionals, so, why not?' asked one fan.The BBC decided to go ahead and broadcast the rest of Masterchef: The Professionals while they await the conclusion of the investigation by production company Banijay after holding crisis talks last week.
A BBC spokesman told the Mail: 'MasterChef is life-changing for the chefs that take part and the show is about more than one individual.' Gregg may be completely erased from the new series so it can be aired, MailOnline revealed last week. The source said that Torode and Wallace’s critiques, where they give feedback on the contestants' food, were filmed separately.
