john torode what did he say

John Torode recently said he has "no recollection" of an alleged incident in which he was accused of using an "extremely offensive racist term" on the set of MasterChef, an allegation which was upheld by an independent investigation. He denied believing the incident happened and expressed that racial language is wholly unacceptable in any context. Torode stated that he loved working on MasterChef but acknowledged that his contract with the show will not be renewed following the investigation's findings. He also mentioned that he will focus on other projects moving forward and hoped to have some say in his exit, which the recent events prevented. The BBC confirmed the upheld allegation and emphasized that such language will not be tolerated.
