TIM Lovejoy took a shot at MasterChef judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace, claiming his cooking show rivals “don’t know what they’re talking about.”
The popular host swiped at the MasterChef hosts while discussing his time on Celebrity MasterChef from 2011.
Tim Lovejoy blasts Master Chef judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace saying the cooking show rivals “don’t know what they’re talking about.”
EastEnder’s actor Richard Blackwood will appear in the upcoming Celebrity Casterchef series
Tim claimed John and Gregg made a big mistake when they gave him the boot and hinted that his elimination from the show was part of a “conspiracy theory”.
This comes as former EastEnders star Richard Blackwood appeared as a guest on Channel 4’s Sunday Brunch to talk about appearing on the upcoming series of Celebrity MasterChef.
While Richard recalled being on the show, Simon Rimmer asked: “But did you listen to people?”
Richard recounted that he was given a valuable piece of advice over a particular dish, which helped him.

Sunday Brunch in chaos as Tim Lovejoy struggles to read quiz questions
He continued: “They [the person who helped] know who they are.”
Richard went on to add: “Tim did it and they sort of listened until he got to the point where, Tim being Tim, he felt he knew everything and was told the dish he was going to cook was maybe not quite complicated enough for when you get to the quarter-finals, whatever it was…
“But Tim said, ‘Oh, it will be fine,’ even though John and Gregg said, ‘It needs to be a little bit more complex’.”
Tim bantered: “You go online there’s a lot of conspiracy theories. John and Gregg do not know what they’re talking about.”
The former EastEnders star, and the rest of the guests on the show, chuckled when Tim made the joke.
Celebrity Masterchef will be airing on the BBC soon, featuring a star-studded line-up of guests.
From pop artists to comedy icons this year’s line-up is not to be missed.
The line-up includes McFly’s Danny Jones, Paul Chuckle, and actress Lesley Joseph.
It isn’t the first time Tim has taken a bit of a cheeky swipe at the MasterChef hosts.
In one Sunday Brunch episode, he called the judges “useless”, adding: “It’s not my fault, it’s not Simon’s fault, it’s the judge’s fault… John and Gregg, they’re useless.”
Sunday Brunch airs weekly from 9:30am on Channel 4, while Celebrity MasterChef returns to BBC One soon.
