Gino D’ACAMPO

Miriam Margolyes has done two great short series round Australia... without bothering about the food specifically, bathsalts - obviously she loves food so it IS in there - but not the focus.
She is definitely older and in a "niche" campervan.
She does drive it herself.

Apparently he was 21 at the time, a young waiter (not always tv chef), served a 2 year sentence and Paul Young was interviewed on TV some years ago saying he has forgiven him.

If he served his time fair play, he was young and stupid, but what he is being accused of now is deplorable and he can’t blame it on anything other than his own bloated sense of entitlement and a misogynistic attitude towards women.
If is true his career has to be forfeited.

I haven't read that he urinated but that he dropped cigarette buts which led to him being caught. The worst part for Paul Young was that he took recordings of his now deceased wife's voice which have never been recovered.

As long as there are arrogant men who think they're God's gift to the world - no.

Another one!
Will it ever end?

Well what’s he done isn’t there a link ?
Never liked him anyway too cocky and always sounds a put on accent, but I haven’t seen any articles about him
I don’t watch cookery shows or the ‘celebrity’ travel shows either

BBC and ITV News.

Apparently he was 21 at the time, a young waiter (not always tv chef), served a 2 year sentence and Paul Young was interviewed on TV some years ago saying he has forgiven him.

I can't see any reports on the incident that say he urinated. Has anyone found one?

Yes I knew about the Paul Young burglary thing. I didnt know about the urine, and if that's true I dont want to know.

I find the whole Italian Stallion thing beyond the pale in any TV programme. I’m now starting to wonder about the stuff that is edited out before we see the finished article.

I knew about the Paul Young thing (lovely man) so never quite understood Gino D’A’s popularity.

petra "What he did at Paul Youngs house was unforgivable.
Not only did he break in and piss on the carpet he stole recordings of Paul Youngs wife’s voice recordings.
His wife is now dead and he will never get them back."

Whaaat? Why did he do that? For goodness sake, what's the matter with him????

So all those people who were sucking up to him, laughing at his shenanigans, bragging about him being their friend, posing with him for the press will now drop him/'cancel' him to save their own skins. What a world.

Fred Sireieix Maitre d’ First dates … hope he’s not involved…

If they knew why didn't they tell him to pull his head in?.

Gordon may be a potty-mouth but I doubt that he's sleazy. My DD came across him through work and said he was a perfectly decent, kind man, no bad language, it's just for show.
Or was he dropped from that show because he objected to D'Acampo's behaviour?

My only surprise is that it’s taken so long to come out.
2 women on GN have accused him of putting his hand up their skirts while working with him.
What he did at Paul Youngs house was unforgivable.
Not only did he break in and piss on the carpet he stole recordings of Paul Youngs wife’s voice recordings.
His wife is now dead and he will never get them back.

Irs a bandwagon now.

He made very sleazy comments when he was on This Morning. Cringeworthy.

They make me laugh these types. I'd love to see a couple of older women being given the chance to travel around in a niche vehicle and look at food.

I know the fabulous 2 fat ladies did it, but they were a one off.

Nice work if you can get it!

He's not funny, though, nor is Wallace.

I don't like cookery programmes or game shows, I have seen Gino D'Acampo on TV and I really could not take to him.
I am afraid the allegations do not suprise me. I just find it annoying men think they csn behave like this.

I’m sure this came out at the same time as Greg Wallace didn’t it, and his contract was withdrawn, I don’t think it’s new news?

I have always found him full of himself.

In the 90s he was convicted of burgling singer Paul Young's London home, and served two years in prison.

Nothing would surprise me.

Another trial by media.

Whether it's true or not seems beside the point. His career will suffer as a consequence, either way. What a sad way for our society to end up, either way.
