The future of the latest BBC MasterChef UK series is up in the air.  

John Torode is leaving after a report upheld allegations he used an "extremely offensive racist term". 

It comes after an independent report substantiated 45 of 83 allegations about the behaviour of former co-judge Gregg Wallace. 

UK correspondent, Gavin Grey told Andrew Dickens there are calls to scrap the already filmed series.   

But he says competitors and the winner have worked hard to get there, and ideas around replacing them with voice overs will be almost impossible.
