Australian-born chef John Torode has been at the helm of MasterChef alongside Gregg Wallace for 20 years.
The programme, which tests amateur chefs on their culinary skills, was originally called MasterChef Goes Large when the duo began presenting it in 2005, after they met in the 1990s when Wallace, greengrocer to London’s top restaurants for more than 20 years, began supplying Torode’s businesses.
