FALLEN MasterChef host Gregg Wallace has launched a new career as a tour guide – but his viewing figures are not so hot.
He’s set up a YouTube channel where he tours London uncovering interesting sights missed by visitors, provides snippets of history and noses out cheap food and drink deals.

In one video, he found a pub in Leicester Square serving as substantial lunch and a pint for £20.
Another – which has attracted just 8,000 views – concentrated on the best and worst lunches in the capital.

His £20 challenge was posted two weeks ago, and is his most-watched footage at 22,000 plays.

But viewer Wendy said: “I had forgotten just what a good presenter Gregg is. Love his commentary style.
“Not sure about him on MasterChef but this is really good. Let’s hope views go from strength to strength.”
Another person wrote on his YouTube channel: “It was great listening to the history of London. Very well done Gregg.”
Earlier this year, he spoke of his money worries after being axed from the BBC cookery show after an investigation into alleged inappropriate behaviour.
Gregg, 61, told his followers on Instagram: “I’ve worried about it all of my life, even when I was earning a load of money, I still had a major worry over it.
“It’s more than worry, it’s an anxiety. It’s always been with me and I don’t really know where it comes from.”
He added: “It bothered me a lot at school that everybody seemed to have more than me, and as a teenager and as a young man.
“Everybody around me seemed to have more than I did. So I worked really, really hard and always put my money away.
“And I have always been safe for a number of years but it doesn’t stop the anxiety.”
He then touched on his exit from the BBC and how he was also selling shout-out videos on the Cameo platform.
“So when I lost my job and all of my earnings,” he said:
“That anxiety just spiralled completely out of control. And, although people knock it, Cameo was the best thing that happened.”
Gregg added: “This money worry has been the one constant nagging fear for all of my life, and I’m sure I’m not alone.”

Failed actor is just another title to add toLee’s questionable CV, after he claimed to have once worked as the Director of Philanthropy at The Prince’s Trust (now The King’s Trust)
Lee also shared images – since proven to be AI – of him working with Elon Musk and Kim Kardashian
It’s been revealed shameless Lee told former girlfriends that he had studied at Cambridge University, and has a PhD in biotechnology science
But The Sun has seen a response from the university explaining it could not find a record of Lee being registered as a student with a date of birth they had provided
His LinkedIn profile says Lee has been a Member of the Board of Advisors to the Labour Party since 2015
Lee was also mocked for repeating theexact same wedding proposalon Katie – that he did for another woman just four months ago.
After she was found to be misusing social media, a TV source said at the time: “Nadia has been suspended from the show until further notice and won’t be appearing on the rest of the series.
“Bosses have made the decision following an investigation into Nadia’s use of social media.
“She was found to be setting up fake accounts to troll certain users – which is something that won’t be tolerated.”
Meanwhile, Lee’s former relationship with Alana has been under the radar of late.
Lee connected with Alana on Facebook in March last year and she explained how he “love bombed” her with cash transfers, Louis Vuitton bags and Cartier jewellery.
Speaking about Katie to The Sun earlier this year, Alana expressed: “I just worry for her welfare.
“I worry he’ll maybe end up getting her arrested or a flight ban. He obviously has no remorse toward anyone.”
In her exclusive interview, Alana added: “Katie should run for the hills. Lee is a liar, a narcissist and I think he’s a manipulator.
“Once I tried to leave him, he told me had a heart condition and was living on borrowed time.
“Lee doesn’t know what’s fact and what’s fiction.
“It’s worrying because I think he believes his own lies.”
Also in the exclusive chat, Alana said Lee showered her with gifts, and she recognises the significance of Katie and Andrews’ matching 11:11 handtattoos.
