Paddy McGuinness Faces Backlash on Inside the Factory

Paddy McGuinness has faced significant backlash from viewers after taking over as the host of BBC's 'Inside the Factory' from Gregg Wallace, who left the show amid allegations of inappropriate behavior towards female staff. During his debut episode, which revisited his roots at the Warburtons bread factory, viewers took to social media to express their discontent, labeling him as 'irritating' and calling for Wallace's return. Many fans criticized McGuinness, claiming he has previously 'killed' other shows, while a few voiced support for his new role, describing him as a 'breath of fresh air.' Wallace had stepped down in March 2023, denying allegations of derogatory comments but citing a desire to spend more time with his family as his main reason for leaving. Despite mixed reactions, it seems a portion of the audience believes 'Inside the Factory' may have run its course regardless of the host. The controversy surrounding both hosts continues to fuel discussions about the show's future direction.
