He allegedly boasted about his sex life and was accused of taking off his top in front of the woman who felt it was inappropriate. Wallace exited the BBC series Inside The Factory amid claims that he had behaved offensively towards workers and persisted in using disrespectful language, particularly towards female colleagues. The incident reportedly unfolded during an episode shot at the Nestle factory in York.
"I don't want anybody to misunderstand this and make it look like I was flirting with somebody. Nobody accused me of that and I never have." A BBC spokesperson said at the time: “Whilst we do not comment on individuals, if issues are raised they are dealt with swiftly and appropriately at the time. We do not tolerate any form of inappropriate behaviour and have robust processes in place.
