Exclusive INTERVIEW - BY SAMI MOKBEL: Ben Odeje's story is one of nationality, admiration, and, eventually, recognition. The 67-year-old (pictured) tells a harrowing tale of a man who asked people if people still lived in trees in Africa as he returned home after a humiliating loss in the 1970s.

'Even the people supposed to be looking after you, the coaches, and your coworkers referred to you as chalky or sambo.' 'The people who are supposed to be on your side were often the biggest perpetrators.' You're trying to fight it, but there is nowhere for you to go.' The issue of bigotry is as relevant as ever, though parents are much more open to their children's participation in football than ever before.

CHRISTOPHER STEVENS: Unlike the amateur contestants on the main series, the majority of the Celebrity MasterChef (BBC1) line-up doesn't know one end of a blender from the other. We're supposed to believe that the celebs who make aprons spend all their free time in the kitchen. The truth is that some of them will not know how to open a Pret pre-packaged sandwich. They'd have to hire their personal assistants to do it.
