How come the campmates expressed their disgust that Martin chose to sit in the chair (that was sainted to Sir Larry) yet on tonigh'ts show, all of them have sat in it. Yet another chance to have a go at Martin?

This year was terrible with bullying and all bullies got away with that. Martin is a nice person and he didnt complain but he shoud
On last nights show they were all sitting on it again at some point
Be careful..there are some on here who are very precious about what Wayne is called whilst being hypocrites about us supporting Martin ;-)
Isn't that called pack mentality? Or, to fit in one must conform to what a certain group considers the norm - the way they act or say things?
I wouldn't go down that route to suit a bunch of folk hanging off
the arse of their exalted leader.
I hope somebody reminds Martin to thank them for tolerating him; patronising at its best
Clueless.
Like suggesting they draw straws for the trial? Or telling the camp what happened when he and Larry were on the dingo dollar challenge? Those unacceptable words? Sitting in a chair everyone is allowed to sit in except him? That unacceptable action? Or maybe the fact he didn't display the right amount of sorrow over Larry's departure that the group expected? Even though Larry made no secret he despised Martin. It was classic groupthink scapegoating. One of my favourites was the stawgate incident where we cut to the other campmates in the hut one by one saying that Martin "doesn't know he's doing it". Doing what exactly?? Making a suggestion? Who the hell does he think he is? Making a suggestion. They were basically following Larrys lead when he nearly bit Martins head off for suggesting the drawing of straws. It was absurd.
I don't feel strongly about Martin one way or the other, but it's clear as day there was one rule for him and one rule for everybody else in there (perfect example being when he got a public dressing down by Danny for not collecting water, whilst not a word was said to Adam who was also responsible for collecting water). Poor guy must have been walking on eggshells 24/7 for fear of doing or saying something Larry would deem unacceptable, and then have the whole camp on his back again.
Well said. The article today said that in the DCC, Larry pushed Martin out the way and said " get out the way you effing t**t. Martin also states that off camera, again, Larry called Martin a porker and said he could do without a few meals. Larry of course denies this. Had we not witnessed what we did, who knows who we would have believed. Carol talking about a lot that went on we didn't see....yep
