I'm sorry to all those who think she is "tv gold" and "hilarious" and making out because Tony was at a Fox Hunt he should have no right to object to Lady C and beetlegate - but her vitriolic diatribe to Tony is inexcusable.
She thinks she can say anything to anyone and be as vindictive and nasty as she likes because of her rank! If you try to stand up for her she uses vocabulary that is simply unacceptable and disrespectful.
I think Tony showed remarkable restraint - and the others should have put her in her place.
Dreadful, dreadful behaviour.

Yet another thread about her. They are all playing a game and for the producers it is TV heaven, get over it, she won't win but is great entertainment for the oiks.

Yet another inexcusable one sided thread. Try educating yourself and maybe you can then decipher vocabulary that is beyond you.

I don't think the OP has failed to understand anyone's vocabulary.

I don't think anyone needs to be educated to know that comparing someone to diarrhea, criticising their singing voice and telling them they only associate with cheap tarts is unacceptable and rude.

The OP is free (like all of us) to start a thread about whatever he/she chooses - there's nothing inexcusable about it.

Charming! (is that enough vocabulary for you?)

Absolutely. As is describing someone as insane, mad, nuts etc. There's very much guilt on both sides on this one and, if pushed, I'd have to say it all started with Lady C being completely dismissed and ignored by Bryan, Suzanne, Tony, Yvette and Duncan from Day One.

I don't particularly warm to any of the main antagonists; though I have immense sympathy and admiration for Lady C because of the life's she's lived. To still be standing upright and able to smile, laugh and brave her way through trials, after what was done to her? Wow.

For me, Chris - especially Chris - Kieron, Fearne and George are the only truly likeable campmates this year. Lady C's the star of the show; and she has her likeable moments. She also has her 'oh ffs, shut up' moments. But in the context of who she is and where she came from, I wouldn't expect her to be 'likeable'. She's still fascinating, though.

I really don't see it like that at all. I think for the first couple of days they all went out of their way to be kind and helpful to her. She then started to take control (or tried to) even though her cooking was dire. It seemed to me that she wanted to rule the roost and have them all dancing to her tune - when they started to make a stand she took umbrage and got quite insulting.

That's how I remember it.

I think you remember completely correctly that she took umbrage and got quite insulting. But what I also remember is that she was pretty much universally right. She was right about the cooking of the meat, the boiling of the water etc; at that point her vehemence was relatively mild. They just didn't listen to her. They treated her like an old dear in the corner who should be humoured. Massive mistake on their part. On hers too, probably; but she did nothing wrong in the beginning IMO.

If anything, it demonstrates a worryingly limited social intelligence on the part of the other campmates. I've encountered Lady C's before; many of us have. Humour their eccentricities and you'd probably never acquire a more colourful companion and lion-hearted supporter in your life.

This a bit how I see it. I can't and won't defend the way she goes off on people, but I find her frustrating because in so many cases I think she is in the right (with exceptions, i.e the stupid t-shirt thing) and if she argued without the insults then I would be supporting her over so many incidents. Like you say the water boiling, being disrespected, the goat cooking, the hypocrisy of tony over the trial and the bug. As it stands I still like some aspects to her and find her interesting, but like Kieron I find her hard to defend with the way she goes on and on with the insults.

I'd bet Lady C doesn't know any Spandau music (she can't have - Tony has a fantastic voice) - she's just saying mean things to get airtime (and probably Katie Hopkins job!) - and oiks? Is it now ok to call people that? And she has no aristocratic standing! She was born to a wealthy family, worked as a model (?) then married a Lord for a short time in the 70's and continues to use his title, despite getting divorced in 1975 and says this about it..

'Now nothing will ever get me to give it up,' she says. 'If I marry 27,000 times, I will keep this crummy little name I loathe."

So you first say they were wrong for humouring her eccentricities, yet go on to say that is exactly what they should have done, so another words they are damned if they do and damned if they don't.

Also why is one persons rude and insulting behaviour dismissed as being eccentric, while the others are wrong for answering back in a similar way and not dismissed as eccentric.

Yup! Me too.
However, I do object to Lady C's long and distant past being used as an excuse for sympathy on this forum. She has lived a full, exciting AND wealthy life and she's not the only one to have had a rough childhood. I do take a lot of what she says about her past with a pinch of salt though because it comes from her and her alone. It doesn't seem to be corroborated by anyone else. Let's face it she has churned out a lot of fiction in her time.

Its nothing compared with Chris Eubanks - who was in and out of care homes all his childhood

She is pissed - and rightly so - at Tony's refusal to wait on her.

And absolutely rightly so. The whole thing is massive double standards.

Love Lady C and they've treated her shambolically.

Duncan didn't have the easiest of childhoods either..........that's probably true of several of the campmates, but much much more is made of lady C's, for whatever reason!

I reckon she just wants to be voted out.

I think you could be right, she has earned her fee, so long as she doesn't walk. I don't think winning is important to her.

Perhaps we should petition Priscilla Presley to give up her married name too? Not to mention countless others. Lady C's husband was a despicable excuse for a man and perhaps this is her way of taking revenge upon him.

I know we will never get the answer but I do wonder if Tony would have done the trail had someone else been in the luxury camp?

It was very telling when none of the 9 wished Lady C, Keiron & Chris good luck when they set off for said trail. Then, horror of horrors, Lady C etc won!!!!

Tony & Jorgi's reaction was pure, spiteful, sour grapes & started the divide.

It really is massive double standards. Lady C refused the washing up task because it was beneath her too. She is hardly one to criticise.

As it happens I think Tony should have done the task - he didn't - so what. She has also refused to do things.

Nothing warrants the foul mouthed, juvenile, abuse she throws at people when they 'displease' her.

Tony was looking for an opportunity to have a go at her trying to be the Big Man and Impress the rest of the camp and ended up looking like a desperate idiot. All IMO.

You thought he looked like an idiot?

I thought the only one looking like an idiot was Lady C. That juvenile, foul mouthed, ridiculous rant just made her look more stupid (and spiteful) than before. Nothing Tony said or did warranted that.

Never once did Lady C say she wouldn't wash the dishes because it was beneath her. She refused because Tony had labelled her 'lazy'. Now THERE'S hypocrisy at it's best!

He didn't' label' her lazy at all. He was asked to rank the group in the order of how hard they worked. Never once did he call her lazy. It was a trial and he did what he thought was the best. It was clear from his and Chris' deliberations he was mistakenly thinking this would 'protect' her. I don't know how anyone can be in any doubt that up until that point everyone was looking out for Lady C in a protective role.

It backfired quite spectacularly when Tony and Chris attempted to explain. It was a trial that Tony and Chris had to do - they didn't foresee the repercussions or have any idea how the lady (or worm) would turn

Absolutely correct.

She took it the wrong way silly woman.
