Martin is comedy gold. He is like one big baby but I did laugh when he ran to the phone box and said 'wrong number'.
Loved the drinking trial when they all tried to dodge him when he was retching.

I'd love him to leave, not because he isn't entertaining or anything just because he gets too much screen time.

Wasn't so sure about the phone box bit, one hang up was funny but I think he went a bit overboard after a couple of times.

The water on Adam, and the retaliation was a laugh though, and he soldiered through the trial considering eating horrible stuff has already been established as a weakness.

EDIT: Lol at above comment. Not falling for that bait.

No. I want him to stay to suffer.

Depends how people vote.

If this was 1st series, people just vote out people who they hate (or not entertaining) - or both. I think it was like this for Im A Celebrity. Think it was like this back in the day when I watched Big Brother - a long time ago.

If its not Martin, I think Jordan is gone. Not featured in show really - maybe because hes done nothing, maybe just not what producers want? All depends on the editing. Its like with Danny. First episode everyone hated him. Has he just calmed down now? Good editing? Producers "hate" Martin more? I think Ant and Dec don't like him!

l'd like him to stay on just to annoy the others. I wonder if Adam is cottoning on that hes not as popular as he likes to think. His face was a picture when it was announced that he has to do the trial again.

As someone else said, if Martin goes, the camp will go back to being all lovey dovey and the quieter ones will be picked off one by one leaving Adam and Scarlett coasting to the end.
Danny Miller (Emmerdale) has a big Twitter following, and has been urging people to vote for Adam to do the trials, so it may not be down to whether or not he is popular with the public.

I really want Martin to stay. He seems to have settled in now, and was hilarious last night. Yes, he's a bit of a grump and can be petulant, but there isn't any nastiness to him, unlike that which he has been on the receiving end of from some of his fellow campmates.

Martin is an agent provocateur (not the fragrance). He's deliberately stirring things up to provoke a reaction imo.

On the other hand, I could be wrong

Ive thought this all along. The show has been on long enough now for people to know how it works. I think he has played it well although I do find it uncomfortable to watch at times.

We need an irritant in a camp. It was ok at first to have it nicey nicey but now people are being voted off we need something to spice it up.

He made the point that Carol was desperate to cook the meal, and said that in the camp people are shall we say "overly keen" to do it because they can then sit back and get the praise and screen time, rather than just for purely altruistically helping out their campmates.
He was right, thats how it was, No he cant leave, he was funny.

As always with the 'vote your favourite' as opposed to 'vote someone out', he's unlikely to be first out, but no way he will come close to winning.

Once he's out, other personalities will/may come to the fore.

I'm sure any one of us could have made, and probably have made, that same observation.

Another cheapest and easiest shot and so typical of Martin's childish spite.
Last night was his ultimate petulant baby performance, bless
Will it be downhill from now on?
Hopefully straight down hill and back to his long suffering Mummy wife

It is a bit puzzling how Martin's poor attitude is loved, and Scarlett's niceness is hated.

It's a funny old world.

This year has been by far the worst for shutting out half of the contestants and when it's in favour of people this total berk and his narcissistic antics, it's pathetic.

Seriously, can you believe that Carol is being criticised for being a good sport and enjoying herself?! The nerve of the woman!!

I think he should do a task to stay, if he eats up his rice and beans like a good little boy he should be allowed, if not he should go home and not be allowed to use his playstation for a week

ok, Martin has irritating personality and behaviours but he is comedy and entertainment gold. But i do believe he is also being treated unfairly and victimised, potentially bullied by some camp mates at times!. Others have double standards, exclude and reprimand him far to quickly. This was evident from the onset and it has remained the case.
Do i want him to win - no. but i do believe he should make final 5.
