Martin’s behaviour divides viewers
The actor’s sad news comes not long after he was slammed by viewers of Gogglebox for his behaviour while watching tv.

The worst thing, however, was the fact that he wasn’t wearing any socks – something viewers described as “disgusting”.
“Someone needs to tell Martin Kemp to keep that foot of his out of sight #CelebrityGogglebox [vomit emoji],” one viewer tweeted.
“Can’t bear the feet on the table next to the Doritos… even Martin Kemp’s feet! another said.
“@realmartinkemp can you please wear socks next week on @C4Gogglebox because your creepy toes are really not helping my pregnancy nausea,” a third wrote.
