Kinickylover, just one gnawing concern at the back of my mind is, having left the media circus, whether John would ever collude in any further Josie PR.

This would really disappoint me if he did. What's your take on that?

It's been like that for ages, the admins don't seem to mind! They ought to rename the thread though, so at least its title isn't misleading.

I so agree can't believe some of the posts about John from the same few people as well.

Just been reading those. interesting that they are from those who always bang on about appreciating

Hi Alex, yes that is what I am saying. I can't believe all these sightings and yet not one photo anywhere? Your right Turtle doesn't seem too concerned does he?
I've watched the trailers, maybe it has occured to Josie and her f&f that she is not going to be portrayed in the best light so time to put a bit of mischief out there and now we have the John backlash. I note that NOW have not wasted any time in jumping on the bandwagon by rehashing a few tweets, as usual

No way! John's name stays on the thread! There might have to be a mass debunk to Josie's thread if the rumours prove to be true though.

Yes, one rule for some...

errrm yes, but that should have happened weeks ago, what makes you think this time will be different?

You've been doing a great job on the modelling topic

I would with all my heart hope that John would not directly partake in any such thing BUT the way I see it he is going to be *politely put cos we are on DS* slighty bugged by the goings on.

So yeah why not stir it up, we know he likes to do that, and get his mates to chop out a few tweets.

Having said that I used to chat with one particular mate of his regularly so whilst I think this is an option I also wonder if it has been a topic of conversation between him and his mates and they have taken it upon themsleves to chuck in their point of view just as a way of showing support. This would certainly fit with what I know of his mates.

It is a difficult one to call but ultimately I do believe John would not be directly involved.

I live in hope.


I don't think so, but thank you.

was once threatened with a ban when I made a mild anti J comment

But that's more about the argumentative John being himself on twitter. Tactically, I prefer he keeps quiet for the moment, but it wouldn't bother me massively if he decided to revert to type and retaliate (either himself or loys).
What would really bug me though would be if he was in cahoots with Josie PR crew in any way, shape or form for this TV series. I think you're telling me not to worry on that account, yes?

Hey guys just popping in quickly to leave this tweet i saw

Heard john James is in uk to film foster adverts and to discuss other work offers the girlfriend bit is rubbish


Would really love it if its true, that John is considering doing more work over here!!

BIB. I would be stunned if he was.

If by Josie PR you mean Sean O Brien et al then I would safely say John would have nothing to do with them. No way would he get involved with any of the promotion for the show. If he was willing to do that there would have been no need for him to leave the UK and disappear from twitter.

All he did he did for Josie, he put up with so much just to help kickstart her career and get her established yet all he got was abuse in return.

I think you are safe to not worry - John's a good lad, true to himself and would never lower himself to this sort of PR stunt.

One thing I did notice from next door is they really are running scared of John's continued silence. Posts about him being a coward, etc - panic starting to set in now, hehe! Team Josie really can't cope with the silence

Then it's all Sean's fault, why's he tweeting about Corrie when he needs to be rolling his sleeves up and sorting this mess out? Hahahaha. Do they still not get it? Er hello, this is zelebrity PR, all publicity is good publicity, the messier the better. Sean can just sit back and let the whole circus of sorry clowns deliver their lines in as jumbled a fashion as they want. Why does the orchestra need a conductor, if all the players are on the stage? This is zelebrity PR for goodness sake, what does Sean need to be doing??

Next bizarre line of thinking. Oh, JJ's tweets tonight were very unusual, something going on there. I read them back, they read just like typical JJ, a pretty bland guy who seemed as confused as he always does about the JJJ shenanigans. But oh no, they had a particular significance this evening. Erm, yes ok, if you say so!

So in conclusion we're left with in my left corner (Bristolden and Mr Marky) and in my right corner (JJ and Turtle). Now who should we believe, I'll let you decide!

Anyway, run out of time now, it's been a pleasure, night all! :yawn::sleep:

Night Alex

this will no doubt still be going on when you return, with no clear winner or any proof being shown to prove either side.

Have a good night Alex, it's been grand chatting with you.

Bedtime for me I am up at half 6.

Hey, guys, bit unfair. Yes, some awful things have been said by people but on the whole the mood on the JJJAT tonight has been hilarious. It has all been treated as one big joke by most of us - even if it's all true. Because at the end of it all, we know absolutely nothing about what is true in all this. Still say, the most important thing is that John has kept his Silence - the best and maybe the last lesson he should have taught Josie, or she and her friends should have learned. Because what they have done has not helped her in the slightest, as a person involved in a break-up, or from the PR media side, if you want to look at it that way.

Morning. I would love more than anything for this to be true!! Lets hope mellon99 is somebody in the know.

Morning Alex. I genuinely don't understand what JJ is supposed to have done wrong. I read somewhere that he was having a war of words with Josie's friend but he only sent a couple of very restrained tweets in reply to her accusations. JJ is John's friend and maybe John asked him to keep quiet about coming back to the UK (if he even is back and JJ even knew!!). He is just being a loyal friend.

Hi Acilleans not a bad morning here dull and dreary but dry.

I would love this to be true and for John if true that he is here to stay in the background in Peterborough or whereever he is - wasnt he seen in a black car in London yesterday LOL!! and sort out what he is going to do next. The UK is a big place and there is enough room for both of them. He doesnt need to live in London he could stay with JJ anywhere in the country and keep a low profile.

I agree with this. JJ has been a very loyal friend to John and IMO hasnt done anything wrong at all and I would also add ST to this as well. Why should Josie know whether he is here or not. They arent together anymore - her own words - and so why should he have to explain to her why he is here. IMO she is totally miffed because he hasnt come back to see her and try and win her back. Why would he and if and its a big if that was in his mind then I am sure after yesterdays tweets he has changed his mind and run in the other direction. She doesnt have an ounce of pride left and her friends havent done her any favours either.

Morning lovingjjj. He's best staying away if some of those friends are around - they sound awful. Why would he want people like that in his life?

Good luck with the op today.x
