I've never liked him & as far as I'm concerned this nice guy we're seeing is all an act.
Maybe if he was younger I'd say he could've changed but imo he's far too long in the tooth to have had any massive change of personality.
Advanced age is a very poor excuse for being unwilling to better oneself. You can't teach an old dog new tricks, but humans ought to be better than that.

I liked him when he was young (to my shame) but it was a different world then and the whole Chalky White thing didn't seem racist at the time (I know, I know )

I didn't really have an opinion on him until Hell's Kitchen and he came across completely obnoxious. I still find him annoying. Too domineering and sure of his opinions. He doesn't allow a possibility that people with different views than him may have a point. He's a dinosaur basically, stuck in a time warp.

So far he hasn't upset anyone massively, but it's only a matter of time IMO.

Of course they should, however they have to be aware there is something to improved on & in JD's case, I don't think he sees that.

Completely agree especially bits in bold.

We haven't seen much of him & Evander together but I have heard him call him The Champ then I heard Linda say he was up his backside & that didn't surprise me in the slightest.
Obviously without live feed there are a lot of things going on that we're unaware of but yes, I'd put money on him upsetting someone, except Evander.
