He only wants to know what her problem is with him.An argument from the past.

Now using her dead husband to pull yet another fast one.

He quite clearly said "Go and ask her about Frank Carson's dressing room" not "is it about Frank Carson's dressing room?" He was shit stirring.

Either he has a terrible memory or he's trying to make Luisa look bad to attempt to make himself not seem bad

Whatever it was to get to the bottom of her problem with him. If it was an argument between Jim and her husband from the past would help others understand her bitterness towards Jim. That dosnt give her the right to blame him and bring up her husband's death.

Yes, and he also lied about what he said to Luisa to start Linder off earlier.
The guy is a knob. If your going to say something at least have the balls to stand by it.

Complete passive aggressive, manipulative and controlling jerk from the start... no surprise what occurred here, what i would expect from the likes of him.

I can't believe anyone would be fooled by his entire "what? who me? i'm just a clueless goober and don't know what's going on" act.

Completely distasteful from Jim all around tonight. Poor form, old chap. Poor form indeed.

after 2 weeks of Linda's snipping he has biten back, not the best way but it certainly hit a nerve...total s**t stirring but she has been pushing him and got what she wanted and will be looking for that sympathy wave to ride to the final...
I like Jim's s**t stirring but might be a wee too much there as it's giving her what she needs bah he was doing so well...

Well said. He clearly knew what the problem was, otherwise he wouldn't have sent Luisa in as his unexploded bomb. Very manipulative. But the sanctification of him continues on here like a tide of slurry.

Tbh I think Jim is a lot more popular than Linda, She has come across as a bitter snapping dog with a bone irritating woman.

She can dish it out but can't take it.

It says lot about the people who want to defend Jim, as if he's innocent in all this.

Yeah and she only had the nerve to push it last night because she got the free pass till next week. She is totally pissed off about his popularity in the public vote.

She got what she had been trying for since she entered the house. She deserves to have her dirty laundry aired.

Astounding it is,
Why he's supported, at the very center of it... it's like one of those mysteries where you want to solve the mystery but at the same time you know in the back of your mind you won't like what you find.

One of the best things about BB is the way it exposes the highly flexible 'morals' of the viewership.

They obviously have history, but who's to say who is in the right.
Can only go by their behaviour on camera. Linda is the one who seems paranoid.

How much sniping can Jim take before he snipes back?

She certainly does.
One day she may regret not actually enjoying the CBB experience instead of focussing all her energy into digging digging at Jim.

I'm surprised he has kept his cool for so long. Perhaps Linda Nolan was trying to make him lose it.

Yes, Jim would never want to hurt Linda's feelings...

I'm assuming you're young and don't realise what his comment meant to Linda. It was the worst thing you can say to someone. Drag up the past on someone who is dead. He knew people would remember the incident and his racism, sexism, homophobia and nastiness would be forgotten. Sorry Jim, not by me. You've just bought your ticket out of there. Cheerio and good riddance

Just watching on +1 and Linda butted in when Jim was asking Lu a question and started an argument.

Then she said Jim called her an arsehole as he walked away ... HE DIDN'T say that. She mis-heard him

God Linda is vile!

I don't know anything about his life and this is just pure speculation on my part, however... he comes across as someone who's been in years of therapy, if it be recovering from an addiction or whatever.

I've known a few of these types, the passive aggression and need for control is a raging inferno underneath a calm exterior. They know how to light a fire and remain calm during it while others ignite.

Then they will remain calm while the others are fiery and emotional in an attempt to make the other look bad, fueling their need for control. It's like getting your kicks off power through control or with control.

Some of the most passive aggressive people on the sporking planet.

I can't say if that's the case here for sure, and it's complete speculation but it sure seems like it to me. I know someone in particular who i feel like is so similar to Jim it's uncanny.


Jim started it with his need for controlling the moment and his ridiculous passive aggressive comment.

Luisa is having a very nice and positive moment about her magical daughter time, and Jim invades that moment with that hideous comment? Good for Linda for calling him out, too bad she couldn't remain calm though as he knows how to exploit that.

I'm assuming your young when you cannot see a goading bully who picks picks picks and then is surprised when they retaliate and did Jim mention Linda's husband...No but she did a few times.

delete - wrong person

I completely agree with you. I'm not a Linda fan. In fact, I'm hugely disappointed with her for being played like that. Jim knows exactly what he's doing and he played her like a fiddle. I would respect that if he were in the diary room later saying "I knew that would piss her off! Ha! That's what you get when you're such a nasty bitch to me!" But instead he's pretending to be naive and acting as though his actions were totally innocent and they really weren't. I just wish Linda would have some self control! He's using her to play his victim role (how can he be a victim without a villain??) and he's definitely not attempting to resolve anything. He "innocently" baits her and then sits back in front of his audience awaiting the expected manic attack. She's so disappointingly dumb and he's so annoyingly clever.

He knew exactly what he was doing. He's a clever guy, trust me. He's got history. I know.
