Although none of us know the ins and outs.
I think Linda has acted horribly to Jim, before he came and said something low.
She's goaded him and then sometimes it looked like they could be friends.
My opinion is that she feels that if she is to forgive Jim or become friends with him, that she will feel she is betraying her husband?
Jim is my favourite housemate and I feel sorry for him with the way Linda has constantly acted, but I'm trying to think of a reason why she's like a dog with a bone and that's the only conclusion I can come to and in fact think it's pretty understandable.

Betraying her husband could be a reason but she is a Nolan. They are all bitter and twisted and Jim does not deserve to be treated so bad by her.

Her husband was the thief not Jim.

Personally, I just think she wants something to dine on for months when she gets out the house.
Let's face it, without Jim she really would have no story line at all, she is boring and totally miserable.

I think she picked on the one she thought everyone would hate, get more airtime and then tell the lot to media and loose women when she came out, much the same as Colleen did over Julie.

Let's face it, the Nolan's as sisters have no qualms not speaking to each other and airing their dirty linen in public, so what makes people surprised she is doing this to Jim.

I am not a fan of Jim and I want Ollie to win, but I have felt very sorry for Jim at Linda's treatment of him. The Nolan's really come across a quite nasty to everyone including their own.

I completely agree. Linda not wanting to betray her thieving husband is nonsense. She thought Jim was an easy target and had planned to pick at him so much until he exploded - this failed.

Linda knows no loyalty and would turn on her own family for a quick dollar. She really is desperate!

Hi Tweety lovely to see you, you are still as nice as you were on C4, I am still as call it as I see it I find Linda to be a very bitter twisted woman the kind of woman who gives the rest of us a bad name. I don't understand how she has the nerve to be so vindictive to Jim when it all stems from her and her husband.

Her paranoia about him has meant that she has jumped down his throat at even the slightest wrong remark. He must have really bothered her in the past. I felt for him until he mentioned the Frank Carson thing. Then you see how low he would go...

6 and 2 threes

From what I've seen of them all the Nolans seem to be bitter and twisted. Coleen is the perfect example. If I heard once on Loose Women about how Shane Ritchie did blah blah blah blah I must have heard it 100 times!

The woman is vile. She has harassed that poor man since day one.

It was pretty low but to be fair, she's been at him and at him for ages. I'm not proud of it but if that was me I think I would have wanted to drag up whatever would piss the other person off most too and if that was his plan he played a blinder

But again, we don't know what he meant by this at all. I think he has been very restrained by the way she has treated him. Personally, I would have thrown the lot at her, kitchen sink and all.

Couldn't have put it better if I tried. It could also be that the Nolans are basically all man-haters due to their father allegedly being abusive.

How can she talk about the father of her kids like that? Doesnt she see that it humilates them too. I cant watch Loose Women

I just think she is desperate for a story and can't move on. Jim has apologised twice now. Hopefully she drops it now.

Typical Coleen and Linda: Everything is always someone else's fault and they are never in the wrong.

There does appear to be a Nolan gene

She seems depressed to me. And I don't mean pissed off, I mean depressed.

This ^

Can you elaborate? Why would you think that? Does she come across like that?

Linda can't understand why Jim wasn't evicted tonight.

I still hope that Linda and Jim can get along with each other, the feud thing must be really causing an atmosphere for the other HM's.

It is not fun to watch either.

Linda seems to need affirmation for her remarks too.In other clips about Jim.

I agree with you, loose women is a bleeding awful show for all these dire women to complain on. I watched it twice when I was staying with my sister and I found it trite and boring a load of has beens complaining.

To be honest, she depresses the hell out of me.

Agree. Think she is not well. And I also think that she is helping him to stay in, as she has attacked him for seemingly nothing for such a long time. Thought his Carson thing was a low blow but he hit her where it hurt after a lot of provocation.
I think the historical aspect of it means that it won't end soon - unfortunately.

And me she brings that house down with her mouth turned downwards constantly she is such a bloody misery.

Let's not try and excuse her appalling behaviour now!

These people are 'vetted' before they go in. They all speak to doctors and psychologists before they go in to make sure they are fit and proper.

There's no excuse for the way she's conducted herself.

Sorry poster...I can't get past the word Linda with out going numb..................
