Earlier in the series I must admit I was taking Jim's side. However after 'Carsongate' the scales fell from eyes and I could see Jim was playing the passive aggressive role for all he was worth, playing it very well too (IMO obviously).
He's stalking around the house like a wounded bear seemingly too afraid to do or say anything in case the other HMs attack him. You'd think he was some shy, retiring librarian rather than a stand up comic with over 40 years experience of appearing in working men's clubs, etc. He could rip that lot to shreds if he chose too.
Interesting too that BB seem to be jumping on the bandwagon with the addition of the melancholy backing track on that clip, viewer manipulation at it's finest.
