You sound like you know either Linda Nolan or Jim Davidson well & its clear you're very Angry..Its only a game show & I doubt anyone will even care this time next week!

Its all she will be remembered for and she knows it and the small band of her supporters know it. She went in trying to get Jim out. Her number 1 priority and you are right, it did consume her.

I actually don't believe her when she says she enjoyed her time. She never looked like she did to me.

I feel sorry for her.
Being so eaten up with venom must be horrible.

It's eating her away. She should give it up.

Wonder if she was open enough to learn anything from the experience.

I feel sorry for her too. Leaving aside the awful past few years she has had, she is a desperately unhappy person and I hope that somehow she can get help and find some happiness.

To quote Lionel Blair - Is Jim the boss of Linda Nolan then? Is he so clever that she is being led around by the nose by him? I don't think so. She enjoys a row as much as anyone I've ever seen in the house.

Only time will tell. I feel at the moment she will be trying to defend her case, so she will still be blaming Jim.

Once everyone starts to get fed up of that, hopefully she'll take a good look in the mirror and acknowledge the woman looking back at her isn't exactly the nicest person in the world.

I'm just happy I can forgive others for their mistakes as I hope they can forgive me for mine and bear no grudges.

Shame to go through life being so hateful imo.

Aren't people always moaning that Colleen Nolan is never off the tv? So she did well?


Don't be so ridiculous. As if anyone has said anything remotely like this. Ollie said she was a bit protective over Sam. The only person who has said they did not enjoy the house was Liz, who singled out Linda as having been very kind to people. But go on, suprise me. Find me a housemate, now or in the future, who says there was a dreadful atmosphere in the house for most of the time, because of Linda. Or admit that you are fantasising. If you like, I'll save your post until a week after the end, to give you plenty of time to back your words up.

Oh dear. But I think it is more likely that he just wants to have a pleasant time and emerge as a good guy in the public eye, than that he actively wants to be malicious to people.

I am not a fan of people saying they were 'always myself'. I think the 'self' that appears on BB will almost invariably be quite different from the 'self' at home. Specifically, I always think that almost every housemate would do a LOT more 'bitching' behind peoples' backs than they do in the house. It is just human nature to get together with your family and friends and vent about the peculiar people you work with.

Yet again, you are confusing the Jim-centric edit with what she actually did in the house. We must have seen her for 5 minutes a day. There really is no reason to suppose she is lying about having had a brilliant time, other than the knee jerk reflex to wish to say that everything Linda says is a lie.

She made it uncomfortable and Jim tried to remain civil. She was having none of it. Like I say, out of the hours we seen of her, she didn't look like she did enjoy it.

Keeping face as I call it.

That's exactly how I saw it. The people who's judgements I trust the most in Big Brother are those who are spending 24 hours a day with each other.

You can suck my thumb if you like.

Ok so when a child gets bullied by a gang in the playground, the gang are in the right

Nail on the head there BS.

There aren't any children in this series of BB, nor is there a playground.

I didn't know that.
Thanx for telling me.

Who is the child in this metaphor?

Most welcome.

Really, most of them behave like children.

On that I am in agreement.

Well, she can - whether or not people are going to accept that the version of events they were fed by BB is representative or not is up to them.

it seems that a lot of viewers (even long-timers who should know better) are really struggling to grasp the implications of going from having 42 hours a days access to the house to 46 minutes. Even with live feed we could never be sure we were seeing everything, but now there's no chance of that. That much is obvious to everyone. So, given that, why do people still equate what they see on a HLs package with what actually happened in there? Why would someone be so foolish as to try to convince intelligent posters that someone who was actually in the house questioning the narrative we were fed is wrong, and can't rewrite history, as if 'history' in this instance is anything more substantial than a mere, highly selective smidgeon of what went on?

Can't people understand the concept of a narrative? Can't they bring themselves to accept that, even more than before, we are being fed one, and not just in relation to Linda and Jim, but pretty much everything we're talking about, this series and past?

Linda was absolutely justified in not accepting Emma's/Endemol's narrative, re that her stay was solely about Jim. She clearly saw it as more than that, and who are we to argue?

IMO Linda tried to play wittingly or unwittingley a game of divide and conquer, she has never liked Jim for whatever reason and he was her target. It worked as he was up for eviction every time.
I admire Dappy in a way at least he was his own man I couldn't stand him before he went in the house but have to say I have slightly warmed to him.
Whether Linda has had a bad edit I don't know perhaps jim was saying stuff to her to make her act the way she did.
But one thing I don't like is a person telling me what to think about another individual so well done Dapps!

But Linda was right. All Emma asked abut was Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, Jim, bloody Jim. I felt sorry for Linda, she wanted to talk about the other things from the BB house.

She is just as unnecessarily vicious on tonight's highlights. No redeeming features whatsoever, just filled with complete hate.
