They alienated me because I switched off and not going to watch them again
If that was a bunch of men slaughtering a woman however bad she was there would have been an uproar, and much as I do not like Linda wouldn't want that to happen to her if it was in reverse - it was disgusting!
I don't usually vote but a few votes for Jim because they were a disgrace

I agree, they are contracted to do appearances after being evicted. I am a viewer and didn't want her there either.

I usually sky+ the show each night, but now I have read the comments on here I can delete without watching. I have seen enough of Jim bashing by BOTS and more than enough of the 'woe is me woman' I wouldn't be very proud to be a Nolan atm....

So, there you have it, not sexist just stating the truth

I quite like Iain Lee, admittedly he can get a tad over excited at times on BBBOTP, but he's generally fair. I'd imagine that he was dying to say something to Linda about her behaviour, but didn't want to be on the receiving end of a 25 year grudge from her

If those two psychologists actually charge real people real money to help with problems then their clients should be considerably worried! Neither of the two of them seemed to be able to read situations independently and/or correctly and it looked as if they were totally absolving Linda of any blame. Yes, Jim is a good communicator, their spin on this was manipulator, but as professional psychologists they need to be able to evaluate Linda and Jim independently, read situations and be able to expertly explain both sides motivations and actions. Imagine being locked up in a closed environment with a person whose aim is to create trouble for you, it's not gong to end good for either side, is it? There was blame but on both sides, and both Jim and Linda handled situations badly, but mostly Linda as she was main initiator. Terrible analysis and for me it now casts doubt on any future BB show where they give any housemate judgement.

Jim came from the generation of comedians who did all the mother in law and wife jokes, and people laughed, until the PC brigade told us it was wrong, when he was younger he had a drink problem and was not a nice drunk. But I don't see anything from the BB show to say that he is like that now.

It is the women who are coming across as sexist, and bitter and it is not attractive. We all know they like tabloid fodder and Jim isn't going to sell copies of the Star, I think Olly or Luisa are the chosen winners.

Just watched BBOTS (a bit late I know!).

IF Jim is as much of a gameplayer, manipulator, liar and general all-round actor as they are saying, then I say he deserves to win. Personally I think that he has showed great restraint walking away from all the arguments that both Linda and Luiza have brought to him.

IF Linda is telling the truth about how Jim said much more than is being shown, then maybe Big Brother is being biased TOWARDS Jim and, in the interests of fairness, should show us some of the unseen footage.

One final point, saying all the HMS are missing 'MummaLin' is a right load of codswallop!! I think most of them were scared of upsetting her and getting the same treatment that Jim has had. I think they can now all relax and be themselves a bit more.

Hey Iain big fan of your work and you are super sexy. Now having said that I have faith that your conscience means you told CH5 where to stick their fee and/or gave it to charity after that shameful display you grimaced through last night, right?

Whatever your answer or lack thereof is, I will assume the answer is 'yes I bloody did!' Cool ta x

Agree, if they were fair with their comments then ok but they all seemed to have the same opinion of him, probably talked to the vile Linda before going on air.

Bunch of bottlers last night. They had a great chance to grill a truly ridiculous women last night.

Iain Lee and Rylan were more interested in doing that stupid Mamma Lin crap. Sick if Iain Lee.

That word is used every series in one context or another. All the words are. There is no relationship whatsoever between words used and Jim Davidson.

Size of Wales ??? surely not ,...Have to disagree with everything you've said - he is very very good at what he does, and going along with your 'size' analogy...you're opinion's about as accurate as the size of one of my plant pots in my garden

AND by the way....a lot of us STILL find Iain amusing - and I've never seen any evidence of Iain being rude to the panel or audience. And do you not recall Emma was scathing about Luisa's behaviour, particularly towards Ollie, and at Lee's behaviour with the girls !!

I'm relieved there was some kind of balance about Jim on the show, with Iain saying he liked him and wouldn't mind him winning.... and even then, this was still only 1 positive opinion against 4 members of the panel scathing Jim !! So no idea what the fuss is about, Iain's opinion was only stating a view held by many on here about Jim and viewers too, because Jim IS STILL IN THE HOUSE isn't he ! If Iain had slated a HM like that panel you'd all be calling him bias and that he should go !

Carol bigging up Luisa, was not a surprise, seeing as she practically adopted Charlotte who went on to win in the house last year.

AND According to Linda, you can't be anything but 'yourself' in the house. WELL that's an interesting comment now isn't it - because according to the panel last night,, Jim's managing to put on an 'act' and is not being himself. Jim must be superhuman then !!!

You were much needed last night! Thanks for that bit of balance. Where in god's name do they get these so-called psychologists?? That glasses woman was clearly biased against Jim and very unprofessional I think. And the less I say about Linda the better! Horrible programme last night but you were the only light in a very dark place!

After thinking about the character assassination of Jim Davidson that took place on BBBOTP last night it seems to me as though the BB producers have put themselves between a rock and a hard place.
Linda Nolan was claiming that the highlights only showed her bitterness and antagonism toward Jim and the so called experts agreed and both stated that Jim's performance in the house is all some kind of 'nice guy' act for the cameras and that he doesn't deserve to win the show or even remain in the house.
If Linda was really the engaging friendly and cheerful 'Momma Lin' who didn't deserve to be evicted that she claimed to be why was this not shown at all?
If this is really the case the producers guaranteed a Jim Davidson win or at least top three finish and Linda was treated very badly indeed.
If the highlights are a genuine reflection of what actually took place (and I suspect that by and large they may be) then why were these 'expert panelists' allowed to state quite clearly that Jim is a good actor and is manipulating every situation to his advantage, when the footage that we have been shown shows that Linda instigated the problems between her, and Jim which has led to him receiving overwhelming public support.
It would appear that the BB producers are panicking because they may have handed this years BB crown to their least desirable option, someone who is older, coming to the end of their career and regarded by many as sexist, homophobic, racist, un-PC blah blah blah.
If Jim Davidson is all of these things that Linda and her admirers on the BBBOTP panel said he is why has this not been shown to viewers?
The BB producers seem to have wanted to have their cake and eat it, Linda is now allegedly claiming to have slashed her wrists in the BB house because of Jim Davidson's behaviour toward her even though there were no reports of her receiving medical treatment or being removed from the house and given counseling, and no mention of it by any other HM at the time.
Oh what a tangled web the BB producers have woven

Totally agree, seemed like a try to get jim out and insulting those who vote for him, bb are desperately trying to please lynda and I think she may have complained and no she wasnt a mum of the house, did she cook no she didnt.
