That there is favouritism towards jimmy from itv? They didn't really discuss the Jake thing in depth and just joked about it. They basically dismissed the situation because they all really like him.

Probably have plans for him. Some ropey show on ITV2 or whatever it is called now

I think being out first was enough of a message to Jimmy.

Clearly not as he said on itv2 hes a bit surprised to be voted out first. They just skimmed over the "banter" thing, just to get across how much they liked him.

Maybe because it WAS banter ?

Just a thought.

If there was any significant favouritism for Jimmy they wouldn't have shown the 'banter', or not anywhere near as much of it anyway, or the other team's discussion of it. It would have been easy as anything to have a much more pro-Jimmy edit. Ant and Dec just didn't kick him when he was down, that's all - they know the papers will do that. They didn't ignore it and they only have a tiny amount of time.

It's all biased. Micheal and tinchy have been sidelined for the Jimmy show - now they are back in the editing. Edwina is suddenly edited to show her self as well how to describe 'into sex' which will split the kids from the older people.

Ooh the old days of BB live streams - has Im a celeb ever done live streams?

Perhaps they know Jimmy well and how he works and that its just banter we as the viewing public don't know what he's really like to us it looked like bullying I didn't feel comfortable with it but if I knew him would probably feel different

Jake didn't have a problem with Jimmy, so everyone has moved on.

Why be angry on behalf of Jake?

That's never stopped them bringing up things like this in the past.. It would usually be the focus. I didn't see any part of it that wasn't pro-jimmy?

I don't think anyone is angry.. Just think he's an arse. But as a viewer, would have liked to see them explore it a bit more rather than joke about it and dismiss it. It was a massive part of why he is first out.

I read that Jake had called Jimmy names but I guess its ok because he is fit, also they choose to show someone in a bad light.
Now the Jake to win will start..........................................

Who's angry? Just folk expressing how they saw what happened is all. Jake clearly DID have a problem with Jimmy's rant, he's simply savvy enough not to make a big deal out of it.

Think ant or dec should just say straight away who is going rather than leaving till the last two.

I've no doubt it'll be covered a little bit more in tomorrow nights IACGMOH NOW - there really isn't much time for a post mortem directly after the eviction.

Yes we used to get it. They used to cut away when they came back from the BTTs to save the footage for highlight shows, but we usually got to find out how many stars they got.

Yes, it used to, there would be a couple of hours about 5pm, where the repeat is now on on another ITV channel. There were some great chats the year they had Janet SP and Paul Burrell.

The live stream used to be interesting; you'd see incidents in a completely different light.
I do think there's a side to Jimmy, though - it even showed through a little in his interview last night, imo.
But I also agree that these shows are always tipped slightly in favour of people like Jake; he gets so much airtime, and i knew he'd end up on the team that were immune from the first eviction.

That's a shame, agreed if we had a live feed we would be able to see more of the real characters!

If that was the case they would never have shown the baanta innit.

Producers knew full well that could be seen negatively (personally I found it infantile and boorish)...and remember they already knew he'd then done himself no favours by wimping out of the tombs trial.

If anything he was stitched like a kipper by the edit.

And yet most of us viewers continue to make a big deal of if.

In many ways Jake has proven a lot more prepared and media savvy than Jimmy has. He knew keeping schtum was the wise thing to do. Unfortunately Jimmy was just too stupid. I think out of all of them in there - Jake (along with possibly at most two others in there) is more likely to have been a regular viewer of this kind of thing (Big Brother, IAC, etc) and knows what is acceptable and what is unacceptable to the viewer.

I believe It WAS banter but Jake was and is too clever to have known not to join in with it on the same level (which given some of his comments early on to some of the female contestants) I'm sure he was capable of.

Maybe they thought that there was nowt really to discuss ?

It was a mini spat between 2 hungry tired emotional men.

end of story.

He was all gob and no substance. Never mind the banter, when it came to the trials he was rubbish from the outset when he and Mel had to do a trial before they were even in the camp and Mel did it single handed as Jimmy was such a wimp. And then he's the only one to wimp out of the 'terror tombs', beaten by everyone, he must have felt really stupid.

good point, can we do a graph on Jimmy's fighting talk versus his actual bravery in battle?

we shall fight on the beaches, in the hills, on the landing fields, we shall never surrender, oh is that a spider, get me out ranger I'm pissing my pants?
