Can't help wondering who will be GIVEN the airtime now Jimmy has gone.
While certain celebs perform for the cameras in the hope of being shown on the highlights (Kendra, Jimmy) we shouldn't forget that we usually see (at most) half an hour of highlights on the evening show - and considering they are all being filmed 24/7, the producers decide what we see.
We have been shown Jimmy "entertaining", Kendra "struggling", Mel "snapping" etc which is designed to make us think that the rest of them must be doing nothing. However, it's clear from some situations that there have been lovely relationships developing between the others - foggy/ Jimmy/ Jake isn't the only bromance going on there - Michael and Tinchy are spending a lot of time talking, and Edwina is clearly participating a lot more than we are being shown.
We've hardly seen any of the Dingo Dollar challenges (don't they do one every day?) with other people doing them, yet they are a great opportunity to see the less shown camp mates in the limelight for once - Michael and Vicki were awesome yesterday.
I wish they'd give us a fairer edit - it's not fair on those who aren't being shown much, and equally, it's not fair on those who are being perceived as airtime hogs - who may not actually be doing much more than any of the others, but the producers want us to see them!
It's interesting to see the public kick Jimmy - clearly a producers favourite - out first despite being so popular in the first couple of weeks..... A few minutes careless "ban-er" shown on a weekend show cost him dearly, yet the ITV2 crowd - and Ant and Dec- seem genuinely surprised that he had been voted out, despite the highly favourable edit he had mostly had.
