I think "villain" is the wrong word.

But he is probably the best gameplayer there has been in years. His decision was so ruthlessly entertaining. I'd place him with Nick and Victor in the gameplay group.

No, I think he's the hero. He's turned that house upside down and reminded everyone that it's a game show, not Big Brother's Best Sob Story Race.

Jason in evicting Latesha has gone up in my book, he was the only one in the house with the balls to do it, some may say Andy nominated her, but I don't think he would have done what Jason did.

She was a shoe-in for the final and maybe the winner, so in taking out the bookies favourite Jason has made a good move, as it is a game show and they are all trying to knock each-other out and win the money.
I agree. He is no worse than any of the others. They all have to evict someone, and he was honest about it. The HMs who had a go at him and other people who thik he is dishonest are deluded. Leyticia was in it to win it just the same as every other person, and anyway,she is stupid and talentless and should get a job if she wants money. Why should a being loud- mouthed, crude, vulgar and thick person win? She was trying to be Jade Goody mark 2.

He was sublime.

His actions are the only thing (so far) worth remembering from this risable series.

I don't see him as a BB villain, I see him as a BB realist.

Perhaps if you agree he IS a villain but I think he is a hero for evicting Lateysha!
I totally agree with you. Many forget that this is a game and Jason is playing it perfectly.

What bugs me about Jason is how desperate he is to appear as the nice guy when really it's all just an artificial front to avoid nomination. I love game playing, but I don't like people who try to play the public. I'm happy Lateysha went, but it doesn't mean I need to like Jason because of it.

If Jason is a villain, you'd need to consider people like Deana Uppal and Rachel Rice villains as well. Just as Jason, they did things a certain way in the House, and some people complained about them being game-players or not being themselves, dishonest etc. But when confronted, they were always honest and realistic in their answers, and I don't think any of them did anything wrong.

I would have evicted Lateysha if I had been Jason. She spread the lies that Charlie started, she also hated Chelsea and Andy. Her comments about the money and car that Jason has is irrelevant. He has as much right to that money as anyone on the show, She was jealous of Chelsea's money and Andy's intelligence, She was so thick she misunderstood what more intelligent people said.

Dont know why Jason is being compared to Nick? What Nick did was against the rules and he was removed because of it? Neither of which apply to Jason ?

The only people not applauding Jason are Lateysha fans, which is understandable, but it would be hypocrital of them to have a go because you know if it had been the other way round Lats fans would be the ones cheering !

No wonder Survivor never caught on in this country if the idea of a contestant getting rid of another contestant in a competition for money makes people so sick.

Games are made to be played and he did it well

Deana and Rachel were nothing like Jason. Jason is just desperate to be liked and win, whereas those 2 women were simply being themselves, and were a lot more interesting HMs for it.

How do you explain Nikki Grahame's reaction to this, I think it's immature.

Well said.

I'm having trouble understanding all the backlash!

He evicted Lateysha and gave his reason why. What on earth is wrong with that?!

Hughie, Laura and Jackson all pushed the button too, so they too were obviously going to evict someone.

Had it been Jason, would that have been ok?
Me too - well said.

Everyone would have been on here moaning if NO ONE had pressed the button, saying they missed the chance to give us great TV - and that WAS great TV, even if it wasn't what everyone wanted.

I really don't see how Jason can even be compared to Nasty Nick???? Two entirely different situations---Nick CHEATED. How did Jason cheat????

Preposterous thread title ...nothing remotely villainous about Jason's actions....actually has more in common with the heroic behavior of Craig Phillips..

Nowhere near a villain, some forumers will treat him like a hero because he got rid of the "hate figure" on here

Exactly. Makes me wonder if someone questioning the difference between Nick and Jason even watch the series that year---or maybe just forgot how it went down.

Don't like him anyway. Always knew he was not to be trusted.
Hes playing the game. Like him or not he has played a blinder getting her out of the house, he knew she was the leader and the others followed like sheep, good game i say.

Jason didn't cheat , he played the game to save himself ...and he did. Since when did a Hms financial situation become the criteria for staying/leaving the BB the house ? When did single mothers become untouchable and why?

Charlie was right to caution everybody that he was a snake, and not to be trusted .


What he did was selfish, and will be a life changing event for him personally as no one will ever trust him again.

A bit like a certain businessman here in Belfast whom I used to like and was warned to "count my fingers after having shaking hands with him". This will be as with this snake he needs a big stamped message across his forehead stating "Not To Be Trusted".

If he was wanting to enhance himself , he has done the opposite , he is now a Toxic Brand and will no be trusted.

Toxic Jason Burrell , BTW wasnt Diana's butler also a Burrell and he was also Toxic.


So Lateysha is sort of like Diana then? And Jason her butler?

I don't think that quite works.

She didn't like him, and he didn't like her - he pressed the button to save himself and nominated Lateysha who was NOT his friend, perfectly reasonably.

I thought it was chuffin' BRILLIANT - he knew the flak would fly, and did it anyway.

I don't understand why Lateysha is 'so' special - well, she isn't.
