And so it continues. The douchebag is still whinging about them on Twitter, actively encouraging his and Ola's fans to troll them. James continues to show the ugly side of his personality, anyone who saw him on Celebrity Big Brother will know he's an arse and you can bet your life he was dropped from Strictly because of this kind of behaviour behind the scenes.

Him and Ola are such a tacky, desperate couple. I despise them both with a passion. Easily my most disliked pros ever to have appeared on this show.

What the hell did Kevin ever do to him to make him so nasty to him?

Karen made a catty remark to Ola, apparently.

This initiated a huge feud between James/Ola and Karen/Kevin.

The Cliftons (as much as I'm not a fan) have not maturely made no attempt at retaliating to James/Ola.

Oh yes, Karen's 'bullying' of Ola. Methinks Ola is actually a big headed diva who thought her longevity on the show meant she was entitled to special treatment.

It don't usually chalk it up to jealousy, but with James, he's clearly jealous. It's sad and pathetic that he had to start during the launch show already, even without seeing one dance. Funny how he doesn't comment on any other pro who gets possibly decent dancers.

I'm not a fan of the Cliftons by any stretch - but think they seem nice enough, Kevin especially, but my god, I'd have them over James bloody Jordan and his painted on abs any day. He's a **** of the highest order.

EDIT - ooh, I got bleeped out! How exciting. Starts and ends with "t" but it could be any number of 4 letter words come to think of it!

James is pathetic full stop, not just in his twitter comments. Time to go away gracefully James. Your strictly story ended 3 years ago. Accept it

It probably started with the 'bullying' incident between Karen and Ola, which Ola then went on to publicly state she'd accepted an apology from Karen for.

I suspect the real reason may be that Kevin came in as a British pro who was very popular in his first series, which proved to be James' last, and Karen and Kevin became *the* couple while James was axed. Jealousy, put simply.

Did Mr Jordan give any indication as to who he thought Kevin should have been paired with? Lesley being the only one on the female rosta who seems guaranteed not to have potential.

James Jordan is an embarrassment. The man has never grown up and still carries on like he's at school. I'm surprised his wife hasn't left him by now.

As I said on another thread, I don't like the way he is doing it. He posts something about the Clifton's being favoured, and then when his supporters get nasty (and I do mean, very very nasty) stays quiet. Kevin and Joanne in particular behave absolutely perfectly in the face of provocation. Karen's slightly more feisty but still polite.

Whatever anyone thinks about the pairings or favouritism, it really is not very pleasant. One past reported comment by Karen to Ola (and we don't know the context) does not justify an ongoing feud.

I always thought James was a good teacher, and didn't mind him talking back to Craig. However, I don't like his recent behaviour. To be fair, Ola hasn't taken part in any of this.

The behaviour I've seen from Cliftons and Jordans over the years, makes me think that there's more to the story. Perhaps a few words exchanged, and Ola went to the producers about it.

But that was 4-5 years ago, any sane adult wouldn't hold a grudge for this long.

Well, according to the paper today - and it could be paper talk - Ola fell out with Kristina too. Both of them wanted to be top dancer on the show which caused friction.

I have to agree with these remarks about the Jordans and I think Ola was a diva. It cannot win James any friends in the dance world and that means losing all sorts of opportunities in that direction.

He is jealous of their popularity. Nasty little man and she is as bad.

They are now the face of Ann Summers, says it all. How the mighty are fallen.

No he didn't. (He very pointedly said that Anton and Lesley's pairing was unimaginative though.) Otherwise he seemed to be saying it should be someone who did not have dance training. But you're right. Most of the female celebs have potential and so I'm sure he would have complained whoever Kevin's partner was.

hey, I thought that was cool
There's nothing about shaking your booty that makes you into a nice person

I'm no fan of the Cliftons but they are a hundred times more palatable than the toxic, and frankly desperate, Jordans.

Yes, definitely a jealousy thing. Kevin got a hell of a lot of attention in his first series, with the whole 'Kevin from Grimsby' thing.

Raises eyebrow


Raises eyebrow slightly higher

Didn't James make some bitchy remarks on Twitter during last year's launch show about Kristina being paired with Daniel? So I can sort of believe they weren't the best of friends by that point, for whatever reason.

From The Sun article I infer that Ola is what she does not want to seem ... b****y. Makes me reconsider her relationship with Steve Backshall.

I don't bother with twitter but why is he targeting the Cliftons if it all started when Karen Hauer reportedly had a go at Ola . Kevin had nothing to do with it .

Raise your eyebrows any higher Aggs and you'll have to have your hairline raised a la Kevin Clifton.

I'm not a fan of the Clifton's being the new TPTB favourites but give me their smugness over the Jordan's smugness anyday. James is a prize see you next Tuesday.
