He may as well not be there . I mean a fine big guy like him should be putting himself forward for the trials, instead of wee Scarlett and Danny who is 59 .
Jordan doesn't want to do anything
Oh for heaven's sake - nobody WANTS to do the tasks. For someone who has admitted he doesn't know much and is scared of everything I think he has done amazingly well on the trials and has enjoyed learning to cook, clean, etc. What else do you want?

Team work?
This was a difficult trial to put yourself up for, because it screams "I want immunity because I want to win". I think he didn't put himself forward for the same reason he didn't want them to buy his luxury - either because he genuinely didn't want to take something for himself, or because he wanted to look like the "nice guy". You choose which - I don't know him well enough to know.

^ It screams nothing of the sort. All it indicates is enthusiasm for being in there, wanting to stay for more fun and games, and not wanting to be first out. All perfectly reasonable reasons for putting yourself forward.
Jordan either didn't like the sound of the trail, isn't bothered about staying or is confident that he'll be saved on the strength of his winning personality. You decide.
Yes, OK "I want to win" or "I want to stay" - either way could be seen by some as being too "forward" or selfish for either genuine or game playing reasons, that's all I meant. 
I don't think he's bothered about the whole thing.
Who knows, when he leaves we might get a load of antics from him in his highlight reel that show him actually doing stuff, but I doubt it. I think he's just been sitting on his arse on his bunk waiting for his money.

The edits always seem to cut to him resting on his bed, maybe he's missing his food.
He should have been the one putting together a dance routine with Ola, not Scarlett. Wonder if any of the camp mates suggested it, but Scarlett out-enthused him to volunteer over the others - again.

It says more about the others who keep hogging the camera time than it does about him
Instead of Danny immediately 'choosing' Scarlett, who's already done plenty of trials ( along with being voted president and vice president ) He could have said "How about the people who havn't had much opportunity yet being given first option ? "

That was so odd! If they're 'short-sticking' for anything, it should be a chance at immunity. That's the second day in a row that Danny/Scarlett have tried to push one or both of themselves forward for the immunity challenge.

This was what I was disappointed in (apart from the stuff about Scarlett, I don't mind her) ... that he didn't even seem to want to get involved in 'entertaining the royals' bit. He's a dancer, it's not like he's a pianist and had no access to a piano. He and Ola could've cobbled together something impressive I reckon.
Of course, he may well have volunteered and was knocked back, but it was a missed opportunity if he just couldn't be arsed.
Didnt know his father was a boxer and his mum was a ballet dancer...

I agree with this Karly. Putting yourself forward for this particular challenge kind of looks like someone is desperate to stay. Sam admitted thats why she wanted to do it, as she doesn't think she has a big enough fan base to save her if she wasn't immune. Jordan seems pretty chilled to me, I don't think he was ever gonna push for it too much.
What will they show as his highlights when he leaves?
I can't remember him doing anything since arriving in camp.

all he does is sit there holding his silly letter in that stupid box going on that he is Jordan Ramsey because he chopped a bit of veg, he needs to up his game

My thoughts exactly. I've just watched last night's episode and couldn't understand why Danny immediately chose Scarlett to do the trial. When it's a trial for winning immunity, everyone should be given the chance and if they all wanted to do it, then they could have drawn the shortest stick or something along those lines. Why should Danny choose anyway? Totally wrong that, and I don't think anyone would have dared object.
