..I think that the thing with Jim and Linda is that they both do probably hate each other and what Linda 'displays' is probably not that much different to what Jim feels...I personally don't think either of them are very nice people as such and the 'rights and wrongs' in most of this series are all very debateable, which is what we've been doing lol...but just taking their behaviour and character in the house and nothing more, for me it's been how each of them have coped and responded to the dislike of the other one...

..I have no doubts in my mind that Jim's remarks which are very passive aggressive have provoked reactions in Linda and those reactions have been extreme and quite hateful...whereas, there is nothing passive about Linda at all, she has been openly hostile with her feelings and although the Frank Carson thing was wrong and extremely wrong, other than that and on the whole, Jim has responded and reacted very well to Linda's hostility...so when it comes to those two and who is right and who is wrong in all of these arguments, all I can say is that they have both 'fought their personal battle' in their own ways, but for me, Jim's way has been much less spiteful and bitter....and more admirable tbh...with Linda, there is virtually nothing that I can admire at all, other than she's probably not had an easy life, but the same can be said of many people but she's coped with it all really badly in the person it has made her....
