James DEFINITELY sets out to hurt people undermine people (calling Gary an 'idiot' who needs 'babysitting' and 'educating'. Plus all his constant efforts to put down Audley about his boxing career etc).
Unlike Helen - James doesn't do this when drunk - he does it sober - all day long! Unlike Helen - James has no self reflection and no regrets about the upset he causes. In fact - he quite enjoys the thrill of putting people down, hence he is quite smug about it.
Helen is a nightmare in short drunk bursts but means no harm.
James does mean harm and is a nightmare all day long, no need for alcohol.
James is a far nastier person because he intends to hurt people and enjoys it.
