The italicised Jim Davidson suggests that's exactly what he's referring to, Jim's past. People's pasts shouldn't define the rest of their lives, and especially not when the person we're discussing (Jim) hasn't beaten anyone up or lost his temper with anyone in the house, despite all the wife beater comments and people overanalysing who he has nominated.

I think you're overanalysing...
He has been a sexist, moody, sniping, bitchy drunken mess whilst being in the house, reece might be referring to that?

Of course I'm overanalysing, I'm on a Big Brother forum at 1.30am on a Wednesday!

Reece will correct me if I'm wrong but I believe he dislikes Jim because of his history and that was why he italicised Jim's name in his comment. As I said, Jim having a horrible past doesn't justify other people being horrible to him. It just means they're horrible too. I don't get why so many people who hate Jim are trying to make Linda out to be all sweetness and light versus Jim's dark and stormy when the reality is that if Jim's still the horrible person he's always been then Linda's been dragged right down to his level trying to expose it; and if he's not the horrible person he was in the past then Linda's made herself look like a bitter, horrible person by forcing her agenda onto the other housemates and isolating him from the group.

agreed!

I haven't suggested linda is blameless, just trying to be objective.
He's doing a grand enough job of isolating himself!
When they got the party the other day for example; he slunk in, everyone said 'yey! come on jim...' engaging him and whatnot like children desperately trying to prevent their parents divorcing, and he says ' I'm going to bed'.... why?
Later he was seen drinking with liz, so that dramatic exit was totally unnecessary!
For a supposed comedian he's done NOTHING but walk about with a face like a smacked arse the whole time, now seriously you can't tell me linda is 100% responsible for that?

Him being grumpy by nature has nothing to do with Linda, that's just who he is. Him spending lots of time by himself and keeping out of the way of Linda's group, however, that I believe Linda is responsible for. Linda's bitter, sour and never happy. Jim is bitter, sour and never happy. Two wrongs don't make a right and all that!
