Surprising that. I guess then they can see and take a joke and that is really great to see from 'all' of them and not just as to Jim.

Casey jokingly said she would have an affair with Jim, he is married man with a family, over twice her age, again that was a joke, is that okay for her to say.
It is for me for her to say that as a joke just as I find most of what Jim says to Casey the same, banter and jokes,pure and simple.

I warmed to him when he was coming across as the father figure, even Casey's mother commented on it. You can't do that and be making sexual comments the next. You just don't.

Nice generalisation there, i'm not suggesting she is disturbed by them. I'm saying that I am as i'm sure many others are.

Great points, I agree with the last part a lot - it's coming across really creepy to me. He plays the farther figure one minute and then the sexual stuff comes out and it doesn't sit well with me.

I guess Jim cannot now still be termed the grumpy old one, not joining in with everything,despite knowing what life in the BB house would be like as was the case before.
So now he is cracking jokes and far more relaxed,(and his jokes are and have always been in his career rather close to the edge),he shouldn't be saying and doing some things to those younger housemates, yet all there is are in fact these much younger people left with him.

Odd how Lionel can say to a young woman, ''suck .. ....'' and that was fine,(by the way I found that funny too,again taking it as a joke).
However Jim has to watch everything he says.
Talk about double standards.

That was apart of a task though Joey, and Lionel wasn't bringing his Daughter into it and didn't act all jealous when Jasmine was hooking up with Lee.

Jim needs to be careful as tomorrow is the most important day for voting and if he makes anymore dodgy comments he will leave it open for the dreadful Ollie to snatch the crown.

It's amazing that those who dislike Jim dislike him because they think he's all the "ist's, ism's and phobic's" in the world, but they are ageist towards him.

So true.

Oh ok thanks for clearing that up.

I said father figure, which as a man that is more in her actual fathers age bracket than hers is exactly what he is, and he should not be making these types of comments.

It wasn't in any way a scripted part of the task Mock, it came straight from Lionel himself. Lionel didn't have to say it.
Task or not, what is the difference?
Lionel is even 2 decades older than Jim.

Both I found funny as I said,however if I was finding one funny and the other not then I would be saying I was guilty of double standards myself.

Let's all get a life, shall we?

Jim wanted to make Casey laugh to cheer her up. She did laugh.

End of story.

TBH, i think this CBB will get a totally new generation of fans to this type of humour that will will say FU to all these PC types. And rightly so. A joke is a joke.

Agreed!

People are getting sick of being told what they can and cannot laugh at - especially by people with no sense of humour.

He's just looking out for her,nothing in my view is meant badly from what he says to her and I am certain and would dare bet on it that Casey doesn't see it as anything other than joking either.

I was just thinking that when Jim comes out every parent would have to lock up their Daughters.

Its the way they say it! Some men can get away with saying sexual, cheeky things to women and its funny and light hearted. My perception of Jim's comments were that they were creepy and sordid. Again, i'm sure that was not his intention, but the way I know him through years of seeing him do stand up and various shows, being cheeky and light hearted about sexual issues is not his forte.

But Lionel didn't treat Jasmine like his Daughter, and he never exactly perved over Jasmine like Jim does with Casey, also what's disturbing with Jim is that he did put himself in the incest scenario which imo is quite disturbing if I'm being honest.

And I feel if anybody else had have said and done the exact same things that Jim has been doing lately nobody would be defending them, especially Lionel who had people giving him stick at the best of times.

[Verbal]

Its all perception

If this man said to you oh nice tits and winked at you, you would just laugh

If this man said to you oh nice tits, you would probably punch him and call the police



Jim can't get away with it without it seeming sordid.

Well I could've said that when Jim fans couldn't handle Luisa arguing on Saint Jim (as yes his being treated like a Saint again when his not) but nobody told Jim fans to get a life, and which one sounds worse to you out of the "get a life" moments? Obviously Jim if you're being fair.

Maybe it's a generational thing. If any man (whatever age) said to me "Nice tits" I'd think he was a pillock and walk away. If I was holding a drink, I'd probably pour it on his head. I don't see anything funny about it. I enjoy a proper witty joke, but saying "nice tits" isn't funny. It's just pathetic.

[MTVN]

He is like the old fella down the pub who sits at the bar admiring the young barmaid's assets, nothing wrong with that
