James isn't in there to be Gary's carer. He doesn't even have to go near him, like most of the others. He may be helping him in his own incompetent way, but at least he spends time with him and says Gary fascinates him. Give the man a break. Even twats have hearts.

Mr Jordan was in danger of embarrassing himself on National TV and probably not for the first time. The Head Banging and total disrespect from James Jordan towards Gary Busey was careering down hill so fast he got an unofficial warning. To have to be advised { and this is what we saw- God only knows how many times off camera he's been told) in front of the Nation that his behavior was not acceptable and to have to spell it out to him that potentially there is a man in there that doesn't need confrontation but a little bit of understanding and help. Just shows to me the depth of lack of caring and self centredness that is abundant in the house.

For anyone to cite the above as Mr Jordan being the only one that has any time for Gary is just so way off the mark. He's doing it begrudgingly and then trying to gain kudos from it.
