I think he picked the ones that said *I like JJ*

Well, he doesn't fancy Josie.

It looked like he was going by the show of hands to me, 
They only has a minute to decide.

agree with RZB. he also looked for approval from the Barron.

JJ  has continually intimated that Josie is his closest (read 'only') friend in the house. I think he'll relate better to the new HMs (read 'hopefully kill off the nomance crap). Looks like Josie will have to change her game plan.

I see tears before bedtime

Will Jo be the new top dog?

Will Josie take it lying down?

Don't answer that.

I think if he was guilty of anything it was choosing 5 over 4. More people wanted 4 but he wasn't female, or blonde.

She's been upright for more than an hour now!   She'll be getting vertigo soon!

I think he was doing it the fairest way TBH ....a show of hands all round. It was a bit mad and confusing but I think he followed the general consensus of opinion in there.

Obviously those who dislike JJ will see it any which way they choose.

I can't stand him but I don't think he did a lot wrong except saying '5' every time he listed the votes.

We're going to have to stop calling him JJ now.

More people voted for four than five.........I'm mad number 4 didn't  get in......he looked to be good 

Yes but they shouted it instead of putting their hands up. Technically, JJ did the right thing even though it was obvious more people wanted 4.

I wanted No4 ..,..

Rachel harped on #1,#1 

Basicly JJ chose his fan club to go in and join him...forget about Ben winning, the newbies wil hate him and vote him out...put your house on JJ winning now.

Could anybody hear anything above Rachel's screeching?   

Laura said she's not interested in John James at all.  She also said her favourite housemates is Corin, who was one of John James' targets of bitching and verbal aggression.  Probably why she doesn't fancy him tbh.

Glad Corin got a buddy  

And why would that be? Because they've seen footage of what a spoilt, petulant , two faced HM he is? .........hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmI wonder why.

Just because he pre fixes every bitching session with 'you know that I adore him/her but..........'  or 'I absoloutely love them to pieces but ..........'. doesn't make him a bloody Saint.

Ben is incredibly underhand and ........unlikeable too IMO.

Erm sorry but are there different shows on?..they all had 60 seconds to agree and he went with the show of hands, yes we all can think that fast....

I actually shouted "shurrup!" at the telly

I think he did incredibly well under pressure. A show of hands was the only way to go ..........it certainly looked to me as if he went with that .............must have been difficult with all the shouting and screeching.

Me too and got told to calm down....

Yes especially Foghorn Rachel..she needs to go....

It was chaos. He took liberties choosing 5 over 4 but let's face it if you were a HM and somehow found yourself in control in that situation you'd do the same thing.

Errrrrrrm....i believe we were watching the same show and,
IMO he partly went with the show of hands/the shouts of the HM's respective preferences.
But partly discarded the said preferences.
Oh, and sarcasm being the lowest form of wit - doesn't equate to "lol" moment dear.

 

From watching it again, I think this is broadly correct.

After the initial voting, the general consensus was for 2, 4 and 5. However Rachel lobbied heavily for a re-count on number 1, which they did. John James was one of those who voted for Jo in the re-count, and he then started to lean heavily towards 1, 2 and 5. The others suggested various combinations of 1, 2, 4 & 5, but John James got his way.

Just out of interest ....how did John James get to be spokesperson ...... bit of a poisoned chalice IMO.

No idea soozy, he just stepped up to the plate.

Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrm grow up its only a show..and sarcasm is the highest form of wit to some of us dear..did you lose your £100,000 oh no wait your a forumer not a HM dear....

Thanks Eugene 

^^^ this - heed. 

But, he self appointed himself rather than 'somehow found himself in control'

Sits in front row. Popcorn anyone? (sorry stonks) 

Nobody else took control, so he did. Can you imagine if it was Rachel? Forget show of hands it would have been who could scream the loudest. I hate JJ but I don't see how he did much wrong here.
