It’s clear who should leave Celebrity Big Brother tonight

In all honesty, I’m neither for or against Jack and that’s the problem – he’s dead space.

Jack P. Shepherd, Patsy Palmer and Trisha Goddard face eviction in tonight’s Celebrity Big Brother and clearly one of them should get the boot over the other two.

Celebrity Big Brother has already lost two of its biggest characters, albeit with good reason, but it cannot afford to lose another personality. One who actually brings drama.

Sadly, for Coronation Street star Jack, audience members of Late and Live have had more airtime than he has.  

Jack somehow received the most nominations for the first vote last week – eight in total, one more than Sir Michael Fabricant, a Tory MP who was in power when the UK fell apart at the seams beyond repair.

That’s quite some feat given the range of giant personalities he’s in there with, surely more annoying than the guy who just sits in the corner and sulks.

The house was a little kinder in week two, with just four nominations from Angellica Bell, Danny Beard, Donna Preston and Trisha.

The same reason keeps cropping up though – his wind-up sense of humour.

Where is this sense of humour that keeps getting him in trouble? We’ve seen absolutely none of it.

Without any loyalty to Coronation Street stars, I have no reason to vote for him, or to feel particularly aggrieved that he’s in there.

Will the house miss him if he goes? Will we even notice?

In all honesty, I’m neither for or against Jack and that’s the problem – he’s dead space.

Trisha and Patsy, on the other hand, have just given us the beginnings of a reason to tune into what has otherwise been a series plagued by the troubled behaviour of its biggest star, otherwise lacking in any real drama or humour.
