You can't have your cake and it it too


Jack seriously has to be one of the most annoying characters on Neighbours. He has chosen the church, but still he has the cheek to interfer in Paige's life.

I'm not saying that I think it is fair on him that she doesn't tell him the truth, but his reactions to her moving on are just so annoying. To be honest I do find his character a bit redundant.

I completely agree I hate his character how many times do we have to hear him complain how he doesn't know if he's made the right decision he doesn't want Paige but doesn't want her to be happy.

I do think it's wrong she isn't telling him though and don't like the storyline at all surely she knows how important it'll be for her child to know the truth about his parents after going through it herself same as David with his dad storyline. I really hope it's not dragged out for the full pregnancy.

I don't think it's even all that bad that he still has feelings for her and doubts his choice - that makes sense, he was torn all along. And he has a right to his opinion, as well. But the way he wants her to not move on? That is annoying.

I like Jack, but he's got to make up his mind what he wants.

I completely agree! I can't stand him!

I especially hate the way he acts all holier than thou but as Paige and the rest of us know he's just like every other guy!

When offered to him on a plate - he couldn't say no!

Why does everyone still go to him for counsel and confess their deepest secrets?

Plus he was downing alot of beers at that BBQ!

Some Holy man.

I thought the same, are priests allowed to drink?

Quietly in the confessional box! 

I don't see any wrong in drinking alcohol, Jesus drank wine. But it's just his condescending and holier than thou attitute that really bug me.

Yes that's my main issue with him too! 
