Father of the Powell family, Jacksons not just the mild-mannered trainee teacher he appears to be... there might be something of the fraudster about him.
Jackson is a qualified teacher and can often be heard preaching about private education as 'money buying privilege'. Little does he know, his daughter is secretly attending a private school, funded by her mum's scamming.
Initially snooty about socialising with the riff-raff of the estate, Jackson left a big impression on his new neighbours with a boozy striptease at Libby's hen party.
There's another layer, just beneath the buttoned-up exterior, to Jackson Powell and all it takes is a few home brews and an audience of randy Chatsworth ladies to reveal it. She may have been around the block a few times, but even Mimi was gobsmacked by what she saw.
This comes as no surprise to neighbour Patty, who's had to learn the noisy way that Jackson and his wife Avril have a 'healthy' private life. The amorous pair have a rock solid relationship and Avril, with daughter Letitia, are at the centre of Jackson's world.
