Theres 7 people over 30 in there from 30 to 82. It is diverse this year which is good but I don't agree that the younger housemates are less interesting.

I hate all the age/gender generalisations tbh I don't understand why people can't just be judged as individuals

Niamh I usually love your posts and we have been on the same page regarding housemates in the past but my point about Lionel being a bit old for the show if he is offended by stuff that happens on it doesn't mean that another person of a similar age couldn't be on the show. There are plenty of our elderly friends who are young at heart and clued in with todays society. Lionel just looks like a cantankerous old man. I found it hard to like him even before the Jasmine episode. Just my humble opinion. I am in no way saying that the house should be full of youngsters. Balance is a good thing

That was what I was thinking.
