I've just noticed that the only Americans that have ever been put into BBUK are all black men. Darnell, Cairon, and now whatshisname from last night.

Coincidence? It seems like one of the "types" they look for on BBUK casting is American Black Male.

Was Cairon an ex-con? In that case they were all involved in crime in the States too.

Adam from last night and Isaac from 2009.

Note: Isaac was the only full fledged USA housemate in BBUK 2009.

It's just strange that out of all the Americans that have auditioned for the show they only cast black males.

Maybe they were just the most interesting, it's not like they've had enough of them to say that it's some sort of certain stereotype they're looking for.

Maybe the black ex cons are the only ones worth putting in out of all the Americans that apply. There might not be all that many Americans that apply anyway, certainly not enough to make this a big deal.

I think there's an agenda ie pushing the ex-gangster black guy from LA.

Let's be honest the Peckham Boys look like choir boys compared to the Crips, Bloods etc
