What kind of housemates are you hoping to see?

[Maxxie.]

I know there's gonna be a lot of recruits and I was okay with that at first but it's getting a bit far now. I'm dreading it if they're all models and/or reality stars. I wanna see normal jobs like sales assistants, a teacher, and maybe somebody on the dole along with some Katie Hopkins wannabe.

A mix of nationalities too, I think they have an american but the best BB housemates have historically been international (Nadia, Makosi, Kathreya, Richard, Adjoa, Ahmed etc.) I don't think they've ever had someone Polish in so perhaps from there?? At least 3 non-uk born housemates I'll be pleased. Actually, wait, put in someone from Israel and Palestine and see how that works. It might be boring but it's supposed to be a social experiment at the end of the day.

Also, I wanna see a right slut who's bisexual and wants to ride all the boys, a couple asians (in fact they should be represented more than black people as theirs more in the UK) and a lesbian or two as you don't see them anywhere near as much as gays in BB especially CBB so that applies for this summer as well!

[Pete.]

Gina. Rio.

[reece(:]

More freaks

[Jason.]

A black gal obviously

[Crimson Dynamo]

white blonde dark eyebrows, mid 30s well turned ankle


also the odd female too

[Tregard]

Anyone without media training will suit me down to the ground. I'd love to see a few alternatively styled people, give me people in the vein of Shabby & Marcus.

There will definitely be at least one posh HM too, which I always seem to endear myself towards, so I hope whoever this year's Freddie/Nick is is a good one!

Well I hope Rylan was telling the truth when he said it's the most diverse in terms of age and ethnicity.

BB10 cast?

[reece(:]

He said that last year and there was only two oldies and two black HMs from launch.

[Drew.]

More freaks

This, less apprentice type housemates and more strange characters

[*mazedsalv**]

But then we got Sam later on.

Isn't BB16 noted as being one of the oldest cast ever?. People like Chloe and Sarah who were quite "normal", Harriet was certainly "normal", Joel was a politician and Nick a posh boy. Last years was quite diverse

BB3 i think is still the youngest, along with BB12.

[crazycolaist]

Decent and usual humans but not boring

[Shaun]

Fewer ex on the beach fodder, more mentally unhinged weirdos / lovable eccentrics

[*mazedsalv**]

Thinking of anyway, which series was more diverse in terms of characters? BB6 or BB10? I think 10 for sure.

But I remember people moaning on launch "This is BBUK not international BB!", could that be the reason they stopped with the non-Brit HMs overload?

Beniezer (sp), Siavash, Cairon, Sree, Angel, Rodrigo, Kenneth, Hira, Sophia, Noirin, Isaac.

BB10 to me was by far the most exciting launch simply because of how diverse the cast was. Disregarding a few of the housemates being quite cliché, every other person entering was really exciting (Freddie, Angle, Sree, Rodrigo, Siavash, Marcus, Benazir, Ciaron, Sophie/Sophia, Noirin)

[Firewire]

Fewer ex on the beach fodder, more mentally unhinged weirdos / lovable eccentrics

Definitely this

But also a couple of down to earth, girl/boy next door types

[Black Dagger]

Less than 3 TOWIE/Ex on The Beach/Geordie types.
Eccentrics that aren't just wacky for the sake of being wacky.
A hoodlum granny.

NOT a Carole Vincent wish

[Headie]

Ethnic range and Age range

[reece(:]

Carole 2.0 :clap1:

[chuff me dizzy]

Normal,nice people ,not boring just nice

[Shaun]

Definitely this

But also a couple of down to earth, girl/boy next door types

Same. Adam Kelly/Lauren Carre kinda housemates :fc:

[Strictly Jake]

A diverse range like bb10 please

[Wojtek]

I don't think they've ever had someone Polish in so perhaps from there??

[Kazanne]

Me to ,not wannabees, everyday people without an agenda ,who are there for the experience

[VanessaFeltz.]

2 gay guys who are willing to be in a showmance, i just really want to see a gay showmance, we have 20 straight showmances every season i'd like to see something unique.

2 strict religious people (shirley phelps please) with very opposing controversial views

2 black girls 1 black man at least

other than that i want a surrealist artist, homeless person, a very rich person, a mother of 7, stripper, farmer, judge, street artist, Greenpeace activist, veteran

[Adamw92]

Outspoken, opinionated people who like to argue. :D

[Denver]

Fatties i can abuse

[Northern Monkey]

Mental bastards but nobody connected to the media or any celebrities in any way at all.

[lewis111]

there is obviously going to be the few good looking 22-26 year olds who are single because they still want a showmance, but I'm hoping there's maybe only like 3 or 4 of them this year
At least 4 maybe 5 people 45+
Then just some really weird people
And a really broad range who will argue or learn something from others
like someone who is really religious and someone who is anti-religious or very rich and poor

[Samm]

Diverse in ethics and ages, less love island types

[Amy Jade]

Crazy folk

[Cal.]

A BB6 cast 2.0

[Babayaro.]

I feel like we're going to be massively disappointed with these housemates in terms of diversity :worry:

I'd be very surprised tbh, they have two houses to fill. They at least should get some right.

Pretty much the same, housemates more reflective of the UK and not a bunch of wannabes and models would be ideal but probs too much to hope for. C5 havent not predominantly filled it with young twats ever

[karl100589]

I'd like to see an Asian female, Lisa Huo is the only one I can think of off the top of my head.
