Why dont they cast OAP's for civvy?

[Wizard.]

When we could have iconic housemates like Kim.

[lewis111]

Because they are less likely to have a showmance

[Denver]

Because that reached their peak with Lesley?

[LemonJam]

Older housemates are generally better lets be honest:

BB8 Lesley
BB17 Jayne
BB5 Ahmed
BB9 Belinda
BB3 Sandy
BB7 Susie
BB9 Mario
BB6 Derek
BB9 Lisa

[Jake.]

god knows, older housemates are generally fantastic

[Shaun]

let's not forget Jackie Travers, Simon Gross, Lea Walker and Carole Vincent <3

[Headie]

Well Natalie is basically Kim but like 20 years difference and that didn't end too well...

Not many pensioners would act as a chavvy nasty bint likeKim to be fair.

"OAPs" I don't know about but I do wish they still cast "adult" housemates. There used to regularly be housmates in the 30 - 50 age range... these days, it's pretty much Club 18-30.

A while back, I read some statistics on the number of older people that apply, and it is not that many.

This plus do they even get any HMs from applications anymore, they all seem to have agents with contacts these days

My main problem with the older housemates these days is that while some of them are entertaining, nobody can say anything to or about them without being accused of being bullies or ageist, it does my nut in.

It was a producer from a later Channel 4 series that said that. Was about to edit the post, but it has been quoted, heh.
