Oldest Cast in Ages?
 

People moan about the series being "too young", but isn't this year one of the oldest ever?

Yes we have ten Under 30 but...

Twins- 30
Evelyn- 30
Laura- 30
Charlie- 31
Hughie- 31
Andy- 34
Jason- 45
Chelsea- 48
Jayne- 49
Natalie- 52

I think that is the most over 40s in a while on BB.

Compare that to...

BB1 where all Hms bar Caroline, Nick and Tom were under 30.
BB2 where all HMs bar Dean, Stuart or Penny were under 30
BB3 where all Hms bar Lynn and Sandy were under 30
BB4 were all HMs bar Cameron, Gos and Lisa were under 30.

etc...

So, please, look at the facts. The cast are getting older, not younger.

Yes and weirdly it doesn't feel like it.

I keep forgetting the enviro Twins are 30.

This cast. I love them even more seeing those numbers

Christ, i thought the twins were about 20

It's very good, easily the best mix on C5

Just a shame there's not the diversity there was in other facets like BB10

Btw Evelyn is 20 and Hughie is 21.

Still not enough freaks tho.

This cast has a lot of energy. Doesn't feel old at all. Feels young

But when we get 60 and 70 year olds in CBB it doesn't seem as impressive

It's probably one of the most diverse in terms of sexuality, though - of the male cast alone, three of them are gay and another's bi

First male foursome?

True, but then I quite liked BB16's cast on launch because they all seemed relatively normal so idk

I like a mix :laugh:

Rylan to watch through the camera runs with his cock out like a porno?

It's actually got the highest average age

Average ages for each series:

BB1 - 28
BB2 - 28
BB3 - 26
BB4 - 27
BB5 - 26
BB6 - 24
BB7 - 26
BB8 - 28
BB9 - 26
BB10 - 26
BB11 - 27
BB12 - 24
BB13 - 25
BB14 - 28
BB15 - 27
BB16 - 27

BB17 (excluding others) - 29
BB17 (including others) - 31

Darnell and Billi behind the cams?

His mum to turn up halfway through?

Not Rylan telling the truth

There we are, incl the others, only average age over 30!

There's still no Lesley Brain in this cast tho.

i moaned about the hms being too young earlier but i must not have been paying enough attention to their ages if that's the case, they all look like young beautiful 20 year old :laugh:

they all seem to know each other though, they're obviously prevalent on the z list scene. i wasn't paying too much attention to twitter but whenever i occasionally looked there seemed to be a lot of moaning about the media connections they all have, i really hope people stick with it tho and it rates well because OMG it felt so much more professional (minus the crowd :omgno:) they've put notably more effort into production this year

I still wanted a crazy old lady :(

yes Evelyn is actually 20 but fkn hell I thought Charlie was about 49 :hehe:

I'm surprised to see BB6's average is that low tbh but then I remember about a third of the cast were 19 years old so

See how BB6 and BB12 have the same average age but polar opposite series. Says a lot

Their diversity was mega different

Can a mod infract me for putting BB6 ans BB12 in the same sentence

Its a good mix of ages, its just a pisspoor mix of personality traits. Half of them are just gobby, sexy and stupid and all of the others (excluding Andy) have at least one of those three traits too, just like 95% on C5 housemates before them.

BB6, BB12, and BB13 are the lowest 3.

BB12 is the lowest with 24.06 whilst BB6's is 24.44. And BB13's is 24.76.

BB6 and BB13 are quite close actually and BB13 is like C5's take on BB6 imo. So there's a similarity there.

There's only ever been 5 HMs who are 50+ (Natalie included) - and they've all been female (Lesley, Jackie, Carole, Natalie & Eileen)

An old man on civvy BB would be dull tbh. :worry: The closest we've gotten was Jonathan BB8 who was 49 and look how that turned out

He was still one of the better males that series

As was Simon last year

Jonathan was one of the worst males in BB8 imo

IA with Simon though

Yes, that's the problem - regardless of age (or ethnicity) they all seem to be Z-Lister clones, like the cast of Hollyoaks or Emmerdale.

Not Evil Jonathon being one of the best BB8 males!

Him, Gerry and Ziggy were easily the unholy trinity, with Seany and Liam itching to join them too

I want a random 80-year old man to rock up and have no idea what he's doing

Ahmed was great though <333 I agree that sticking to females is best :clap1:

LT out on day release?

oop I thought he was messy and witty and didn't stick around too long to grate

Gerry, Ziggy, Liam and Jonty remain the worst imo!

Jason is like the 2nd oldest male HM ever, isn't he behind Simon? What about Derek and Jonathan?

no shade for legends Gerry and Jonty
