Why is there no one over 40 yrs
 
Again this year BB has boobed!

Why is there not a bigger age range? There was always better viewing when there was older housemates - this time they are all to near each others age except Steve.:elephant:

Yeah the mix is sh!te. Allister should have deffo got in instead of David, Sunshine or Shabba. Useless trio from what I can see so far.

Not much love potential either.

I was very disappointed and hoped that BB would do right and in this last season put at least a few over-40s in here.

Right.. Steve is just 40 or 41. At least we got that but what a disappointment after all.
I totally agree a few in 40s or 50s (or older) definitely does make it more interesting and would now.

They needed to put Faith in! She was 66!

Executive Producers don't like mature conversations - better to get a few teeenies on. Niki is coming in 24 August once BB11 is over...............dumbass decision

Mario was a complete tosser but hilarious as a 40 year old who wanted fame by BB just as the kiddies did

It really is to get those teeny votes coming in but I believe they could have found a way to 'win win' giving adults some adults to follow,
yet,
having adults to give the 'contrast' for the younger ones to be that much younger,
and,
there has to be a way they can get big votes from teens by actually having some 'boring old people' (in the teens minds) to rebel against and who they can imagine are parents they can 'boo' and 'vote against'?

I agree Mario was hilarious as well as Lisa as they seemed to want to recapture their youth. I think Mario's eviction might have been more peoples most beloved 'booing' than anyone else in recent time lol

I was thinking this - hair extensions, hair straighteners, soy sauce coloured hair dye, oompa-loompa orange 'tan',
and,
possible some pec implants?

You only need to watch a few hours of live-feeds and - like it or not - you can know more about hair-straighteners than most people could ever gather in a lifetime.
If BB ever wants to create a massive drama they only need to remove the hair-straighteners and absolute all hell breaks out all over the place... and that is just the men!
I just checked out the live-feeds last night and I'm sure I already heard conversations about hair-straighteners and what kind of make-up they have and how they can borrow or share certain kinds of 'product'.

I'm putting a lot of hopes in Steve to be some kind of adult conversations with.. oh no... it IS going to be 12 weeks more about hair-extensions ughh!

I'm in the over 40s group but pleased there aren't older people in the house. They often tend to take control and don't get nominated although they are often boring - remember
Dean & Elizabeth and Carole

Crimson Dynamo 10-06-2010 09:27 AM

maybe over 40s dont enter BB auditions?

smaller pool to pick from

Kazanne 10-06-2010 09:29 AM

very naughty of BB to pick all youngish people,i saw some older ones in the crowd ,so surely BB should have picked at least one,it really should have more of an age range.
