New concept for the possibly final civilian BB....
 
Only allow 45 to 60 year olds.....Joe made a very good point on BOTS and I actually agreed.

We all watch CBB and it's usually the older housemates that give the entertainment.

Or what about doing a pensioner version? Lol I mean we've had teen BB so why not?

Barry. 08-07-2017 12:12 AM

Hmmm, not really. Maybe add more older ones though.

Greg! 08-07-2017 12:13 AM

Worst idea I've ever heard.

The stairs to be replaced by a Stannah stairlift?

Barry. 08-07-2017 12:21 AM

Lots of prune juice instead of wine and beer?

pontyboi 08-07-2017 12:21 AM

Imo it's actually a really fresh idea....getting the older generation in who speak their minds and have genuine things to talk about sounds like a hit to me.

Hardly any youngsters watch BB they need to cater to their audience.

Jason. 08-07-2017 12:22 AM

Hmm I have a better idea:

Bring in Busto from BBUS6 to call the 3 people in the crowd pieces of shit when they jeer her for not being British

Also a lot of constipation....real talk instead of 20 something's who have all been on reality TV previously.

Yes to the last part.

I'm not here for the pc brigade lol

Yeah I actually think it would be a great idea. People with real life experience would be very interesting to watch.

It's worked in CBB, they usually have an older group.

I think I may have just made a discovery.

OAPBB

Well I'm gonna email Ben Frow lol because noones interested in 24 year old blondes on BB anymore.

Do you not think it would be hilarious and an actual social experiment putting a bunch of OAP's in the house?

Tv gold.....we all have or have had grans who just say it as it is and that's what we need.....age is just a number.

pontyboi 08-07-2017 02:20 AM

Actually to edit that yes old people are hilarious because they just chat the truth BUT it would be interesting how they deal with the pc crew of today.

pontyboi 08-07-2017 02:38 AM

Well tried emailing him but he's blocked me after I posted this YouTube clip.

He's not a tit like Marcus Bentley but he's well on his way.

But really the older ones provide the entertainment by clashing with other generations, rarely with their own.

Not here for Betty and Theresa cleaning the bathroom.

vixenk99 09-07-2017 03:57 PM

I'd like to see a wider array of age groups. Half and half would be ideal - half in their 20's and 30's, half 40+. Regular people would be nice too.

Greg! 09-07-2017 03:58 PM

There has barely been any good housemates between the ages of 45 to 60. Most of the greats were in their 20s and 30s. I'm all for having more diverse ages but having a house full of grannies and grandads would be crap.

storybrooke 09-07-2017 04:09 PM

Tbh I am here for an OAP BB. It would be a good social experiment like you said

reece(: 09-07-2017 04:13 PM

Only if they consist of Carole, Lea, Lise, Natalie, Jayne, Pauline, Tracey, Lesley, Sue, Jackie Travers, Jemima and Victoria.

Why is this the perfect cast?

SteveG2688 09-07-2017 04:44 PM

I would like to see a house thats half and half. There are never many older housemates in there, some years we dont get any.

That's actually a really good idea.

Pensioners vs wannabes lol. The fact is BB needs a big shake up to get interest again and they need to pull a stunt which has never been done before and actually intersting and original.

Totally here for OAPBB still.
