Here's my attempt at a realistic cast with even genders
Now before you come @me, there's reasonings below for any ones you're confused by, as this was an attempt at a realistic cast rather than bringing in any personal opinion.
UBB1 had 8 BB housemates and 6 CBB housemates. However, this hypothetical scenario by me has 8 CBB housemates and 6 BB housemates. This is mainly due to Ch5 generally preferring airing CBBs and it usually being more successful for them as well as there being much more CBBs than BBs in Ch5. I also didn't include anyone from BB12, BB13 or BB15 for a combination of those series either having no housemates I think the producers would approach despite being suitable for this format (Aaron
, Helen
and Deana
.), or having no housemates suitable for the format altogether.
Anyone I didn't mention that was mentioned by someone else is due to them either being a) people I think the show neglects thinking about much, b) people I don't think would qualify enough to be ultimate, c) people that wouldn't want anything to do with the show, or d) people that the show would never want to touch with a barge pole with ever again.
