I actually have a feeling that we’re going to get a BB10-like cast next year, by casting eccentric and quirky individuals, that can bring entertainment and drama without being too offensive.
I mean obviously people would love it if they casted in the style of 5 and 6, but no way would ITV risk that, these series that I mentioned would be taken off the air midway if they aired today. I wouldn’t want to see a cast like 7’s back because let’s face it, most of the cast were duds and only a few strong characters carried the series. I would say the same thing about 8 (most of the men were terrible in both of these series, and the women really did carry them).
9’s cast, while good, were at times repulsive as well, and don’t even get me started on 11, probably the worst job C4 has done with casting (with the exception of Series 4)
I think it’s actually very difficult these days to cast a series similar to the first four. There’s this authenticity about that time period that is hard to capture.
While C5 did hit the gold with casting at times (13, 17, parts of 14, 16 and 18), I wouldn’t want to see their formula and casting style back as well, because it didn’t work more times than it did.
So yes, to conclude, I won’t be surprised if the casting team based their housemates on BB10.
