The rest a good mixture of ages and talents.

umm no

you only need one LGBTQ+ celebrity to appeal to that demographic


also you also have diversity in the POC contestants though

Layton = Jamaican roots
Krishnan = Indian roots
Eddie = Congolese roots

all with roots from 3 different continents in the world



i'm already more happy we have (some) elderly taking part again, as that has been a while now, will deffo root for Angela Rippon and also Les Dennis (i am like 98% sure he is in now Miss Scanlon was officially revealed) to hopefully avoid the first few eliminations


as for a ''Love Island'' star like Zara being in, i'm personally not against including reality stars as long as they got other claims to fame than their LI fame
