Being Canadian, somewhere between British and American, and having watched the show for about 5 seasons, the only observation that I have drawn about the great british public from this show is the regional bias that goes on in voting. Certain housemates have stayed or gone over the years due to accent of small dialact differences. "Posh" people are always voted out, or never win, regardless of how great they are as housemates (ie Ben or Harry). Pretty Essex contestants stay on but for what reason I can never see, and the British public always seem to back the underdog in the end.
Casting usually involves one set type from various counties or regions, and I like this because it gives me a greater insight into the diversity of Britian.
And as has been said, BBUK is a far cry away from the baseness that is BBUS, but it is slowly creeping in that direction.
