The ages of the housemates entering tonight vary from 23 - 49

According to @BeingBBUK on Twitter who have the Press Pack

[Vanessa]

Older housemates!

[Daniel.]

No one younger than 23?

[*mazedsalv**]

That's pretty much the perfect age range. Too young are too into their looks/not very entertaining. Guessing an average of 28-35 then.

Makes a bloody change good

[Henry2014]

Yeah but last year did too and it made no difference, in fact Jemima was the only person I voted to evict, and Jackie drove me crazy. I would prefer a bunch of interesting characters, than a cast of people who 5 are trying to make a greater demographic.

[Black Dagger]

That's brilliant

Although that is just tonight, maybe they'll stick the 18-21 demographic in tomorrow

[Josy]

Good range then

c5 have got better with the age range since ben frow took over as controller on c5 jeff ford just stuck aload of under 30s in

[Kizzy]

Oh that's good, hopefully that will stop the splintering into 'kids' and 'parent' roles... that was so annoying, you're all flipping adults you could actually see some regress as soon a they walked in the door

[HBB1508]

Great news I do think a spread of ages is good for the show.

[Loukas]

49
woo! Older Housemates

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Perfect age group.

CBB proves that different ages provide the most entertainment with the olders usually the most entertaining tbh and most of the winners being 40+.

Look at the likes of Michael Madsen, Jim Davidson, Carol Mcgiffin, Denise Welch making total arseholes out of themselves lol its great.

[Jake.]

Really good news!

[JohnnyBB]

You can't say accurately that about all young people, it is the people they cast. Most people by 20 are past that vanity. Plus there is no 'perfect' age range, it depends on the personalities.

I think a slightly older cast was to be expected if they're going for cunning, intelligent people who have been in the media. More younger people haven't had to demonstrate that they can be devious on account of less experience in the adult world and have had less time to appear in the media.
