This is what I say:

5 People in their 20's
3 People in their 30's
2 People in their 40's
2 People that are 50+

Satisfying, no? Seems overall fair.

I say leave it to the producers to decide if someone is "interesting" enough to be on it, and really that has nothing to do with age/colour/class/gender/sexual preference or anything else.

Here are all the age averages of each series for more details:

BB1 - 28
BB2 - 28
BB3 - 26
BB4 - 27
BB5 - 25
BB6 - 25
BB7 - 25

This is somewhat misleading. BB6 had Craig, Leslie and Vanessa who were all under 20. Also, Makosi, Kinga, Saskia, Maxwell and Science who were 20-25. The only reason the average is 25 is due to Roberto and Derek who were 38 and 40.

Very true. Average age doesn't really tell us anything.

It's not about the age, it's about the personality. Put bad nan in from Catherine Tate I say! lol What a ****in liberty!

LMAO! So funny mr. LuvaLuva, but it proves my point that old people are mean and horrible and young people are nice and like to have fun. haha

Only joking mr. LuvaLuva and Stropz, i know some old people who are nice, I just want to see young people like myself. lol

People in theit 40's are not old. They should be by then more mature.....Which may make them boring.

What matters with a show like BB is not age but flexible personaity (young at heart) and physical fittness...

Most older people ie. In their 50's and 60's would probably be far to wise to enter such a cruel format of a show so that age group is unlikely to appear.....

If a 60 year old is fit and young at heart they could be just as interesting as a 20 year old but sadly not as glamourous. which is also a reason for youngsters not to want to see older people on the show.
