BB needs a range of HMs but people need to be there on merit, not age - and the older the more entertaining they need to be. 21-45 is the ideal age for BB HMs - a good range of ages which reflects the audience watching.

I agree. Looking back on past series' of Big Brother, the best ones had a range in ages. In BB5 everyone was between 21-45 and thats one of the best series' to date. The older housemates also usually had a story to tell too and that showed in their personality, e.g. Derek from BB6 was a british lobbyist and was speechwriter for Margaret Thatcher.

It makes for better TV when each individual housemate comes from a range of backgrounds and places in the UK, is entertaining in their own way and are from a range of social classes.
