2 tick tockers and a former Miss Universe? Yep, as i thought, manufactured "diversity". Not actual real life modern day Britain diversity. Oh well, lets just hope it's entertaining.

What i mean is, they have to go down the social media road. I was hoping for more diverse as in just regular people not all over the internet. A nurse, a bricklayer, a dentist, a circus performer. But they get these "diverse" bunch in with a social media presence in the hope of getting more eyes on the show (which is fine to some to degree) as they know social media people have loyal followers. Im not slating the process, i really hope it's good, but we've had far too many wannabe famous people in the house in the past, mainly C5 era, and it's just boring to see now.

We'll see. I was hoping more for a mid 2000's ish kinda revival. BB's heyday. But i guess times change, im not overly optimistic , but i do hope it'll be a great series.

Exactly this. Ordinary people who never get the spotlight. Next year they need to advertise the fact ANYONE can audition. Maybe put a little ad out there.. Doesn't matter if your a cleaner, construction worker, manager, nurse, doctor, receptionist, warehouse worker, delivery driver, graphic designer, IT support, gardener, dog walker, teacher, police, unemployed, etc... you ALL have the chance to go in the house.
I'm not diminishing Content creators going in. We need 1 or 2 of them because it is a normal job now in today's society. But actually I rather them people jump into the Celebrity version. Because we all know the term "Celebrity" is very vague.
The magic of Big Brother is seeing people who have NEVER been in the spotlight.
But I'll let the odd 1 or 2 off...
