Including BB16 (if you wish), which housemates from BB12 onwards do you think could have cropped up in the Channel 4 years?

[LukeB]

I honestly have no idea
maybe Sam and Caroline idk

[Rob!]

Any of them could, it's the same show

[Jake.]

From BB12: Aaron, Rebeckah, Harry

From BB13: Sara, Lauren, Luke A, Caroline, Adam

From BB14: Sophie, Jackie/Charlie, Callum, Wolfie, Dan

From BB15: Christopher, Chris, Pauline, Jale, Danielle

From BB16: Harriet, Aaron, Sarah, Nick, Chloe

In a show now supposedly focused on models and fame-hungry recruits, it isn't

But the show has always been known for having models and fame hungry people

Yes but not to the extent we've had in recent years

It's basically just asking what housemates from recent years you could imagine starring in the shows former glory days

[LukeB]

i can't imagine any C5 HMs on C4 BB tbh because I known them for C5 and I imagined Sam/Caroline on C4 and it looked strange

idk if this will make sense cuz i'm tired but they have that C5 and series look after watching them on that series and channel

[Maneki-neko]

I think many C5 Housemates could have been on Channel 4, but maybe not like Gina or Dexter.

Yeah it does make sense, I've just always envisioned certain housemates from 2011 onwards staring in the golden years

[M X]

BB12
Tom, Rebeckah, Heaven, Alex, Aaron, Jay, Mark

BB13
Sara, Lauren, Adam, Luke A, Caroline, Becky, Shievonne, Deana

BB14
Wolfy, Sam, Jemima, Sophie, Jack & Joe, Gina

BB15
Biannca, Jale, Pauline, Toya, Christopher, Chris, Helen, Ashleigh

BB16
Adjoa, Harriet, Eileen, Aaron, Nick, Chloe

Some are a mix of both C4 and C5 like Deana, Gina, and Ashleigh.
To me the biggest difference between the C4 and C5 housemates is that the C4 ones seemed much more unguarded and less aware of the cameras and were deeper into the whole experience of BB.

[MB.]

...I don't think the casting's too different? Apart from slightly fewer older HMs.

[Daniel.]

All of them really, but not all in the same series, if that makes sense.

So I could imagine the whole cast of BB12 and BB13 cast for example, just not in the same series.

[Lostie!]

I honestly don't think C4 had significantly less fame hungry housemates. From at least BB6 onwards I think that's been the general trend with a lot of housemates.

C5 might have more recruits though, I'm not sure how much C4 recruited.

[Daniel.]

Derek was a recruit as was Lea and Imogen.

That's all I know.

Yeah, fame hungry housemates were present for a long time during C4, but they weren't quite as glossy and robotic as some of TOWIE rejects that we've had through the C5 era.

[Daniel.]

Brilliant housemates like Kemal and Charley were huge wannabes, it genuinely doesn't bother me in the slightest.

[Denver]

Some CH4 housmates had just as much exposure before they entered
