Default Housemate's Ages

Do you like all of the hm's to be similar ages or a decent mix of various ages?

Mix.

BB12 showed what a bunch of braindead early 20s personality vacuums gives you. A non starter of a series.

More older than younger, the young housemates spoil every series, but hope BB have learned from last few series where the real entertainment has come from the older housemates

I like to see a mixture of ages. I don't think it works when they have one or two older and the rest younger, it has to be a real mix.

I like a mix of ages. I wish they'd put a decent Cougar in there though, the one's we've had over the years have been terrible.

Similar ages will be good, late 20s to mid 30s should be about right.

There always is a age group separation in the house when there are late teens/early20 somethings with late 30s/older HM's on the other side of the divide....and always the public wrongly favours the younger HM's.

Mixed is better. Although I think when we all say we want 'old' housemates we mean no older than 50, 60 absolute maximum - I don't enjoy watching a series of an old person I think could die at any given moment.
