Default Which cast was the most intelligent?

Just curious what people think. Andy talking in the DR about a lack of intelligent conversations in the house made me wonder, when in BB has there actually been a cast with many intelligent people? Of course, intelligence is subjective but I guess I'm asking it in relation to the cast with the most amount of people who were able to have intellectual conversations/could articulate themselves well. Ironically, upon thought BB15 was the one I ended up coming up with. It may have been an unlikeable cast but there were quite a few people in the cast who were intelligent or had established their career through some intellectual merit. Some intelligent people that come up for me and the BB15 cast were:

Christopher - a journalist
Chris - actor, but was eloquent and was quite analytical about his time in the house.
Pav - property business manager and also spoke quite strategically about the game.
Steven - managing director, well travelled
Kimberly - business woman, law masters student
Matthew - media graduate and was always well-spoken. Writes well too looking at his huffington post entertainment blogs.
Tamara - oil and gas headhunter, a job that isn't easy to achieve and requires a certain amount of intelligence and ambition.

What are your thoughts? I still hate BB15 with a passion as a season but this does make me appreciate the cast a little bit more, upon reflection. Vote in the poll!

From what I remember i'm going to say BB15 for the same reasons you said Helen and Mark are the only ones who have no intelligence in that season.

This season Andy and Georgina seem to be the only intelligent ones as well as being the only sane/mature/normal ones. I do feel Evelyn is also intelligent but we have yet to see her

6 had quite a lot of housemates with degrees and a lot of world experience - I know Kemal, Vanessa, Roberto, Eugene, Derek and Orlaith off the top of my head could hold their own well. For all of the dumb arguments, Science and Makosi seemed quite intelligent too. Sam I think tried to build herself up as too intelligent for the house with her diary room moans but I didn't really recall her saying anything too substantial.

4 reminds me of endless Jon Tickle science talk and I think a few of the others managed to keep up with it, so I voted for that too.

And 13 seemed quite a savvy cast with the obvious duds aside - Scott, Adam, Benedict, Lydia, Victoria, Sara and Deana all seemed relatively intelligent. Even Caroline, even if she never bloody displayed it.

BB15's cast weren't intelligent lmao. Just cause they were dressed in suits on launch night and looked like an Apprentice cast, they turned out to be the thickest bunch.

I think BB is more noted for its less than intelligent cast from time to time

Last year was quite a vintage year in that respect, but this year i would say even more so.

IA with BB6.

Derek, Kemal, Roberto, Eugene, Science and Orlaith were quite intelligent people I thought and Vanessa (although she played the thick card in her VT and didn't come across as intelligent in the house) has done well for herself outside the house and is a lawyer and went to Harvard. Makosi was also a cardiac nurse.

And for 'model-type' females, Sam and Saskia weren't necessarily unintelligent either - especially when compared to some of the females we got in BB8 and in the C5-era.

Anthony, Maxwell, and Lesley were probably the ones that weren't really intelligent.

Yeah I agree with BB6. Maybe BB9 as well (minus the obvious likes of Bex, Sylvia, Kat and so on)
