RedTwoster Posted October 7, 2024 Posted October 7, 2024 So the new series is underway, and they’ve already inflicted an unnecessary twist on us. I hated the divide in series 3, so I hope that this one is very short-lived. It’s hard to judge any of the housemates at this point, but anyone that uses the word ‘woke’ can get in the bin. Hopefully that guy learns something from being around a diverse group of people. Quote

I don’t think it’s been advertised quite as well this time. I had a quick look at the housemates and on the BBUK Reddit to see what I’d missed and I might skip this series tbh. Only one over 40 and the rest are all apparently love island wannabes with turkey teeth. General consensus was pretty negative. Quote
The Gaffer Posted October 7, 2024 Posted October 7, 2024 Same here. Had a quick look at the lineup and it looks like it's reverted back to the Channel 5 years of a lineup of almost entirely pretty young things. Just never what I've been interested in from the show, and any real ties it had with the classic years were just about barely holding on for me anyway. When I looked at the lineup I had one of those "I could watch it, or save myself 20+ hours over the next couple of months if I just start ignoring it now" standing on the precipice type moments. Fuck that. Quote

Fuck that. The combined age of the housemates this year is older than last year...the age ranges don't seem that far out: When I watched the launch last year I wasn't sure about the housemates but I really got into it. I've got a better feeling about this year as this bunch seems to have a lot more personality. On 10/7/2024 at 9:32 AM, Chili said: My friend Emma is in this, I just found out myself last night.

Amazingly he’s come across better than a few of the others so far. Not a compliment to him as much as it is an utter condemnation of the people in question. Marcelo and Lily are horrific. Quote

The King of Old School Posted October 10, 2024 Posted October 10, 2024 Surprised there is still a market for this, channel 4 canned it at the right time back in 2010 I feel. Quote
