Spinning off from the casting thread if you were to put together your perfect cast list based on the housemates as they were at the time they were originally in the house, who would you pick? Can anyone even remember 12-16 housemates names, or would it just be three months of just Sara Marie and Reggie living together?

BBAU Ageless All Stars - the perfect cast?

This sounds like a fun activity, I'm going to create my own shortlist and think way too much about it before I select a final cast.
The full list of housemates here:
en.wikipedia.org
I'm starting with a couple of HMs from each series then will narrow it down. They're not necessarily my favourites, just ticking casting boxes and picking housemates who made an impression, whether good or bad. In all likelihood with the early series I'm getting the names mixed up anyway.
1: Blair and Sara-Marie
2: Marty and Jessica (struggled recalling anyone from this series but were these two the couple, so that ticks the showmance box)
3: Regina and Chrissie
4: Ryan and Merlin
5: Tim and Vesna
6: David and Dino
7: Alesha and Zach
8: Brigitte and Nobby
9: Layla and Estelle (seemingly the only series where I can put a face to every name)
10: Tahan and Tully
11: Priya and Skye
12: Angela (the tea lady?) and Xavier
13: Marley and Daniel (think I hated Daniel as he got the producers edit but he's the only other one I remember)
14: Taras and Tim (didn't watch this at all)
15: Graciemae and Jake
Found it tricky to pick a second for series 11-14, or anyone from series 2 (as I'm just not that familar with it). Will narrow it down later to around 15 housemates.

For me, it is hard to choose. There were lots (of cast members) to really like and just as many to dislike. But, even if you disliked certain cast members, they made the show interesting purely for the fact that you (and perhaps the cast members who were in the house with them) didn't like them ... it made for some intriguing interactions and viewing. For that reason, I'd put some I liked and some I disliked in to my choices. It would be interesting to see if the disliked cast members get along well with the liked cast members, and perhaps end up changing my, your, and other cast member's perception of them. After all, isn't that what BB is all about ... the interesting and intriguing interactions between the cast members?
So, with all of that said, it becomes hard for me to choose who to pick.

See I'd have Johnny and Gordon because I liked their relationship (and think Johnny was a bit into him tbh. Maybe it went both ways?). Yes, I know he's no longer with us but this is a hypothetical.Blair (BB1)

Editing my earlier list down, remembering these are based on the characters they were when originally in the house and you need some HMs who will cause friction:
1: Sara-Marie
2: Marty
3: Regina
4: Merlin
5: Vesna
6: Dino
7: Alesha
8: Nobby
9: Layla
10: Tahan
11: Priya
12: Angela
13: Marley
14: Taras
15: Graciemae
A 9:6 female split as the 9 era was poor male HM wise but the viewers will soon get that down to 6:6. I think someone like Vesna is a perfect intruder - had she been in from the beginning a high chance she'd have gone first.

Ooh - that's something where AI might actually be worthwhile. HMs living with their older/younger self.Dream imaginary cast I want old and young Dave
Oh great we could have TWO Tullies.Ooh - that's something where AI might actually be worthwhile. HMs living with their older/younger self.
Would they get on though?Oh great we could have TWO Tullies.

The older one have the hindsight to tell the younger one to stay the hell away from Drew - it will only end badly for her in so many ways. The younger one would then sulk cos the older one was telling her what to do.Would they get on though?![]()
