A group of people who randomly popped into my head. I'd think it'd be what Channel 5 would try to go for, although some of them may be a little unrealistic. Hey ho.
Enzo Maccarinelli – boxer and WBO title holder – think a budget Joe Calzaghe. Could be popular in a Gareth Thomas-sort of way, without being too controversial.
Scott Sinclair – Manchester City footballer, also known for allowing Helen Flanagan to be more famous than she should be. Would probably be popular with teenage girls as he looks like a lost member of JLS.
Jody Latham – ‘star’ of Shameless and EastEnders, and ex of Tulisa. He was also in Hell’s Kitchen, but didn’t last long. Could make the final, despite being relatively unlikable. An alternative would be more likeable
Adam Deacon.
Jack & Finn Harries – we know that one day ‘YouTube celebrities’ will start appearing, so we may as well speed up the process. Twin bloggers with over two million subscribers, in a long line of Samanda, Jedward and K&K.
David Armstrong-Jones, Viscount Linley – nephew of The Queen, his furniture business is down the pan and was caught up in a scandal a few years back. He’d walk early on.
Jean-Claude Van Damme – certainly doesn’t need the money, but would bring in the viewers I’d suspect. That Coors Light advert still gets an airing or two, though, so…
Nicole Richie – friend to Paris Hilton, adopted daughter to Lionel Richie and all round talent-free zone. One of the more famous names going in, but wouldn’t last long.
Leilani Dowding – the ‘older’ glamour model, but unlike Jasmine and Paula, would likely fade into the background. Think a lot of crying, bikini shots and a midweek eviction.
Emily Atack – known as an Inbetweeners actress and a former contestant on Dancing on Ice, so isn’t a stranger to reality TV. Has also been in Celebrity Juice, Rock and Chips and BBLB.
Ellie Simmonds – again, one of the bigger names, and the ‘nation’s sweetheart’ for the series in the same way that Denise and Coleen were – except a lot younger and a lot less drunk.
Kathy Burke – representing the older stateswomen and serving a bit of comic relief. Best known as Linda La Hughes in Gimme Gimme Gimme. She may want to leave at various points, though.
Seren Gibson – obligatory boobs, and has appeared in the Daily Star (a.k.a the BB paper), Zoo and something called My Crazy Media Life for aforementioned. Cheapo option.
Speech Debelle – rapper and winner of the 2009 Mercury Prize, who has since faded into obscurity bar appearing on this year’s Celebrity Masterchef. A possible late entrant.
Me? Putting too much thought into it?
