I was 25 when Big Brother started. I am now 41...Watched every series of non-celeb and celeb BB.. I really feel outside of the target audience now but i continue to watch, much to the amusement of my friends! Anyone else?

Same kinda feeling but I'm a bit older than you

The demo is around 16-30

I am a fair bit older. I know quite a few people 40-60 who watch most series.

Me too, my Mother is 80 this year, and she never misses an episode.

There have been polls in the past asking for people's ages and the results always showed that people over 45 were far and away the largest age group. I am 74 and have never missed a series.

Early 50s and I watch all of them.

Colleagues and friends who watch are anywhere from early 20s to mid 60s.

This is all good!! I get a lot of ridicule like "oh you're not still watching that sh*t are you..." Now i feel kinda young!!

Same here. I was about 28 when it started. 43 now. I do feel cast out of the target audience these days but I've come this far. I'll probably see it through to the bitter end. Or my own

I've been watching since series 2, did'nt watch last summer's civilian or cbb. I'm 50 April, don't enjoy it has much now.

I wonder why I get mad at the program now... I can never reason whether it's because i can see how BB has developed to what it is now, or whether its me getting older... Probably a mixture of both

I'm in the older group too and a long term viewer .. from Nasty Nick .. to 'Shall I Be The Cat' to the Shilpa series that had Parliament talking .. and now to the TOWIE spinoff. Yes still watching but I feel like the producers would rather I didn't.

And you are one of my fav forum members as well. Always look forward to reading your posts jean.

Hiya Moosey, hope you are well love. I know it seems years that we all have watched BB. To my shame I still have the first BB1 video that they brought out after the show finished,lol.

My mother is in her 60s and despite always pretending she is above it at the start of a series she's glued to it to the point of irritation midway through.

I still have the BB1,2 & 3 DVDs... Funny how a BB4 DVD never got made.... I even have a book about series 2 that came out! I'm thinking e-bay

I remember there being a magazine out in series 3.

Aww thank you {{{hugs}}}.
