[[/folder]]

[[/folder]]

[[folder:Space]]
->'''Played By:''' Adam Deacon

* AndThenJohnWasAZombie: Turns after being bitten in the finale.
%%* CelebritySurvivor
* TheLancer: To Kelly.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Or rather, his stage name.
* OnlySaneMan: Space is the only housemate who seems content to keep to himself, remain calm and approach problems in a rational manner. He's also the first housemate to realize something's wrong when the outbreak happens outside. Everyone else bickers about mundane crap, but Space figures out that the cameras are unmanned.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: The morning after the outbreak, when Marky and Grayson start an argument over the latter using the last egg Space decides he's done with the show and is about to leave, however when he tries to enter the diary room Big Brother doesn't respond, making him realize something isn't right.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Patrick Goad]]
->'''Played By:''' Andy Nyman

* AssholeVictim: Given that he is willing to throw others under the bus to save himself, it's not sad to see himself being killed by the zombies.
* BadBoss: The worst one you can ever work for.
* BreakingSpeech: Gives an utterly brutal one to Joplin.
-->''"You're old. You're a pervert. You're pretentious. You stink the bog out. Your clothes make you look like a cunt! They have poured insults over you like buckets of cum! D'you know what they call you when you're out the room? Eh? Gollum."''
* ClusterFBomb: One right after the other, all the time. Amusingly, even while he's been torn to pieces by a mass of zombies he's still screaming insults at them.
* DeadpanSnarker: He may be utterly horrible, but there's no denying he has the best lines.
* DevouredByTheHorde: In the finale.
* DirtyCoward: When the zombies first attack he holds the door shut, locking his assistant outside to get eaten, and then shoves a man in a wheelchair in front of the zombie chasing him to escape.
* FloweryInsults: Drifts into these from time to time, calling Pippa 'specimen' and 'fetus'.
* HateSink: Is he ever! A DirtyCoward who is fine with leaving others at the mercy of zombies as long as he can live, need to spell it out for you?
* {{Jerkass}}: Undeniably so.
%%* JerkassHasAPoint
* KarmicDeath: Easily suffers the goriest and most agonizing death out of all the characters, and quite deservedly so after all the horrible things he'd done up to that point.
* ManipulativeBastard: He coerces Joplin into setting him free by (truthfully) revealing that all the other housemates hate him.
%%* ManipulativeEditing
* OffWithHisHead: His head is ripped off after a long and agonizing feast.
* SurroundedByIdiots: And the worst thing is, he's not wrong.
-->'''Patrick:''' ''"Are you on a personal mission to redefine ineptitude?"''
* TokenEvilTeammate: He doesn't give a flying fuck about the other people around him.
[[/folder]]

%%* CelebritySurvivor
* DevouredByTheHorde: Is dog piled and devoured by a group of zombies in the finale.

* ItsAllMyFault: [[spoiler:Angel getting bitten.]]
* {{Jerkass}}: He's smug, cocky and mockingly asks Kelly if she's a 'mong' when she breaks into the house.
%%* OopNorth
* SatelliteCharacter: Within Big Brother, he was apparently considered one of these to Veronica.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Veronica]]
->'''Played By:''' Beth Cordingly

* AndThenJohnWasAZombie: She's seen eating the remains of Patrick along with Marky.
* AntiHero: Even more ruthless than Kelly after a certain point.
* DevouredByTheHorde: Is dog piled and devoured by a group of zombies in the finale.
* HiddenDepths: At first she seems like the stereotypical superficial and thoughtless reality-TV type, being more concerned that she might not be on tele anymore than anything else upon learning of the ZombieApocalypse, but once the reality of the situation sinks in she proves to be level-headed and pragmatic (if somewhat ruthless).
%%* CelebritySurvivor
* MsFanservice: This was her image on Big Brother. It's present in the story itself to some extent, but it's not really played up for the audience.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Pippa]]
->'''Played By:''' Kathleen [=McDermott=]

* AndThenJohnWasAZombie: Dies offscreen and turns in the finale.
* CatchPhrase: "I don't like it!". Davina even quotes her on it during her eviction.
%%* CelebritySurvivor
* DumbBlonde: Technically a redhead, but Patrick isn't exaggerating when he talks about how stupid she is.
* TheDitz: Both on the show and away from the cameras, Pippa is presented as the least intelligent of all the housemates.
* HystericalWoman: Out of all the housemates, she comes to terms the least with what is happening around her, spending a lot of the time post-outbreak screaming or crying.
* KilledOffScreen: She is killed and turned off screen in the finale.
* OffingTheOffspring: A [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5ycALKwiHA&t=11m42s deleted scene]] shows that she was killed by her zombified mother.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Joplin]]
->'''Played By:''' Creator/KevinEldon

* AndThenJohnWasAZombie: Turns after being devoured by the horde in the finale.
%%* CelebritySurvivor
* DeadpanSnarker: Although what he says falls flat on cleverness.
* DevouredByTheHorde: Suffers this fate after opening the gates in the finale.
* DirtyCoward: When Veronica is attacked [[spoiler:by a zombified Angel]], she screams at him for help. He responds by closing and locking the door between them.
* DirtyOldMan: He's caught trying to spy on Veronica while she's showering.
* FanNickname: In-universe (although it's more of a Hater Nickname), it's Gollum.
* {{Hypocrite}}: He claims to hate reality TV but that still didn't stop him from going on the show (although he claims to be trying to change the system from within).
%%* {{Jerkass}}
* KnowNothingKnowItAll: Everything that comes out of his mouth is bullshit, really.
* TheScrappy: In-Universe, pretty much everyone hates him, with many a sign found in the crowd making fun of him and his housemates insulting him behind his back.
* SmallNameBigEgo: Believes himself to be intelligent, witty and high-brow. In reality he is creepy, pretentious, cowardly and weak-willed. As a result, he is disliked by everyone inside the house and out.
* UnrequitedLove: He appears to have a crush on Veronica. It's very much one-sided.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Discussion is up if he was unwitting or not.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Grayson]]
->'''Played By:''' Raj Ghatak

* AdaptationalSexuality: Madonna, his counterpart on ''Reality Z'', is a UsefulNotes/{{trans|gender}} woman rather than CampGay.
* AndThenJohnWasAZombie: He's bitten in the neck by Angel after she reanimates and he fails to stab her. He then dies of blood loss and proceeds to turn within a few seconds.
* CampGay: He's introduced to viewers prancing around in women's underwear and speaking with a lisp. It's clear that he was cast on ''Big Brother'' to play this role for the amusement of the viewers.
%%* DeadpanSnarker
* HiddenDepths: He may be a campy, flamboyantly gay man who works in a stereotypically female profession, but said profession is nursing, which means that he's the only one among the cast with any medical training. When tasked with keeping Angel alive (both for its own sake, and to prevent her from turning), he knows what forms of medicine the others need to look for in the nearby pharmacy. [[spoiler:Unfortunately, it ends up being useless, as not only does Angel die and turn while they are away, but Grayson unties her shortly beforehand (at her request), which gets him bitten.]]
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Angel]]
->'''Played By:''' Chizzy Akudolu

* BoomHeadshot: On the receiving end of this by Kelly.
* BlackDudeDiesFirst: Out of the main cast, she's the first to get bitten and zombified.
* ZombieInfectee: She's bitten in the first episode, and slowly begins to die. Kelly tries to kill her before she turns, but Gray wouldn't let her, causing his death too.

->'''Played By:''' Davina [=McCall=]
