00:02:12I.
00:02:15Oh oh oh.
00:02:18It's time to turn up the heat.
00:02:28This is Love Island 2025.
00:02:48Random aerial shots of the sea, it can only mean one thing.
00:02:55Either Sir David Attenborough has been strapping cameras to seagulls again, or Love Island is back.
00:03:05Yes, the nation's favourite villa has been opened up, hosed down, and it's ready for action.
00:03:12The pool is inviting, the fire pit is primed, and the hideaway is still not remote.
00:03:18This year, there's loads of extra goodies in there, and after spotting the eight double beds,
00:03:2412 sound loungers, and two giant outdoor beds,
00:03:28the producers realise what the villa really needs is another place to lie down.
00:03:33So say hello to the hammock.
00:03:36Hang on, is that not a trampoline?
00:03:39Let's just call it a hampoline.
00:03:42Once again, our islanders will be wearing a selection of pre-loved clothing,
00:03:45pre-light clothing, and pre-dear God, I was drunk when I bought that clothing.
00:03:51Right, strap yourselves in, everybody, because at last the wait is over,
00:03:56and the time has come to say hello to the cast of 2025.
00:04:00Yes, they're young, they're single, and they can put their arms in the air like they just don't care.
00:04:06This is Shakira and Meg.
00:04:09Hi, darling.
00:04:10How are you?
00:04:12Oh, my God.
00:04:13Well, look at you.
00:04:14Ready?
00:04:14I'm so ready.
00:04:15What's your name?
00:04:16Megan.
00:04:16What's your name?
00:04:17I'm Shakira.
00:04:17Shakira.
00:04:18Shakira.
00:04:19Shakira.
00:04:20The hips don't lie.
00:04:21Oh, my God.
00:04:30Stop.
00:04:31Stop.
00:04:33Oh, my goodness.
00:04:34Meg, we're actually here.
00:04:37Look at the pool.
00:04:38This is insane.
00:04:39Oh, look at the kitchen.
00:04:40Oh, my God.
00:04:42Eat, sleep, crack on repeat.
00:04:43Oh, look at this.
00:04:45Hey, hey, up.
00:04:46Hey, up.
00:04:47Let's pop that bottle.
00:04:48Hey, up, talk.
00:04:49Let's pop that bottle.
00:04:50I'll let you do the honours.
00:04:51You know what?
00:04:52This isn't on my CV, but I'll do my best.
00:04:56Yay!
00:05:00I'm Megan.
00:05:01I'm 25, and I'm a payroll specialist from South Africa.
00:05:05No one in my office is fit.
00:05:07No one in my area.
00:05:08No one in the gym.
00:05:10Why do you think I'm here?
00:05:13I have been single now for four and a half years.
00:05:17A bit too long.
00:05:19I don't have a dating profile.
00:05:21I don't date.
00:05:22I don't even know when my last kiss was.
00:05:24I don't know.
00:05:27My type is a naughty boy.
00:05:29I go for all of the red flags.
00:05:31Just the cheekiness of him, the attitude, but it's the evil eyes.
00:05:34When you look at me in a certain way, probably what's going to get me.
00:05:38Why just let me show you.
00:05:39I always attract wrong ones, but then I give them my heart because I'm such a softie.
00:05:44I am going into Love Island to get a boyfriend.
00:05:49It's not much to ask for.
00:05:51I just want someone to treat me right and get away from the bad boys.
00:05:54So what do you do then?
00:06:00What do you think I do?
00:06:01Let's have that.
00:06:02I don't know.
00:06:02You're too glamorous to do a nine to five.
00:06:04Really?
00:06:05Yeah.
00:06:05Okay.
00:06:06What do I do then?
00:06:06It's something interesting.
00:06:07Go on.
00:06:08I'll never guess.
00:06:08So I do payroll.
00:06:10I'm a payroll specialist.
00:06:11She's a corporate girlie.
00:06:13What do you do?
00:06:16I do sales and marketing.
00:06:18Do you?
00:06:18Oh, of course.
00:06:19You've got the chat.
00:06:20I do dress up as a princess on a weekend.
00:06:22Yeah.
00:06:23Same.
00:06:23No, no, no, no.
00:06:24You keep it.
00:06:25No, I'm an actual princess.
00:06:28What?
00:06:28I do kids' parties.
00:06:31You're an entertainer?
00:06:33Yeah.
00:06:34Right.
00:06:40I'm so excited.
00:06:42Hi, I'm Shakira.
00:06:44I'm 22 years old and I'm a marketing engineer from Burnley.
00:06:48You know what?
00:06:49I've been a bit of a dating connoisseur.
00:06:51I'm on the apps.
00:06:52I'm on the town.
00:06:53I'm on the prowl.
00:06:54I feel like if you don't kiss a boy in a night out, it's a bit of a waste.
00:06:58I like everything with a pulse, basically.
00:07:01Big arms, good teeth, but they've got to have the chat.
00:07:06Girls are definitely intimidated by me.
00:07:08I get the looks up and down, a bit of the stink eye.
00:07:11Cling on to your man, honey, because I'll take him.
00:07:14Whoopsie.
00:07:17By 25, I need to be engaged.
00:07:1928, I want to be married.
00:07:2030 popping out kids.
00:07:21Like, we've not got time.
00:07:23We've got to be getting on with it.
00:07:25I need Love Island to find me my Prince Charming.
00:07:30She's come in to get you.
00:07:31Do you have someone for me?
00:07:35I want a man, though.
00:07:36I've had enough now.
00:07:37You've had enough of boys.
00:07:38You want a man?
00:07:39I want a real man.
00:07:40I ain't meant to that.
00:07:41Give me a man.
00:07:42Man.
00:07:43Give me a man.
00:07:44M-A-N for Meg.
00:07:48Yeah, that's a good one.
00:07:51When you ask like that, how can we refuse?
00:07:54Well, quite easily.
00:07:55So let's send in some more ladies.
00:07:57I'm Sophie.
00:07:58I'm Alima.
00:07:59Lovely name.
00:08:00I'm gorgeous.
00:08:0210 out of 10.
00:08:03Say hello to Alima and Sophie.
00:08:05Oh, my God.
00:08:15Oh, my goodness.
00:08:16This is beautiful.

00:08:31Hello.
00:08:31Hello.
00:08:32Hello.

00:08:36Oh my God.
00:08:37You are gorgeous.
00:08:39Right, let's go get you a drink.
00:08:41Come on.
00:08:42What's your name?
00:08:43Sophie, nice to meet you.
00:08:44Sophie, nice to meet you.
00:08:45What's your name?
00:08:46I'm Shakira.
00:08:47Their hips ain't lying, girl.
00:08:48Their hips don't lie.
00:08:49Their hips don't lie.
00:08:50Shakira, she's making me do the deezing.
00:08:53Oh, Shakira.
00:08:54Shakira, love the name.
00:08:56What's your name, darling?
00:08:57What's your name?
00:08:58My name's Aleema.
00:08:59Aleema.
00:09:00Nice to meet you.
00:09:01I'm Aleema.
00:09:02I am 23 years old and I am a wealth management client services executive from Glasgow.
00:09:08I have been single since I can remember.
00:09:1223 years.
00:09:13I am a hopeless romantic, you know, that fairytale type of love face.
00:09:19You know when you just look at a guy and they've got like that Prince Charming, like,
00:09:22Disney Prince look to them?
00:09:24Yeah.
00:09:25I can get that ick quite easily.
00:09:27If I'm not feeling you, I won't flirt, but if I am, yeah.
00:09:30I can get quite flirty.
00:09:31I'm a 10 out of 10, of course.
00:09:33I think I've got a really nice smile.
00:09:35And then...
00:09:36I do need to get the vibe that you've got money, you can treat me, you know.
00:09:42Just give me the Prince's treatment that I deserve.
00:09:44100%, I want to see if my Prince Charming is out there.
00:09:47The qualities that I look for in a man are so different now to when I was like, yeah, now
00:09:56I'm like, is he going to be a good dad?
00:09:59Is he the...
00:10:00Like, if he's paternal, I'm like, what a baby!
00:10:02I'm Sophie, I'm 29, I'm a motivational speaker and author and I'm from Manchester.
00:10:11She's an author, you know.
00:10:13She's got brains.
00:10:15For dating life, I say it's more just life.
00:10:18The streets are cold, especially up north.
00:10:21So please don't make me wave.
00:10:24I've only had one boyfriend.
00:10:26You'd think as a motivational speaker I'd be picking the securely attached men.
00:10:29But no, I'm picking the ones that are making me cry, ruining my life, big red flag.
00:10:34Now, if the guy's not for me, then it's next.
00:10:37It has to be the right person.
00:10:40Anyone can look amazing, but if you're not amazing in your energy, the aura points are going down.
00:10:47Show me where you're at, and I'll keep on going.
00:10:51My mum, she goes, Prince Charming is not going to turn up at your house.
00:10:55So I just swapped my house for the villa.
00:10:57So hopefully he's going to be in there.
00:10:59I'm looking for husband.
00:11:01Nope, that's dumb.
00:11:08What do you reckon the boys are going to look like?
00:11:11Feet!
00:11:12No, they better be.
00:11:13They're going to throw them in hard, fast!
00:11:15Hurry up!
00:11:16Where are they?
00:11:17We want the boys!
00:11:18We want the boys!
00:11:19Hurry up!
00:11:20There's a drought!
00:11:25Patience everyone, there's two more ladies on the way.
00:11:28Quick question, what country just has a love heart as it's number playing?
00:11:32My gut says Italy.
00:11:34Anyway, welcome Meghan and Helena.
00:11:37We're all right!
00:11:38We're all right!
00:11:39We're all right!
00:11:40We're all right, we're all right!
00:11:41We're all right!
00:11:42I'm happy!
00:11:43I like it!
00:11:44Nice to meet you!
00:11:45Lovely to meet you, darling!
00:11:46Oh, I can hear the giggles.
00:11:58The girlies are here.
00:12:01Oh, my God.
00:12:02Oh, my God.
00:12:03Oh, my God.
00:12:04Oh, my God.
00:12:05Oh, my God.
00:12:06Hello.
00:12:07Hi, girls.
00:12:09Hi.
00:12:10Hi.
00:12:11I love you to meet you.
00:12:13Oh, my God.
00:12:16Oh, my God.
00:12:17Everybody looks really fit.
00:12:19I'm Megan.
00:12:20Nice to meet you.
00:12:21I'm Megan.
00:12:22She's Megan.
00:12:23Oh, my God.
00:12:24She's Megan.
00:12:25Oh, God.
00:12:26It's going to get bloody confusing, isn't it?
00:12:27I know.
00:12:28We've got the same name.
00:12:34I'm Megan.
00:12:35I'm 24, and I'm an energy broker from Dublin.
00:12:38I've been single by two and a half years now.
00:12:42It's rough out here.
00:12:43Hell and horror.
00:12:44I'm sick of dating apps.
00:12:45Dead chat.
00:12:46I can't do it anymore.
00:12:47Hence why I'm here.
00:12:48I had a man ask me, did I want to go on a walk for a date?
00:12:51I was like, I'm not a dog, but thank you for the offer.
00:12:54If I had to pick, like, a certain look, I quite like a man that looks a bit dead.
00:13:00You know what I mean?
00:13:01Like, Tim Burton kind of style.
00:13:02I'm also partial to a ginger.
00:13:03I don't know if that's the Irish in me.
00:13:05I know it shouldn't be the be all and end all in a relationship, but sex is important.
00:13:10So if they are shit in bed, I feel like that would just come back in my face.
00:13:14I'm so competitive.
00:13:17Say if I want a man in the villa and I see another girl wanting to be filming that.
00:13:21Like, if you want to miss out on this, that's fine.
00:13:23That's your own problem.
00:13:24To be born again, baby.
00:13:25To be born again.
00:13:26I am looking to find the guy in my dreams in that villa.
00:13:29He has to be there because he's nowhere else, apparently.
00:13:31To be born again, baby.
00:13:32To be born again.
00:13:33To be born again, baby.
00:13:34To be born again.
00:13:36Are you a personality girl?
00:13:37I'm...
00:13:38Yeah, I am.
00:13:39Now I am.
00:13:40I am a big personality girl.
00:13:41Now I am.
00:13:42I love a four out of ten.
00:13:43That's funny.
00:13:44You, like, medium ugly boy.
00:13:45Yes.
00:13:46Yes, I love a medium ugly boy.
00:13:48I'm staying here, staying here.
00:13:50I'm staying here.
00:13:51I'm 29.
00:13:52I'm an air hostess and I'm from Devon.
00:13:54I do love my job.
00:13:55You could have, like, a different man in every different country if you wanted.
00:14:01I've been single my whole bloody life.
00:14:03No one wants me.
00:14:05I just don't take anything seriously.
00:14:07I think that's the problem.
00:14:09On a night out, I'm pretty feral.
00:14:12I think I've kissed six on one night before.
00:14:15It's not a night out unless you've had a disco kit.
00:14:17My type is just something that can make me laugh, but apparently I love a short king because
00:14:23everybody that I go for is about five foot nothing.
00:14:25The majority of the time, I'd say I get the people that I like.
00:14:28They just don't hang around that long.
00:14:30I think the last two people I was seeing, one of them was 42 and the other one was 23.
00:14:35So I could go for them or their death.
00:14:41I'm at that point now.
00:14:42I'm trying to get into my soft girl era.
00:14:44I cannot wait to hopefully meet a man that actually wants to tie me down.
00:14:48I think I've waited a long enough time.
00:14:50I'm in your heart, I'm in your heart, I'm in your heart, I'm in your heart, I'm in your heart.
00:14:54Your biggest ick, one ick.
00:14:56Oh.
00:14:57Someone that takes themselves, like, too seriously.
00:14:59Like, you know, like, that takes, like, selfies and stuff.
00:15:01Oh, no, no, no.
00:15:02Oh, my God.
00:15:03Yeah.
00:15:04What's yours?
00:15:05Just being rude to people, like waiters and stuff when you're in a restaurant.
00:15:07That's a massive ick.
00:15:08Yeah, that's a good one, yeah.
00:15:10See, for me, I don't like a guy who's got, like, a lot of Instagram highlights.
00:15:14What about if he's got you on there?
00:15:15Is that acceptable?
00:15:16If it's just every single highlight, it's me, yeah.
00:15:18Yeah, but if it's, like, different things, I'm like...
00:15:20So you like to be shown off?
00:15:21Exactly, yeah.
00:15:22But mine's flip-flops.
00:15:23If a man's walking to you and he's damn sexy and all you got is flip-flop with his toe,
00:15:28like...
00:15:29I like a flip-flop!
00:15:31You can have him, babe.
00:15:32Save him for later.
00:15:33You can have him.
00:15:34Sliders?
00:15:35Sliders is fine.
00:15:36Sliders is fine.
00:15:46Six girls have made their entrance, and because they refuse to wear the flowy name tags I crocheted for them,
00:15:52I have to remind you who's who.
00:15:54There's Meg, Sophie, Helena, Aleema, Megan, and Shakira.
00:16:03We've got six incredible girls!
00:16:09We've got a stunning luxury villa!
00:16:11We've even got a hampoline, but there's just one thing missing,
00:16:15cause you know I'd be a liar if I said we didn't need a Maya!
00:16:21She's a Batman pajama.
00:16:25Just as fine as she can be.
00:16:28Hey!
00:16:29She's a bad man, Gemma, just as proud as she can be.
00:16:38Hello, darling!
00:16:41Let's go to Love Island!
00:16:44Yay!
00:16:46Oh, my God!
00:16:49So beautiful!
00:16:50Hello, nice to meet you.
00:16:52You look gorgeous.
00:16:54Oh, my goodness.
00:16:55Hi!
00:16:56I feel like I saw Belle.
00:16:57No!
00:16:58Oh, my gosh!
00:16:59You guys look amazing!
00:17:00Beautiful woman!
00:17:01You look amazing!
00:17:02Not all the hugs.
00:17:03I'm like, sweat!
00:17:04Honey, let's go to the fire.
00:17:05You look beautiful.
00:17:06So cute.
00:17:07How beautiful is this?
00:17:08You look amazing!
00:17:09Thank you!
00:17:10You just scared me then.
00:17:11I thought there was another girl.
00:17:12Did you?
00:17:13Not already.
00:17:14Right, have a seat.
00:17:15Okay.
00:17:16So, welcome to Love Island girl.
00:17:17Hi, thank you.
00:17:18So, how is everybody feeling?
00:17:19Exactly!
00:17:20Exactly!
00:17:21Oh, my gosh!
00:17:22Oh, my gosh!
00:17:23Oh, my gosh!
00:17:24Oh, my gosh!
00:17:25Oh, my gosh!
00:17:26Oh, my gosh!
00:17:27It is a bit surreal, isn't it, once you're in here?
00:17:31It is.
00:17:32I need to know your type, though.
00:17:33I feel like that's where everyone should start.
00:17:35So, should we start with you, Shakira?
00:17:37So, I want someone who's tall, muscly, nice smile, but for me, it's all about personality.
00:17:43Yeah.
00:17:44Okay.
00:17:45Witty.
00:17:46Charming.
00:17:47Funny.
00:17:48Witty.
00:17:49Charming.
00:17:50Funny.
00:17:51All at once.
00:17:52Okay.
00:17:53Not too much to ask for.
00:17:54No, I don't think so.
00:17:55And, Helena, what about you?
00:17:56Looks or personality?
00:17:57Personality always.
00:17:58Okay.
00:17:59What?
00:18:00Don't say that.
00:18:01You can have a pic of the bunch.
00:18:02Yeah.
00:18:03And you, Meg?
00:18:04I'm the total opposite to her.
00:18:05Okay.
00:18:06I'm, like, tan skin.
00:18:07He's got to be taller than me.
00:18:09Everyone, like, I go for has got the naughty eyes.
00:18:11It's just that look, and I'm like, oh, he's me.
00:18:13Okay.
00:18:14Like, it's like, when you know, you know.
00:18:16But, at the same time, they're always the boys that you don't want.
00:18:19Like, they've...
00:18:20Meg.
00:18:21We can't change it.
00:18:22No.
00:18:23Can't be getting in fair with them, because you might get digmatized.
00:18:25And you can't be digmatized.
00:18:26Come on.
00:18:27Have you been digmatized before, Sophie?
00:18:29I've only just come out of it.
00:18:31Oh, my God.
00:18:32How long is the digmatization?
00:18:33How long does that last?
00:18:34It could be the rest of your life, man.
00:18:35No!
00:18:36What do you like?
00:18:38I really want someone who's a gentleman.
00:18:40Okay.
00:18:41I'm a man child that I'm going to have to be questioning his loyalty, questioning his
00:18:45honesty.
00:18:46Someone who's got good, like, aura.
00:18:48Like, just oozes, like...
00:18:51Okay.
00:18:52Noted, Megan.
00:18:53What do you want?
00:18:54Do you want a rad?
00:18:55Do you want a...
00:18:56Digmatization?
00:18:57We've got a few words right around the place already.
00:18:59I'm not fussy.
00:19:00I'm easily trans, which is the problem.
00:19:02So, medium ugly boys.
00:19:03So, I'm here to step up my game.
00:19:05I feel I think it's time, because the medium ugly boys have not got it out for me recently.
00:19:09Well, that's the reason you're here, isn't it?
00:19:10Exactly.
00:19:11Okay.
00:19:12Aleema, what about you?
00:19:13What is your normal type?
00:19:14Who do you usually go for?
00:19:15Prince Charming, kind of vibes like Disney Prince, and then no facial hair either.
00:19:19Just like baby face, and then tall.
00:19:21Yeah.
00:19:22And what about job-wise?
00:19:23Do we care about what job they have?
00:19:25Do you know what?
00:19:26A quality for me is someone with drive.
00:19:28Yeah.
00:19:29I feel like you could be out of a job, but if you've got drive, then you'll always
00:19:32be doing something.
00:19:33Ambition.
00:19:34Ambition.
00:19:35So, what is a good occupation then to go for, then?
00:19:37What are you at?
00:19:38What would you say, green flag?
00:19:39Trader.
00:19:40Like a trader.
00:19:41Oh, yeah.
00:19:42A man in cargoes, a man in work.
00:19:43Oh, yeah.
00:19:44And what about like sporty people?
00:19:46I do like a footballer.
00:19:47You do?
00:19:48Yeah.
00:19:49I really don't like rugby boys.
00:19:50No, not the rugby boys.
00:19:51All right.
00:19:52Well, this year things are slightly different.
00:19:55Oh, no.
00:19:56You've obviously told me what your type on paper is.
00:19:59Shit.
00:20:00But does that match your ideal man in reality?
00:20:02I hope it does.
00:20:03Hopefully.
00:20:04Same.
00:20:05Come and join me by the pool.
00:20:06Oh!
00:20:19Girls, in front of you are six love hearts.
00:20:31And each boy has given me their dating profile, which is written on each of these hearts.
00:20:36So, shall we have a little look at what boys we've got on offer?
00:20:39Yeah.
00:20:40Yeah.
00:20:41We've got Ben, 23, taxi driver, six foot three, and his headline is, no, I'm not a catfish.
00:20:50What do we think about that?
00:20:52Six foot three, you say?
00:20:54Yeah.
00:20:55Brilliant.
00:20:56So, you're impressed by Ben so far?
00:20:58Yeah.
00:20:59Yeah.
00:21:00I'm not a fan of the taxi driver.
00:21:01Why not?
00:21:02It's giving me dad vibes, but we'll see what he looks like.
00:21:05I'm intrigued by the, no, I'm not a catfish.
00:21:08He must be very good looking.
00:21:10But is he a bit arrogant?
00:21:12These are the questions.
00:21:13Let's move on to Dejon.
00:21:1526, personal trainer, six foot one, and his headline is, I like to play hard and work
00:21:22harder.
00:21:23I love to play, so I work very hard.
00:21:26It's very poetic.
00:21:27Is it poetic?
00:21:28I don't know, it's giving me a bit icky.
00:21:30Okay.
00:21:31Meg, you like an older guy, he's 26.
00:21:33That's alright for me.
00:21:34Yeah.
00:21:35He sounds good in the making so far, so yeah.
00:21:37Personal trainers, are they green flags, red flags?
00:21:39I would say green flags, because it means they take care of themselves, and I think that's
00:21:42really important, you know?
00:21:43Yeah.
00:21:44If you're into fitness, you want a man who also is into fitness.
00:21:46But, he said he loves to play.
00:21:48Is that a red flag?
00:21:49That's what I'm thinking.
00:21:50He loves to play.
00:21:51I know, what does that mean?
00:21:52What context does it mean?
00:21:54Well, player, what do you mean?
00:21:56Let's go for Harry next.
00:21:58He's 30.
00:21:59Oh.
00:22:00Commodities trader, six foot two.
00:22:02And his headline is, I'm somewhere between a wild card and a husband.
00:22:06I know what I want, and I'm not afraid to get it.
00:22:09Hello, Harry.
00:22:10He's got some on.
00:22:11Has he got that four you were looking for?
00:22:13Oh.
00:22:14She made the noise.
00:22:15Do you like a man that goes after what he wants?
00:22:17Yeah.
00:22:18Yeah.
00:22:19He's got a one, yeah.
00:22:20Exactly.
00:22:21And makes you feel good.
00:22:22Exactly.
00:22:23Does anyone know what a commodities trader is?
00:22:24Yeah, what is a commodities trader?
00:22:26I feel like that's a bit of a nine to five.
00:22:28Yeah, like offers.
00:22:29Yeah.
00:22:30Yeah.
00:22:31You like nine to five?
00:22:32No.
00:22:33Huh?
00:22:34Not a fan of the, not a fan of the grafties?
00:22:35No, I like the grafty-grafties.
00:22:36I don't like the corporate boys, the finance bros.
00:22:39Oh, okay.
00:22:40You're not looking for a man in financing.
00:22:41No.
00:22:42That's off.
00:22:43Let's move on to Connor.
00:22:4425, pro rugby player.
00:22:47Ooh.
00:22:48Six foot one.
00:22:49His headline is, I've scored worldies on and off the pitch, but now I'm here to find the one.
00:22:55A seasoned data, potentially.
00:22:57Yeah.
00:22:58He's ready to settle, which is good.
00:22:59Yeah, that's quite nice he's saying that.
00:23:01Yeah.
00:23:02I think it comes across quite cocky.
00:23:04Helena, you said you don't like rugby boys.
00:23:05I don't like rugby boys.
00:23:06I don't.
00:23:07A rugby boy.
00:23:08You can tell someone's a rugby boy before you can speak to them.
00:23:10What is it that gives away?
00:23:11Just by their mannerisms and like, yeah.
00:23:13It's not for me.
00:23:15Is that a rugby boy mannerism?
00:23:17Yeah.
00:23:18Okay.
00:23:19Let's move on to Blue.
00:23:2026, project manager.
00:23:22Five foot eleven.
00:23:24I'm looking for my sexy senorita to sip margaritas.
00:23:28Is he Spanish?
00:23:29Who knows?
00:23:30I can speak Portuguese.
00:23:31You do?
00:23:32And Spanish as well.
00:23:33Love that, bilingual queen.
00:23:34And project manager.
00:23:35What do we think about that as a job role?
00:23:37Yeah.
00:23:38That could mean anything.
00:23:39Well, projects.
00:23:40He's going to be smart and I like that.
00:23:42Okay.
00:23:43He's got to be hard working for that.
00:23:44Exactly.
00:23:45Sounds ambitious.
00:23:46Sounds like he works in the city.
00:23:47Yeah.
00:23:48A bit of a manager.
00:23:49I'm a manager ladies.
00:23:50He's ambitious.
00:23:51Yeah, exactly.
00:23:52I like that.
00:23:53Yeah, he takes control potentially.
00:23:54He could organise the dates.
00:23:55Right.
00:23:56Exactly.
00:23:57Like a man in charge later.
00:23:58I think he sounds a bit cheeky.
00:23:59Yeah.
00:24:00I quite like it.
00:24:01Finally, let's move on to Tommy.
00:24:0322, landscape gardener.
00:24:06Six foot one.
00:24:07And his headline is.
00:24:08Half Italian.
00:24:09Full of fun.
00:24:10Let's find out if you're the one.
00:24:13Great Shakespeare.
00:24:15How many times did he use that line?
00:24:17Because it's coming off smooth.
00:24:18Yeah.
00:24:19Oh my God.
00:24:20Yeah.
00:24:21It's like too smooth.
00:24:22I've got Italian heritage as well.
00:24:23So I'm like, is this my match?
00:24:28All right.
00:24:29It's now time to pick the boy that you most like the sound of based on paper alone.
00:24:35Only one girl can stand next to one boy.
00:24:38So you're going to have to battle it out for the right guy for you.
00:24:41Oh my God.
00:24:42And remember, this is the first boy you're going to be coupled up with.
00:24:47So make your choice carefully.
00:24:49All right.
00:24:50Yeah.
00:24:51In three, two, one.
00:24:53Ay, ay, ay.
00:24:54Go get your man.
00:24:58Some of you definitely went really quick.
00:24:59Well, hang on.
00:25:00Is this wrong?
00:25:01So you all went for different ones.
00:25:02Do you feel I nearly went for Ben, but Shakira beat me.
00:25:06Eleanor, you're with Connor.
00:25:07I thought you didn't like rugby players.
00:25:09I know.
00:25:10She went for exactly what she didn't want.
00:25:11Yeah, but no one else wants to swap.
00:25:13Does anyone want to swap?
00:25:14I don't want a 22 year old.
00:25:15He's a bit too young.
00:25:16I'll keep them.
00:25:22Access denied.
00:25:23You keep hurry.
00:25:24It's fine.
00:25:25We can swap.
00:25:26We can swap later on maybe.
00:25:27I'll let you know.
00:25:28We'll touch base.
00:25:29And we'll have a debrief.
00:25:30And I'll let you know.
00:25:31Maybe hand over tonight.
00:25:32We'll play wife swap later.
00:25:33Yeah.
00:25:34Maybe hand over tonight.
00:25:35It's very diplomatic, girls.
00:25:36I'll take it.
00:25:37We'll give it a go.
00:25:39All right.
00:25:40We've done it.
00:25:41It's got instinct.
00:25:42Let's go with it.
00:25:43Okay, Shakira.
00:25:44You picked Ben.
00:25:45Are you ready to meet him?
00:25:46Yeah.
00:25:47Yeah.
00:25:52Hello.
00:25:53Hello, Ben.
00:25:54You've got a round of applause.
00:25:55Look at that.
00:25:56What's going on?
00:25:57Yay.
00:25:58Welcome to the villa.
00:25:59Thank you very much.
00:26:00How are you doing?
00:26:01Good, thank you.
00:26:02Good.
00:26:03It's all right to look, are they?
00:26:04It's all right.
00:26:05She's making me blush now.
00:26:06She is.
00:26:09Positive yes.
00:26:10Let's go.
00:26:11I'm Ben.
00:26:12I'm 23.
00:26:13I'm a taxi driver and I'm from Gloucester.
00:26:14I always pick up girls that are fit.
00:26:16I try and keep it all professional.
00:26:18But they get in.
00:26:19The amount of times I've had a look, like,
00:26:21are you sure you're my taxi?
00:26:22I was like, I am your taxi.
00:26:24Cause I live for this.
00:26:25Probably rate myself a 9.37425.
00:26:29Exactly.
00:26:34My love life is a shambles at the minute.
00:26:36Social media's ruined everything, man.
00:26:38I need to go organically where there's no filter,
00:26:40no faintness, me and you in there, face to face.
00:26:42Let's get to know each other.
00:26:43I'm a nuisance on and out.
00:26:46I'm cheeky and I'm flirty, but he said being a flirt is a bad thing.
00:26:50Cause I live for this.
00:26:51I actually like being in a relationship.
00:26:53Love what's going on.
00:26:54Love's a good thing.
00:26:55It's good to have a sensitive side.
00:26:56Hey, there's nothing wrong with being the little spew.
00:26:58Let's just say that.
00:26:59I need to find a genuine connection.
00:27:02She's wifey, she's bad, she's sexy.
00:27:04I need my passenger princess.
00:27:06Cause that seat at the minute.
00:27:07That seat's free.
00:27:11As you know, you gave us your dating profile.
00:27:14All the girls picked who they like the sound of on paper.
00:27:17Yes.
00:27:18And Shakira picked you.
00:27:19How you doing Shakira?
00:27:20Hello.
00:27:21You alright?
00:27:22Happy.
00:27:23Happy?
00:27:24Yeah.
00:27:25All smiles?
00:27:26Yeah, all good.
00:27:27You could have acted all nonchalant.
00:27:29No.
00:27:30I'm just trying to play it cool.
00:27:33Okay, Ben.
00:27:34Yeah.
00:27:35I'll go to meet Shakira.
00:27:36Right.
00:27:37Hello.
00:27:38Yeah, good.
00:27:39Yeah, good.
00:27:43You smell good.
00:27:45We have our first Love Island couple, everyone.
00:27:47Woo!
00:27:48Shakira and Ben.
00:27:57I'm just dreaming.
00:28:04Children's entertainer Shakira's coupled up with Ben.
00:28:08Or his kids across Burnley are currently shouting,
00:28:11Mum!
00:28:12Princess Sparkle's on the telly and her Prince Charmin's got his kit off!
00:28:17Right, let's see how the rest of them are getting along.
00:28:19Alright, next up, Meg.
00:28:20Oh, God.
00:28:21Are you ready to meet Dajon?
00:28:22No.
00:28:23No?
00:28:24No.
00:28:25Well, he's coming out anyway.
00:28:26I'm scared.
00:28:27Deep breaths now.
00:28:28Literally.
00:28:33Woo!
00:28:34Woo!
00:28:37Hey, Dajon, come and join me.
00:28:39Hello, hello, hello.
00:28:40Welcome.
00:28:41Hello, girls.
00:28:42Hi.
00:28:43How are you doing?
00:28:44Good, thank you.
00:28:45Good, thank you.
00:28:46How are you?
00:28:47Fantastic.
00:28:48Have a look at this in front of you.
00:28:49Wow.
00:28:52My name is Dajon.
00:28:53I'm 26 years old.
00:28:54I'm a personal trainer and I'm from London.
00:28:56I know you see me coming.
00:28:58I would say mostly my clients are actually female.
00:29:00The older the client is, the more bold that they are.
00:29:03Some of them literally said to me, I would love to see you naked.
00:29:05I've made a few wishes come true.
00:29:07I'm definitely competitive.
00:29:08If I want you, then there's no competition.
00:29:09But I've been rejected before.
00:29:10It's not often.
00:29:11I can't remember when it was, but I'm just saying it just to be humble.
00:29:12I don't remember the last time I was rejected.
00:29:13Me single, me as a boyfriend, it's two different Dajon's.
00:29:14In a relationship, I'm definitely romantic.
00:29:15Me out of a relationship, it could be three to five business days before you hear back to me.
00:29:20That's what's stopping me from getting in a relationship.
00:29:35I've got a wandering eye, so on Monday I could like a curvy girl, on Tuesday I could like a more athletic type.
00:29:41My heart is too big.
00:29:42I've got so much love to give.
00:29:47I definitely think I can fall in love in the villa.
00:29:49And if I do love you and you are the one for me, then there's nobody else.
00:29:52Like I said, I'm working on that wandering eye, so I think I could be all right.
00:29:55Meg has chosen you based on your dating profile alone.
00:30:00Yeah.
00:30:01What do we think of Meg?
00:30:02Yeah, I think she's beautiful.
00:30:04I'm happy.
00:30:05And Meg, what do you think of him?
00:30:06Yeah, he's not bad to look at at all.
00:30:08He ain't got flip-flops on, which is good.
00:30:11So if he had flip-flops, that would have been an absolute no?
00:30:14Yeah, maybe.
00:30:15Okay.
00:30:16Was there anything on the dating profile that you were like, meh?
00:30:18Oh, I love to play.
00:30:20Do you want to explain that?
00:30:21Love to play, work hard, play harder?
00:30:22What kind of play are we talking?
00:30:23I love to play.
00:30:24I like to, you know, have fun.
00:30:25I like to party.
00:30:26So if I was out until 4am, 3am in the morning, I've got work in the morning, I'll make sure
00:30:30I'm there.
00:30:31Okay, work-life balance?
00:30:32Yeah, work-life balance.
00:30:33I think it's good to have balance in life.
00:30:34Okay.
00:30:35Meg, what do you think of that?
00:30:36I don't know what he's doing out partying to that time.
00:30:39That's quite early, no?
00:30:41Depends who you're asking.
00:30:42Depends who you're asking.
00:30:43Is he your type now you've seen him?
00:30:4650-50, yeah.
00:30:48Okay, what does that mean?
00:30:50I don't know.
00:30:51She's cracking a whip.
00:30:53Yeah, it's eyes.
00:30:54I can't really see that far away.
00:30:56Oh, yeah, Meg's an eyes girl.
00:30:57She can't see your eyes properly from here, so maybe you two need to get a bit closer.
00:31:00So you're 50-50 on my eyes?
00:31:01Yeah, I can't see your eyes.
00:31:02See?
00:31:03Well, Meg, do you want to look deeper into those eyes?
00:31:05Yeah.
00:31:06Off you go.
00:31:07Bring him over.
00:31:08Lovely to meet you.
00:31:10Andrew.
00:31:11What do you reckon now you're up close?
00:31:13Yeah, he's got nice eyes.
00:31:14Aw.
00:31:15Okay, they're approved.
00:31:16Yeah, they're approved.
00:31:17So it's a 50-50, now what is it?
00:31:18Oh, I don't know you yet.
00:31:19I don't know what you're like.
00:31:20She's keeping her cards close to her chest.
00:31:21Yeah, I'm not saying anything.
00:31:22And we have our second Love Island couple, Meg and Dejean.
00:31:27Sophie, you are next.
00:31:28It's time to meet Harry.
00:31:29Hello, hello.
00:31:30Welcome to the villa.
00:31:31Thank you, Maya.
00:31:32How are we doing?
00:31:33Come on over.
00:31:34I'm here.
00:31:35I'm ready.
00:31:36I'm Harry.
00:31:37I'm 30 years old.
00:31:38I'm a commodities trader and semi-pro footballer from Guildford.
00:31:41I'm definitely enjoying single life at the moment.
00:31:44I was in a relationship for a while.
00:31:45That ended a year ago and I've been having it off ever since.
00:31:50I don't do dating apps.
00:31:54I don't do dating apps.
00:31:55So, you know, I don't do dating apps.
00:31:56I'm in the box.
00:31:57Why?
00:31:58So, do you do it?
00:31:59No?
00:32:00Yeah, I'm good.
00:32:01You great.
00:32:02You know, come on over.
00:32:03Hello, my friend.
00:32:04Hey, my friend, are you here?
00:32:05Are you here?
00:32:06And I'm here?
00:32:07I'm ready.
00:32:08I'm here.
00:32:09I don't do dating apps. I like to go up to girls in person, in the gym, and just say,
00:32:14how you doing? I'm Harry. It works. It works. You might not believe it works, but it does.
00:32:20I think my success rate is pretty good. I've had a football team on the roster before,
00:32:24we're talking 11 aside. I don't know if I have something to gloat about.
00:32:30I'm a hopeless romantic. I'll give you everything I have.
00:32:33Pestles on the bed, beach dinners. It can be any of the above. All of them.
00:32:39I'm 30 years old. I've messed around enough. I'm dating with a purpose to find someone to build a life with.
00:32:48In front of you, six gorgeous girls. So Sophie's gone for you, Harry.
00:32:53Perfect. I'm delighted with that. I'm liking, I like the red. I like a lady in red for sure.
00:32:58Oh, okay. Nicely done. Is this this room that you were looking for, Sophie?
00:33:03I'm bringing the spice already. Do you know what I mean?
00:33:05Yeah. Sophie was man-marking that heart as well. She didn't want anyone close to her.
00:33:11Based on his profile, did you like everything you saw?
00:33:14Our first glance, yeah. And then as I get to know you, probably, yeah.
00:33:18And just based on appearance now, are you liking what you see?
00:33:21I'm happy. Yeah.
00:33:23All right. Now, Helena, you were umming and ahhing about Harry's love heart.
00:33:26Do you wish you would have traded now?
00:33:29Who knows? I know. Who knows?
00:33:31I would give him a solid contender. Definitely.
00:33:35Okay, Harry, off you go and meet Sophie.
00:33:41Now we have our third Love Island couple, Sophie and Harry.
00:33:48Three more left. I got nervous.
00:33:50I know. Helena, are you ready to meet your rugby boy?
00:33:52Yes, ready.
00:33:53Let's bring out Connor.
00:33:58Connor, welcome to the villa.
00:33:59Hello. Hello. How are we getting on?
00:34:01Hello.
00:34:02Is he over?
00:34:03Come on over.
00:34:04Hello, guys.
00:34:05How are you?
00:34:06How are you?
00:34:06I'm very good. How are you?
00:34:07Good, good.
00:34:08Good. Nice to see you.
00:34:09Nice to see you too.
00:34:10So as you can see, Helena has gone for you.
00:34:13Yeah.
00:34:14Hi, I'm Connor. I'm 25. I'm a pro rugby player and I'm from Limerick.
00:34:23I'm part of the Irish Rugby Sevens team.
00:34:25Obviously training a lot, so it keeps me in shape.
00:34:27Yeah, I get a bit of attention when I'm out as well, you know.
00:34:33Me and my mum were obviously really close.
00:34:34When I was younger, she was sort of saying like, you know,
00:34:37there's no need to get in a relationship because you'll miss out on things.
00:34:39And I'm happy she did do that because I enjoyed myself. I enjoyed my single life.
00:34:45I've actually been told that I normally go for girls who are quite similar to my mother and
00:34:49personality-wise.
00:34:52People's first impressions of me are I'm a bit arrogant, a bit cocky and a bit of a ladies man.
00:34:58And they're not wrong, but it's not a bad thing, is it? Like, my type is definitely someone who's
00:35:03ambitious, a go-getter and a bit of crack as well, because I can't be all the crack.
00:35:09What are we thinking about Helena?
00:35:15Yeah, obviously I'm surprised because that's not my best line.
00:35:19How would you explain that? So you had loads of good-looking girls in the past?
00:35:23Yeah, yeah, we could say that. I don't want to be too cocky, but yeah.
00:35:27And good tries then on the pitch.
00:35:28Okay, attempts and secures. Fine.
00:35:32And Helena, you were a bit worried because you said you didn't really like a rugby player.
00:35:35I don't know.
00:35:36Now that you've seen Connor, has your opinion changed a bit?
00:35:40Yeah.
00:35:40Are you willing to give him a chance?
00:35:41Yeah, definitely, no, it's changed. I like the cockiness and the confidentness of your little
00:35:46quote, but yeah, the struggle bit, I'm not too sure.
00:35:51And what about an Irish accent?
00:35:52Love an Irish accent.
00:35:53Yeah.
00:35:53Okay, well, that's good news.
00:35:54Yeah, one big tick, a couple of exes.
00:35:57Yeah.
00:35:57We'll see if we can move past them.
00:35:58Yeah, 100%.
00:35:59Okay, Connor, go and meet Helena.
00:36:06We have got our fourth Love Island couple, Helena and Connor.
00:36:10Okay, Alima, how are you feeling?
00:36:15Do you know what? I like the dating profile so far, so I just need to wait and see if we vibe.
00:36:20Have you got an image in your head of what it might look like?
00:36:22Yeah, I've got something pictured, so I just need to wait and find out.
00:36:24Oh my gosh.
00:36:25Yeah.
00:36:25Okay.
00:36:26Fingers crossed.
00:36:27Fingers crossed he matches up to your expectations.
00:36:29Exactly.
00:36:30Let's get Blue out.
00:36:33Here he comes.
00:36:36Welcome, Blue.
00:36:38What's happening, Maya? You all right?
00:36:39What's happening?
00:36:40What's happening, girls?
00:36:41Blue name, blue shorts, blue trainers.
00:36:44Blue by name, blue by nature.
00:36:45Exactly.
00:36:46Love that for you.
00:36:50I'm Blue, I'm 26, and I'm a construction project manager.
00:36:53I was born in London, but I was raised in Marbella, Spain.
00:36:56So the sun, the pool, the drama.
00:36:58I'm basically built for this, right?
00:37:01Out of 10, I would give myself a 9.5.
00:37:03For it to give a 10, I'd have to have my trousers off.
00:37:08Quite open to talking about sex.
00:37:10Love sex.
00:37:11My mum owns a sex shop in Marbella.
00:37:13I don't buy anything from my mum's shop.
00:37:15I get it all given to me for free.
00:37:17I don't really have a type.
00:37:18I would just say big boobs, big bum, naturally pretty.
00:37:21Girls wouldn't love me quite quickly.
00:37:24I don't know.
00:37:24I think it's just my charm.
00:37:25If I like a girl, I'm pulling that girl.
00:37:27It's as simple as that.
00:37:30If I have to step on toes to get what I want,
00:37:32I'm stepping on toes.
00:37:33That's the game, innit?
00:37:35I'm here to find love.
00:37:36Just do my thing.
00:37:42So as you can see, six girls.
00:37:45A lima has gone for you.
00:37:47How are you feeling about that?
00:37:48Good.
00:37:48Every girl is beautiful here, so.
00:37:51Every girl is beautiful, but a lima chose you.
00:37:57She did actually say she had a vision in her head of what you might look like.
00:38:00A lima, does he live up to the expectations or?
00:38:02Yeah, I like what I'm seeing.
00:38:03Yeah, I just need to see if we vibe, obviously.
00:38:05A lima did also say that she's bilingual.
00:38:07Can you speak any other languages?
00:38:08I can, I can speak Spanish.
00:38:09Oh, okay.
00:38:11Hence the sexy senorita.
00:38:12And a lima can speak Spanish too.
00:38:16Ah, perfect.
00:38:17Portuguese is fluently, and then Spanish, I would say probably 80%.
00:38:21So you can communicate?
00:38:22Yeah.
00:38:22Do you want to have a little Spanish chat?
00:38:24¿Qué pasa?
00:38:26¿Qué pasa, lima?
00:38:26No, too shy, too shy.
00:38:30We'll practise later on.
00:38:31Do you not speak Spanish?
00:38:32Yeah, we'll practise later on.
00:38:32Do you not speak Spanish?
00:38:34I do, I promise I do.
00:38:35We can work on it, we can work on it.
00:38:36Exactly, we'll practise later on.
00:38:38Yeah, sure, sounds good to me.
00:38:39Okay, Blue, go and join a lima.
00:38:41Thank you, Maya.
00:38:46Lovely to meet you too.
00:38:47And we have our fifth Love Island couple, a lima and Blue.
00:38:56All right, Megan, it's finally time to meet Tommy.
00:38:58I know.
00:38:59Are you ready?
00:39:00Yeah.
00:39:01Let's bring him out.
00:39:03He's half Italian, he's full of fun.
00:39:05What are you, what are you, what are you, what are you doing?
00:39:07Let's find out if he's the one.
00:39:08Hello, Tommy.
00:39:09Welcome.
00:39:10Hi, Maya, you all right?
00:39:11Lovely to see you.
00:39:12I'm good, how are you?
00:39:12How's it going?
00:39:13So it's the rule that I'm here.
00:39:14Oh, you're coming from, you're the only one that did that.
00:39:16You look lovely yourself.
00:39:17Lovely.
00:39:18How are you feeling, Tommy?
00:39:20Yeah, it's a mix of emotions, but I'm absolutely buzzing to be it.
00:39:23Buzzing, confident, he wasn't lying.
00:39:25No, he wasn't.
00:39:30My name's Tommy, I'm 22, I'm a landscape gardener and I am from Potter's Bar.
00:39:35I always back myself when it comes to girls.
00:39:37Yeah, I'm tall, dark, handsome, half Italian.
00:39:40It's quite a stereotype to call an Italian boy a mummy's boy, but it probably is correct.
00:39:48Anything that happens in my life, I go to my mum first.
00:39:50She makes my packed lunchbox every day.
00:39:53I don't think my mum is going to get on with you.
00:39:55It could be a deal breaker.
00:39:57Oh, God.
00:40:00Not to sound too big-headed, but I do get quite a bit of attention from the girls.
00:40:05I want to find someone and do things a bit more meaningful on a deeper level,
00:40:10which I'm not really used to doing.
00:40:12I can fall for someone quite quickly if they do tick the boxes.
00:40:16I do think a few weeks in the villa could probably be enough for me to fall in love.
00:40:22You are our final boy.
00:40:23I'm the final one.
00:40:24And the girls have all picked who they want to be with based on their dating profiles.
00:40:29So, you have got the lovely Megan.
00:40:30How are you, Megan?
00:40:31You all right?
00:40:32How are you?
00:40:32How are you?
00:40:37Megan, do you like what you see?
00:40:38I do, yeah.
00:40:39Yeah?
00:40:40And how about you, Tommy?
00:40:41Yeah, no, she's beautiful, yeah.
00:40:45Okay.
00:40:45What do you like about his profile?
00:40:47To be honest, I wanted to know if you did chat GBT for that bio hour.
00:40:51Was it actually?
00:40:55It's a secret.
00:40:56How did you know that?
00:40:57It's a bit obvious.
00:40:58Pretty obvious, yeah.
00:40:59Well, I've got Italian heritage as well, so that kind of drew me in.
00:41:02Have you?
00:41:02Whereabouts?
00:41:03Sicily.
00:41:04Same as me.
00:41:05My family's half Sicilian.
00:41:07No way.
00:41:07Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:41:08We've got to do a little background research, though,
00:41:10because imagine your cousins.
00:41:10That would be a match.
00:41:11Oh, God, yeah.
00:41:12Okay, so, Tommy, do you like what you see?
00:41:14Oh, yeah, 100%, yeah.
00:41:15Off you pop.
00:41:16You can go and say hello to Megan.
00:41:17How are you?
00:41:18How are you?
00:41:19How are you?
00:41:20Lovely to meet you, aren't you?
00:41:23So that is it.
00:41:24We now have six gorgeous couples, Shakira and Ben, Meg and Dajon, Sophie and Harry,
00:41:33Helena and Connor, Aleema and Bloom, and Megan and Tommy.
00:41:39But girls, have you made the right choices?
00:41:42You will all spend this summer dating, living together, and even sharing a bed together.
00:41:47But don't forget, in eight weeks' time, the public will crown their Love Island winners,
00:41:54who could win £50,000.
00:41:56We'll pick in your type on paper, give you your happy ever after.
00:42:00Only time will tell.
00:42:02I'll leave you to get to know each other.
00:42:04Good luck, my honeys, and I will see you soon.
00:42:07Bye.
00:42:07Bye.
00:42:08Enjoy.
00:42:08Bye, Maya.
00:42:09Bye, Maya, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:42:13Speak up, Megan, wasn't it?
00:42:14Yeah.
00:42:14What?
00:42:14I'll probably chat later.
00:42:15Yes, brother.
00:42:16What's your name again?
00:42:18Ben.
00:42:18Ben.
00:42:19Come on.
00:42:19Tommy, nice to meet you.
00:42:21How you doing, darling?
00:42:22Nice to meet you, I'm Sophie.
00:42:23Sophie, nice to meet you, I'm Tommy.
00:42:24Hello, nice to meet you, I'm Meg.
00:42:28Whilst our Islanders settle into paradise, here's your chance to win a huge cash prize,
00:42:33an incredible getaway, and you could be here with me at the Love Island final.
00:42:37Here are the details.
00:42:38The Islanders have been put into their couples, and now they've all split up.
00:42:49What, already?
00:42:50Oh, no, wait, hang on, there's more words on the next page.
00:42:53They've split up into groups to discuss their decision, that makes more sense.
00:42:58How are we all feeling?
00:43:00I'm quite happy, you know.
00:43:01I think I quite like him.
00:43:03He's fit.
00:43:04Who are you with?
00:43:04Tommy.
00:43:05Tommy.
00:43:05Tommy, Italian stallion.
00:43:07Yeah, he's good, but he's giving, like, proper cheeky, like...
00:43:09I think you two, Sue.
00:43:10I think you two have got good bumps.
00:43:12I feel like I'll get on with him quite well.
00:43:14Boys, boys, y'all happy.
00:43:16I'm happy.
00:43:16I'm buzzing, yeah.
00:43:18She is sexy.
00:43:19But yeah, I don't know, we'll see, man.
00:43:21There's a few salts here, so we just have to get to know him, man.
00:43:24Do you know, I'm not...
00:43:25I don't know, I don't think I'm feeling him.
00:43:26Like, did you guys hear, like, when he came, right, like, Maya was like,
00:43:30oh, like, how'd you feel?
00:43:31And then he was like, oh, every girl is beautiful, obviously, which we are.
00:43:34Yeah.
00:43:34But I just find it so rude, do you know what I mean?
00:43:36So I'm like, I'm not going to be, like, coupled up with a man
00:43:39that's not going to give the exact same energy.
00:43:40Yeah, absolutely not.
00:43:42What about yourself?
00:43:43You're nice.
00:43:44You're not feeling him, are you?
00:43:46She's nice, she's not!
00:43:48I think he's a bit of you.
00:43:49Do you think?
00:43:50Yeah, go.
00:43:51Oh, no, but it's a start.
00:43:53Do you think you're happy with your girls?
00:43:54Not my usual, not my usual type of shit, essentially.
00:43:58I'm happy with my couple, don't get me wrong, but bomb showers.
00:44:01Yeah.
00:44:03Are we with Connor?
00:44:05Yeah, fucking rugby players.
00:44:06I think he seems sweet, though, for a rugby player.
00:44:09Exactly.
00:44:10He's Irish, he's attractive, and he's Irish.
00:44:13I don't know if he's a bit boring.
00:44:15I've literally haven't even had a conversation with him.
00:44:19Right, Shakira, do we even need to ask?
00:44:20Get her in bed!
00:44:21Oh, she's in love.
00:44:22Get her in bed!
00:44:23She's engaged, she is.
00:44:26No, he's, he's a bit of it.
00:44:27Is this the taxi driver?
00:44:29Yeah.
00:44:30Right, Megs, what's going on?
00:44:32Debrie.
00:44:32No, to be fair, I'm all right.
00:44:33Yeah?
00:44:34I feel like he's quite calm, like me, which is good.
00:44:36So...
00:44:36Soothing.
00:44:37Yeah, that's the test.
00:44:39We've all done it on types.
00:44:40Yeah, they weren't like our exact type.
00:44:42Exactly.
00:44:42But we've all done it and think, OK, he might be...
00:44:44It's taking away the physical.
00:44:45They're trying to find what we want on paper, out of a man,
00:44:48and take the physical attraction away.
00:44:49And actually, that might not be the case.
00:44:50Exactly.
00:44:57Connor's coupled up with Helena, who works his cabin crew.
00:44:59I said to Helena, I used to work for an airline.
00:45:02She said, virgin.
00:45:04I said, how dare you?
00:45:05I have a child.
00:45:06Yeah, it was so funny because, like, they said,
00:45:09oh, what's, like, a really big ick for you?
00:45:12And I said...
00:45:13No way you said rugby.
00:45:15What?
00:45:17I said rugby boys.
00:45:19Why?
00:45:19I don't know, it just gives me the ick.
00:45:21So how did you end up with me?
00:45:22I don't know.
00:45:26What are you, like, looking for, like, in terms of, like,
00:45:28looking for a bit of crack?
00:45:29You're looking for a boyfriend?
00:45:30A bit of crack?
00:45:31You're looking for a husband?
00:45:31What's a bit of crack?
00:45:32Bit of crack, like, bit of fun.
00:45:33But I laugh.
00:45:34Bit of fun, like, yeah.
00:45:35Erm...
00:45:36No, I'm 29 now, so I think that's where I'm looking.
00:45:38So I've actually never been in a relationship.
00:45:40Have you not?
00:45:40No.
00:45:41What?
00:45:41Never had a boyfriend.
00:45:42Why?
00:45:43Is it you, or...?
00:45:44I think it's a bit of both, to be honest.
00:45:46Why?
00:45:47I think...
00:45:48Surely you get people, like, approaching yourself.
00:45:50Yeah, but I feel like, now that I'm a bit older, I can't be, like,
00:45:56arse of pissing about going from, like, proper relationship,
00:45:59unless, like, I think I'm going to marry that person.
00:46:00Yeah.
00:46:01I'm not going to be in a relationship with them.
00:46:02Do you know what I mean?
00:46:03Because I just feel like wasting time.
00:46:04Yeah.
00:46:05To be honest, yeah, like, I've only had one girlfriend.
00:46:08How long was that?
00:46:10I'd say, like, eight weeks.
00:46:17I know, I know.
00:46:17How did it last eight weeks?
00:46:19Well, we were seeing each other for a while,
00:46:20but, like, she was under my girlfriend for eight weeks,
00:46:21and I think it's been two years since then,
00:46:24and then, like, I've grown a lot, doing a bit,
00:46:26so, yeah, I feel like I'm kind of a bit ready now.
00:46:30Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, so...
00:46:31Ready for a nine-week relationship.
00:46:33What would you normally go for, like, looks-wise?
00:46:35I'm just a massive personality person.
00:46:37Yeah?
00:46:38Like, four out of ten that can make you laugh.
00:46:40Not saying that you're a boyfriend.
00:46:43Yeah, I hope not.
00:46:45I wouldn't usually, like, go for blondes, like...
00:46:47Blondes?
00:46:48Yeah.
00:46:48Really?
00:46:48Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:46:51But, like...
00:46:51Oh, no, so you've probably walked in before.
00:46:53Oh, he walked in, and I was like, fuck, the only one.
00:46:55The only one.
00:46:56The only one.
00:46:57Nah, but again, like, I wouldn't...
00:46:59I'll just fuck off with him, shall I?
00:47:01After actually speaking to Connor,
00:47:02he did actually surprise me.
00:47:04He's, um...
00:47:04I thought he was going to be boring, but he isn't.
00:47:07The only problem is, he's actually blondes aren't his type,
00:47:09so, yeah, fuck me, I'm the only blonde in here.
00:47:12Harry's coupled up with Sophie,
00:47:14who's a motivational speaker.
00:47:16I was going to go to one of Sophie's motivational talks,
00:47:19but in the end, I couldn't be arsed.
00:47:21How are you?
00:47:23Yeah, I feel good. How are you doing?
00:47:24I'm good, thank you.
00:47:26Just settling in.
00:47:27Yeah.
00:47:27Do you know what I've actually felt bad for the boys?
00:47:30Because you guys are just walking,
00:47:31and you've met your fate already.
00:47:34I liked it.
00:47:34Did you?
00:47:35I liked it, yeah, yeah.
00:47:36I feel like you look good.
00:47:37I like a lady in red, so...
00:47:39Okay.
00:47:40I chose you because I'm 29,
00:47:43and so I'm dating for, like, marriage.
00:47:46Serious.
00:47:46Agreed.
00:47:47You know, and I think that's why when I read yours,
00:47:50your love heart, it said, like, either a wild card or a marriage,
00:47:53and I was like, oh, okay,
00:47:55so I need to go off what I'm here for.
00:47:57But obviously, like, when the girls asked me,
00:48:00and when we were honest, I said, I don't know if it's me,
00:48:02I don't know, because I've not got your vibe.
00:48:04So you...
00:48:04Do you think, like, the way I look, you're like,
00:48:06he's not a husband?
00:48:08I don't think it's that.
00:48:09I think it's more, when I see someone as a husband,
00:48:12it's in your traits of your character.
00:48:13Right.
00:48:14For me, intimacy and, like, dating is quite, like,
00:48:19out of my comfort zone.
00:48:22Interesting.
00:48:24But when, like, I'm not dating, I'm usually,
00:48:27I just stay celibate.
00:48:28So how long have you been single?
00:48:30I've only had one boyfriend.
00:48:32Have you?
00:48:32And then when I was 22, I was in a fire accident.
00:48:36Okay.
00:48:36I'm sorry to hear that.
00:48:38It made me the woman that I am.
00:48:40You look great as well.
00:48:41You do look good.
00:48:42And it made me learn so much about life
00:48:47and interactions with people and how to be better.
00:48:51Because I believe that to date people,
00:48:54you also need to be in a good place in yourself,
00:48:56within yourself.
00:48:57Yeah.
00:48:57So that's why I think in my early 20s,
00:48:59I wasn't ready to date,
00:49:00because I didn't feel good in myself.
00:49:01I had a lot of self-work to do.
00:49:02I had a lot of building my own confidence.
00:49:05Now I'm a motivational speaker.
00:49:07Are you?
00:49:07And I'm an author.
00:49:09Wow.
00:49:10So...
00:49:10I love reading.
00:49:11Oh, do you?
00:49:12I read every night, yeah.
00:49:13Oh, that's so good.
00:49:14Me too.
00:49:15I've had a bit of one-on-one time with Sophie.
00:49:19She seems like a lovely girl, extremely mature,
00:49:22got her head screwed on.
00:49:23Maybe a little bit much for me.
00:49:25How are you feeling about, like,
00:49:27what you're thinking much on your mind?
00:49:31I'll be honest, on paper, you're not my type.
00:49:33Mm-hm.
00:49:34Of course.
00:49:34But I'm open to get to know you.
00:49:36Yeah, it's literally the first day.
00:49:38Yeah.
00:49:39I don't think that anybody should be, like, hosed off.
00:49:42And I think it's just easier if, like,
00:49:44we just have that challenge.
00:49:45Yeah, yeah, for sure.
00:49:45I mean, that means, like, we're not wasting anyone's time.
00:49:47Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:49:48I mean, like, the thing as well,
00:49:49it was just, like, when you walked in and then Maya was like,
00:49:51oh, how are you feeling?
00:49:52She's like, oh, they're all beautiful.
00:49:53And then I'm just like...
00:49:54I didn't mean to say that.
00:49:55Yeah, if I'm coupled up with a man,
00:49:57I don't need another woman to tell them that I'm beautiful.
00:50:00Yeah, of course, I didn't mean it in that way at all.
00:50:02But at the same time, I get exactly what you meant.
00:50:04You just wanted to compliment everyone, and I get it.
00:50:07I think it's not the best of your words.
00:50:08No, I'm not.
00:50:09But honestly, I know you've got good intentions.
00:50:11Yeah, yeah, no, it's fine.
00:50:12Yeah.
00:50:14Yeah, it's, um...
00:50:15Nice chat.
00:50:16Yeah, it's been a nice chat.
00:50:17I think I've been to...
00:50:18Yeah, nice chat.
00:50:19Well, I'll see you later on, then, if you're about.
00:50:21From the conversation that I've had with Blue,
00:50:23I'm going to be completely honest.
00:50:24I'm still not feeling it.
00:50:26We've both managed to establish the fact
00:50:28that we are not each other's type.
00:50:29Right, firstly, like, what's your type of paper?
00:50:31Like, obviously, we're all in here.
00:50:33You've got to get to know everyone.
00:50:35I usually go for brunettes.
00:50:38Nice body, nice bum.
00:50:40Piers and Annie's really important,
00:50:41because you could be really good-looking,
00:50:42and then the energy don't match.
00:50:44Do you know what I mean?
00:50:44So, I don't know, just someone who I think, you know,
00:50:47I can bring home to my family, and my mum will really, like...
00:50:51No, I'm softer at heart.
00:50:52Like, I know I look like a bit of a geezer,
00:50:54but a bit softer, big dad.
00:50:57Was I what you were expecting?
00:50:58No.
00:50:59I don't know what I was expecting, to be honest.
00:51:01I can't believe you're, like, actually, like,
00:51:02quarter Sicilian or whatever you are.
00:51:03Yeah.
00:51:04My nan's watching this.
00:51:05My nonna, she's going to be buzzing.
00:51:06That's so cute.
00:51:07Yeah, she'll be buzzing.
00:51:08What? What's your type?
00:51:09My type?
00:51:10Yeah.
00:51:10I like tall, muscly, good smile, but charming, witty,
00:51:16not arrogant, confident.
00:51:19Wow.
00:51:20Quite a lot.
00:51:21You've got to live up to it.
00:51:21You've got to scroll.
00:51:22I know.
00:51:23Any more before you...?
00:51:25No, that's basically it.
00:51:26Just someone who can make me giggle.
00:51:27Yeah.
00:51:28Come on, though.
00:51:28What about you, Benny Brough?
00:51:29Yeah.
00:51:30Right, looks, under, like, five foot six, nice teeth,
00:51:33cute smile, nice eyes.
00:51:35Ambitious goals that she wants to achieve in her life.
00:51:38Yeah.
00:51:39Just someone that's career driven.
00:51:40That's a big thing for me.
00:51:43Meg made some comments earlier, and as they walk to the big sofa,
00:51:46Dijon's wondering, what's the deal?
00:51:48I'll tell you what the deal is, mate.
00:51:50Buy 16 orange cushions, get a 17 free.
00:51:53Right.
00:51:54Are you happy I chose you?
00:51:56Erm...
00:51:58I'm not sure.
00:51:59OK.
00:52:00Why?
00:52:01I was happy when I first walked in.
00:52:03Yeah.
00:52:03But obviously, I think that you're beautiful.
00:52:05I think that you're funny and stuff.
00:52:06So, yeah, you intrigued me, but it was just your comment, you know,
00:52:09when you said about the 50-50.
00:52:11OK.
00:52:11So, when, obviously, I read your little board thing...
00:52:14Yeah.
00:52:14..I love to play hard, and then you was like, yeah, you know,
00:52:18party until 3, 4am in the morning.
00:52:20And I thought, Ellie still wants that?
00:52:22He don't want to settle down?
00:52:23Oh.
00:52:24Look, I like to party, don't get me wrong.
00:52:25I'm in that club till the end.
00:52:27I will do the same.
00:52:27Yeah.
00:52:28That was the only thing.
00:52:29So, don't let that...
00:52:30So, that was the 50-50, the partying?
00:52:32That was the 50-50.
00:52:33So, take away the party, and then what, then?
00:52:34Yeah, you can be 100, it's fine.
00:52:36You can be 110 if it makes you better.
00:52:38OK, OK, OK.
00:52:39It's fine.
00:52:40Now I'm happy, now I'm happy.
00:52:41OK.
00:52:41Do you feel like there's, like, one of the girls
00:52:43that you could be, like, rather be with her?
00:52:45No.
00:52:46I'm happy.
00:52:46Really?
00:52:46Oh, good.
00:52:47Generally, happy.
00:52:48Good.
00:52:48I think, like, when I saw that you was next to my name...
00:52:51Yeah.
00:52:52Like, made me smile.
00:52:53Was you happy?
00:52:54OK, good.
00:52:54Yeah, I was happy.
00:52:55But then you said the 50-50 thing, and I was like...
00:52:57No, don't be taken back by that.
00:52:58It's just the first impression of you.
00:53:01Like, I don't get to see you.
00:53:02I don't get to see what you look like.
00:53:03It's just that board with a little line.
00:53:04Like, can you imagine what my line would be?
00:53:06So, why did you pick it, then?
00:53:07I don't know.
00:53:09Maybe your name?
00:53:10I just thought...
00:53:13I've got to say it right now.
00:53:14Wait, how...
00:53:15Dejeune.
00:53:15It's not bad, but, like, say it more, like, flowy.
00:53:18Right, you say it.
00:53:18Dejeune.
00:53:19Dejeune.
00:53:20Yeah, there you go.
00:53:20Yeah, but you say it really sexy.
00:53:21I just say it like...
00:53:22Dejeune.
00:53:25Dejeune.
00:53:26Yeah, Dejeune.
00:53:26You got it.
00:53:27After the conversation with Meg,
00:53:28I'm feeling definitely more positive.
00:53:30It was good.
00:53:30Like, I've always said my type is a beautiful girl on the outside
00:53:34and a beautiful girl on the inside.
00:53:35So, yeah, I'm excited for what's to come.
00:53:37So, what about you?
00:53:38Is there...
00:53:39Is there anybody else that you'd rather be coupled that way?
00:53:41No.
00:53:42No?
00:53:42No.
00:53:43I'm happy with my choice.
00:53:50They're saying Sonny Hayes is this rough and tumble, old school, goes his own way,
00:53:57doesn't take orders, cowboy.
00:54:00We all lose our jobs if you can't pull off a miracle.
00:54:04Be ready.
00:54:05Ready for war.
00:54:08Classies for combat.
00:54:11You're crazy, bro.
00:54:14Take it out of my paycheck.
00:54:15We don't pay you enough.
00:54:22ITV2 is now bigger.
00:54:24Oh, my God.
00:54:25Much louder.
00:54:27And more outrageous than ever.
00:54:30Bursting with all your favorites, there's so much more to love.
00:54:34This is where the fun begins.
00:54:36Enjoy these epic shows and more on ITV2 and ITVX.
00:54:43I thought we were Endgame.
00:54:45But, game over.
00:54:48Where clothes move on.
00:54:50eBay sponsors Love Island.
00:54:54I've been looking at you.
00:54:56It's the Islanders' first night.
00:54:57They're so lucky.
00:54:58To help them fall in love, they've got eight weeks and the backing of Maya Jama.
00:55:02To help me fall in love, all I ever had was eight WKDs and a bottle of Jameson.
00:55:07I wish you'd talk, talk, wish you'd talk, talk.
00:55:10Who are we chatting to?
00:55:13I think I need to call Tommy, finally.
00:55:15Because he had a one-on-one time.
00:55:17Yeah, I haven't had a conversation with him.
00:55:18Because Ben, yeah?
00:55:18Properly.
00:55:19This is the first time I'm, like, spending the night with a girl in the bed.
00:55:24Oh, seriously, yeah?
00:55:25Because I've never really been in a proper relationship, have I?
00:55:27Megan's going to be the first girl.
00:55:29Does she know?
00:55:30Does she know?
00:55:31No.
00:55:32I don't think I'll tell her.
00:55:32It might scare her.
00:55:34I got to speak with Harry and I was really open and honest.
00:55:37And he's really nice, you know?
00:55:39Yeah.
00:55:39Even, uh, Helena, I know you were interested, but, like, it'd be so nice you got to know me.
00:55:45You got to know me.
00:55:45I don't want you to feel like I'm, like, no.
00:55:48No, I respect that massively.
00:55:58Hey, lads, what were you saying then?
00:55:59First night in the villa.
00:56:00Ready?
00:56:00You just want to kiss Shakira, bro.
00:56:05I wish you talked to, wish you talked to, wish you talked to, wish you just talked to me.
00:56:19Well, cheers to a summer of love!
00:56:23To the summer of our lives!
00:56:25Hey!
00:56:29Shakira and taxi driver Ben are heading to the den.
00:56:32Shakira wanted to go to the fire pit, but Ben said, sorry, love, I don't go side for the swimming pool.
00:56:37What are you giggling at?
00:56:39You.
00:56:39Why?
00:56:40Because you're hard work.
00:56:41I'm hard work?
00:56:42Yeah.
00:56:42But I'm a hard work.
00:56:43I'm joking.
00:56:44I feel like you could be.
00:56:47I feel like you could definitely be hard work.
00:56:51I'm not saying that's a bad thing.
00:56:52I'm not saying that's a bad thing.
00:56:53I didn't say I didn't like hard work.
00:56:54I'm hard work.
00:56:55I haven't spoken to anyone in two and a half months.
00:56:57That's a fact.
00:56:59So my game is probably a little bit rusty.
00:57:02You've got to bear with me.
00:57:02Nah, it has been a while.
00:57:04What is your game?
00:57:04Go on, what's like?
00:57:05I've got no game.
00:57:06You've got no game?
00:57:07I've got no game.
00:57:08No riz.
00:57:09No riz at all.
00:57:11That's why I'm...
00:57:12Don't give me the eyebrow, like, getting all sassy.
00:57:14But you trying to find the love for your life then?
00:57:17Absolutely.
00:57:19I don't date for the sake of it.
00:57:21Yeah.
00:57:22Like, I'd rather just be single.
00:57:23Yeah.
00:57:24Like, if I'm dating, it's someone I genuinely see a future with.
00:57:27I'm very picky.
00:57:28Little things can put me off.
00:57:29Like what?
00:57:30Personality traits.
00:57:31You're too much.
00:57:32Like, if you're too...
00:57:32Okay.
00:57:33Do you know what I mean?
00:57:34Yeah, that's me all over.
00:57:35Nah, it's not you all over.
00:57:36It is.
00:57:37You're a feisty one.
00:57:38Yeah, I am.
00:57:39I don't know if you can handle that, though.
00:57:41I'm all right at handling it.
00:57:42But putting up with it is another thing.
00:57:44Megan's coupled up with landscape gardener Tommy.
00:57:49I booked a landscaper last week.
00:57:51He walked in, pulled down my trousers and waxed my knackers.
00:57:55Turns out I booked a manscaper.
00:57:57Do you come into London a lot?
00:57:58Yeah.
00:57:59Yeah?
00:57:59Yeah, for, like, auditions and stuff.
00:58:00Oh, what, for your musical theatre?
00:58:02Do you do shows in London?
00:58:03No, I did, like, a panto at Christmas and stuff.
00:58:05Well, get a ticket in front row.
00:58:06Would you?
00:58:06Are you, like, the main character?
00:58:07Are you, like, dancer or what?
00:58:08Er, no, I was one of the ugly sisters in Cinderella at Christmas, yeah.
00:58:12But they were, like, bougie ugly sisters, do you know what I mean?
00:58:14Like, sort of, I got away with it.
00:58:15Like, fit ugly sisters.
00:58:16Yeah, fit, like, Kardashian ugly sisters, like.
00:58:18I love that.
00:58:19I reckon I'll be decent in a panto.
00:58:20I've done A-level drama.
00:58:21Did you?
00:58:22I've done GCSE drama and A-level drama.
00:58:24Right, and how was that?
00:58:25I'm a pretty good actor, I think.
00:58:26I see that thing.
00:58:27I always wanted to, like, do acting.
00:58:29That was always, like, what I wanted to do, like, childhood dream and that.
00:58:32That's all of, like, my family's very working class.
00:58:34Do a trade, do this, do that.
00:58:35So, like, my brother's a plumber.
00:58:37And then I sort of tried a few things, went to uni, dropped out.
00:58:41Was an estate agent for two years.
00:58:42Didn't like that.
00:58:43I've always lived, you know, at home with my mum.
00:58:45I live in, like, a little box room, like, single bed.
00:58:48Single bed?
00:58:48Single bed, yeah.
00:58:50What are your sheets like?
00:58:51What do you mean?
00:58:51That's a bit of a weird question.
00:58:53What are my sheets like?
00:58:54No, but, like, you know the boys that, like, still live at home and have, like,
00:58:57New York plastic all over their bedrooms, though?
00:58:59No, my brother's got that, I think.
00:59:00Oh, unless he's changed.
00:59:01He used to have...
00:59:02Spider-Man?
00:59:03No, I've just got...
00:59:05Oh, God.
00:59:06But, yeah, no, my room's quite cosy.
00:59:08Are you happy I picked you, then?
00:59:10Yeah, buzz it.
00:59:10I was, no, to be completely honest,
00:59:14if I had the choice, everyone there, I would have 100% picked you.
00:59:16Really?
00:59:16You are, like, my type, like, to a T.
00:59:20If I saw Megan on a night out, I'd definitely 100% fancy her straight away,
00:59:24so she is definitely my type.
00:59:26But, obviously, it is very early days,
00:59:28so we're just going to have to wait and see.
00:59:29Meg's coupled up with Dijon, who's a personal trainer this morning.
00:59:33And Dijon asked me where I live and if I had any birthmarks.
00:59:36I mean, that is one very personal trainer.
00:59:39If anything, too personal.
00:59:41You OK?
00:59:41How are you, my love?
00:59:42Good, how are you?
00:59:43Yeah, I'm good.
00:59:44Good.
00:59:44You sure?
00:59:45Well, do you, like...
00:59:46You just keep smiling.
00:59:48You're just...
00:59:49I just, like, looking at you, you make me smile.
00:59:50Aw, thank you.
00:59:51You want me to be happy?
00:59:52Yeah, that's good.
00:59:53Good energy.
00:59:56You happy?
00:59:56Yeah.
00:59:56Yeah, I'm happy.
00:59:58I think, like, more than happy, then, like, I don't think any of the others,
01:00:01I would be like, yeah, I want to couple up with you.
01:00:04Like...
01:00:04What would you say is your type?
01:00:05I go for, like, nice eyes, nice smile, someone that's mature as well,
01:00:09and, like, a family man.
01:00:11I don't want, like, no immature, and I don't want to be his mum.
01:00:14I hear that.
01:00:15Do I not need to be your mum?
01:00:17No, you don't need to be my mum.
01:00:18Are you a mummy's boy?
01:00:19No.
01:00:20Perfect.
01:00:21There we go, then.
01:00:22So, yeah, are you going to...?
01:00:23I love my mum, though.
01:00:24I love my mum.
01:00:25No, I'll say that I'm very independent, like, when I was 16, I moved away from home, so...
01:00:36Same.
01:00:36When I was, like, 15, I moved out of my mum's and lived with my nan.
01:00:40This is really weird, you know, like...
01:00:41Why?
01:00:42Are you close to your nan?
01:00:43Yeah, nan's are the best.
01:00:45Yeah.
01:00:45That's so crazy, you know.
01:00:47Like, I'm really close...
01:00:48That's really weird.
01:00:49On my arm, got a tattoo on my nan.
01:00:50Stop.
01:00:52I'm allergic to tattoos.
01:00:55This evening, I've been getting to know Meg a little bit better.
01:00:58I think she's a wonderful girl.
01:01:00Beautiful on the outside, beautiful on the inside.
01:01:02Having so many similar interests, similar values.
01:01:06She's really close to her nan.
01:01:07She lives with her nan.
01:01:09My nan is, like, my everything.
01:01:11And it's early days, but, you know, you can only go with how you're feeling,
01:01:14and how I'm feeling right now with Meg is...
01:01:16It's feeling like it's meant to be.
01:01:23There's tension in the air.
01:01:25There's a storm cloud on the horizon.
01:01:28And by the looks of it, there's a flute in the fire pit.
01:01:33It can only mean one thing.
01:01:35Maya Jama's back, and she's got her twist and store.
01:01:40Yeah, we're ready for a war.
01:01:43The power is taking over.
01:01:46Need the glory coming back for more.
01:01:50Oh, we got this.
01:01:53Watch and see.
01:01:54Oh, who is that?
01:02:06Oh, shit.
01:02:09Good evening, Islanders.
01:02:11Hey, hey. Hello.
01:02:14Could you all gather at the fire pit, please?
01:02:16Hello.
01:02:18She looks fucking large.
01:02:20Do or die, we'll be victorious.
01:02:28Victorious.
01:02:29We'll be victorious.
01:02:32Victorious.
01:02:33Coming for the kingdom, coming for the crown.
01:02:36Nothing alive that can stop us now.
01:02:40We'll be victorious.
01:02:42Victorious.
01:02:45Never saw it coming.
01:02:53So, how has your first day in the villa been?
01:02:55Yeah, it's been good.
01:02:56Good.
01:02:56All right, yeah.
01:02:57Helen, are you into rugby boys yet?
01:02:58Well, he told me he didn't like blondes.
01:03:00I don't really go for blondes, so...
01:03:06Megan, does Tommy's personality match his profile?
01:03:08He's lovely, yeah.
01:03:09He's nice.
01:03:11And, Meg.
01:03:12Hello.
01:03:12Any movement on 50-50?
01:03:14Wow, we've gone to 100.
01:03:16I had to change to 50-50.
01:03:18I said before, coming in, my type is someone who's beautiful on the outside and inside,
01:03:21and, yeah, she ticks both boxes.
01:03:23Shakira and Ben, how are you guys getting on?
01:03:26Go on.
01:03:30Give her a couple more dates.
01:03:31We're in limbo.
01:03:32We are.
01:03:32Are you just doing that to flat?
01:03:33Just like, vickering?
01:03:35Right, yeah, maybe.
01:03:35I don't know.
01:03:36My goodness.
01:03:37It's a love-hate relationship.
01:03:38This is confusing already.
01:03:39Yeah, it's very confusing.
01:03:40Okay, but do you fancy each other?
01:03:42Yeah.
01:03:42Yeah.
01:03:42All right, good start.
01:03:44Yeah, it is.
01:03:46Well, as you know, this is Love Island, and I promise twists and turns.
01:03:52Oh, my God.
01:03:55Celeste, start, shall we?
01:03:56Please welcome Tony.
01:04:10Are you ready for battle?
01:04:11Are you ready for war?
01:04:13Let's go.
01:04:14When it comes to finding the man of my dreams, nothing gets in my way.
01:04:18Are you ready for battle?
01:04:20Are you ready for war?
01:04:21Let's go.
01:04:22When it comes to finding the man of my dreams, nothing gets in my way.
01:04:36Are you ready for battle?
01:04:38Are you ready for war?
01:04:39I'm Tony.
01:04:40I'm 24.
01:04:41I work in Las Vegas as a pool cabana server.
01:04:43Let's go.
01:04:45I'm tired of American boys.
01:04:47I've flown all this way to find love.
01:04:49Maybe I am just what these British guys are missing.
01:04:51Are you ready for battle?
01:04:55Are you ready for war?
01:04:56Let's go.
01:04:58He's getting rid of you already.
01:04:59Have you seen this?
01:04:59Wait, Tony, is anyone got a boy's name?
01:05:02Tony, yeah.
01:05:05Let's go.
01:05:05Oh, my God.
01:05:07Hello, Tony.
01:05:08Welcome to Love Island.
01:05:10Good evening, UK.
01:05:18Surprise.
01:05:18Shit.
01:05:27So, how are you doing, Tony?
01:05:28I'm good, happy to be here.
01:05:29You are our first American Islander ever.
01:05:32I'm a lucky girl, aren't I?
01:05:33Yeah.
01:05:34Well, as you can see, there are six gorgeous couples in front of you.
01:05:38Earlier today, the girls chose to couple up with the boys
01:05:42based on their dating profiles alone.
01:05:44You now have a very big decision to make.
01:05:46Interesting.
01:05:50You're going to have to steal a boy of your choice.
01:05:53We have Tommy, Blue, Connor, Harry, Dejean, and Ben.
01:06:10So, who are you going to pick?
01:06:12Just like that?
01:06:13Oh, my God.
01:06:33Ben.
01:06:34OK, Ben, come and stand next to Tony.
01:06:44How are you doing?
01:06:44Happy.
01:06:45You OK?
01:06:46I'm all right.
01:06:47Oh, my God.
01:06:59Shakira, you are now single.
01:07:01Please stand up.
01:07:07Better run, better run, better run now.
01:07:10Better run, better run, better run now.
01:07:12Shakira, the good news is you're not being dumped tonight, but you could be tomorrow
01:07:28night.
01:07:33Shakira, you now have 24 hours to find a connection with one of the boys in the villa.
01:07:41If one of them decides to couple up with you, then you are safe.
01:07:46And one of the other girls will be dumped in your place.
01:07:59As Tony has stolen Ben, they cannot be broken up.
01:08:05And if none of the boys want to re-couple with you, sadly, it will be you that's going home.
01:08:11Boys, are you happy in your couple or could you be happier?
01:08:30It's time to find out who's here for the real reasons, who's willing to take risks to find
01:08:35the one or who's just playing it safe.
01:08:38And girls, I suggest you keep your boys very close.
01:08:41I'll see you very soon.
01:08:43Take care.
01:08:44Bye.
01:08:45You've got to make sure you're back here for the next scorching hot bit of Love Island
01:09:04at nine tomorrow.
01:09:05And don't forget your favourite Love Island legends back with a brand new series, Looking
01:09:09at the World of Beauty.
01:09:11First up, she's taking on weight management in Olivia Atwood, The Price of Perfection.
01:09:15That's this Thursday from five past ten or straight after Love Island, as I call it.
01:09:19But right now on ITV2, we're taking you back to the very beginning of the action with our
01:09:23crew in Liverpool.
01:09:24Go ahead.
01:09:25He's up next.
