LOVE ISLAND THEME TUNE
IAIN STIRLING: It's January,
your jeans have mysteriously shrunk in the wash,
and there's nothing but Mini Bountys left in the sweet tin.
But don't worry, Britain.
We're about to blow those winter blues away.
# Don't you know I'm good Yeah, I'm feeling all right... #
Yes, for ten sexy singles, the adventure is about to begin,
and once it's started, there's no going backwards.
Ah, the drone pilot just went backwards!
You've ruined that!
The point is that after three long years, we're back in South Africa.
Get in!
And to celebrate, say hello to our most incredible villa ever.
This place has it all -
a stunning bathroom,
a luxurious dressing room,
and a gorgeous bedroom -
or as I call it, UNdressing room!
Hang on, do those swimming pools
look like a massive kno... bloody way I can say that on television.
This is the perfect place for some serious fun in the sun,
and in two months' time,
one couple will be walking out of here
with a tasty 50 grand cash prize.
# Don't you know I'm good Yeah, I'm feeling all right... #
Right, time to meet the lads,
and if you're wondering why they're standing up,
some idiot left the Jeeps out in the sun, so if they sat down,
they'd burn their kno... bloody way I can say that on television.
Let's go! This is crazy!
# Baby, I'mma have
# The best freakin' night Of my life... #
Nice to meet you, bro. Nice to meet you, man.
Shaq, man.
Haris, man. This is crazy. How mad is this villa?
This is mad.
Oh, my days. No way!
Bit of champagne as well.
THEY LAUGH
You'll be popping that, bro. I don't know how to pop that!
I actually can't take it in.
Perfect. Oh, shit...
Cheers to our first day in the villa, bro.
Cheers, man! Respect.
This is crazy.
If I think that you're good looking, I'm coming after you.
I'm Shaq, I'm 24, and I'm an airport security officer from London.
I'm the talk of the terminal.
Just flash a little smile to the airhostess and usually that works.
I know, it's really bad, I should be at work, working,
but that's what duty-free downstairs is for,
we can use the aftershave for free!
Last relationship was about two years ago.
If I'm being honest, when I say I'm looking for my future wife,
I mean it.
HE LAUGHS
But, until I'm in a relationship, then my options are always open.
I can't let my girlfriend stop me from finding my wife.
"Tall, dark, and handsome", that's exactly what I am.
What's not to like about me?
The girls in the villa,
they'll take one look at me and they'll know what time it is.
HE LAUGHS
It's Shaq time.
You've gotta get a quick pump in, man.
This is where I'm gonna take whoever I like
for, like, a the private workout in the morning.
I can do a nice little circuit with a girl.
If that comes into play, then it's game over,
do you know what I mean?
We're nice and sweaty.
All right, two seconds, two seconds.
Hey, I'm Haris, 21, I'm a TV salesman from Doncaster.
I'm that good at selling, I can sell a TV
when it's not even on.
I've got the chat, I've got the energy,
I've got the smile,
and I've been the best for the past four years.
There's no girl that could turn me down, I kid you not.
The girls that I've been with have been very good looking.
If I showed you them, you'd be like,
"Haris, no way." Like, "Why did that happen?"
but I've never actually had the butterflies,
and I've never fell in love.
My tape on paper, she'd have to be tanned.
My
My type
My type on paper, she'd have to be tanned.
She's gotta be very confident, as well,
a bit spicy, do you know what I mean?
And feet, they can't be, like, over size... five?
I'm not going over five.
My mum always tells me I look like Ronaldo.
I'll always take that.
The goal is, obviously, to enter the villa,
fall in love, and take a girl home to my mum.
This villa is beautiful. Oh, my God. This is crazy.
So, when's the last time you was in, like, a relationship sort of thing?
I've never had a girlfriend, I've never really took one home.
Oh, is it? So, I've never...
You don't really count! Yeah.
So, I see a few girls for a few months,
and then it just dies down all the time.
It never, like, it never takes that next step, do you know what mean?
Are you a relationship guy, or, like, what're you?
Well, I've been single for about two years, man.
Two years? Yeah, about two years.
You just been chilling? Just chilling, yeah...
Hopping around, yeah!
There's gonna be enough girls in here.
I'm trying to find my future wife in here.
Yeah, I'm trying to settle down, I can't lie.
# We don't have to Take our clothes off
# To have a good time
# We could dance and party all night
# And drink some cherry wine, oh
# We don't
# Take our clothes off
# No, no
# We don't, we don't
# Na, na, na, na, na, na Na na
# Na, na, na, na, na, na Na na... #
Yes, lads! Hey!
What's going on?
No way. Pour this guy some champagne.
You all right? My name's Haris. Will, man.
Shaq. Nice to meet you.
How have you boys been, then? Yeah, we've been all right, man.
It's been mad. We're in the villa, bro.
This is nice, though, innit?
Here, grab one man. Oh, go on, then.
Mad experience. Yeah, mad. This is crazy.
I can't wait to meet these girls, though, man.
Yeah, honestly.
What you do, bro? I'm a farmer. Is it?
Hopefully the girls like that, bro. You know it, mate.
My name is Will Young. Not the singer, the farmer.
Being a farmer, I love it.
When I walk out the back door in the morning,
my little pigs wait with their little noses on the fence
waiting to get fed.
It's such a nice, wholesome life.
That's why I'm such a positive, happy person.
Being on social media, you get a lot of attention.
A lot of girls are in my DMs asking, "Can I come to the farm?"
You say to the girls, "Look, do you wanna see the animals?"
One thing leads to another, we're in the hay bales
and Bob's your uncle.
In the villa, I'm looking to find love.
You know, someone with the energy, the vibe,
and, ultimately, someone to be a little mummy to my animals.
So, let's get down to it, then. What's the exes like, then?
I've had, like, three girlfriends but the last one, my ex,
that was a last serious... Yeah. ..serious one.
What about you? Never.
Never had a girlfriend? No.
Is it? No.
I'm the only relationship guy here! No way!
In here, there's no point wasting time.
You don't know how long you're gonna be here.
One to the other, to the other, to the other.
Oh!
# Can I be honest?
# I still want your hands Up on my body
# You still make my heart beat fast Ferrari
# With me in the wave But in the morning
# Do you still want me? #
Oi, oi! Oi!
What's up, boys? Yes.
Oh, bit of bubbly, yeah?
Get bit of champagne, bro. Mate, how unreal is it?
This is mad. Look at this gaff.
This is mad.
I'm Shaq, man. How you doing? Yeah, go on.
What's your name? Ron. Nice to meet you, bro.
Will, man. Bro, nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you. Haris. Nice to meet you, bro.
I'm Ron, I'm 25. I'm a financial adviser from Essex.
All my girl mates say I'm a flirt. I love a flirt.
Gift of the gab, you know, being from Essex.
I'm the first on the dance floor. You got do a bit of this...
HE CHUCKLES
My best physical feature? Got to be my eyes
cos they're two different colours.
I'm blind in one eye.
Girls always come up to me and say, "I love your eyes."
You know, if a nice girl walks into a room, me and the boys are like...
"Oh, she's blindsided me!"
Got to play on your words, got to use it to your advantage.
HE CHUCKLES
I've been single for about four or five years now. I need love.
That's what I'm looking for. Don't really have a type, you know.
As long as I'm vibing with her, as long as their a nice girl
and they've got a bit of chat, I'm game.
I am a diamond in the rough.
What do you boys do for work?
I'm a part-time salesman but I box as well.
Oh, nice.
I just done my first charity fight. Did you do it, like, properly?
I'd love to, the problem is...
I mean, I'll probably tell everyone else,
but I'm actually blind in one eye. Is it?
Really? Yeah. My right eye.
So, for me, it was probably the most stupid thing I could have done.
You could see it as quite risky, but, hey, you're all right, man,
you're on Love Island.
What's your type?
You know, a lot of people say they don't have a type.
I'm gonna be one of them.
For me, if you can't hold a conversation. Yeah.
If there's no vibe with you, you're getting binned.
Especially in here.
Are you a relationship guy? Have you had an ex?
No. You've never had a girlfriend either?
Still living the dream.
I had one, you know, back in sixth form.
You're ready to settle down now, yeah?
Yeah. 100%. Yeah.
MUSIC: 'Celestial' by Ed Sheeran
# You make me feel
# Like I'm drunk on stars And we're dancing out in space
# Celestial Celestial
# Celestial
# Oh oh-oh-oh
# Celestial
# Oh oh-oh-oh
# Celestial. #
Yes, lads, what are you saying?
What's going on? Oi! Oi!
HE CHUCKLES
How are you doing, mate?
I'm good, mate. What's goin' on?
Get this down me, I've not had a bev for ages.
Yeah, well, you're definitely from Manchester, you.
I am, mate, whereabouts are you from?
Doncaster.
Oh, mate, I went to uni in Sheffield.
Nice to meet you, bro. Kai, nice to meet you.
What's your name? Kai.
Shaq, man. Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you, man.
Nice to meet you, bruv.
I've never seen one of these before.
My name's Kai.
I'm 24 years old and I'm a science and PE teacher from Manchester.
I'd like to say I'm a strict teacher,
but when I shout the kids laugh.
Single life has been good, I absolutely love dating.
Delegate every Friday night to a date.
I believe in playing the field
because you got to find out which is the right one.
There's no point just settling for anybody.
I was with my ex-girlfriend for about two years.
I'd say she broke my heart.
I'm excited to find love again with somebody else.
I'm excited to find those tingles in your belly.
When I go into the villa,
I'm going to make sure I'm getting the girl I want.
I'm looking for a wife, me.
How are you feeling about the birds?
Bruv!
Exciting, man, innit?
Oh, mate, I've been buzzing.
What is the oldest that you'll go to?
I'll go for about 40. Whey!
LAUGHTER
He said 40!
Mate, I don't care. For a missus?
Oh, right, like a proper wife? Nah. Probably about 28.
What did you think?
I just thought you meant...
You were more like one night, I meant like a missus.
LAUGHTER
IAIN: Enough chat, boys,
cos to paraphrase the legendary Bob Marley,
I want to "Jam" up with you. Say hello to Maya "Jam"-a.
That's the joke.
# When I walk through the door I mean business
# High heels on the floor I mean business
# I told you before I mean business
# You know what came for So give me what I want
# You know that I mean business. #
Hello, hello. Hello, boys.
CHEERING
Are you all right? I'm all right.
Shall we have a little chat? Yeah, let's have a little chat.
You look unreal. Thank you, you all look good as well.
How are you?
I'm good. How are you? Yeah, buzzing, actually.
Everyone excited? Yeah, just a bit.
Be honest, how many press ups did we do this morning?
At least, like, 75. 75?
Last night...
All right, well, who's looking for love
and who is looking for a bit of fun?
I'm looking for a wifey, me? You're looking for a wife?
That's it. Shaq, have you got a type?
Erm, not specifically. I go for more personality and vibes,
but she's definitely got to be funny.
Funny is, like, top of my list cos I love it.
Haris, are you a relationship kind of guy?
I've never been in a relationship, so it's a hard one for me.
Rob, Mr Confident. What are you looking for?
For me, it's if they're a nice girl,
I just want to try all the flavours,
whatever is in front of me.
OK, have a little taste of each?
Yeah, have a taste of each and then we'll see which one
is actually a nice wifey for lifey.
Well, what are you after?
Will, what are you after?
I want to settle down. You want to settle?
Do you know what?
I think it's time to bring a girl back, introduce her to the animals.
It would be a deal-breaker if I bring them back
and they don't want to...
To stroke the sheep? LAUGHTER
Any turnoffs?
Size 5 feet.
Well, I'm out of limit, I'm a size 6.5.
OK, yeah. It's not gonna happen!
You can't be that strict about the foot size!
All right, well, I think I've found out enough.
Are you lot ready to meet some girls?
ALL: Yeah. Let's go.
MUSIC: 'Stay With Me'
by Justin Timberlake, Pharrell Williams Halsey & Calvin Harris
Well, boys, it is time to couple up.
The girls will come in one by one,
and I'll ask you to step forward if you fancy them.
Each girl will then decide which boy she wants to couple up with.
It is that simple.
So, who's ready to meet our first girl?
Bring them in. Yes!
OK, everyone, this is Tanya.
Hi, hey, boys.
Wow, she's unreal. Hello, my name is Tanya.
I'm 22 years old,
and I'm a biomedical science student from Liverpool.
I feel like when people see me
they think I'm doing something like fashion,
there's a brain behind the pretty face.
I'm very full-on when it comes to flirting,
but when it comes to actually kissing someone in the club,
I'm literally, like, oh, my God, mortified. No.
On a night out I'm definitely the last girl standing.
I have been single for 1.5 years.
I just want to cuddle, I just want a boyfriend.
Talking to multiple people is draining, it's a full-time job.
I'm super excited to get into the villa.
Boys, boys, boys, boys. I can't wait.
Tanya, you look insane.
Beautiful. Thank you.
How you feeling? I'm excited like.
SHE SQUEALS It's a bit surreal, innit?
Yeah. It's too much, honestly.
Do you like the look of the villa?
I do. It's stunning. It's huge. I haven't processed it yet.
A lot to take in. I know.
Do you like the look of the boys? Unreal.
They are all right, aren't they?
Yeah.
Tanya, as you know, Love Island is all about finding the one for you.
Yeah. You can choose to couple up with any of these gorgeous boys.
And the great news is, as you're the first girl in,
you have the first pick.
We've got Ron. Hi, you all right? Hi.
Shaq. How you doin'? Hi.
Haris. Hello, you all right? Hi, Haris.
Kai. You all right? Hi, Kai.
And Will. Are you all right?
You look unreal, by the way. Oh, thanks, Will.
However, before you make that choice,
let's make it a tiny bit easier for you. OK.
By finding out which of these handsome boys like the look of you.
Boys, if you fancy Tanya, please step forward now.
# The boy is mine. #
IAIN: The coupling up's underway, and Tanya's first to go.
So, who will make a move?
It's one small step for a man, but a giant leap for...
No, actually, it is just one small step.
I got it right first time.
Tanya, you can choose to couple up with any of these gorgeous boys.
We've got Ron, Shaq,
Haris, Kai or Will.
Before you make that choice,
let's make it a tiny bit easier for you by finding out
which of these handsome boys like the look of you.
Boys, if you fancy Tanya, please step forward now.
OK. Shaq has stepped forward. Tanya, what do you think of Shaq?
Yeah, I'm impressed. I'm impressed, yeah.
Shaq, how come you stepped forward? Just look at her.
I think it's pretty obvious to see why I stepped forward.
She looks insane.
Thank you.
Love at first sight?
Who knows? We'll see. You never know.
OK, so, Tanya, Shaq has stepped forward for you. Yeah.
But remember, the choice is still yours.
You can pick from any of the five boys
stood right in front of you.
So, Tanya, which boy would you like to couple up with?
Will it be Ron, Shaq,
Haris, Kai or Will?
Which boy do you wanna couple up with?
I'm gonna go...
..with lovely Shaq.
Off you go. Thank you.
Hi. How are you?
Good. Nice to see you. Nice to meet you.
OK, we have our first Love Island couple of 2023.
Tanya and Shaq.
Stunning. You look very, very good together. I'll be honest.
Yeah, I'm pretty happy.
OK, so, who is ready to meet the second girl?
Yeah, bring her in. Let's go.
Let's go. Let's get straight to it. Let's have it.
It's Anna-May.
Hi!
Hello. Hello.
Are you OK? I'm good. How are you?
Yeah, good, thank you.
You happy to be here? Yeah, so happy.
I can't believe were finally here. I know.
I can't
I can't believe we're finally here. I know.
I'm Anna-May, I'm 20 years old,
and I'm a payroll administrator from Swansea.
I try to make a good first impression,
but I am a proper chatterbox. Once you get me going, I don't stop.
I'll tell you anything, really.
Sometimes even my sex life, which probably isn't too great.
I once went on a date where I chatted so much
that he actually started to fall asleep at the dinner table.
I can't shut myself off.
I've been single for just over a year.
When I first became single, I was always out.
There's been a few nights
where I've kissed about ten boys in one night maybe.
I love snogging.
I tend to get obsessed with boys really quickly,
but when they start to like me back, I just get bored.
Sometimes, you just get the ick, don't you?
I like a bit of a competition, especially when it comes to I want.
All of my exes have been brown hair.
I think I might give blonde boys a chance, you know.
As you can see, we already have one couple - Tanya and Shaq.
And we have four single boys - Ron, Haris...
Hello, you all right?
..Kai... You all right?
..and Will. You all right, darling?
You can couple up with any of the five boys
standing in front of you, including Shaq.
So, boys, who fancies Anna-May?
# Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
# Thought I was lost But then I woke up in love
# But then I woke up in love... #
OK.
# Then I woke up in love. #
All right, Ron, why did you step forward?
She's got a good energy about her. As you were walking in,
I think you tick a couple of boxes already.
I like the way you look as well, obviously.
Haris, why did you step forward?
She is a beautiful girl and I think we'd make a good match.
Kai, what about you?
She's absolutely stunning.
I love how her bikini matches her lipstick.
Aw!
So, Anna-May, now the decision is all yours.
Which boy would you like to couple up with?
I would like to couple up with...
# Oo-ooh
# Thought I was lost
# But then I woke up in love... #
Kai. OK.
OK, off you go.
APPLAUSE
You OK? Hi, you OK? Hiya.
Guys, you're looking very pleased with yourself.
Guy, you're looking very pleased with yourself.
Yeah, I am. She's a beautiful girl. How can I not be?
And Ron, how are you taking that?
It's all right.
Couple of days of my chat, and she might be by my side,
she might be still with him. It's all right.
Confident guy! I love it!
OK, we have our second Love Island couple of 2023.
It's Anna-May and Kai.
And boys, you don't have to worry,
as there are still plenty more girls to come.
Are we ready to meet the next one?
Let's get it.
Everyone, this is Lana.
Hi! Hi!
This is amazing, isn't it? Yeah!
I've got a cowboy hat on the back of my arm.
Everyone kept saying it's cos I like reverse cowgirl,
cos it's on the back of my arm.
I'm Lana, I'm 25, I'm a make-up artist from Luton.
I wish I could say I always look 10/10 and glowing,
but if I'm wearing make-up, you've caught me on a good day!
I am fluent in Spanish.
SHE SPEAKS IN SPANISH:
I use it quite a lot on nights out. That's my pulling method.
My last relationship was for about six months.
That ended quite amicab... "Annicably"?
"Amicable..." SHE GIGGLES
I'm just, in general, quite a ditzy person.
I get things wrong. I'm always tripping over.
I've got bruises all over my legs. I don't know if you can see that.
I am definitely looking for someone that's gonna tick every box now.
Tall, gorgeous, someone that can cook.
My mum always says, "Get with a chef.
"They'll cook you some really nice meals."
I'm so excited. Living in a villa with loads of sexy men.
In my element, I'll be fine. SHE LAUGHS
Lana - stunning, beautiful, blue with the eyes.
It's gorgeous!
You like the look of these lot?
They're not too bad, not too bad. SHE LAUGHS
You ready to choose who you're gonna couple up with?
I think I am, yeah.
We've got three single boys. OK.
Ron, Haris... You all right?
..and Will.
You all right? I'm loving the blue, by the way.
Oh, thanks!
He's full of compliments.
But remember, you can choose to couple up with any of the boys.
Yep.
Including the ones that are already coupled up.
OK.
Before we do that, let's find out who fancies you.
Boys, it's time to step forward if you like the look of Lana.
Will, you finally stepped forward.
Yeah, so, obviously, we had the butterflies.
She looks amazing, so, fingers crossed.
And Ron, why did you step forward?
Well, look at her. She's a little rocket.
You know, my heart started pounding as soon as she walked through,
so, had to step forward for that.
There we are. Confident Ron.
Little rocket. Best compliment, here we are.
So Lana, you can couple up with Ron or Will...
or you can choose one of the other boys.
So Lana...
which boy would you like to couple up with?
I would like to couple up with...
Ron.
Lovely, off you go. Thank you!
APPLAUSE
Hi, it's nice to meet you. Nice to meet you.
You good? You look lovely, by the way.
Thank you, so do you.
So congratulations,
we have a brand-new couple - Lana and Ron.
APPLAUSE Cuties.
Lana, are you happy?
I am very happy with my choice, yes.
And Ron, you happy?
I'm buzzing. I'm absolute buzzing. Look at her.
Will, well done for stepping forward. Thank you.
Didn't quite grab her, but we've still got more to come.
Yeah, looking forward to it.
All right, single boys. This could be it.
Please meet Olivia.
Oh, my God!
# I look hot in it, I look hot in it I look hot in it... #
Hi! Hello.
Wow, this is so stunning. Oh, my goodness.
I'm not a heartbreaker, I'm a lover, I promise.
# Rockin' it Droppin' it... #
I'm Olivia, I'm 27. I'm an actress and ring girl from Brighton.
Yeah, I love ring girling. A few people slide in the DM's.
Anthony Joshua, I'm waiting.
I've been acting about six years now.
Recently, I played a trophy wife, which was so funny,
because I'm literally a cougar.
I only date younger guys.
I've never been in a relationship, but I love approaching guys.
It's just the power it gives me.
I'm definitely excited to get in the villa and meet lots of hot men.
I'll just, like, look over, give them, like, a two second look.
Oh, my God. I cringe myself out! It works.
Although, I've never had a boyfriend,
so, yeah, it doesn't work.
Olivia, you look gorgeous. Thank you, babe.
Pink for pink. Yeah, all matching.
"Make the boys wink", and all that stuff.
How are you feeling? I'm feeling excited.
Everyone looks great. OK.
So, it's time to choose who you wanna couple up with.
Yeah, let's go.
So, we've currently got three couples. Yeah.
..and we got two single boys, Haris and Will.
You doing OK? Yeah, great, you?
Loving the shorts, guys. Thank you.
Remember, you can choose any of the boys,
including the ones
who've
including the ones who've already coupled up. Ooh.
You've got lovely teeth.
So, boys, please step forward if you fancy Olivia.
# So many things that I'm afraid of
# But right now I ain't scared of nothing
# Cos all I know is... #
There they come. Haris, why did you step forward?
Yeah, she's a stunning girl and I like her energy.
If you don't mind me asking, are you a ring girl? Yes.
I'm a boxer, that's how... Oh, OK!
I think I've come across your social media before.
I like that.
Have you been in her DM's, Haris? No, no, no!
And Will?
She had great energy, really beautiful, so... we'll see.
Thank you.
Olivia, do you like farmers? I love a farmer. Why not?
Really? Yeah.
It's time to make your choice. Yeah, I'm ready.
Will it be Haris... or Will... or any of the other boys?
The power is all in your hands.
Who would you like to couple up with?
I would like to couple up with...
# Together
# It's gonna be better It's gonna be better...#
Kai. Kai! We've got a steal.
Anna-May, how does that make you feel?
A bit gutted, but I'll speak to you later. OK.
Anna-May, you come and join me, and Olivia, off you go to meet Kai.
Thank you.
APPLAUSE
Hello. How are you?
Nice to meet you.
Anna-May, don't worry.
I've got you, girl, you're with me, OK?
There's never an L on the side. No, we'll be fine.
OK, are we ready to meet our final girl?
ALL: Yes.
Please welcome Tanyel. Hi! Hello.
How're you? Good, thank you, how are you?
I'm good, thank you.
You look fire! Thank you, babe.
You look amazing too.
# Nice to meet you Enchante... #
Hi, my name is Danielle, I'm 26-years-old,
Hi, my
Hi, my name is
Tanyel,
I'm 26-years-old,
Hi, my name is Tanyel, I'm 26-years-old,
and I'm a hairstylist from North London.
I say it straight how that is.
Whatever I'm thinking, I'm very honest and direct.
I'm Turkish Cypriot.
Most Turkish Cypriot girls are fiery.
You can either handle them, or you can't.
Guys love my body, and, like, my bunda.
I've been single for about two-and-a-half years.
The last relationship I was in was about three years long,
but I was, like, going for bad boys.
Guys that tried to tell me what to do, I don't to listen.
Toxic, love it.
Now, I've
Now, I've grown up myself,
I feel like I'm going to look for someone who is more mature, funny.
Obviously, tall, handsome, muscley, but I don't like it when they are,
like, so muscley that they can't fit through the door.
Like, it's a bit extra.
Once I see who I like, I'm gonna pick who I want,
and I know I won't give up until I get it.
# Enchante. #
You can choose any one of these boys.
Whether you decide to pick Haris, Will
or any of the three coupled up boys,
it is completely down to you.
But first, let's find out if any of them fancy you.
Boys, please step forward if you like the look of Tanyel.
Oh, my goodness. Kai.
You had two, you want another one. What is going on?
It's the hair. I love the hair. It's beautiful.
Thank you.
But, yeah, just got to know as many girls as possible, haven't we?
Find out who the connection is really with.
Olivia, how does that make you feel? Yeah, it is what it is.
Tanya, are you happy with your guy so far, he's been behaved.
Yeah, he's been good, but let's wait and see.
Lana, are you happy Ron didn't step forward?
I am happy, we're pretty much married off now. It's done, yeah.
Haris, you stepped forward again, feeling confident this time?
Yeah, she is a good-looking girl. And I'd like to get to know her.
Well, is this the one? Let's wait and see.
Will, is this the one? Let's wait and see.
Tanyel, you can couple with Haris, Kai or Will,
or you can choose one of the other boys coupled up already.
OK, it's time to make your choice. Who do you want to pick?
# I took a risk on us Didn't think I'd fall for you
We broke before But made it through.#
OK, so, I'm gonna have to go with Kai.
Tanyel, you've chosen to steal Kai.
Olivia, what's going through your head right now?
I mean, it was sweet while it lasted, I guess!
A short moment together. Yeah, just a little bit.
OK, come over here, Olivia, and join me.
Take a seat.
Tanyel, off you go to join Kai.
APPLAUSE
It's all right, babe, it's OK.
It's all right. He doesn't know what he's missing.
Hi, babe. You OK?
Anna-May? Yeah.
Olivia. You look stunning.
Kai, this has been eventful for you today. I know.
You must be a little bit gassed, though. Just a little.
We still have Anna-May and Olivia sitting right here.
It's all good, so much time, so many boys. Yeah, there's options.
There's always options. Haris, you're one of our single boys.
How are you feeling? I'm all right, to be fair.
I will just have to kick it into next gear, I think.
Will, still single, you all right over there?
Yeah, I mean, it's not too easy stood next to this beautiful man,
but two beautiful ladies up there, so I know I'm gonna be happy.
Come over and join me, girls, let's get you coupled up.
You look great. It's fine.
Thanks, babe.
Anna-May, you were first to pick,
so you get first choice of the single boys.
Who are you gonna pick?
Haris. Haris, OK, off you go.
APPLAUSE
Hi, are you OK? Yeah, I'm all right, thank you.
Haris, are you happy with that choice?
Yeah, I'm buzzing, to be fair.
Obviously, she was the first girl that I stepped forward for,
so it was meant to be.
Olivia, you are our last girl, but not least.
No, no. And Will, you are our last boy, so you become our final couple.
Off you go to join him.
Thank you. Saved the best till last.
APPLAUSE
You OK? You look great.
Thank you. So do you.
Olivia, how are you feeling? Great.
He seems very funny, that's what I like.
I can't wait to get to know him.
Well, coupled up at last.
Will, coupled up at last.
It has come, I stepped forward as well, so winner-winner. Yeah.
It's meant to be.
OK, we now have five lovely couples.
Lana and Ron.
Anna-May and Haris.
Tanya and Shaq.
Olivia and Will.
And Tanyel and Kai.
Will you stay together? Or will your heads be turned?
The public will be voting for their favourite couple
throughout the series.
That couple could win a huge £50,000 cash prize.
And be crowned winners of Love Island.
But don't forget, finding your perfect match is never that simple.
Trust me, I know.
I will see you all soon, have an amazing time.
Mwah. Take care. See you later. Bye.
Bye, honeys! Bye.
IAIN: The Islanders are about to explore their new home.
Basically, it's 1,200 square-foot, there's panoramic views
and it's got a pool shaped like a massive penis.
How are you feeling? I'm good.
How are you? Yeah, I'm feeling good, too.
I'm buzzing for this. I know.
Go on, after you. Me, too.
How mad is this place? It's absolutely crazy.
Look at this. It's the colours. So bright.
The villa is beautiful. Like, I actually can't get over it.
Like, everything is just stunning.
My mind's blown, I feel like I'm in a dream, to be honest.
Oh, the bedroom!
SHE SQUEALS Stop, stop.
Oh, my God, this is me!
Where we at? We here, we here, we here.
Blue's my favourite colour as well! Oh, here we go.
Same. You're chatting shit!
LAUGHTER
Honestly, the new villa is unreal. It's huge, it's new, it's big.
Like... SQUEALS
I can't even believe I'm going to be sleeping here everyday. Yeah.
This is where we're getting a bit naughty. Yes!
This is a vibe. Bedroom and out here.
Love Island 2023! The vibe!
Let's... Yeah, we'll have a little chat in here. Let's go.
It's hot out here, isn't it? It is hot.
Little bit of shade, to be fair, so we're all right.
How you feeling? I'm feeling good.
Feeling good? Feel so weird, do you?
This is... Yeah, this is a bit surreal, innit? Yet.
This is... Yeah, this is
a
This is... Yeah, this is a bit surreal, innit?
Yeah.
This is... Yeah, this is a bit surreal, innit? Yeah.
Were you buzzing that I stepped forward and that?
Yeah, I was, actually. Yeah.
Did you have your eyes on anyone else, though? Not really.
It was between two, I can't lie, but you were my number one, I think.
Oh, there you go. To be fair, you was my number one as well.
And I stayed loyal as well.
How old are you, by the way? 25.
25, same age as me!
What's your normal type that you go for?
So, when you were up there... Yeah.
..and when you spoke... Yeah.
..that sold it for me. Really?
Yeah. Why?
I can't remember what I said.
Your, like, manner of things. Yeah.
Like, the way you are like, "All right?"
LAUGHTER
Feel like you've got, like, cheeky chap vibes.
What sort of stuff are you into? I like the simple things in life.
Like, I like chilling, I like movies, Harry Potter.
Best ever. Harry Potter.
I'm so glad you said it. I'm such a big Potter fan.
Really? Yeah.
A date for me would be a Harry Potter marathon. Yeah, same!
Like, just literally blankets, cuddling up... Oh, my God.
He is my type, he has good chat.
He's a bit of a, like, a Cockney boy like... "All right, girl?"
Like that vibe, and that is my vibe. I like... I like Ron, a lot.
Shaq's coupled up with Tanya, who's a biomedical science student.
When I did science at school, I was a straight-A student.
Every time teachers asked me a question, I'd say, "Eh?"
Tanya. Yeah?
Tell me about yourself. I'm a biomedical science student.
Oh, really? Yeah.
I've been single for, like, a year and a half. OK.
What's your vibe? What's my vibe? Yeah.
I can do either, you know. I like going out, definitely. Yeah.
But if you told me that you just want to chill inside and just...
You don't mind? Yeah, I'm happy either way.
I'd rather that, though. Especially if I have a boyfriend.
Yeah. Cuddles.
You talking about boyfriend?
LAUGHTER, SHE SQUEALS
I mean, once you... What's your point?
Once you see how I cuddle tonight, then...
We'll see? Yeah, we'll see.
Straight to the cuddles. I'm such a good cuddler, like...
I might get obsessed. Don't do that.
Interesting. Maybe I want you to get obsessed.
Hmm. HE LAUGHS
Mm-mm-mm. Mm-mm-mm.
Obviously had, like, a one-to-one with Shaq,
and it's very easy to speak to him, kind of comes natural.
It's kind of, like, flowing.
So I'm a bit like, "Oh, my God,
"this is going well, and it's scaring me!"
So, now are you looking to settle down and...
I really want to find someone. Mm.
I do. Be nice to have a boyfriend. Forgot how that feels.
HE COUGHS
SHE CLEARS THROAT
You OK? Yeah, yeah, yeah. All good.
So, me and Tanya have had that initial conversation,
got to know each other a little bit better.
And, yeah, she kind of looked even better in my eyes because, like,
she looks gorgeous, but then when I spoke to her,
got to know a bit about her personality,
she started to tick a little bit more boxes for me.
Tanyel's coupled up with Kai who's a science teacher.
I did three sciences in school.
Well, I went to science class three times,
said "eh" a lot and got kicked out.
What's your star sign?
I think I'm a Cancer. I think. Are you?
I'm not into star signs.
I think I'm on the verge, I'm on the cusp of Gemini and Cancer.
I really get on with Cancers. Yeah, I'm a Cancer, I'm a Cancer.
Really? Yeah.
Don't get me wrong, though,
you could be Cancer and you could be an idiot.
Hopefully I'm not. Yeah, hopefully you're not. But...
I stepped forward for Anna-May and you.
Yous two were the ones that caught my eye straightaway.
She is very pretty. Both of you are.
Thank you.
Yeah, so out of all the girls, you two were standing out to me
straightaway.
Are you a relationship kind of girl? Obviously I've never been in one.
So you don't know?
I've always had situations with girls, like,
so we've got along for the first two months, three months...
There's always a three month rule, I think.
Yeah, after three months, if it's not a case of, well,
I'm gonna bring this girl back home, I'm going to introduce her
to my sisters or my mum. But it's never come to that.
So, you're a farmer? Yeah, is that good?
I think so. With me and you?
Yeah. Got any tattoos or anything?
No, no tattoos. Yeah, I'm a clean sheet.
A clean sheep, did you say?
No, a clean sheet! Oh, nice.
Have you got any tats? I actually do.
You do? Yeah, it's horrible. Oh, no.
No, it's just of a P. Oh, OK. Is that a girl's initial?
Yeah, that I met on holiday.
Wait, you got another girl initialled on your ankle?
Why did you tell me that? You should have lied!
Why would I lie? Actually, no, yeah.
You can't start a relationship off with a live.
You can't start a relationship off with a lie.
Yeah, true. Ooh... Because I sometimes say...
If I lie, then it would only get out, do you know what I mean?
You wouldn't get it covered up? For you, maybe.
Oh, OK.
So, how old are you? I'm 26. How old are you?
24. So you're younger than me?
I don't normally go for younger guys.
Well, you know. There's a first time for everything, isn't there?
You look older though.
Yeah, that's what I get all the time.
You do look a lot older. Which is good.
Are you glad you are coupled up with me?
I am. Are you glad you coupled up with me?
Yeah. Yes. Good. I like the smile as well.
We will see though, if you don't piss me off too early on.
Well, I'm waiting for you to put me in my place.
It'll come soon, don't worry.
So, first impressions of Kai.
He's really confident and I feel like he made it obvious
that he liked me and I like someone who, you know,
looks quite manly, tall, muscly.
The only thing is, he's a little bit cheeky and I just feel like,
I don't know if he's going to be trustworthy.
But, who cares. There's going to be loads of people coming in.
IAIN: It's the end of an unforgettable first day
where one of the boys managed to couple up with three girls
in under half an hour.
Kai caramba! That lad's been busy...
So, what's the game plan, then? I'm going to chat to them all.
All of them? Every single one of them.
Three girls interested, and you knew it as well.

IAIN: Airport security guard Shaq
wants to know Tanya's romantic history.
Is she coming into the villa with baggage?
And if so, has she removed her laptop and any liquids over 100ml?
What's going on in your mind?
I'm like, Shaq is good looking. He's been real.
Love the hair, the smiles...
Do you know what I mean? And then I'm like...
You're making me nervous now. Yeah, I'm really feeling it.
Like, I'm feeling calm vibes from you. Yeah.
I feel like we're kind of on the same wavelength. Wavelength.
Honestly, if I'm being real, like, I couldn't be happier. Really?
Yeah, yeah. I feel like we kind of get each other.
It flows. Makes sense, makes sense.
That's the best way to explain it, it just makes sense.
That's just given me positive vibes. Good vibes.
There is definitely some sexual chemistry... Between us.
Yeah. Yeah, 100%, like. I'm loving it.
I feel your someone that I can just... I want to, like, protect.
Oh, that's cute.
No, you know what I mean? Yeah.
Your eye contact is cra... Stop! That's you, though.
That's important to me.
If a girl's got good eye contact, it just makes her even more attractive.
'She's just doing it for me.'
She's ticking a lot of the boxes, she's giving me the energy.
So far, so good. So far, so good.
What's going on, boys?
How are you two little love birds? Oh, stop!
Oi, we were looking at you there thinking, "Fucking hell!"
They look so happy. Really?
What were you gossiping about, then?
We were just saying you two look proper happy.
Really? Yeah, I saw it.
I saw you two lock eyes and I was like...
them two are gonna... Them two are gonna...
I'm buzzing, to be honest. Yeah, same.
It's making sense. Who are you coupled up with?
Er, Anna-May. She's lovely.
Tanyel.
How do you feel about your couples?
So obviously, Anna-May is nice girl.
Tanyel, Olivia...
She's nice. We opened up, do you know I mean?
We had a nice chat.
What you saying, what you saying? How you feeling?
I spoke to Tanya.
I was coupled with Tanyel. How you feel, though?
We're like oh, my God, gasp. I would not, lie, I was gassed.
Who wouldn't be, though?
Sit back, thinking yeah, yeah.
You feel
You feel like that guy, i
You feel like that guy, inni
You feel like that guy, innit?
Over at the firepit, Shaq wants to probe Olivia.
Shaq probed me at airport security one time.
He found a Toblerone hidden in my prison pocket.
Talk to me, how was your chat with Will? So... Give us the goals.
Let's go back to the coupling up.
Obviously, Kai didn't step forward for me. She stole my mam.
Obviously, Kai didn't step forward for me. She stole my man.
And, you know, I ended up with Will, but he's so lovely.
He's funny as well. He's funny.
So hold on, hold on. There's a but here.
Can I be honest, can I be honest?
No, he's so lovely, and I do want to give it a chance,
but...
he's just not my type. Hm, yeah.
If you don't feel it...
there's two sides - there's the personality which you can vibe with,
but you still have to have to have the attraction as well.
Exactly, and I just think we would be really good friends. Yeah.
Not that I want to friend zone him already, but...
Sometimes you feel. ..I think I have.
In your head you have. Yeah, in my head I have.
You can friend people off, like... Yeah.
But
it's day one.
But it's day one.
With Will, I'm kind of, like, going towards friendship,
but I don't want to, you know...
I want to give him a chance, because he's such a nice guy,
so I don't wanna cut it off completely.
So I'm gonna go in with an open mind.
I still want to get to know all the other guys too.
You two, are you open to getting to know anyone else?
I think cos we're getting on well... Yeah.
..we'll just how things go from there, but...
ALL: Aww!
LAUGHTER
You're not getting rid of him!
He's going nowhere!
'I feel good. First day.'
You know what, me and Lana, we've got quite a bit in common.
She's a really sweet girl. Like, you know, she's proper cute.
She's a nice girl, which I came in, sort of, looking for.
Didn't think I'd be in there straightaway.
Should we have a chat? Talk to me.
I took him for a chat over there.
Did you? OK. And what did you say?
Oh, we really vibed. Really? Yeah.
But he was worried with me whether, like, the age would be a thing,
cos obviously... How old is he?
He's 21. Oh, OK.
And I'm 27. And do you have an issue with it?
It's not the end of the world. No, I don't think it is.
And he seems so mature. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, for now. You know what boys are like.
And you know what, if you've got a vibe with someone,
I feel like you just need to explore it.
There is absolutely no harm in it.
I don't think Anna-May would have any... No.
Like... be arsed about it.
And, like, she's such a lovely girl, of course, but...
Yeah. He is very cute.
Yeah.
The fact that he's, like, a boxer. Yeah.
And, like, I'm a ring girl.
Yeah.
A match made in heaven.
IAIN: Haris wants to get to know Tanyel.
but cos he's a TV salesman, it's a limited time offer,
subject to availability, terms and conditions apply.
So, where's your head at?
I'm not gonna... You don't have to obviously be open
as much as you don't want to.
I'm keeping my options... I'm keeping everything really open.
I really want to get to know everyone individually
cos I want to go off personality. Yeah.
And just get to know people and see who I vibe with better.
Yeah, perfect.
Some people you just click with and some people you don't.
Do you know what I mean? I know. Yeah.
Like, and I just think you seem similar to me.
Yeah, like, obviously, when you...
Obviously, when you walked up to Kai, I was like,
"No problem. It is what it is."
I've got a type, d'you you know what I mean?
Maybe you need someone to keep you on your toes a little bit.
I'm, like, the person that...
Obviously, the looks, you've got the looks,
d'you you know what I mean?
But if a girl has that,
but doesn't have the personality, then it's a bit...
It's a bit iffy, innit? Yeah, it's a bit too...
It's a bit... Yeah, it's a bit...
Well, lucky for you I got both. Yeah, nah, nah.
IAIN: The Islanders are settling down
to their first evening in Paradise.
But, boy, are they in for a shock.
Oh, my, oh, my...
Oh, Maya Jama!
# The fire
# Burning
# Burning... #
Hi, everyone.
Oh, my God.
SCREAMING
I'm back!
Oh, my God.
Maya Jama's here.
IAIN: Maya's made a shock return to the villa to break some big news.
She could've just sent a text,
but we wanted to get our money's worth
out of that return flight to Capetown.
Hi, everyone. I'm back.
CHEERING
Oh, my God. Maya Jama's here.
Can I get you all to head over to the fire pit, please.
# It's about to get real. #
All right, how are you all?
Good. Good.
Good. I mean, massive wind machine going on, helps with the drama.
A little bit. Didn't expect to see me, did you?
Didn't expect to see you so soon, no.
Now, you haven't been here that long.
Are you all having a good time, settling in?
Yeah.
Fallen in love yet or a bit early?
Not just yet. He might have!
Well, as you know, this is Love Island
and we always say expect the unexpected,
and you never know when someone will walk through that door.
The public have been voting on who should be the first bombshell
to enter the Love Island villa. Islanders, get ready.
This is Tom.
# Oh, my love... #
I'm Tom, I'm 23, I'm a footballer from Barnsley,
and I'm definitely going to be scoring some goals in the villa.
I've been single for three months now.
There's been a few wild nights that I've very much enjoyed.
My DMs have been a bit of a scary place.
Normally, I'm a blonde guy. I'm definitely a bum guy.
First attraction, it is massive. I'm a very confident guy.
Being six-foot five, girls seem to love that.
Going into the villa, I am going to go in for what I want.
Maybe the guys might feel a bit intimidated,
maybe they might feel a bit under pressure
that I'm going to take their missus or something, I don't know.
If there's a girl I want and she is coupled up,
then nine times out of ten, I'll get her.
# Here comes, here comes trouble
# Oh-h-h
# Here comes, here comes trouble
# Oh-h-h
# Oh, I can't stop, won't stop Forget it... #
Hello, Tom. How are you, how you doing?
Good, thanks. How are you feeling? Yeah, buzzing, man.
How's it feel being stood in front of this lot?
Well, everyone looks unreal.
Girls are looking absolutely unbelievable, so, yeah.
Yeah? Liking what you see in the girls?
Buzzing. Love it, yeah. Class.
Boys, in 24 hours,
Tom will get the chance to couple up with a girl of his choice...
..leaving one of you single,
and your place on the island at risk.
I suggest you boys get grafting...
and hold on tight to your girls.
Tom, enjoy.
Thank you. I will.
I'll leave you to it, and I will see very soon.
Nice one. Thank you.
Bye.
