It’s back! Our winter evenings suddenly got a whole lot brighter and we can’t wait to get to know the stars of Love Island 2023 as they couple up.
Where else can you meet a hunky farmer (Will Young), a very hot science teacher (Kai Fagan), and a hairstylist who’s phobic about milk (Tanyel Revan) – with plenty of sun, sea and squabbling thrown in? All nicely packaged in a glam £1.2million South African villa.
Perfect winter telly.
