Love Island (2015–…): Season 9, Episode 1 - Episode #9.1 - full transcript

Hotel Oscar Tango,

Maya Jama on board,
requesting clearance to land.

It's a new year...

in a brand-new villa.

It's a stunning location ready for
some sexy singles looking for love.

All we need now are some Islanders.

# 24/7, on my mind
Day and night, all the time

# You ain't even by my side
Yeah

You got me infatuated

# My body reacts, reacts... #

Get ready, Britain.
It's time to grab love by the horns.

# My body reacts. #

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 are 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.

You'll be popping that, bro.
I don't know how to pop that!

I actually can't take it in.

Respect.

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.

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.

It's Shaq time.

You've gotta
get a quick pump in, man.

This is where I'm gonna take
whoever I like

for a the private workout
in the morning.

I can do a nice little
circuit with a girl.

If that comes into play,
it's game over, 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 three years.

There's no girl that's ever
turned me down, I kid you not.

The girls 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 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?
I've never...

You don't really count!
Yeah.

I see a few girls for a few months
then it dies down all the time.

It never, it's never that
next step, do you know what mean?

Are you a relationship guy,
or, like, what are you?

Well, I've been single
for about two years now.

Two years?
Yeah, for 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

# We don't

# 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. Crazy.

I can't wait to meet these girls.
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 the 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 a 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.
Ron, nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you, bro. 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...

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!"

Gotta play on your words,
gotta use it to your advantage.

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 they're 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.

D'you reckon you're
gonna 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 say it's quite risky,

but you've been 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.

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.

'Celestial'
by Ed Sheeran

# You make me feel
Like I'm drunk on stars

# And we're dancing out in space

# Celestial

# Oh oh-oh-oh

# Celestial

# Oh oh-oh-oh

# Celestial. #

Yes, lads, what are you saying?
What's going on? Oi! Oi!

How are you doing, mate?
I'm good, thanks.

Get this down me,
I've not had a bev for ages.

Yeah, 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.
Kai, nice to meet you.

What's your name? Kai. Shaq, man.
Nice to meet you.

Ron. 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.
So...

I've been
single for about 18 months.

Single life's been good,
I absolutely love dating.

Delegate every
Friday night to a date.

I believe in playing the field

because you gotta 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
that time.

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 am going to make sure
I'm getting the girl I want.

I'm looking for a wife here.

How are you feeling about the birds?
Bruv!

Exciting, man, innit?
Oh, mate, I've been buzzing.

What's the oldest
that you'll go to?

I'll go for about 40.
Whey!

What?! 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.

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.

Are you all right?
Yeah, 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?

This morning and last night.

All right, well,
who's looking for love

and who's 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. The craic.

Haris, are you a relationship
kind of guy?

I've never been in a relationship,
so it's a hard one for me.

Ron, 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.
Will, what are you after?

I wanna settle down.
You want to settle?

Do you know what? 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...

Don't wanna stroke the sheep?

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 down to the foot size!

I think I've found out enough.

Are you lot ready to meet
some girls? Yeah. Let's go.

'Stay With Me'

by Justin Timberlake, Pharrell
Williams, Halsey & Calvin Harris.

# I said, "Just turn around"

# They say it's dark
But what do they know? #

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 'em in.
Yes!

OK, everyone, this is Tanya.

Hi, hey, boys.

Wow, she's unreal.

Hi, 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,

but 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 a 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 a year and a half.

I just want a 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, boys.
Fit boys. I can't wait.

Tanya, you look insane.

Beautiful.
Stop! Thank you.

How you feeling?
I'm excited, like...

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 so huge.
I haven't processed it yet.

So much to take in.
I know.

Do you like the look of the boys?
Unreal.

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. #

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
likes 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 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 who 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.

You OK?
Hi, you OK? Hiya.

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.

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..."

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.

I'll be in my element, I'll be fine.

Lana - stunning, beautiful,
blue with the eyes.

It's gorgeous!
D'you like the look of these lot?

They're not too bad, not too bad.

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.

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!

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.

Cuties.

Lana, are you happy?
I am very happy with my choice, yes.

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, 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 DMs.

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, the 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.

Wow. 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've got two single boys,
Haris and Will.

You doing OK?
Yeah, great, you?

Loving the shorts, guys.
Thank you. Very nice.

Remember,
you can choose any of the boys,

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 all...
Oh, OK!

I think I've come across
your social media before.

I like that.

Have you been in her DMs, 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.

Hello.
How are you?

Nice to meet 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?

Yes.

Please welcome Tanyel.
Hi! Hello.

How are 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 Tanyel,
I'm 26 years old,

and I'm a hairstylist
from North London.

I say things 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 try and tell me
what to do, I don't to listen.

Toxic, love it.

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

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
till I get it.

# Enchante. #

You can choose
any one of these boys.

Whether you decide
to pick Haris or 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've 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, pretty much married off
now. It's done, yeah. Steady!

Haris, you stepped forward again,
feeling confident this time?

Yeah, she's a good-looking girl.
And I'd like to get to know her.

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.

It's all right, babe, it's OK.

It's all right.
He doesn't know what he's missing.

Hi, babe.
You OK? It's All right.

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 been 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.

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
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.

You OK?
You look great.

Thank you. So do you.

Olivia, how are you feeling?
Great.

He seems very funny,
and that's what I like.

I can't wait
to get to know him more.

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.

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.

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!

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!

Honestly, the new villa is unreal.
It's huge, it's new, it's big.

Like...

Can't even believe I'm going to be
sleeping here every day.

This is where we're getting
a bit naughty. Yes!

This is a vibe.
Bedroom and out here.

Love Island 2023! You're 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?

Yeah, this is
a bit surreal, innit? Yeah.

Were you buzzing
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'd 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 manner of things.
Yeah.

Like, the way you are like,
"All right?"

You've got, like,
cheeky chap vibes.

What 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?

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.

I might get obsessed.
Don't do that.

Interesting.
Maybe I want you to get obsessed.

Hmm.

Uh-um-um.
Uh-um-um.

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.

Are you OK?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. All good.

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.
Hopefully you're not.

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, wow,

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 lie.

Yeah, true. Ooh...
Because I sometimes, like,

I sometimes say it's...

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.

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-karumba! That lad's been busy.

# Is all I believe.... #

So, what's the game plan, then?
I'm gonna chat to them all.

Huh?
All of them.

Yeah, every single one of them.

Three girls, all interested,
and you know it as well.

That's until they speak to me
and realise how fucking boring I am.

# I close my eyes now... #

What's your guy's name again?
Ron. Ron Weasley.

He likes Harry Potter,
and so do I. Aw. So cute.

Wehay!

I can't lie, I'm excited
to get into bed tonight, man.

Whoa! I was chatting to Tanya,
yeah... Oi, oi, oi!

I told her I'm a cuddler,
so we, like, got that in place.

I like a cuddle.

# Here we lie all alone
Am I dreaming?

# Your heart's smooth
My soul is unbelieving

# Now you see the me
And I'm feeling, I'm feeling... #

It's mad, innit? We've never met
before and we're here, bro.

Your relationships probably grow
so quick in the villa.

Yeah, bro. Like, are you mad?
You're gonna be with us 24/7, bro.

I'll be dropping the L-bomb
in a couple of days.

In a couple of days?
Yeah, love it!

How are you feeling
with Haris, then?

He is my type,
but then he's not at the same time,

do you know what I mean?
Yeah.

# Here we lie all alone
Am I dreaming?

# Your heart's smooth
My soul is unbelieving

# Now you see the me
I'm feeling, I'm feeling

# I feel your hands, your lips
The heat of your body

# Whisper you love me
Say you love me

# Please just love me down

# And never leave me
I'm a dreamer... #

Cheers to the first night
in the Love Island 2023 villa.

Oi, oi!

What you think about
the guys after,

like, seeing their personalities?
You know what?

We've got such a good bunch.

I'm sorry, but Will, I literally
think I'm gonna wet myself laughing.

He is so funny. I did not expect
that from him, not at all.

He's so funny.
He's actually fucking hilarious.

I caught a glimpse of it,
and that's why I chose him.

I was like... Oh, no.
I didn't choose him, he chose me.

Awkward.

Boys, what are we thinking?

What's the plan
for tonight, then?

Lana's number one for me.

I think, Olivia,
cos of her energy. Yeah, yeah.

What are you saying, big Shaq?

Obviously, Tanya
is still top of my list.

But Tanyel is just...
She's divine, man.

Bro, she's...
You know what it is, yeah?

I love a girl that can dance.

And then when she got in the middle,
yeah, I was like, rargh!

Tanyel is... leng.

But, mate, Anna-May, mate,
she's still up there.

And also Olivia. Mate.

So, it's three, bro.
I'll still get to know them,

but it's them three
I want to get to know.

Come on. Where do you want to go?
Shall we go on the beds?

Do you wanna go up there.

It's a bit windy up there,
we'll go on the beds.

Tanyel stole Kai
at the coupling up,

will anybody ever forgive her?

Olivia may,
and who knows, Anna-May may.

Which one, pink or yellow?
Pink.

OK, let's go.
Make ourselves cosy.

I just wanted to grab you for a chat
because obviously, when I came in...

At the re-coupling.
I was a bit like, "Oh, God."

You know at the start
when you're like,

"I don't know
if I'm gonna like this girl?"

Really?
Yeah, but you're lovely.

Obviously, when I came in,
it's just like initial attraction.

Of course. And you've got to.

I wanted to make sure we were sweet.
Oh, my God, yeah. Yeah.

I love your confidence, by the way.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I love it.

He didn't even step forward for me.

I don't know whether he did it
because he was just comfortable.

Yeah.
You know what I mean?

I don't trust him.
No, neither do I.

I just think... I think, like,
if someone else came in now,

like, his head would turn
straightaway. Million percent.

I think he would give a lot of girls
a chance.

I don't...
Yeah, I don't know.

I know it's the first day,
but I'm just like...

Yeah, wary.
..wary.

I know what you mean. But Tanyel's
got to figure it out for herself.

Yeah, I know what you mean.
Like, think his head will turn.

I've spoke to Haris.
Yeah.

He was probably, like,
my second choice. OK.

Cos I think I fancy Kai the most,
and then Haris. And then Haris.

And then maybe Ron.

OK.

Yeah, we've definitely got
the same type.

I think we do.

But as long as we're open
and honest. Of course.

Here's Harry Potter superfans,
Lana Lovegood and Ron Weasley.

If Harry Potter lawyers
are watching,

that's Lana, not Luna,
and Ron's got two Ns.

Obviously, relationships,
feelings and stuff,

are you quite an open person?
I think I am, you know.

You are?
What's the point in not being?

Like, I'd rather tell you the truth.

I don't see the point
in, like, wasting time.

I'm one of them, a bit of
a hopeless romantic, I must admit.

Are you?
Like, proper.

When I'm in, I'm 100%.
That's nice to hear.

I am. And the thing that's failed me

is that no...
the other person never has been.

So, I feel like I give my all and...
Yeah. Don't get it back.

It just doesn't really...
yeah, get reciprocated.

To be honest, I don't think
anything I've gone through

has hindered how I feel.
Because I just think I am who I am.

Yeah. And I'll never stop
putting my, like, heart on my sleeve

or whatever.
It's the best way to be.

I can't stand it
when people play games. Yeah.

That's what I'm done with.
No.

Me and Lana, we've had
some real good conversations.

She's a really sweet girl.

Like, you know, she's proper cute.

Which I came in
sort of looking for.

That's so crazy that you're a boxer
and I'm a ring girl. Yeah.

At least you, like, get it, though,

cos some boys can be a bit, like,
intimidated by that kind of thing.

I've never been in that situation,
you know, like,

where a girl's
sort of turned me down,

do you know what I mean?
But I was like...

Don't feel like I rejected you
or turned you down in any way.

No, that's fine.
That was purely based off looks.

Yeah, looks is like...

But, like, I'm vibing with you now
and we can click. Yeah, yeah.

Do you know what I mean?
Way more. Yeah.

I've never had a relationship.
I've never been in a relationship.

No-one's ever, like,
gone back to my house. Really?

I've never introduced anyone
to my mum or dad. No, me neither.

Are you ready to settle down?

I'm not a player.
I'm not one of them that goes,

"How many girls have you kissed?"
in a club. Yeah.

If I was to get with someone,
it would be quite big,

it'd have to be serious,
it'd have to be the one. Yeah.

I'm one of them in a club, like,
we'll look at each other...

Yeah. Do you know what I mean,
we'll have a look.

The eyes. Yeah, the eyes.
The two-second look. Yeah.

Me too. Give me the eyes.
I'm gonna turn around,

and you've got to give me the look.
Ready?

That is so good!

Cos obviously, you are 21,
but I'm not gonna make that a thing.

You're good-looking. I think
as long as you're like, mature...

Yeah, mature, that's a big thing
for me, because I am. Are you?

I'm not one of them,
trust me, I'm not.

Maybe we keep a pact
to not mention the age.

Yeah, no problem.
OK.

What are we, like, pinky...?
We'll pinky promise.

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.

I can't deny, so far, so good.
So far, so good.

What's going on, boys?

How are you two little love birds?
Oh, stop! Ha!

Oi, we were looking at you there
thinking, "Fucking hell!"

You two look so happy.
Really?

What were you gossiping about, then?
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's a nice girl. Er, Olivia...

we had a nice little chat,
d'you know what I mean?

She's nice. We opened up, do you
know I mean? We had a nice chat.

What you saying, Kai?
What you saying? How you feeling?

I spoke to Tanyel.

Obviously, I'm coupled up with
Tanyel. How did you feel, though?

Were you, like,
"Oh, my God, gassed"?

I'm not gonna lie, I was gassed.

Who wouldn't be, though? I'm stood
there, thinking, "Yeah, yeah."

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 goss.

Let's just go back
to the coupling up.

Obviously, Kai didn't step
forward for me. She stole my man.

I took a risk.

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.

Be honest, 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.
In my head I have.

You can friend people off, like...
Yeah.

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...

Aww!

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.

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.

The fact that he's, like, a boxer.
Yeah.

And, like, I'm a ring girl.
Yeah.

A match made in heaven.

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 you don't.
Do you know what I mean? Yeah.

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.

Maybe you need someone to keep you
on your toes.

I'm the person that...
Obviously, the looks,

you've got the
looks, d'you you know what I mean?

If a girl has that, but doesn't have
personality, it's a bit... Yeah.

It's a bit iffy, innit?
Yeah, it's a bit too...

It's a bit...
Well, lucky for you, I've got both.

Yeah, nah, nah.

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!

# I am the fire
Burning

# I rise with the flames

# I am the fire
Burning. #

Hi, everyone.
Oh, my God.

I'm back!

Oh, my God.

Maya Jama's here.

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. Oh, my God!
I'm back.

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

# You know the deal

# 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
and 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 for what I want.

Maybe the guys
might feel a bit intimidated,

maybe they might feel
a bit under pressure

I'm going to take their
missus or something.

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

# 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 does 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.
