Yes! At least two of us.

1happyhippie · 28/05/2019 20:58

Atleast 3!
I am looking forward to it.

I've just watched the intro on ITV Hub.

Completely biased first impressions. Tommy's most my type two decades ago and Yewande's the one I'm most drawn to on initial first impressions. I would expect to have least connection with Anna.

Reporting for duty.

I think there were like, 10 Love Island threads last year in the end!

Summersunshine2 · 28/05/2019 21:08

Ooo I'm tempted but it kinda took over my life before! Good to talk about it to people in work though!
Anyone know who's still together from last year?

MissYeti · 28/05/2019 21:08

Checking in!

One of the girls is from the next town over from me. Fingers crossed she doesn't let the side down!

whatyouhavethough · 28/05/2019 21:09

Another one checking in....
I don't think any of the couples are together from last year.

PivotPivotPivottt · 28/05/2019 21:11

Can't wait Grin I'm trying to avoid reading who the contestants are I would rather wait until next week! Am I right in thinking though that it's a loud of z-list/instagrammers etc Sad

Nutkin123 · 28/05/2019 21:15

Me too! V excited but wishing they'd got more "normal" people in this time!

witchy89 · 28/05/2019 21:16

I'll definitely be checking in! I was pregnant for last years series and had to watch it on catch up the morning after because I was so knackered by 9 o clock! Might possibly have to do the same this year if little one doesn't settle down in the evening!

Sinead100 · 28/05/2019 21:17

Oh dear. I know one of the contestants. Joining this thread for lols Grin

I'm so annoyed they've gone down the route of people who are already in the public eye. Series 2 & 3 were brilliant and I believe that was down to having "normal" people. I can see it heading the same way as Big Brother if they do it this way Sad

PivotPivotPivottt · 28/05/2019 21:23

And remember when all the contestants were in awe at "I'm miss GB" and "I used to be in Blazing Squad". Now majority will have a claim to fame Sad. Sorry for being so negative I am really looking forward to it. I just had a quick sneak peak at the contestants too.

loie · 28/05/2019 21:28

Yeah, I didn't like the look of the line up. They seem to go for a similar theme every year, you can match up who looks like who from the previous season.
Last year was good but nowhere near as good as the year before with Chris and Kem etc.

My favourite was series 2 it was the first one I watched. I tried to watch series one on Netflix but couldn't get into it the same, think I'll try again.

TheRLodger · 28/05/2019 21:32

Checking in Gin only got into it last year and I’m so looking forward to it

desparate4sleep · 28/05/2019 21:34

Can't wait, hope it's a good year. Am I the only one who is glad they haven't gone for normal looking people? The hotter the better as it just wouldn't work.

JaynePoole · 28/05/2019 21:42

I'm so annoyed they've gone down the route of people who are already in the public eye.

Really? I'm completely not the right demographic for this programme.

I've just taken a look at their instagram accounts. Some are really depressing :(

jay55 · 29/05/2019 11:25

I'll be watching and judging (myself) and cringing.

unique1986 · 29/05/2019 17:13

Yes shame they go for the same types every year.
Fake chats too.

Nutkin123 · 29/05/2019 22:06

Totally agree PivotPivotPivottt (amazing username too) - series 2 and 3 were the best!!! Far too many "insta famous" people on now (or want to be)

MoominMantra · 30/05/2019 10:55

Yep love it!

Fedoratheexploreer · 30/05/2019 10:58

Checking in, my favourite has been series 2. Not sure how I feel about this year. I think it’ll just be people after fame and not love now.

MoominMantra · 30/05/2019 10:59

The relationships very rarely seem to last longer than a few months when they get out though.

forevercurious · 30/05/2019 14:44

Checking in ready for the series to begin! I keep thinking it won’t be as good as the previous series but within a few days I’ll be hooked!
