ITV open the villa doors to Love Island ‘All Stars’

Love Island returns to South Africa for the first series of Love Island: All Stars…

Familiar faces venture back into ITV’s most talked about Villa for a second chance at finding love. The launch episode, which airs tomorrow, will be transmitted on ITV1 and STV as well as ITV2 where the remainder of the series will playout.

Mike Spencer, Creative Director, Lifted Entertainment:

“It has been rumoured now for a while but we are thrilled to finally confirm that we are making Love Island: All Stars early next year for ITV2 and ITVX. It’s set to be a must watch series seeing some of your favourite Islanders from across the years heading back to the stunning South African villa to once again ‘graft’ as their search for love continues. I simply can’t wait!”

Legendary Islanders from former series will each attempt to find love once again as they crack on in a bid to couple up and avoid being dumped from the Island. Relationships will be put to the test as bombshells enter and heads turn leaving some lovestruck hopefuls heartbroken in the ultimate quest for love all overseen by host Maya Jama.

As the couples explore their connections and attempt to win the hearts of each other and the nation, only one pair will be crowned the winners of Love Island: All Stars. Since its launch on ITV2 in 2015, the controversial format continues to capture the hearts of viewers across the globe amassing over 300 million streams on ITVX this year. The launch episode of the last series also attracted over 3 million viewers across all devices.

Maya Jama:

“I’ve watched Love Island since series one so I know them all. There are some favourites and some big characters, that maybe didn’t get as much time to shine as they could have because they joined later on [in their year], so I think this is going to be a really incredible series.”

Love Island: All Stars will make its on-screen debut on Monday 15th January at 9 pm on ITV1, STV, ITVX and ITV2.
