has anyone voted for the initial line up yet? :biggrin:

i did mehdi and catherine, ruchee and andre, molly and mitchell, jess and george, and ella and tyrique

i think the first three are perfect for each other (although ruchee and andre might be better suited as friends but we'll see) and then the last two couples was just random

Meet The Islanders


NAME: Ruchee Gurung
AGE: 24
FROM: Sutton
OCCUPATION: Beautician

WHY ENTER THE VILLA? I'm single and looking for love, and it's the perfect opportunity for me to find someone. I'm a relationship kind of girl, but so far it's not worked out for me.

WHY DATE ME? I'm really caring, when I'm with someone I'm all about them. I'm also really loyal and love doing nice things for the people that are special to me. My love language is gift giving, so I'm a real giver when it comes to relationships

NAME: Tyrique Hyde
AGE: 24
FROM: Essex
OCCUPATION: Footballer

WHAT WILL YOU BRING TO THE VILLA? I'll bring vibes, confidence, good energy and honesty. I don't sit on the fence, if I have an opinion I will speak up. I'm also not afraid to go after what I want

CLAIM T0 FAME? Toby Aromolaran is one of my best friends, we grew up together and were in the same class at school

NAME: Molly Marsh
AGE: 24
FROM: Yorkshire
OCCUPATION: Actress

WHY LOVE ISLAND AND WHY NOW? I think it's ideal timing and the perfect way to find someone.

I don't go out and party and I don't use dating apps, I'm actually quite old-fashioned, so there's no better way to meet someone than by going into a Villa in the sun with the potential 'one' in there.

NAME: George Fensom
AGE: 24
FROM: Bedford
OCCUPATION: Business Development Executive

HOW WOULD YOUR FAMILY DESCRIBE YOU? I'm the first person to bring the vibe up, I'm always dancing, I'm always the one who wants to go out. My go-to dance move is what I call the Dad Dance, I'm gonna bring dad jokes and dad dancing to the Villa.'

NAME: Catherine Agbaje
AGE: 22
FROM: Dublin
OCCUPATION: Commercial Real Estate Agent

HOW WOULD FAMILY AND FRIENDS DESCRIBE YOU? Someone who is fun and a loving character. They know I have so much love to give.

I'm always smiling, I'm always happy, I'm always laughing. You'll always see me with a smile on my face.'

NAME: Mehdi Edno
AGE: 26
FROM: Bordeaux/London
OCCUPATION: Communications Manager/Model

ARE YOU READY TO FIND THE ONE? Yes. I've been busy for the last few years with work, and doing my Masters degree but now I'm done with the busy schedule, and ready to find love.

THREE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS TO HAVE IN A PARTNER? Looks are important but they aren't everything, a good sense of humour and someone who is outgoing and up for an adventure is what I'm looking for.

NAME: Ella Thomas
AGE: 23
FROM: Glasgow
OCCUPATION: Model

WHAT'S YOUR CLAIM TO FAME? I've been in a Headie One and Burna Burna Boy music video and I was once an extra in World War Z. I was 12 years old when I filmed it and got to meet Brad Pitt which was cool.

WHY SHOULD SOMEBODY DATE YOU? I'm the whole package, I know what I want in life and I've got a big heart.

NAME: Mitchel Taylor
AGE: 26
FROM: Sheffield
OCCUPATION: Gas engineer

WHY SHOULD SOMEBODY DATE YOU? I thrive on being a gentleman. I'll shower you with flowers, I'll take you on dates, I'll fill your bedside drawer with your favourite sweets and chocolate. I've been single, I've had my fun and now I want to settle down.

WHY ARE YOU SINGLE? I'm just really picky. I've got to find the girl that I want to marry and have kids with. I'm nearly 27, I don't want to play the field anymore, I want to find the one.

NAME: Jess Harding
AGE: 22
FROM: London
OCCUPATION: Aesthetics Practitioner

WHY ARE YOU SINGLE? Because every boy is giving me the ick at the moment. I feel like it's fate because I'm saving myself for Mr Right in the Villa!

WHAT GIVES YOU THE ICK? When a guy stunts for money, that's an ick. Showing off all their designer clothes because most of the time they're probably fake anyway! Another one is when a boy runs for the train and the train goes without him. Lunch Boxes also - just go to Tesco and get a meal deal!

NAME: Andre Fury ado
AGE: 21
FROM: Dudley
OCCUPATION: Economics graduate and clothing brand entrepreneur

WHAT WILL YOU BRING TO THE VILLA? I'm charming, I'm going to bring good looks and some language lessons. I'm going to teach the other Islanders Portuguese, Spanish and a little bit of Creole. I think I've got every slice of the pie.

DO YOU FALL IN LOVE QUICKLY? I would say I fall too quickly to be honest. When I look at beautiful ladies, before I've said hello to them I've already fallen in love. I'm already planning the wedding.

I missed interacting with you guys. I got busy with uni, so I didn't have time to watch the last series. I can't even remember who was in the last series or who even won it.
Based on the new Islanders so far - and this is basing it on the "eye-test", the girls look better than the boys. I've also realised that a majority of the contestants for this series are quite young.
I don’t like how the public paired the couples up again I would have rather seen them naturally work it out anyway let’s see how things go :smile:

The producers seem to want to create drama for the views then receive ofcom complaints
Initial assessment: “Molly is a sweet one”.

Hopefully, I am, unless another one enters the villa. She is a farmer’s daughter which is a plus.
