Love Island extended tonight for Casa Amor's 'explosive' recoupling

Love Island is set to be a little longer than usual tonight for Casa Amor's recoupling. The stick or twist element of the show will air on Thursday, July 7 and sources say it's "one of the best episodes" ever filmed.

During last night's instalment viewers were told the recoupling, which will see the original Islanders either choose to stick with their current partner or move on with a bombshell, was on the horizon, but as presenter Laura Whitmore entered the villa to begin the proceedings the show cut to the credits. The move left many viewers furious, you can read more on this here.

However, fans of the ITV2 show will be treated to an extra five minutes of airtime tonight as the contestants finally make their decision. Over the last couple of days viewers have watched as Dami Hope and Jacques O'Neill have got closer to new girls Summer Botwe and Cheyanne Kerr, while Andrew Le Page has been torn between Coco Lodge and Tasha Ghouri.

Meanwhile, over in Casa Amor, Tasha has been conflicted over her feelings for Billy Brown and Andrew Le Page, while Indiyah Polack has also been getting to know Deji Adeniyi.

Ahead of tonight's recoupling, a source close to the show told The Sun: "It's one of the best episodes of Love Island ever filmed. It's really explosive - viewers will be shocked at how much drama kicks off tonight.

"There are tears, rows, heartbreak. In eight series, there has never been a more explosive show. Fans should cancel plans to stay in and watch - it's that good."
