Love Island fans thrown by Iain Stirling's comment in opening voiceover

As with every series of the hit dating show Love Island, the narration is provided by Scottish comedian Iain Stirling. With his classic puns and witty sense of humour, Iain is a fan favourite and has become a household name thanks to the show.

However, one comment made in last night's episode (January 16) was questioned by many viewers and had them heading for Twitter to voice their thoughts. Iain was introducing this year’s brand new villa in the opening scene when he said: “This is the perfect place for some serious fun in the sun and in just two months time one couple will be walking out of here with that £50,000 cash prize.”

The confirmation of the timeline raised a few eyebrows, with some fans surprised by how long the series will stretch out for. Showbiz journalist @TooManyEmmas tweeted: “Iain Stirling just said two months. Two months of this. This will take us to Paddy’s Day. God speed.”
