ITV's Love Island has had an impressive summer with more people tuning in for the first time and record breaking ratings. However, there are some things about Love Island which we can't get on board with.
The normalising of the thong-bikini, for example. And the relentlessness of the boys' six packs. To be frank, it's putting us off applying for next year's season. But hang on a minute; a summer of love could still be within reach for us more normal looking people.
The team behind Love Island is reported to be planning a new series, similar to the Love Island we know and love, but this time featuring middle-aged people with 'normal bodies'. The ITV2 show has, until now, featured mostly late teens and people in their 20s. The gorgeous, honed and veneered Ekin-Su is one of this year's oldest and wisest mentor characters, and she's 27.
