New Love Island contestant mocks West Country accent - then attempts it

Fans were left stunned as new Love Island new contestant Ekin-Su Culculoglu made a shocking attempt at a West Country accent while on a date with Andrew Le Page - including the little known phrase ‘ooooh there’s a pineapple under the sea.’ .Fans took to Twitter to give their verdict when Ekin-Su made her fairly appalling effort and were surprised that she seemed to think a major theme of West Country life is all about pirates.

As they chatted on the sofa Andrew said to Ekin-Su: “How are you settling in?” Ekin-Su replied: “I’m good I really want to get to know you - where you’re from, what are your hobbies.”

Andrew replied: “I’m from a little island called Guernsey then I went to school in Somerset.” Ekin-Su saw her opportunity and stormed in saying: “Sommmmmerrrrrsetttt.” In a rather poor West Country accent.
