The reality dating competition is finally headed back to our screens.
ITV have released a zany new trailer for Love Island 2021, in which the general public go utterly delirious with excitement for the return of the smash-hit dating competition.
It's been well over a year since new episodes of the UK version graced ITV2, as plans for a fresh series last summer had to be scrapped due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Fortunately for fans, the broadcaster has been able to safely orchestrate a new edition this year, keeping the iconic Love Island villa in Mallorca but moving much of the behind-the-scenes production to the UK.
The latest trailer, which will air on television tonight before The Masked Dancer final, sees Laura Whitmore sound an alarm reading: "In case of Love Island: Crack on."
This sends everyone in the surrounding area into an absolute frenzy, with an abundance of eggplants and peaches being dropped, beanbags falling from the sky and an all-out flash mob gathering to celebrate.

The teaser ends with the arrival of narrator Iain Stirling who assures the crowd: "This is not a drill!"
"I think they missed us," he adds, as the end card promises "spanking new" episodes of Love Island on ITV2 this June. Check out the full clip below:
Whitmore and Stirling, who are married in real-life, will be overseeing this year's series in the roles of presenter and narrator respectively, with the rumoured line-up of Love Island 2021 contestants yet to be confirmed.
If previous years are anything to go by, we can expects a diverse mix of social media influencers, each with their own distinct types, expectations and strategies as they head into the villa.
