Imagine this?!

Ahhh Love Island! The reality TV show we look forward to binge-watching every Summer (and now Winter), sitting in our PJs, pigging out on endless amounts of food whilst watching beautiful people try and find love in an over-priced villa out in a sunny country.

Well, if you think that's what is going to be happening this Summer, then you may want to think again.... Rumour has it the 2020 series of the hit ITV2 show could be filmed here in the UK, due to the current Coronvirus pandemic.

Of course, the Summer series is usually filmed out in Mallorca, with the first ever Winter series earlier this year taking place in South Africa, but due to the current travel restrictions, it's being reported that bosses are considering filming the show on home turf.

Although nothing has been confirmed just yet, we've decided to take a look at all of the possible (weird and wonderful) locations across the UK and Ireland that the show could take place.

In April, a source told Variety, "It’s believed the 2020 summer edition could shoot somewhere in the UK rather than go overseas. A similar scenario is being considered for ITV reality hit I’m a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! which shoots in Australia."

They then added, "An August to September broadcast is on the cards for the programme, as prospects for Love Island ’s traditional June-July outing seem virtually impossible given the production lockdown driven by the global pandemic."
