We're just hours away from the new series of Love Island, which starts tonight (Monday 3rd June) at 9pm, and ITV have shared a few clips from the opening episode to whet our appetite.

Sharing the first look from the villa, ITV teased fans with a 'huge twist' which awaits the Islanders as they enter.

Saying: 'The Villa doors are open and a huge twist already awaits… 👀

'Watch our Islanders step into a summer of love, tonight at 9pm! ☀️ #LoveIsland'. In the video, fans get to see the 12 Islanders looking for love as they arrive in separate convertible cars.

Host Maya Jama then arrives greeting the singletons, and throwing them straight into a game where they have to reveal who they think is the best boyfriend or girlfriend material...

Since posting the first look video fans have been leaving comments saying how excited they are. One wrote: 'Summer Has Begun 🔥😍', and Jake Quickenden wrote: 'Boys going in with the girls interesting'.

Over the weekend, ITV took fans on a walkthrough the stunning villa, so we can not wait to see the Islanders enter!

Love Island series 11 starts at 9pm tonight (Monday 3rd June). The launch show will air simultaneously across ITV1/2 AND ITV X, and STV1/2 and STV Player, the rest of the series will air every night on ITV2/STV2.

This new series is the first since Love Island All Stars in the Winter, which was won by Tom Clare and Molly Smith winning a share of £50,000.
