Love Island: All Stars to air Thursday after wildfire evacuation

Love Island: All Stars is finally set to return to screens this Thursday after a dramatic delay caused by nearby wildfires. The show, originally scheduled to launch on Monday, was postponed when cast and crew were evacuated from the villa as a safety precaution.

Presenter Maya Jama confirmed the new date in a social media clip, joking about being in her rollers and heading to film. 'Love Island: All Stars is back,' she announced, with the first episode airing on ITV2 at 9pm on Thursday, 16 January.

Due to the delay, an additional episode will air on Saturday, and all episodes will be available on ITVX. The show's official account had previously stated that health and safety was the priority, leading to the postponement.

This year's all-star lineup includes former contestants from series 4 to 12, such as Belle Hassan, Ciaran Davies, and Millie Court. As is tradition, further 'bombshells' are expected to join the villa to stir up drama.
