All language subtitles for Stranded On Honeymoon Island (2025) S01E01

On the other side of the world,
far from the distractions of home,

12 singles looking for lifelong
love...

I've tried the dating apps,

I've tried meeting people
organically. I've tried everything.

It's not worked.

..are getting married and embarking
on honeymoons like no other.

I am so ready to be stranded

with someone who should be
my perfect match.

# I swear to God I'll survive

# If it kills me to... #

..to discover if isolation
can succeed

where modern dating has failed.

If this crazy, amazing way
of finding someone doesn't work,

then there's no other option.

Stranded on six deserted beaches...

Is this it?
I'm miles out of my comfort zone.

Argh!

There is absolutely no way!

I feel like we're going to have
to have the poo chat at some point.

..as couples who barely
know each other...

I'm banging my head
against a brick wall.

It's clear just how different
we are.

Hopefully,
it doesn't turn into a nightmare.

..with nowhere to run.

But he just keeps saying
he needs space.

I think it's just being on top
of each other all the time.

I feel disgusting,
and it just doesn't feel like me.

Throughout their stranded journey,
mystery crates will wash up...

What is that box,
floating in the sea?

..to test their compatibility...

Ooh!

Developing intimacy
in your relationship.

The nurse is here.

Your mobile phones. Give it to me.

If I'd seen this profile,
I would have passed.

What the hell?

Commit or quit?

This is mental.

..as they navigate
the adventure together.

Couples Cove. Oh, my God!

There's no spark. That's so gutting.

Is this the man I want to spend
the rest of my life with?

Will they thrive in isolation
and find love?

I'm so grateful I'm here,
doing this experience with you.

Not only are you what I want,
but what I deserve.

You think I'm funny.

Or will they flare out?

It wasn't instant attraction for me.

You're an absolute idiot.

He's an arsehole.
It's definitely emotional.

I see you as, like,
a little sister, almost.

In a relationship, I need that.

It's just really difficult.

Let me finish!

Is that a flare?

Oh, my God! Babe! Babe!

What the hell is going on?!

If they can make it through
this together,

they can make it through anything.

This is Stranded
on Honeymoon Island.

I'm ready to find my husband, if I'm
in love with him and it feels right.

Every love story has a beginning...

I'm looking for a knight
in shining armour.

..and this one started with me...

Hi!

..when a group of singles,

selected by our matchmakers for
having just the right amount

of chemistry, compatibility,
and sheer blind optimism...

Hi!

Oh, my days! Yay, it's Davina!

..were brought together for a
one-of-a-kind speed-dating event.

You guys, I'm so excited!

For some of you, this event
is where you are going

to meet your future husband.

Let's go. Pssh!

Some of you will be meeting
your future wives.

Yes.

I've got goose bumps,
while I'm saying this.

But this is a social experiment
to see if relationships

can thrive in isolation,
when it's just the two of you,

leaving the distractions
of modern life

and all of the usual
home comforts behind.

Number 14. Yes?

What's going to be the biggest
challenge, do you think, for you?

Like, a razor.
Oh, my God.

I'm not having hairy legs.

Like, that will freak me out.

No mirror?

No, stop. It's too much.

So, listen, this is quite an extreme
and crazy way to find a loved one.

Why are you doing it?

It's kind of the best way
to date someone.

You're going to see their bad parts
and good parts in, like, full force.

And number 10, what do you think
you'll find most difficult?

I've got a morning routine.

Like, every morning, like,
I go to my garden

and I'm, like, in my boxers.

And I do, like, my...
I do, like, my stretches.

Wait, wait. You can still do that.

You'll, you'll...
You'll just be in a very big garden.

But I'm personally looking forward
to the morning routine.

So, thank you. That's all right.
I'll be watching that. That's great.

Well, it all starts here.

You're going to get five minutes
with each person, to find out

everything you
want to know about them.

After the dates, you get to
write down all of your feedback.

And then our matchmakers
will take all of that into account,

and they will then decide
on the final couples,

who are going to be heading over
to Honeymoon Island.

Unfortunately, not all of you

are going to get
the chance to be stranded.

But for some of you,

the next time you meet one of those
dates will be on your wedding day!

So, are you ready?

ALL: Yes!

So, the next time you see me,
there will be a ring on this finger.

Good luck.

It's becoming more real now.

As a person who has never
speed-dated before,

I'm a little bit nervous.

Who's mine, then?

Our speed daters must
use their time wisely...

I don't have a date.

I think you're with me.

..to get straight to the point.

Do you want to have children?
Yes.

Let's go and make a baby!

Oh, sorry, sorry. What are you
looking for exactly, then?

Perfection.

So, do you fancy me?

Yeah, you're beautiful.

See number 12,
he looks like Superman.

Yeah, I like looking at him a lot.

I don't know, like...

Number 7's really sweet,
the conversation was flowing,

but she's not my usual type.

From 142 dates...

..just six matches will be made.

You've got really nice eyes.

They're very sparkly.

Those deemed to have
the strongest connections...

Oh, no!

..will soon be stranded together
on Honeymoon Island.

Obviously, physical attraction
helps.

You are huge.

You're, like... You look very glam.

I love how you're going,
very glam!

I was... No, I...
"You look very glam."

There's all this ambience around us,
all these lights and walls,

but my attention is focused on you.

Are you staring at my boobs?

No! I'm not, no.

What's one of your good
hidden talents?

Hidden talent? Talent?
Oh, I can throw conkers.

Although asked for their impressions
on each date,

they won't discover
who they'll be honeymooning with

until their wedding day
on the other side of the world,

without even knowing their name.

Hi, how are you doing?
Are you all right?

Hello. I'm good, thank you.
I'm Number 24.

24. Sorry about that.
Yeah, I'm, er... That's OK.

I was sort of... Everyone went to
their table, and I was here, like,

"Oh, um, my date's done a runner."

No, sorry. I'm just a bit nervous.

Don't worry. Look, do you want to
hold my hand?

Yes! Look, ready? Take a moment.

I've got sweaty hands, but I'm doing
all right. I'm doing all right.

Yeah, that's fine. That's fine,
same. OK, what do you do for fun?

So, I like techno.
I like house and techno.

Sorry.

I love a rave.
I love a rave, babe.

So, you're into, like...
You're into, like, house music?

Yeah, I'm a going-out girl
but I want to party with my man.

They've picked... They've picked
you for me, then.

Oh, is that right?

I am a party girl. It's in my blood,
it's in my DNA.

Front-left, having it up.

That was really cringe, that.

Why did I put my hand up?

Oh! I just knew that would happen.

Generally, when I'm out,
I'm with the girls.

Don't get me wrong,
I like men looking at me.

But to then go and talk to them,
it's just not something I would do.

So, in my little
romanticising world,

this is how I'm going to find love.

My family's in Romania.
I can't speak...

Ooh! Is it Romania, where there's
a really lovely spa?

Spa? There's Dracula's castle.

Oh, OK. No, yeah. That's not quite
the spa that I was thinking of, no.

No.

Number 24 ticked all the boxes.

We're vibing.

He is very handsome.

When was your last relationship?

Well, I've actually been
single for six years.

The last relationship that I had,
there was an ex in the mix.

And then, brr!
He just cut it off.

Since then, I've sort of been scared
to be introduced to someone new,

knowing they might do
a complete 360 on me.

But I'm turning 30 next year,
and I see that as a new chapter.

I just feel like it's the right
place, it's the right time.

Oh, out with one, bring in the new.

Hello.

And I really want to go into that
new chapter with a new man

and a new start.

You can call me number 16.
Number 16.

I'm from East London.
What about you?

I'm from South East London.
OK, cool.

So, what are you going to do
on a Saturday and Sunday?

I'm going out with the boys.
We're going to the pub.

Yeah. Maybe go out?
And you guys, do you go...?

Yeah, go and see what happens
after that. OK, cool. Right.

What about you? It will probably get
a little bit messy.

I am a bit of a party girl.

Are you front-left or front-right?
Front-left, always.

OK, I know you're a raver, then.

Only ravers say that.
So, I have a full-time job.

Yeah. And then I've got
a swimwear brand. That's very,

in the very early stages
of, like, launching.

Right, right. I've got my own
fashion start-up,

so I know what it's about.
Oh, amazing!

OK, what sort of vibe is it?
Streetwear? What is it?

I make casual suits. What?

No, that's sick.
I like your outfit, by the way.

Thank you so much.

I'm really attracted to number 24.

We've got similar interests, and
I think she's got a vibe for life.

You're very handsome, though.
Thank you.

Just to... Just to give you
your little piece. Appreciate it.

Give me my flowers.
Yeah!

With number 16,
Mr Suit Man, he's lovely.

He, like, dresses well,

and he's got, like,
a quirk about him.

However, I've still got more to go.

Lovely to meet you.
You look beautiful.

Thank you, you're very handsome.
Thank you.

Number 15? I'm 24.

Yeah, nice. What's your type?

You.

Oh, really? That's interesting.

You're very handsome, I do fancy
you. Thank you, thank you very much.

I've not told anyone
I fancy them yet.

I'm going to take that as a win.

No, that is a win.
You've got very nice eyes.

Do I?

The size and how, like, glassy
they are. Oh, OK, thank you.

I use eye drops.

Lovely to meet you.

I feel like 15 was vibing with me.

Bye. Bye-bye.

There was that initial attraction
straight away, there. Yeah.

The flirting is very, very intense.

I feel like tossing a coin
at this point, because I thought

I would come into this process
and probably only like one, if that.

Bye! Bye.

Bye-bye.

I'm nervous about potentially
marrying one of these guys.

I don't know who's going
to turn round at that aisle...

..but I am actually really hopeful.

Like all our couples
heading to Honeymoon Island,

Hannah has no idea who's waiting
at the end of the aisle.

But once the vows are said,
there's no going back.

Three weeks, stranded together.

This means everything to me.

This is the first moment
of what could be forever.

This moment is going to
go down in my history.

I hope, hope, hope that it's the man
I want at the end of the aisle.

After the dates,
two has turned to one.

I am literally blinkers on.

The love of my life is Suit Man.

Please.

He's a party boy from East London.

He's got a creative start-up brand,
I have a creative start-up brand.

It just makes sense.

It's him or nothing, really.

I'm going home, if not.

Please...

It's Suit Man, it's Suit Man!

Hello!

How are you?
I'm so happy it's you.

I'm so happy it's you, too.

Did you think it was going to be me?
I was hoping it was going to be you.

Same. What's your name?

Hannah. Hannah, I'm Sam. Sam.
Nice to meet you.

I love him, I love him!

Um, I mean, I don't love him,
but I do.

You look stunning. Thank you,
so do you. Is this your suit?

It is. Yeah, I was hoping you'd wear
your suit.

Oh!

I couldn't be more happy.

Over the moon.

You've got very nice eyes.

You look so pretty.
Thank you.

I'm so gassed, I'm so gassed.

I'm so happy it was her
walking down the aisle.

She is absolutely stunning.

How are you feeling?
Oh, just bricking myself.

Are you? Yeah. I feel a lot more
settled, now you're here.

Hello, Hannah and Sam.

Argh!

My name is Wenly, and it is my
honour and privilege to stand here

before you, as you embark
on your island adventure together.

Although this marriage is not
legally binding,

you are making a meaningful
commitment to each other.

Soon, there's going to be
a ring on this finger,

and it's something I've always
wanted, but not in my wildest dreams

did I imagine, six months ago,
that this would happen.

Hello! Hey, mate. How are you?

I'm good. How are you? I'm good.

My parents divorced
when I was seven.

It's definitely impacted
my view on a relationship.

How are you feeling
about everything?

It's obviously incredibly daunting.

I feel like, if you marry
someone, you should really believe

that's the person you're going
to be with forever.

I definitely want that forever
person. That's what I'm looking for.

That soulmate, let's say.

I think I'll definitely struggle
with being stranded.

Being in someone's company 24-7 is
going to be a real challenge,

but I can't wait to be completely
distraction-free

at a very early stage
of a relationship.

That bit excites me.

You might fall in love!

Yeah, I hope so. That's the plan.

So, what do you think
you're looking for?

Like, I mean, I've always been
attracted to a little bit of chaos.

So, some chaotic energy is good.

No, no, no, no. It's a bit of spice.
You need that.

You want a bit of spark.

Yeah, spark and spice is good.

Chaos is not.

Just slightly unhinged.

No!

I think I am ready to be a husband.

This is huge for me.
This, this means everything.

It's a pretty unhinged thing to do,
but you know what?

I'm here for it.

Hannah, I now invite you
to share your vows.

Thank you so much.

Would you like to hold my flowers
for me? They really stink.

Thank you, OK.

Whilst a little unhinged of us,

I want to start by affirming
that you and I...

Thank God!

..are exactly we are meant to be,
at the right place

and at the right time.

Brace yourself.

I'm free-spirited,
caring and courageous,

but I'll be honest.
I'm a walking contradiction,

who either feels like I'm
too much or not enough.

I'm ditzy, and not always
the sharpest tool in the box,

but my intuition and emotional
intelligence seem to always

land me in the right place.

This next chapter of discovery is
a big one, level three,

and I'm officially inviting you,
as my plus-one,

to not just the party,
but the afters too.

Woo! Let's go.

Thank you.

Her vows were beautiful.

I felt really comfortable.

Sam, would you please read yours?

With Hannah,
she seems like such great energy.

She's come to the altar with
the same energy that she had

in the speed dating.

Oh, this is fun.

It's hard to write vows
about someone I've only just met,

but the fact that we're both
standing here tells me

that we're cut from the same cloth.

I believe there's two types of love.

One that feels like home,

and one that feels like you've
put your finger in a plug socket.

I'm looking for someone that
can give me both. Mm-hm.

I haven't found it yet, but I'm
hoping that might change today.

So, here's what I can promise you.

I'll be honest with you, always.

I'll communicate,
even when I don't know how.

I'll put in the effort,
especially on my worst days.

I'll support you, not just when you
need it, but also when you don't.

This might be the most
unhinged thing I've ever done,

but I can't wait to do it with you.

That was beautiful.
That was very good.

And unhinged. Clearly, cut from
the same cloth. Innit? Yeah.

That was lovely.
You may now exchange rings.

Oh!

You're going to have to...

You're going to have to get it
over my fat knuckles.

Ugh! Give it a push.

I might have to spit on it.

Hello!

I'm a wife! I'm a wife.

The fact I'm a wife to the man
I wanted it to be,

it's all worked out in my favour.

You may now share your first kiss.

Thank you, I'll kiss you back.

Thank you.

I've got myself a wife!
Can't stop smiling.

I'm over the moon.

Congratulations, and good luck.

Thank you so much!

Woo! We done got married!

Yeah.

Right, we've got to walk slowly.

Wedding day done, Hannah and Sam
set sail for their honeymoon.

Someone pass the bubbly.

Woo!

This is the life, baby!
To my wife!

Cheers to us.

Cheers to us, babe. To my wife.

To my husband.

What a rock star way to get married.
Like, just the two of you on a pier.

Oh, literally, literally.

Straight on a boat,
into your honeymoon.

Can't get that in London.

Woo! No,
we're going to get along just fine.

Ooh...
Oh, look, it's our beach.

Oh, that's ...

That's our home.
That's our new home.

One deserted beach
cut off by miles of open sea,

and two slightly unhinged people
about to jump head-first,

quite literally, into married life.

Honestly, I cannot wait to be
stranded on a beach with Hannah.

No doubt, we're going to have
a pretty wild time together.

I have no fears, I have no concerns.

I knew what I signed up for.

I'm just so glad
I get to do it with him.

Hopefully, we can find that nice
balance between having

lots of fun
and also building a deep connection.

I'm really excited to see
where this goes.

Oh, my goodness!

It's some crazy dream
that's going on at the moment.

Hopefully, it remains a dream
and doesn't turn into a nightmare.

We've made it.

Oh, that jump was hardcore.

Do you know what? The jump?
The jump was the easy part.

It was the... It was the almost
drowning in my dress.

No, you did really well.
You did really well.

Thank you for helping.
You did well not to panic.

Hannah and Sam will be stranded
for the next three weeks.

No electricity,
soaring temperatures,

and little more than bugs
for company.

And they don't know it yet,
but that's just the start of it.

What do you reckon?

This is ours? What?
I can't believe I'm here.

This feels surreal.

The sound of crickets and the sea,
it's so beautiful.

Why did they put your name first?

I love that.
I love that my name is first.

I mean, I don't know if it's the
cute little Hannah and Sam badge

as you walk into the entrance, but
straight away it kind of feels like

our little home, and I hope
it stays that way.

This is going in our future home,
on the door.

On the door? Yeah.

Like, we're already doing quite,
like,

first home things that you would do.

Is it hot? Is it actual
running water?

Oh, that is dreamy. Get in here.

My turn? Argh!

We've had a shower together.

I mean, yeah, we're moving
pretty fast, actually.

Ooh!

He's whipped his top off, and looks
great, and I'm just like,

"Oh, God. Damn, I look like
a hot mess."

Which one are you having?
You can choose.

There's definitely a spark between
me and Hannah, for me, anyway.

Going to put it up?
Oh, yes. Oh, my God.

Babe, this a moment that
I missed out on, the engagement.

Do you want to be my wife?

No, the...

Don't, because I'll actually cry.
Right, here in return...

You can cry on me in return,
it's OK.

Yeah. King, as my new husband,

I welcome you to the world of
absolute chaos and mayhem.

Mwah!

Hannah's got a great energy.

There's probably a little bit
of chaos in there,

which can be a good thing
and can be a bad thing.

It's too early to say yet,
whether it's good or bad, but...

Yeah, I mean,
it's what I've asked for.

So, I've only got myself to thank.

Now that our first couple are safely
stranded in paradise...

I've never done speed dating before.

I've never done speed dating before,

because I think they're always,
like, murderers.

Exactly, exactly.

..it's time to find out
which of our wedding wannabes

will be walking down the aisle next.

Do you believe in mermaids?

I want someone that
I can just be weird with, you know?

I like you a lot.

How you doing?
Nice to meet you.

How's things? Pretty good.

How about you? Yeah, good,
thank you.

You look nice. Thank you.

You look nice, too. Thank you.

What would be your ideal weekend?

I used to live in The States,
so I'm like a beach person.

Hot. Oh, really?
I was born in America.

Oh, really? Yeah.

What were your favourite
things about it?

I like the sun, I like the beaches.

I'm not going to lie, there's some
pretty American girls there.

Yeah.

Number 5 is beautiful.

Normally, I prefer women that are
more kind of feminine-presenting.

All right, babe. Well ...
It was lovely to meet you.

Really nice to meet you, too. Yeah.

Hopefully, get to meet you again.
Yeah.

Number 29, she's a lovely girl, but
initial attraction is big for me.

Hi. Hi.

I go for, like,
more feminine blonde girls.

So, um, yeah ...

Babe, shall we do a cheers?
Shall we do a cheers?

Yeah, shall we? Yeah.
I'm shaking.

Oh, you're OK. I've got you.

I've got you. I've got you, babe.

I always introduce myself as
Helen, Essex girl, raging lesbian.

I've been single for a year.

It's been a...
It's been a dry year.

What's your normal type? I just like
someone who's, like, funny.

Like, a laugh. Yeah, but what about,
like, fancying them?

Yeah. Of course, yeah.

Cos here's my thing, I want a laugh
and everything, but like,

if I don't want to rip their clothes
off and, like, get freaky...

Yeah, yeah. Cos I'm...
Did you say get freaky?

OK, girl.

I've tried dating in so many
different ways.

Being set up by friends, dating
apps, with the endless swiping.

There is no relationship
I haven't tried.

But I still had something missing.
The lesbian tingles.

If this can't work, I don't honestly
know what else to do.

You look really nice, by the way.

Thank you,
I appreciate that. You look great.

Do you like the fit?
The fit is really...

Is it fitting? It's fitting.

I like the hair.
The hair looks nice.

Thank you. Yeah, looking good.

Thank you. Yeah.

There's a lot of freak in here,
all right? Yeah.

You're making me wonder what
your kind of freaky is.

Number 5 is right up my street.

I love someone who is
a bit trendy, like,

really looks after themselves,
and she's definitely giving that.

Nice to meet you.

Number 23, she's a vibe.

Um, I think
there could be potential there.

Hello! You look great.

Thank you. The blue's really nice.

As soon as I saw you,
I felt relaxed. Really?

Because I thought you'd got
a really good energy.

That's nice! Yeah. That's so nice.

Number 23 is really pretty.

The chemistry is there, immediately.

My parents are English,
but I grew up in Spain. Right.

So, I speak fluent Spanish.
Incredible. That's really hot.

Um, but I normally leave that
towards, you know, like,

going on a second date.
Yeah, play it down. Yeah.

Are they still there?
They're still there, yeah.

So maybe you'll be able to come
to Madrid with me or...

Oh, yes! For the weekend,
or for a holiday?

We can definitely go to Madrid.

29 is so cute.

Just really wholesome, lovely vibes.

I really think she's attractive.

I'm looking for someone that's like,
like a dominant femme?

Sure. Someone that can tell me
what to do.

In all areas? Yeah, yeah.

OK.

She is definitely flirting with me.

She's giving me...

You know, she's giving me the eyes.

I like to wear the trousers.

That's good to know. Important
information. It is, actually.

Hopefully see you again.

I'm at this point in my life,
where I am ready for my wife.

I'm ready to be married,

but there's a lot going on
in my life at home.

Hi, everybody!

There's a lot at stake.

It's just sunk in that you're going
to have this big day,

and Graham and I are not going
to be there, you know?

Yeah. Give her a little cuddle,
Graham. Yeah, no...

Me and my brother
are only a year apart.

But during 2020,
he was diagnosed with, um...

Sorry.

Diagnosed with terminal
brain cancer.

And off the back of Graham's
diagnosis, my mum was really poorly.

Um, she's actually currently
in chemotherapy for a...

For breast cancer.

As long as you're happy,
we're happy.

You know, you've got all...

You've got all of these different
parts of life.

And if you're happy, that's...

That part of my life is happy, too.

Oh, Graham.

I think, with everything that's
going on with my brother,

with my mum, you know,
it really gives me

such a passion to just grab
life by the...

Can I say, "by the balls?"

I've left a lot at home.

Thankfully, I have so much support.

My mum, my family, my friends,
they are pushing me to be here.

So I'm really just hoping that
I find the love of my life.

This is insane.
I feel like a pirate.

I've just got to trust the process.

Whoever I'm meant to be with,
I think, is waiting for me today.

Breathe, even if you
can't in your corset.

It would be lovely for there
to be sparks straight away.

But ultimately, I need that
emotional connection, that depth.

It's so important to me.

Hi. Hello!

That was the longest walk
of my life.

You look amazing.

Yeah, you look gorgeous.
You look really fit.

You look really stacked
from the back. Thank you.

I was like, OK.
You look stacked from the front.

What's your name, babe?

I'm Helen. Helen, Abby.

This is wild.

It is. It's crazy. This is really
crazy, isn't it?

I feel like there's instant buzz.
She's confident.

She's, like, a bit, like, flirty.

A bit... You know? Oh, my God.
I'm so excited.

It's beautiful. Babe, like, look.
I know, it's lovely.

What on earth...?
I'm just looking here.

Some might say
I'm a player on and off the field.

Come on!

Back in the day,
I got a little name for myself,

getting with other girls
on the football team,

but I'm definitely putting
those days behind me.

I've been single
for around a year now.

Previously to that,
I was with my ex of three years.

She wasn't ready to settle down,
and I was.

So, ultimately,
that kind of ended our relationship.

So, then...

..stranded? Yeah, stranded.

Married.

I just don't want
to mess around any more.

I do want to find someone
who's ready to settle down.

I want a family, and I'm ready
to find that partner.

I'm ready to find that person that
I want to move forward with.

I wonder what she's going
to be like?

It's so nice to,
like, meet you-meet you.

Oh, you look so great.

Thanks. Want to hold my hand?
Yeah, I'm shaking a bit.

I got you.
Hello, Helen and Abby.

Hello. Hi.

This is the side of the bed
I sleep on, by the way.

No, that's not OK. Oh...

Today marks the start of
a bold and brave journey.

I am inviting you to please
share your vows.

OK, let's hear what you've got
to say. Who's first?

What's your name again? Helen.

You bitch.

Helen, I promise to make you
laugh, care and support you,

on this crazy journey
we're about to embark on.

I promise to be open and honest,

and give you my all into building
our relationship together.

I love life, and I can't wait
to spend this time with you.

Here's to happiness and good times,
stranded together.

That was really good.

Helen, would you please read yours?

Yes.
Hi, it's nice to meet you again.

I'm Helen. Helen.

Marrying a stranger on the other
side of the world

is a bold move, even for me.

And no, this isn't
a traditional love story -

but traditional has never really
worked for me, anyway.

I don't know
if we're a perfect match,

and I can't promise that this will
always be easy,

but what I can promise you,

that from this moment on,
I have got your back.

I promise to laugh
when things get awkward.

To remind us both to take a breath,

if we're arguing about
how to cook a fish.

And when the waves crash
a little bit too loudly,

and we're both wondering what
on earth we've got ourselves into,

I will be by your side, regardless.

Thanks, babe.

This experience isn't for everyone.

But being with you on this crazy,
spontaneous adventure,

I feel like I'm exactly
where I'm supposed to be,

and I can't wait to make our own
version of traditional together.

Perfect, that was great.

Well done, babe. Well done.

Helen,
would you please put this on Abby?

Pretty crazy to be married.

If you'd have said a year ago,
would I be stood here today?

Er, I would have never thought that.

No, I'm just...
I'm embracing the experience.

I feel happy, I feel excited.

And, yeah,
just feel amazing right now.

You may now share your first kiss.

OK. Come here.

Thank you.

Congratulations, and good luck.

Thank you. Woo! We're married.

I'm married, I'm married!
I'm married!

You're my wife.
I know, it's a bit wild.

The idea of being stranded with this
one person, my wife,

it is scary, but I am so excited
to get to know her.

Well, that was crazy, wasn't it?

That was insane, yeah.

What have we just done?

I'm really glad that it was you.

Yeah, I'm frickin'
well happy it's you.

I was like,
"I hope it's the fit blonde.

"If it's not,
I'm just not going to be happy.'

Babe, hut. I see a hut.

I don't know what this
experience is going to be like.

I can't even really imagine.

Are we going to get on?

Are we going to fall in love?

Can't believe we're doing this.

I know, but are you ready?
I'm ready. Let's go.

Babe, can you imagine us
surviving here for three weeks?

No. I know.

This is wild!

This is us, you know?

What I'm a little concerned
about is how open this is.

I know. I don't know how you are
with bugs?

It's day one, and I'm unsure about
some of the things in our house.

I don't want to get bitten up.

Yeah, I'm just hoping that
I can cope with it all,

to be honest with you.

Abby may be doing her best to
steer clear of the creepy-crawlies,

but our London speed daters
are hoping they do get bitten...

..by the love bug. Do you like dogs?
I do, I have a dog.

Do you think people who
don't like dogs are psychopaths?

I do! I can hear an accent.

Are you Australian? I am.

Like, no offence,
but I just thought lately, like,

"Why aren't men funny any more?"
No offence!

What part of the burger
would you be?

Hmm...

I'd be the bun.

I'm going to say, the meat.

Oh! Red flag.

Ooh...

Right,
let's get this show on the road.

I'm Mae. Originally from Mansfield,
but now living in London.

I could never see myself dating
a guy from Mansfield.

Like, completed it, mate.

Hello! Yeah. How you doing?

Mwah, mwah.
So, what do you do for fun?

Um, dancing. Yeah, I like to dance
a lot. What kind of dance?

Um, like, jazz, commercial.

Yeah, yeah.
Oh, I like that.

Would you go dancing?
I would, yeah.

Will you dance now?
What, right now?

I'd say I have a larger-than-life
personality.

I do just embrace my inner diva.

Brr, brr!

I'm fully aware that I'm quite
a high-maintenance person.

My skincare routine,
my anti-wrinkle straw.

This is a full-time project.

Oh, I've got a bit of fluff
on my lip now, sorry.

See, this is what I mean by that
high-maintenance routine I've got.

So, we could do a...
Do you know what I mean?

Oh, yeah, you've got a bit of
rhythm. That's a good sign.

Number 10, he's definitely got
a cool vibe about him.

Um, not my usual type.

Then we'll do a twirl, yeah?
And then can you dip?

Dip?

No, I don't think
we're at the dipping stage yet.

We'll get there, we'll get there.

So, my last proper boyfriend,

unfortunately, there was
an accident...

..where he fell

into his colleague's vagina,
and...

No, um... Yeah, he basically left me
for his colleague.

However, I'm still like, "No,
there's someone out there, surely?"

I still believe in love.

I just want someone who's romantic,
thoughtful, considerate, fun,

has a silly side,
but knows when to be serious.

I don't want a clown,
I've been to enough circuses.

Ambitious, hard-working.

God, my bar is high, isn't it?

I'm just waiting for someone
to come and sweep me off my feet,

and tell me
I'm the object of their desires.

Hello. Hello!

Lovely to meet you. You too.
Mwah.

Do I have lipstick on
my teeth, about there? No.

Oh, you smell good. You too.

Yeah? Number 9?

Yeah, maybe you're the one I need?

I run a property development
company and an enst...

A what?

An estate agency.

Oh, OK.

I went to an all-boys' school.

I blame that for the reason
I can't chat to girls.

Where are you from?

I'm from Edinburgh, Scotland.

Oh.
Yeah, it's a lovely place.

Not the warmest, but lovely.
Yeah, yeah.

I don't have any flirting skills.

I just stare them down,
into their soul.

So, does that work?

Clearly not. I'm here.

Would you say you have a type?

Just good-looking, yeah.

That's the vibe I'm getting.
Are you vibing?

What star sign are you?

I'm an Aries.

OK.
Yeah, I'm quite laid-back.

Yeah, we'd get on well. So, what...
What are you? I'm a Sagittarius.

They do say,
not to toot my own horn,

but the Sagittarius female
is the top-desired one.

Oh, really? Yeah, people either want
to be with them or be them.

So, you know. No, I can...
I can see that, I can see that.

Whew! Are you a girl's girl, then?
Oh, yeah.

Yeah, I'm a girl's girl.
All right, that's a good thing.

I like to... I just like to have
fun all the time.

It's one of the big traits
I look for in a girl.

Oh, no! I'm not ready.

Well, I really enjoyed that.

Good luck with the rest
of your other dates.

You don't mean that. Huh?

You don't mean that. No, no.
You're like, "Come on!"

It's been three years
since I've been single now.

I don't think I've met the one yet,
because I've not allowed it...

..but 30's fast approaching.

I want to really focus on getting
married, having kids.

I'm ready to take that next step.

The time is now.

Hello!

Hello! I'm going to come this way.

Oh, oh... What are you, 25?
Hello, 25! Number 8.

Mwah. How are you? Not too bad.
Yourself? Good.

Yeah, I'm good, thank you.
Your accent is gorgeous.

I'm sure you hear that all the time.
Oh, really?

A Scottish accent is my favourite
accent in the entire world. Is it?

Give me your strongest Scottish
accent that you've got in you.

No. Please. I can do it.

Right, go for it.

Aye, pet, do you want some haggis?

Yeah, that's what
we say all the time, to be fair.

So, like, you're bang-on.
Yeah, yeah.

Do you have a kilt? I do.

Oh, my God. What's your tartan like?
I've got two tartans, actually.

Right. Is one, like, party, one
business? One is the party kilt.

And then, if it's...
Oh, it is? Yeah, yeah, genuinely.

Yeah, everything's...
Everything's just hanging out.

Hanging out.

There's a spark between
number 25 and I.

There's eye contact,
there's an intensity.

You can, like... You can feel,
definitely, a connection between us,

which is good.

That was lovely.

Well, it was lovely to meet you.

Vibes were very good with number 8.

Mwah. Five minutes
isn't long enough.

I know. It speeds by, doesn't it?

We had a great laugh,

and if we were stranded on an island
together, it'd be fun.

Number 9, we just connect on both
physical and emotional

and friendly...
Like, every level.

I'm feeling really excited,
to be honest.

But it's obviously
quite nerve-racking,

because you don't know
who you'll be with.

And the last thing I want
is arrive on the island,

and then we want to kill each other.

Not ideal.

The prospect of being stranded

and marrying someone I've only met
for five minutes is quite daunting.

I'm hopeful that it works.

I think personality is massive.

The nerves are really starting
to kick in now.

I have no idea
who's coming down the aisle.

There's a couple
that I'm hoping that it's them.

So, fingers crossed.

Being stranded with someone that,
like, I hardly know...

I have no idea who it is.

If we see this though
and come out on the other side,

we're going to be unbreakable.

Hello.

Wow, you look beautiful.

Whew, that is a relief.

Oh, I know. What's your name?

Moray. Moray?

What is your name? Mae.

Mae? Yeah.

Whew! I'm so...

I'm so relieved to see you here.

Yeah, me too.

Oh, I feel better now.

Hello, Mae and Moray.

It is my honour and privilege to be
conducting your ceremony today.

Mae, would you please start?

Thank you.

Do you want me to hold that?
Oh, yeah, you have it.

Right.

If I've manifested this right,
number 25 is standing in

front of me, proof that
the universe truly has my back.

But some things are so good,
you don't even know to ask for them.

That's, that's me.

I bet you're wondering,
why is a smart, funny, beautiful,

yet humble girl standing here?

Well, buckle up, buttercup.

I'm an over-sharer.

I wear my heart on my sleeve,

and with that comes the courage
to be vulnerable.

I've been through some tough times
when it's come to love.

It's not that I was too much,
it's that they weren't enough.

I believe in love,
because of the way I love.

I promise to be the most loyal
person you've ever met,

to love you with the biggest,
purest heart,

to be your partner in crime,
your biggest cheerleader,

and if you've got a half-decent
sense of humour,

I should make you laugh
a few times a day too.

I'm looking forward to watching you
go from a stranger to someone

I can't imagine my life without,
to falling madly in love,

and finally receiving the love
I deserve, because I am ready.

That was beautiful.

Thank you. That was beautiful.
You like that one? Yeah.

Brought a tear to my own eye.

Moray, would you please read yours?

I will. I'll take that for you.

I should have gone first,
after that.

I vow to never steal the covers.

OK.

I promise to never
lose my temper with you.

OK.

I promise to always be your GPS,

and even if I take us
in the wrong direction,

I'm sure we'll enjoy the journey.

Yeah.

That is the vows, that is the vows.

Short and sweet, like yourself.

I think I did all the talking
on that one, so it's fine.

Yeah, you did. There you go.

Couldn't believe how long
her vows were.

I think I've got the first
making-up to do already.

You may now exchange rings.

Ooh!

Left hand, please, sir.

Give it a good push.
That's not coming off.

Yeah, she's on now. Lock it in!

There you go.

Feeling relieved.

His eyes were exactly how
I remember.

They were so sparkly,
and I was like, oh, my God!

You may now share your first kiss.

But Moray's vows were a bit
shorter than mine.

I am maybe a little bit worried that
he might not be as open as I am.

Basically, I want him
to be able to put his all into this,

all the way through,
and see what happens.

Congratulations, and good luck.

This way. Watch your feet.

Maybe you should carry me?

Oh, you want carried?
Yeah, right.

I'm feeling very excited,
and very relieved at the same time,

that the girl I was hoping for
has come down the aisle.

Mae ticks a lot of the boxes.

She looks so beautiful, and there is
a spark, and the chemistry is there.

Do you want to put me down?

No, it's all good.

The weddings are done,
vows said, rings on.

Now, the real adventure begins.

I feel like I'm walking the plank.

Kind of worried that there's
not much going on here.

Yeah, I thought there'd be, like,
more, like, coconuts or something.

Yeah, I'm more concerned
about where the shelter is.

Where's home?

I think I saw it over there.

Ow! Watch your feet.

I know, I ought to make some shoes.

Is this it?

Yeah, the bed's smaller
than I thought it'd be.

Do you like fruit? I like champagne.
OK.

How are you with, like, bugs
and stuff?

Because I'm not seeing any net.
I'm fine with bugs.

It's snakes I don't like,

but I don't think a snake would be
able to get up here.

I think it could.

They're, they're pretty strong.
Are they? Yeah, yeah.

They can...
Takes one to know one, eh?

It's just
been a short period with Mae so far.

But even in that space,
she has got that banter.

Three couples,
three beaches, three weeks.

Sounds so straightforward,
when you say it like that.

But remember, they've only got
the clothes on their backs.

I want a drink, but I want to get
out of this corset a bit harder.

So... Harder?
OK, babe.

And food that's probably older than
all of them put together.

Oh, God. There's a lot of tinned
produce. Oh, it's dirty, look. Yeah.

No, I'm a bit concerned
about all this.

Yeah, I really don't fancy
eating any of this,

I won't lie. Tinned food.

Come on.

No, this could go so wrong.

Right, ready? Ready?

Oh, my God, it is.

Fixing that hammock is job
number one for Sam,

but let's not talk
about job number two.

No.

Oh, no.

No, I'm not feeling that.

This is kind of making me
rethink this whole thing.

What's the water for? Babe,
why is there a water bucket?

No?

What does that mean? Water or sand?

I don't know.

Oh...

I feel like we're going to have
to have the poo chat at some point.

No, that's too far.
Too far.

And do you know what? I've never had
the poo chat with a man.

Is that it?
Are you actually joking?

I don't think I know what
I've signed up for.

I don't...

I just feel like I've been
in denial the whole time.

Now I'm here, I'm like, oh, shit.

It's a little bit chilly!

Have to do it old-school.
Back, sack and crack with one soap.

I don't... I don't know why...

Honestly, my decision-making skills
at the moment are being questioned.

Ow! Do you want a piggy-back
or something?

I'm really heavy, though,
with this dress on.

Three, two, one.

Hang on, almost there.

Oh, this is more like it.

Quite energetic.

She's 100% on everything.

It is so remote, isn't it? Yeah.

Can you help me?
Is anybody out there?

I do worry that, two-to-three
weeks in, if I'm not feeling

the best - hangry, all that -
it might irritate me a little.

Help!

This scares me, for obvious reasons.

The great thing about being
a lesbian relationship is that

there's no pink jobs/blue jobs, OK?

That stuff is divided equally,
fair and square.

Yes! Yes, babe! Yes, it's on fire.

It's on fire, babe. It's on fire.
Babe, you've done it!

Come on, come on, come on.

Yes! Oh, my God, babe!

You're like a lesbian Lara Croft.

I do fancy Helen. She is a fun
and flirty girl,

but I do ultimately think, like,
we just bounce off each other.

We have the banter,
we have the flirty side of things.

It's amazing, really.

Um, I'm well happy about that.

Did you ever think you would do
anything like this?

Get married like this,
and have this sort of experience?

No, never.

But, yeah, I...

I took a leap of faith with it,
and I'm happy that I did.

Um, because...

Yeah, I do want to find my person.

I do want to find the one. Yeah.

I'm just really happy that
I got to meet you

and I got to marry you, and I'm...

I was very surprised
about how I felt.

Right. I think
when I turned around...

Yeah, I was in the feels
a little bit, I can't lie.

Straight away, she's making her
feelings very clear, which is,

like, so sexy, right?

But I'm also like, it's day one.

And so, I'm wondering, like,
is that genuine?

Which I think, in the back of my
mind, is setting off alarm bells.

I guess I'm just better
at communicating now,

because I would never...
I would never tell someone

that I liked them that quick,
let me tell you that.

Really? Yeah. Mm.

I'm just trying to stay open,
because the vibe between us

is, like, electric, and it feels
like it could really be something.

What do you want for dinner
tonight, babe?

Chicken luncheon meat?
Yeah, can't wait.

I've been craving it all day.

My new home, it's actually lovely.

As someone who goes glamping,
I would pay to stay in that.

Been a big day, hasn't it?
Been a long day.

We've got a double bed, we've got
curtains around the bed,

a shower and... Pfff,
not these bloody insects.

Get it.

I was trying to be positive,
but it's breaking.

It's breaking.

The toilet isn't...
Isn't great, is it?

It's not ideal. Mm-mm.

But apart from that, I think
we're, like...

I think we're winning. I think this
is the honeymoon from dreams.

I think we're good. Yeah, so far.
So far, so good.

Me and my new wife are getting on
really, really well,

but we've got something to discuss.

I've made a big commitment to her
that I'll always be honest,

and it's just a bit
of an elephant in the room.

Hopefully, she responds to it well.

I also got thrown a massive
curveball in the speed dating.

In one of the last rounds,
I walked into the room

and my ex was sat at the table,

which was just like...

As you can imagine, like,
"Oh, my days."

That's the worst possible thing that
I could have ever imagined.

Hello. Oh, my God.

How are you? Surprised?

Very much so.

It's my ex-girlfriend.

I am shocked.

I was not expecting to see her.

So, how... How come...

How come you decided to find
yourself here?

Looking for love, number 16.

We ended amicably.

She's a really lovely girl,

and I don't really have a bad word
to say about her.

You look good. Thank you.

You do look really good. So do you,
so do you.

I obviously find Sam
incredibly good-looking.

Whenever I see him,
I'm just like, "Pfft, OK."

I'm not certain that the ship
has sailed with him.

See you later.

I am still open to my ex, Sam.

Firstly, I just wanted to let
you know that that had happened.

It was a blindside to me,
as much as it is to you.

Sam has just broken my heart,
actually.

It's kind of tainted
this beautiful beginning.

His ex-girlfriend has been involved,

and I just want to know how
involved, because I'm not

going to compete with potentially
unfinished business.

You said, you didn't know
she'd come to speed dating.

Mm. But did she know
you were coming?

I let her know that,
"Look, I've signed up to this."

For me, it felt like the respectful
thing to do.

Just, like, how much in the past
is that?

Like, when did you guys actually
break up?

We... Put it this way. We've been
broken up for longer

than we were together.

That doesn't answer the question,
Sam.

We broke up six months ago.

As someone who's been
single for six, seven years,

I feel a bit cheated
going out with someone,

if they've just got
out of a relationship.

The last guy that I was seeing,
he was with one girl

and got with me, like, soon after.

And he reassured me, over and over,
that, you know,

she was very much in the past,
he never wanted to be with her.

And he did... He went back to
his ex, like after,

and I think was seeing her
the whole way throughout.

And I was actually the, the...

In the triangle that
I never wanted to be in.

I mean, I don't think you can ever
be completely, completely closed.

Like, I think if you've ever been
with someone, it's...

You feel different
if they walk in a room.

It's like my worst nightmare,
on a day I'm already feeling,

like, anxious and nervous.

Right now, his ex-partner
is not here.

However, I know myself,
when confronted with your ex,

feelings can come back.

I absolutely did not come here
to be part of a love triangle.

I guess time will tell.

I'm ready for love.

This is going to be
my forever husband.

Oosh! He's just not my type.

I see you as, like,
a little sister, almost.

That's, like,
a bit of a punch to the stomach.

I'm getting sick of it.

Abby is struggling.

I don't know
if she's going to stick this out.

She's popped up once,
she might pop up again.

Speed, speed, speed.
Great, there we go.

Hello.
