Three more couples took the leap

and began their honeymoon.

Did you think it was going to be me? 50-50.

Number 28. There was an instant attraction for me,

straight off the bat. I would like to get to know her more.

I feel like the universe has aligned everything for me to be here.

For some, it's been smooth sailing...

Do you know what? I've got no complaints.

I feel really relieved that we've moved past my ex.

The last thing missing for me in my life was just, um... Me.

Yeah, that's it.

..but for others, it's been a rocky start.

I did that. I think it is worrying

that he doesn't have the life skills that I was hoping for.

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

What is that box?

This programme contains some strong language

It feels like you've been put with a dud.

Emotions run high...

I still can't see what the 50-50 was.

..as the couples come together for the first time.

I don't think that's crazy, to have an option one and an option two.

But I wasn't number one.

It's a bit suffocating sometimes, when it's just so full-on.

More wives ain't coming. Start appreciating what you've got.

Am I good enough?

It's just really difficult.

Thousands of miles from home,

six couples have been stranded

with someone they've only met for five minutes,

and now they're on honeymoon.

They've had no contact with the outside world...until now.

Ooh! What we got? What we got?

Oh, my God! What is going to be in here?

What do you want it to be? Coffee. All right, let's do it.

Ready? Yeah, let's go for it.

Three...two...one...

Ohh!

Ooh! My God! There's a tablet.

Ooh! What's going on?

Oh...

Not technology?!

I've forgotten how these things work. Oh, here we go.

Press play.

Congratulations, honeymooners.

It's Davina!

I hope you're enjoying married life together in total isolation.

So isolated, in fact, that I can't even be there,

but you will be hearing from me along the way.

These crates are going to be washing up on your beach

every now and then, each containing something different,

but all designed to help you grow as a couple

and move your relationship forward.

You've now been stranded together for a few days,

but how much have you discovered about your partner?

Quite a lot. Yeah.

Your first crate drop is to help you get to know each other better.

Inside, you'll find a selection of personal items...

Oh!

..and something to help you truly reflect.

SHE SQUEALS

Enjoy.

Thanks, Davina.

What a queen. Kiss Davs.

Right, personal items.

This is so great!

These personal items were chosen by our honeymooners

before the were stranded on Honeymoon Island...

We've got an easel and a canvas.

I've just always loved painting.

This is my kilt.

I didn't know you were Scottish.

HE LAUGHS

..when they had no idea who their husband or wife would be.

Look at those fit girls!

We are definitely going to a festival together. Like, 100%.

I would love that. Are you a good dancer?

What's your iconic move? My dancing right now's going to be like...

It's the Bible.

God is always in my pocket.

God is always in our... Ee-ehh... Come on, come on!

What on earth is that? It's my LED face mask.

This is, like, anti-ageing.

Uh-huh.

This, for me, is just like,

not being ashamed of, like, looking after yourself.

Like, self-care. Like...

HE LAUGHS

It just looks like something out of a film.

I'm thinking, "What's that film, where they, like, murder everyone?"

Got two pictures here.

Oh, photos!

It's a photo of my dog.

My big boy, Zeus. Can I see? Yeah. Yeah?

Yeah, there he is.

Oh, he looks like he's your protector.

I'm just imagining him loving...

Would he love it here? He'd love it here, yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Um, that's my twin sister, Holly.

This is so lovely!

It's OK.

Take your time.

Yeah, I don't know. It just made me a bit emotional to see them.

Of course it did, yeah.

You've already sort of said how close you are with your family

and... Yeah, super close. Let's nail them up somewhere,

so that you can see them every day. Yeah, that'd be cool.

While Helen gets to know Abby's family,

not everyone's items are quite so sentimental.

I have no idea what this is.

What is it?

This is my ick list.

Right! HE LAUGHS

It's worrying me that Millie's got an ick list.

I could be on there, but let's hope not.

Are you ready? OK, this is going to be interesting.

OK. Ahem.

"Bites nails." Don't do that.

"Is hairy." Not hairy. Fantastic.

"Drives a manual car."

Mine's automatic.

Makes me feel sick. HE LAUGHS

Right, this one's for you.

"People who run." Is that an ick?

Because before they race, they take this, like, glucose shit,

and some people shit themselves.

I can't say I've ever shit myself.

I can't deal with that - ick!

I don't know if Millie's met many runners,

because I've never taken anything that's made me shit myself.

"Has skinny legs."

Have I got skinny legs?

"Wears a man bag."

Haven't brought it with me. But you have one?

I haven't brought it with me.

Just actually start ticking along, which ones you...

The perks of a man bag is, you can keep everything in one space.

When we're out here, I could have my sun cream in.

They come in handy.

Ugh!

And that...that's about as...

..as psycho as I get.

Or is it?

Well, I mean, I suppose honesty is important in a happy marriage.

Taniae's also written down

some deep and meaningful words for her new husband, Ollie.

This is my gift to you.

That's OK, you don't have to get me anything.

I didn't get...

I'm quite nervous.

Oh, OK.

Wow! So, you've written all of these? Yeah, so ...

"Dear husband, here you'll find

"44 handwritten affirmations on love and partnership,

"resilience and strength, growth and confidence,

"and faith and the bigger picture."

That's awesome.

So I love affirmations.

Why?

You know, like most people, I've just gone through a lot in my life,

and I've just really leant on affirmations

to kind of get me through.

Now I'm getting upset. Really?

Mm-hm.

Um, give me a second.

SHE EXHALES

The last guy I was seeing was a liar,

and I found out he'd been...

Like, he'd been cheating on me.

And I just think it's...

Yeah, I don't know. Like, I just...

I think... I feel like I really show up for these relationships.

And then these guys just, like, don't treat me very nice... Yeah.

..for some reason.

Watching Taniae get emotional, I'm feeling quite upset and...

I don't really know how to deal with it.

It gives me confidence that she's going to be happy with me,

because I will never do something like that to someone.

It makes me want to almost prove to her

that there are good dudes out there,

that there are dudes who are not going to do that.

You're great. I think they're the problem.

They are 100% the problem.

Ah! Oh, we've got two things!

Also in their crate is a mirror.

With no mirrors on the island,

this will the first time they've seen their reflections

since being stranded.

Oh, wow.

It's really weird, seeing myself.

Sweaty, sandy.

Obviously, I hate that cold sore on my face.

Natural beauty. You're so kind.

This will be a chance for them to tell their partner

how they truly feel about the person looking back at them.

I'm not going to lie to you. I still can't see what the 50-50 was.

I'm looking in the mirror... Oh...

..and there's a little bit of a cute gyal staring back at me.

You know what I'm saying?

100% feeling the effect of being stranded in this island.

Nobody's 50-50.

When David said he wouldn't have picked me,

I think my ego was very, very hurt.

If we were outside and you told me that information, I'd be like,

"Thank you so much..."

Cuts to go.

There's nowhere to go.

So it actually forces me to work through the emotions I'm feeling

and get to the issue,

as opposed to fighting the person.

There's been periods where I feel quite low. Mm.

So to look in the mirror and be happy and smiley,

and confident with what's staring back at me...

Yeah. ..I'm happy.

Nobody else can tell me if I'm beautiful, or if I'm not.

For me, I look in the mirror, and I know I'm the image of God,

and he made me beautiful.

Wow, that's...

It's not about how a guy sees you,

not about how anybody else sees you, but how you see yourself.

As a man, seeing a woman speak that way about herself,

it just warmed my heart, cos that's how I'd like to see

my sisters, my future daughters and my mother speak about themselves,

so, that really warmed my heart and made me, like, "Wow!"

Look at you.

People like you, a confident woman like you.

Um... Look at her.

I probably see somebody who has had to change a lot

about their physical appearance,

because of a very bad relationship

that made me feel like I wasn't pretty, or didn't look good enough.

Like, my nose, my teeth. Filler, face - everything.

But I also see somebody who's really strong, who's overcome a lot,

and I guess somebody who I'm proud of.

You're so strong, and I'm proud of you as well. Thank you.

The fact Millie opened up a little bit more

has made me understand her a little bit more.

It's always nice to know what someone else is thinking.

I'm here to support her.

A confused man in that mirror - that's what I see.

Right. What are you confused about?

Relationships. Our relationship.

Whether it is just a friendship, whether it can be more.

Do you have hope, or are you, like, thinking,

like, you know it's... You know what you know, and...?

I am hopeful that there would be more,

because you are such a nice girl.

Yeah. I've got to be honest with you. I don't ...

I did feel a bit, like, embarrassed.

When you said, like, I'm like a little sister to you... Yeah.

I know you keep saying, like, I'm a nice girl, I'm a nice girl,

but like... Like, it makes feel like I'm, like, an ogre.

You know what I mean? Like... Not at all.

Not at all.

Like, I don't want you getting upset.

I think, really, what, like, sucks is, like,

one thing I know that guys, like, always compliment is, like,

how confident I am.

I'm just not confident here, like, and it just doesn't feel like me.

Yeah.

Like, I am sorry that you don't feel yourself right now.

I mean, it is a tough environment.

Like, it's super hard.

Yeah, but it feels like you've been put with, like, a...

You know what I mean? Like, a dud. You know what I mean? Like...

No. You were my number one pick.

Yeah, I know, but it doesn't feel that way.

No, I get that.

SHE SOBS

Right.

Come here.

There's a lot of traits that I really find attractive in Mae,

and I think we would be a good match.

I just... There's just that something that...

That one thing that you can't put your finger on, that's just missing.

And it's that... That's the big thing.

Um, I don't feel good.

And I do feel a bit, like, awkward. And I feel...

SHE SOBS

I mean, I just wish, like, he'd find me attractive.

We look cute together.

This is only helping our relationship grow,

and where we are right now is really nice and happy.

That was really good.

I do feel closer to you now, I'm not going to lie.

Yes! Yeah? So cute!

I feel like Abby might have, you know,

just cracked the door open for me a little bit today.

I don't know, still, whether she's going to be willing

to open the door the full way.

But, you know, I want more.

I think this is one of our best sunsets yet, you know.

Night, then. Night.

Our honeymooners have now been stranded for a few days

in this remote island paradise...

Lunges!

..away from outside interference,

and with only one another for company.

Can I wear your shirt?

You have to pay for that. No, I'm joking. You don't have to...

You know, in a marriage, what's mine is mine,

and what's yours is mine.

You no speak English!

THEY LAUGH

I feel a lot better waking up.

I feel lighter.

We spoke about things in, like, depth before we went to sleep.

I think honesty, for me, is very important.

Like he said, he probably wouldn't have picked me first.

I wouldn't have wanted to hear him say that, but it's his honesty.

Back in the outside world,

I will meet great, amazing women, and I'll find a reason

why it cannot work - because of this, because of that -

and I realise, being on here, I can't do that.

I think what happened at that time with the 50-50,

all that stuff, I think it was meant to happen.

Because we're here, we're able to work through it,

and it's what I needed.

I want to thank you, Lord, for bringing us here, together.

We're know we're compatible,

and I'm looking forward to us continuing to build this foundation.

You know, you have your promise, you have your plan.

And we know that we're going to have to grow, learn.

Test is something that faith will always do.

So it'll test you.

It'll never be, like, a journey that is smooth or straight.

Whatever you've put in plan shall come to plan,

and I believe we're going to grow stronger.

There's a bigger picture.

Thank you, Lord.

Amen. That was nice!

Good?

Well done. Thank you.

No-one said finding "the one" was going to be easy...

..but it's even harder if love isn't all that you're looking for.

Oh, fuck!

Ollie, what are you doing?

Er, nothing.

What are you doing?

Um...

Genuinely?

Er, yeah...

..the ring's come off. No!

I saw it in the sand, and then was, like, trying to grab it,

and it just seemed to sink into the sand.

I feel a bit of an idiot.

That was a stupid thing to do.

What do you want to do?

I'll keep looking.

Rings are symbolic of marriage.

And now his is gone.

So, it's a bit shit.

I didn't lose it on purpose. I do actually like you.

I like you, too.

It's disappointing, the situation is disappointing.

Will you make something?

Even if it's, like, a piece of string,

at least there's something there.

It'll be funny in a few days.

But right now, it's not.

OK, there we go. Suits you.

I actually quite like it.

It's better than the gold.

I think we're winning.

It's not about the problems, it's about the solutions.

It's been a dramatic morning for some,

but others have had a more - hmm - leisurely start to the day.

It's just nice to feel close to you. Yeah.

So, last night, Sam and I did take things to the next level.

Very romantic.

It just felt natural.

Woken up in a great mood this morning.

Yeah, we had a fun night together.

I mean, I did promise my grandma that I wouldn't.

Granny Ivy, I'm sorry.

Oh, look away now, Granny Ivy!

Actually, keep watching,

cos there's nothing naughty happening on Abby and Helen's beach.

Right, darling, I've got us quite a few here.

Yes, you do.

We left it on a really good note when we went to bed last night.

It was really nice.

But I really, really want to be able to kiss her.

I just can't because I have a cold sore.

It's like I'm snogging this coconut. Go on, get it down you.

Are you jealous? Yeah.

Not ideal that we can't really neck at the moment.

It is frustrating. You've just got married,

and you're on your honeymoon now, so, yeah ...

No, I want to get cracking on and start necking her,

but, yeah, just got to wait.

Mmm... Yeah? Nice?

It's well nice. Very fresh.

Literally, every time I moved in bed last night,

I felt like my skin was just being exfoliated. Yeah.

Sunburn, sand... Sunburn, sand and bugs.

Yeah, there's bugs every... Argh!

So, last night in bed, me and Millie had a little chat.

I just asked her, basically, how she was feeling.

She said she really likes me, I'm a nice guy, a nice person,

but the attraction's not quite there for her yet.

It is making me feel a little bit rejected.

I mean, no-one likes to be told that someone's not attracted to them,

if you do like them.

Making me upset.

you'd be the one to break me

I think everyone deserves love.

I certainly came on this experience and this journey to find love.

Deep down, I still feel like I can find that.

It's just a massive step back.

Going to bed last night, my emotions were pretty much all over the place,

in the sense of, like, "Do you want to sleep on the hammock?

"Shall I sleep on the hammock?" Do you know what I mean?

If it's that little sister vibe, then like, is that weird?

Cos I'm used to being, like, say, chased

and batting off the lads with a stick.

Um, so, this is a bit of a, "Oh?"

Humbling.

I'm not wanting to give up or quit,

cos I genuinely believe that there's something there

between me and Moray that could be so special.

Morning, sunshine.

Morning. How are you? Yeah, all good.

How was your "me time" this morning?

Yeah, nice. Yeah? What have you been up to?

I went shell-hunting... Oh, yeah? ..and I've got a gift for you.

I've come on this for love.

Like, I've come on this to prove to myself that,

like, I'm not asking for too much. I can get what I deserve.

This one...

It's a love heart. Yeah! Yeah. That's very cute.

Just because, like I say, I am hopeful,

because we've got the friendship. That's the main thing.

But, yeah, like I say, I'm hopeful that

romance can come and we can blossom.

I think, back home and stuff, my issue with dating is,

I always cut things off really quick. Yeah.

And I'm doing the exact same thing.

What, you think, like, you're cutting me down quick?

Yeah, straight away, just not even allowing things to blossom,

or see what happens. Yeah.

So what's your goal, then? Are you hoping to, like...?

I'm hoping to, like, just try and... Give it more of a chance?

Yeah, exactly. Oh, yay! Welcome to the good side.

Yeah, and just, like, not be so quick

at making a decision or... I feel so much better, you know?

I'm really happy to hear that he's hoping

and open to, like, seeing where this can go,

and see if it does go a bit more romantically.

I'm feeling super positive for me and Moray,

that it's going to end up beautifully.

Our honeymooners have had rings on their fingers -

well, most of them! -

for a few days now,

but they've never had a proper party to celebrate their marriage.

So I've got a little surprise for them.

Right. "Dear honeymooners..."

"..today, you will be attending your wedding reception..."

"..at your first Couples Cove."

What? First Couples Cove?

So we're going to be with all the other couples? I guess so.

Argh!

Come on! That's going to be fun.

I wonder how everyone's getting on?

I can't wait to see the other couples.

It's going to be so good to see who's with who.

I want to know, has anyone hooked up yet?

I'm buzzing to get off this beach, see everybody,

and have a bit of a party.

"And as this is a wedding reception,

"there will be wedding speeches.

"So now it's time to write them."

"Inside this sack are a few things to help you

"feel your best for the big event."

Ohh!

Oh!

Mouthwash!

Shower gel. Stunning!

Is that deodorant? Yeah!

Aw!

SHE SNIFFS Oh, yeah.

Yeah...

HE LAUGHS

I got a razor!

Look, we've got a hairbrush! This is the best day ever.

Getting that hairbrush,

I'm hoping that fixes mine and Moray's relationship,

because I am...

I don't think he's going to be romantically involved

with Rod Stewart.

Do you think we'll have our first dance? I think so.

I'm going to have to get you up to speed.

I can't have you embarrassing me on the dance floor.

Hey, look. Look, look. Do you think that's for us?

They're coming to save us.

Don't fall.

Our couples have spent quality time getting to know each other

without any other distractions.

How's the view? It's splendid.

But now they must leave their beaches

and head for a new destination.

Off the island! I'm so buzzing.

Let's go!

This will be chance to let off steam

and connect with the other stranded honeymooners,

who they haven't seen since the speed dating.

It's going to be nice, mixing with other people and... Yeah, deffo.

..show off a bit, I think.

It's not a competition, but I do feel like

we're going to feel very confident with each other, walking in.

I wonder if there's going to be some surprises.

There's going to be drama?

I think there's going to be surprises, but we'll see.

You think? Yeah.

Any tea, I will be filling my cup and...sipping.

I'm intrigued to see how other people are getting on

with the romance side. I do hope that we're not the weakest couple.

I'm super excited to go into Couples Cove with Moray.

Now the fact, obviously, he's reassured me that he has hope there.

Before, I felt a bit like I might be a bit embarrassed.

But now he's obviously got that reassurance

that he does want to give it a go,

and he does want to see where we can blossom, I'm excited to go.

There would have been nothing worse than going to the Couples Cove

and Mae thinking, "We're all lovey-dovey, everything's perfect."

So, I am really grateful that we've had the communication

and we are on the same page going into this.

This looks awesome.

We've got this.

Oh, I see a bar.

What's your drink of choice? Beggars can't be choosers.

CORK POPS Woo!

Feels great to be at Couples Cove.

Cheers.

Super excited to see everyone and catch up with everyone.

And, yeah, ready to let my hair down.

I think I see a couple. I see people!

Who goes there? Have they got booze? Yeah.

You guys look very happy. How you doing, brother?

I'm very well. How about you, boy?

Hiya. Hello! Moray!

Moray, I'm Hannah.

Cheers, guys. Cheers, guys. Cheers.

So, I take it you two were happy to see each other

at the end of the aisle? I was gassed. Yeah, we were.

What about you guys? Yeah. Each other's number one.

We're happy we got each other.

We're definitely a team. We've definitely got a good bond.

Aw! No, I'm seeing...

I'm seeing... I'm seeing side-eye.

Yeah? No?

We got our number ones. Yeah.

I wouldn't change Moray for the world. Same. Yeah. Happy couple?

Yeah, we are. Mm-hm. Oh, look at us!

Hello!

Hey!

Yes, guys, you made it!

Oh, my God!

What you saying, bro?

EXCITED CHATTER

I'm Hannah. How you doing, Hannah?

I'm good. What's your name? David, David, David. David.

Ini and David, they look unreal. They're like a match made in heaven.

You look happy! I'm so glad.

Like, everyone looks happy.

Like, you look happy. Yeah, I'm happy! You happy?

THEY LAUGH

Getting me a bit emotional, looking round at all the couples,

seeing, like, how well they're getting on and how smooth it's been.

How has it been for you so far? Oh, mate, I'm gassed.

I got who I wanted. Yeah, you look it.

Have you gotten intimate?

MORAY LAUGHS

That's a "yes"!

A gentleman never tells, right? Oh, hey!

Good job you're not a gentleman.

No, that smile says it all.

Sam and Hannah right now are couple goals.

When I came to Stranded, that's exactly what I was looking for.

So I'm a little bit jealous.

How are you finding it? You know what? Mae is a lovely girl.

Yeah. But right now, I'm just not finding that romantic spark at all.

And that's, like, the big point

that I can't really move past at the moment.

Yeah, man. That's a tough...tough position to be in.

The banter's definitely there,

so we've got a great bond, we've got a great friendship.

But the thing that's got to me is, him saying, like,

"Oh, I just feel like you're a little sister to me."

OTHERS GASP

Maybe my ears were blocked - say it one more time.

No, don't make her repeat that. That is... That's awful.

Don't make her repeat that, please. Sorry, what?

How are you meant to now feel sexy when you're sis?

I feel gutted for Mae.

No girl wants to be referred to as a "little sister".

I actually said to her, "I see you as, like, a little sister."

Oh...

I know. So... I know, I know. Should have said "a friend".

Ever the romantic, you are!

I know, I know! Honestly.

But I've said, basically, I want to keep the door ajar,

because in my previous relationships,

I'm very bad at just switching off straight away.

I think, as long as you're actually hopeful yourself... No, I am.

You know what, as well? He hasn't got a sister.

Maybe he wants you to be the sister he never had? Stop. Sorry.

Just needs to see a good thing when he sees it.

Have you had some deodorant in your packages?

Yeah, I got some with my personal stuff.

Saved me quite a bit. Oh, I feel like a new man.

Careful, though, because that draws the flies. Oh, does it?

Yeah, aftershave... At least there's some attraction.

THEY LAUGH

Oh, my... Sorry. Too soon, too soon!

As everyone gets the lowdown...

Whoo!

..more honeymooners have come to join the party.

Ah, Couples Cove is a dream.

It's exactly what we needed today.

Cheers. Cheers to dreams. We're having dream.

THEY SHRIEK

Come on!

They're not holding hands. They're not holding hands.

THEY WHOOP

How we doing?

You look happy.

Ish!

Hello! Oh, my God!

Rose!

I can see number 28's there.

I'm just a little bit nervous because of the 50-50 conversation.

Was there anybody else that I had in mind?

For me, the answer is yes. I did have you and one other person.

So who would you have preferred?

Number... Number 28, the Asian-Australian.

Wait, who's she with?

Is it posh man? It looks like him.

Um, I mean, I hope it's not tense for me and Taniae.

A bit of a weird situation.

I'm not sure how to kind of, like... You know, do I say hi? Do I not?

EXCITED SHRIEKS

Hello. How are you?

Obviously, the 50-50 comment is upsetting,

but I'm not going to make it weird.

How you doing? Ohh!

You look so happy!

Are you happy? I am.

No wedding reception would be complete without...

..a wedding breakfast!

I thought it'd be nice to raise a toast to new friends,

to new partners, and not a lot else.

And food! Yes!

Cheers. To the highs and lows.

Let's eat!

I'm buzzing to be eating.

There's fish, there's meat, and I need some fuel.

We have not eaten much for many, many moons.

Love a bit of breast.

I am not feeling my best, I'm not going to lie.

I feel like I am very emotional today.

It's really... It's a...

It's difficult.

Are you OK? Yeah. Anything else?

Seeing everybody happy really has hit home how much I'm not.

Talk to me. What's going on?

I just think we're so different. Right...

Like, the connection just... There's no spark.

That's so gutting.

I really like her.

Like, she's exactly what I came for, exactly what I want.

We have a laugh, we've got the same values.

The only thing is, she just said she's not attracted yet.

It's just not what you want to hear. Oh, definitely not.

When you come here and see everyone else is all lovey-dovey...

Cracking on and everything, yeah. I hope we can move on. Mm.

Are you thinking, at this moment in time,

you want to push through and keep going,

and see if something can spark?

Like... Yeah, I came here for a reason.

I want to find someone, and I think...

I think you're doing the right thing,

trusting that you were matched for a reason. Yeah.

And who knows? You might find it.

Yeah. Just constantly communicate... How I'm feeling.

..how you're feeling, because you deserve to. Yeah, I need to.

At the end of the day, you know yourself, OK?

And you've just got to stay true to yourself,

but from one independent woman to another,

we do have to kind of chill out sometimes, babe.

I know. Let love in a bit, you know?

There is nothing that she wouldn't do

to make a really good crack at this,

but love isn't a science. It's magic.

It's something you can't control.

We said it's like a never-ending first date.

But you're both filthy, stinking...

I think the pressure element is tough.

Is anyone else finding that?

We kind of started off rocky.

Like, at the beginning,

when she walked down the aisle, she asked me,

"Was I who you were expecting? Was there anybody else?"

I said, "Yeah, it could be you or someone else." I said, "50-50."

At the ceremony? At the ceremony.

Oh, shit.

I don't that's that crazy, to... You're being honest.

I don't think that's crazy, to have an option one and an option two.

He's just said it. You've just asked him, and he's just said it.

But I wasn't number one.

I was like, "Yeah," expecting it to be either 28, Taniae,

or it's going to be... Oh.

I'm a married woman!

I mean, the ego boost is definitely there.

He was my... If I had to pick a number two...

Back off.

Taniae's all eyes on me at the moment. Go away.

To hear that, whilst in a wedding dress, with someone that,

you know, you're really ready to embark on an adventure with,

I don't know what must have been going through Ini's head

at that point. I did try and divorce him.

Surely, deep down, she is not that happy with it?

But it's good, it's good. Really good now.

The chemistry's built so... Like, we had a chemistry that day as well.

Ooh!

Nice recovery, David.

But now might be a good time for someone else to do the talking.

You OK? Yeah. Are you? Yeah, I'm good. And... Yeah.

I've had a tough 24 hours,

in terms of mine and Millie's relationship.

Millie does seem quite off with me, and it does make me think,

"Have I done something wrong, or is it just her being her?"

TAPPING ON GLASS

Everybody, listen up, listen up.

It's finally time for the most heart-warming -

sometimes the most toe-curling - part of any wedding...

Hey, honeymooners.

..the speeches!

Hi! Hey, hey, hey!

What a start to this mad adventure it's been.

Abby, you've been the perfect partner to dive into this with.

I've thought about how lucky I am to be matched with you

every day so far.

Aw... That's sweet.

So cheers to marriage, Stranded life and, hopefully, to love.

Cheers! Cheers to you, guys. Cheers, everybody.

Ah, you're all absolutely amazing people. Cheers. Well done.

I think, currently, we are a good, strong marriage.

I wouldn't be surprised if we were one of the strongest right now,

to be honest, but we're just going to have to see.

Ollie, I didn't expect...

Ooh, waterworks.

I didn't expect to get married this way,

but I'm really, really, really happy that we've been matched.

You know, hopefully, this goes well and continues to go well and...

..on the island and beyond. So, thank you. Thank you.

OTHERS CHEER

What's really been special for me is the spark that we felt

at the speed dating not only hasn't died out, it's got stronger.

I'd even go as far to say as there are some flames

and a fire to be nurtured.

I'm so grateful to be married to you,

and I'm incredibly excited to see where it goes.

Aw!

Well said.

I've been stitched up, after that.

So...

I felt relief when I turned round to see Mae coming down the aisle.

She'd been my best connection at our speed dates,

and I was hopeful we could continue on from where we had left off.

Since being stranded, Mae has made my experience,

through her humour and bubbly personality.

Our friendship and bond has grown by the day.

I can't wait to continue getting to know Mae,

and see where this may lead us. So, to us.

Aw, that's lovely.

That was so much better than I expected!

THEY LAUGH

We're rooting for you, guys. We're really rooting for you.

I'm tearing up a little bit.

It's feeling really reassuring, hearing what Moray's saying.

I wasn't expecting him to be so affectionate with his words.

It's just got me a bit emotional, because I'm just like,

"Oh, thank God, there is something here still."

I got a bit worried at first, when everyone seemed all happy days.

I was like... Whenever you compare yourself to others,

it can just, like, take away from your own journey. Yeah.

I am hopeful it does blossom.

The fact that he's showing what he likes about me,

and that he wants to make this work,

it makes me feel like I haven't come all this way,

and haven't put so much on the line, for nothing.

This must be the most dishevelled wedding reception known to man.

Speaking of man, let's talk about my man, Moray.

I can't imagine I'd want to be partnered with anyone else.

You are my rock here,

and I genuinely believe that we can be so special.

And so far, not only are you what I want - not what I need -

but what I deserve.

I know we have had a wee bump in the road, laddie...

THEY LAUGH

..but I'm so happy you see it moving forward,

because, to me, you are naturally amazing

and the best guy I've met in such a long time.

Moray is the epitome of what a man should be.

He is naturally caring, protective...

SHE SOBS Aw!

Aw, bubs.

You've got this. Yeah...

We love you, Mae. You've got this. You've got it, Mae. You've got this.

He is naturally caring, protective,

and has the kindest soul behind his eyes,

and I'm hopeful you are my first and last husband.

So, everyone, to me, to Moray

and most importantly, to Moray's biceps.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Mae's speech does make me a little bit worried,

because she has gone very deep,

and it's showing that she is a lot further down the road

than I am right now.

This morning, I felt like I was on the same page as Mae.

But after listening to the speeches,

I feel like I'm going to have to have a chat with her,

because I feel like we're on completely different pages.

This is paradise right now.

It's giving very wholesome vibes.

I'm worried we're going to start singing Kumbaya in a minute.

Stunning. There's some very cute couples sitting round the fire pit.

We're all looking at you like, "Fuck, yous have got it."

It's lovely to see. It's so nice. Aw. Cute.

Are we going to be cute again?

Going to show everyone your dance moves?

What, now? Yes, now! Yeah, you've got this.

Oh, are you about to do it? THEY CHEER

Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

Right, you start and I'll jump in.

Yeah? Yeah.

THEY CHEER

That one? Yeah, yeah. Come on. Hang on. Right, ta-da!

Are you ready for the big one? Yeah, yeah, the big one.

Right. This is the grand finale.

Moray, I could feel his awkwardness as he was doing that.

Like, he didn't really want to be up there.

Go on!

I can tell he's got a lot going on up here.

To be fair, the dance went better than I expected,

but at the back of my mind is her speech.

Is anyone surprised by who was matched?

No. No, don't think so. No, not at all.

I wasn't surprised,

but my attraction for you is a lot more than what yours is right now.

For me, it's like...

.."Am I good enough?"

That's nothing against you. Yeah, but you shouldn't feel like that.

That's nothing against you.

I've had this in the past, and this was my biggest...

Like, that was my biggest worry, coming in here, and it happened.

Mm. So, I shed a little tear earlier.

Um, it's quite sad,

but when you said you weren't attracted to me yet,

I've kind of hung onto that "yet".

We do have fun, and I feel like it could work,

but we won't know until we try, and I would like to try.

I hate the fact that, like, I'm hurting someone,

because obviously, that's not what I want to do.

And he's lovely, and it's so hard to know

that I'm the reason why he's upset. It's just really difficult.

I genuinely feel, like, if you guys focus on building a friendship,

you will see the best in each other.

Yeah, I think...

..we just need to, I think, just communicate more

and go back to where we were, and then work from there.

And then see if we can build, you know,

from a friendship into something more. I agree.

There is a little bit of hope there.

Like, I don't think the door's fully shut.

In my mind, it could work, but I'm just going to take it day by day.

I'm just trying to tell him everything I'm feeling,

because I want him to know that I am genuinely trying.

And...yeah, what more can I do?

LOW CHATTER

Do you want to come over this way?

Huh? Do you want to come this way?

I don't know, do I?

Oh.

Doesn't look good.

From the wedding speech,

it just felt like we were in a long-term relationship,

and I just really want to communicate with her

where my head's at.

Your speech at the wedding ceremony, as lovely as it was,

and it genuinely was so touching,

but I think after our discussion this morning,

feeling like we were on the same page,

and then, this evening, I feel like you're just ten chapters ahead,

if you know what I mean? Cos... What did I say that was, like...?

"First and only husband", and, like, stuff like...

Yeah, but I am hopeful for that.

Do you think I want to be doing this over and over again? Yeah,

but it felt like a speech, like we'd been in a relationship for,

like, a couple of years. Right. That...that... I'm just...

I can see you're getting frustrated with what I'm saying.

I thought it was quite overwhelming. It's only been a week. Yeah.

Moray, I wanted you to know, like, how much I appreciate you.

I... Can I talk? Sorry. You've had your bit.

I still feel like you're worried about

what's going to happen in the future,

whereas I'm just taking it perfectly ready.

But you are literally talking about the future.

Why am I? About being the last and only husband. That is talking...

All right, if I knew that was going to go that deep,

I wouldn't have wrote that line.

He's got a lot of arm movements going on, babe,

that don't look good.

I feel like it puts me under pressure.

I always feel pressurised to, like,

"Shit, like, that's where your head's at." Mm.

And then I'm, like, saying, like, I just see you as a friend.

And then, like, really, we're building that friendship.

But I just see you as a friend at the moment.

Yeah, I do.

What's that...? Sorry, I've got

probably the biggest set of balls here.

I will tell you how I feel, do you know what I mean?

I think you did, though, with the speech.

Yes, because I think you're a great person,

and I want you to know that you deserve love...

But if you just saw me as a friend,

you wouldn't want me as "my first and last husband".

I don't know. I'm kind of done with this conversation, to be fair.

I'm done putting my heart on the table,

or whatever the fucking saying is these days.

I'm just going to take a massive backstep.

He's lost my personality privileges.

This is Stranded On Honeymoon Island.

You're in a wedding dress.

Sorry, I don't know if he thinks he's fucking Henry VIII or what,

but it's not first of many wives, do you know what I mean?

I just genuinely don't think he's met someone

who's so willing to, like, put their cards on the table.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just, like, I just can't win.

I've genuinely got motion sickness.

This is, like, the worst roller-coaster I've ever been on.

And literally, the photo at the end...

How you going?

Pfft. I mean, pretty brutal.

But, like, it felt a bit awkward, cos it felt like it was too much.

For me, it's a bit suffocating sometimes,

when it's just so full-on.

All you can do is be honest with how you feel. I know.

It's just shit, when, like, such a nice girl,

and she deserves everything.

And it's, like, I don't want to piss her off and stuff.

I understand that.

She deserves the world. She deserves love and all that.

But at the moment, I don't feel like I'm that guy to give that.

I do feel really bad for Moray.

Mae probably needs to take his thoughts into account

a little bit, and lay off slightly.

He looks lost. When I look at him, he looks lost.

Yeah. Do you know what I mean? And I think...

I don't know what's going on up here, but...

Honestly, I don't think he'd know a good thing if it sat on his face.

Like... Want to give it a go?

Doesn't deserve it. Yeah.

Bless Mae. I think she's very much using her humour

to mask what she's really feeling,

because she's hurting, and I can tell that.

You OK?

Got presents.

What now? What now?!

"To mark the close of your wedding reception,

"here is a wedding favour for each of you."

Oh, yes!

Each favour consists of something sweet...

Thank you.

What does it say?

It says, "You're mine."

Aw!

..and a question.

OK.

"Ini to David, are you still 50-50?"

Ooh!

Answer wisely.

I'm not 50-50. I'm 100%.

Yeah, good answer, bro. Very good.

She makes me feel special, but I'm very grateful

that she's very understanding, very compassionate,

and it really does turn me on. Ooh!

CHEERING Big D! That fire's warm.

My man is turned on by me, my husband, and I love it.

Like, that's the best feeling.

It's just reassurance about our relationship.

50 plus 50 is now 100, and that's where we are.

If you put the two rings together, put my finger here,

then you'll get 100, and that's where we are.

"Was I your number one choice?"

Ooh!

Under the bus.

Um, no, you weren't, actually.

So, um, purely off the...

..the vibe at the speed dating,

number eight was definitely the one I thought just had a real connection.

Oh, my God, Ollie likes my ex -

that's obviously a pretty awkward thing to reveal

in front of a big group of people.

I always want to make sure that my partner

feels as loved and happy as they make me feel.

OK, we're mutual on that.

And that sort of stuck with me, and she sort of took that position.

But as I say, five minutes. Yeah. It's not long.

And I couldn't be happier when I saw you on the aisle.

And it was a real, "Wow."

Thanks, babe.

It is really hard to hear that, because he was my number one.

But, you know, he has - I don't know - reassured me.

Do you feel I'm someone you can trust?

SHE SIGHS

Um...

I've just been so hurt in the past.

It's...

..going to take some time for me to fully trust someone,

because when I fall, I fall.

I fall really hard.

I think trust needs to be earned, so I think that's...

Yeah. ..that's a pretty fair answer.

I don't fully trust him.

Let's be honest, we've basically just met,

and now we're in a marriage relationship.

Marriage is here, and dating someone new is here,

and we're trying to find a fine balance.

What do you need from me right now?

I need you, right now, to stop thinking you're Henry VIII.

More wives ain't coming, so...

You know what I mean? Start appreciating what you've got.

Bloody hell. That's a bit spiky.

Mae! Sorry.

Oh, that one's a bit sour, that one.

I don't really know what she means by the Henry VIII comment.

I feel like it's a little bit of an immature way,

and I'm looking for a woman, not a girl.

I just want you to understand that this is hard.

Moray tonight looks like a broken man,

and I'm not sure that, for him, it could last much longer.

I'm feeling pretty frustrated at the end of the night.

Like, how she's taken my communication of how I'm feeling

has sort of just pushed us apart.

There's a realisation

that everyone's finding this a lot easier than me and Moray,

and I do think me and Moray are the most out of our comfort zone.

I've just got so many emotions. Like, I'm upset, I'm pissed off.

I'm frustrated.

This is just so hard.

A new day dawns for our honeymooners.

It's a scorcher, but the hottest topic is yesterday's Couples Cove.

How did you find last night?

There was a lot of drama.

What did you think about Ollie and Taniae? I don't know.

I feel like your ex also being his number one is a bit confusing.

But positives from the night - it was nice to have a couple of beers.

Your speech as well.

I was quite pleased that we were having a good time.

be the love, be the love

I think, by the end of the night,

there was a lot of high emotion happening.

Honestly, I was really shocked.

I don't think they're on the same page, a couple of the couples.

I know.

Ah, take it easy now. Ah-ah!

Ah-ah! It's not going anywhere!

I love mango!

Everywhere mangoes, she goes.

Look at you - finished that thing in seconds.

And while most honeymooners seem sweet...

..some are in a more sour mood.

Morning. Morning.

Do you mind zipping me up?

Yeah, course.

Couples Cove was just awkward.

It felt horrible, really.

I just found Mae's comment on the Henry VIII just immature,

not needed. Just made me feel a little embarrassed.

I just want to, like, discuss about last night.

You were sort of just dismissive of how I was feeling. Yeah.

I just really didn't want to have that conversation right there.

When we were in the group and, like, the Henry VIII comment,

just it was... It wasn't necessary. I thought it was immature. Yeah.

I think what I'm finding the biggest struggle with Mae

is that she's not actually taking on board what I'm saying.

I think for me, I like to, kind of, like,

try and make a joke of the situation before... At my expense?

I didn't mean it like that, though.

If anything, it was more embarrassing for me.

Do you know what I mean?

I woke up realising

that I have been putting him on a pedestal.

Maybe I have got a bit carried away with the fairies.

So, for me, I'm just taking some backsteps,

because I'm actually thinking I do deserve something a bit more.

I'm the only girl there that's got a guy that doesn't fancy her.

Do you know what I mean? That's pretty embarrassing.

Mae and Moray aren't the only couple finding trouble in paradise.

What's your thoughts on last night?

It was just a lot. I was, I think, just quite overwhelmed with it.

I hate the fact that I've upset you,

but I can't help how I feel. Of course.

I've spent so long in life letting people just mug me off,

and not actually caring how I feel. I've not put myself first.

So I feel like, now, it's important for me to put myself first.

I don't want to see you upset. I never wanted to see you upset.

But I don't want to see you upset, because I care about how you feel.

I do think Millie's a bit upset about how last night went.

I don't actually know where we do stand right now.

Of course I'd like a future.

But do I think there is one? I don't actually know.

I feel like we should just strip it right back,

go to the start.

Have a laugh, take it day by day.

OK.

Give me a cuddle.

I feel like I'm just holding on to a lot of emotions from last night.

So I just kind of want to just get through today,

and just see how I'm feeling then.

This is actually really nice.

Do you think you can get in as well? Argh!

How do you drink your coconut? I just sip it, like an idiot.

I just put my lips there and suck.

You just put your lips there and suck?

OK. I think I'm going to walk away. Yep.

Are these bits all right? Yeah, that's a really good one.

Mill! What's that?

Quick!

Oh, shit. Another one.

Babe, look. No, no, no, look. Oi!

Thank God!

Whee! Go, go, go! I really hope this is something good.

Run! Argh!

It's a crate.

What is it today?

Please, please, please, please, please...

I'm hoping it's my coffee machine.

My God, I hope it's clothes.

Is there a hairdryer in there?!

Hoping for some other shorts.

Can you wait to see me anything but this wedding dress?

All right.

Excited for this one.

Let's be optimistic. It'll be something worthwhile.

Let's go.

THEY GASP

Oh, what? What the hell?

"In case of an emergency, break the glass"?

Let's go for the tablet first.

What have we got?

Here we go. Ready? Yeah, play.

Hello, honeymooners! Hello!

Well, you've now been stranded with each other for nearly a week.

No doubt it's been tough.

Tough? She's not joking.

I hope that most of you are thriving...

..but some of you may only just be surviving.

In this crate is an emergency flare.

If you truly believe that there's no future for love or growth

with your partner,

you now have the chance to flare out of your honeymoon.

Wow.

Wow! This is mental.

..and end your marriage today.

But think carefully about your decision,

because when you release the flare,

you're going to be saying goodbye to your honeymoon for good.

Commit...

..or quit.

The choice is yours.

My head is just scrambled right now.

I just don't know if I'm, like, wasting my time.

This is a massive decision.

I just need to make the right one.

I'm concerned that you're not understanding where I'm coming from.

Moray's a hard one to read. He has got a resting bitch face.

Shit. It's a flare. Oh, my God!

Where's that come from? No fucking way!

How sad. They've just gone.

What do you need from me?

I need you to let me in, cos I don't think you have.

We've got a message.

"David, Taniae will be visiting your beach."

It's so weird, cos I just can't be like this around Ollie.

Oh, wow.

So you can't fancy me because we haven't kissed or had sex?

I need to kiss the person and see if, like, I'm into it. Yeah.

We've got a problem.
