Original subtitles

While some couples strengthened their romantic connections...

Finally, Abby and I are on the exact same page.

Actually look quite hot. Yeah? Yeah. Shall I wear it in the bedroom?

..it wasn't a walk on the beach for every relationship...

Matt's pulled back a little bit.

We're friends. Oh!

..as Taniae called it quits on hers...

Oh, my God, babe, babe!

I don't want a man that doesn't want me.

..and Hannah and Sam faced a new challenge in theirs.

It's my ex, Megan. What are your true intentions for being here?

Because that feels like someone that's trying to catch me out.

She actually knows him better than I do.

I'm the new girl.

# Bleed me dry like a goddamn vampire... #

It's the rating for the speed dating questionnaire.

Some of our couples take a trip down memory lane...

"I found them physically attractive, three."

Ooh.

Who is that? I'm nervous.

..while unexpected guests gate-crashed the honeymoons...

Ini! A piece of home is here with me.

..bringing tears... It's been so hard!

A man has never loved me.

..and home truths.

I don't think she's the one.

ECHOING: I don't think she's the one.

Living on deserted beaches,

our stranded couples are used to things washing up on shore.

Little coconut in the hammock.

Ah, thank you!

There you go. What a nice surprise.

Crates, supplies, even castaways.

But nothing can prepare them for this lot.

Did they say Mae?

Who is that? I'm nervous.

Is it coming for us?

Is that Sian?

Is that actually my mother? Shut up.

Helen!

SHOUTING

Oh, my God!

# Our dreams come... #

That's my mum! That's... That's Sian!

WHOOPING AND SHOUTING

Hey!

INDISTINCT CHAT

..crying!

Moray's mum Adrienne

and Mae's friend Sian have travelled across the globe to see them,

bringing a priceless cuddle and a little bit of jet lag.

I can definitely tell straight away my mum is just as emotional as me.

Sian's just exactly the person I need to speak to.

It just feels so good that she's... That she's here,

and just to have that hug from home.

Hiya. Hiya, I'm Moray. Lovely to meet you.

Lovely to meet you. I've heard all about you. Oh, good.

Lovely to meet you.

Would've been nice if the mother-in-law gave me

a bit of a quick heads-up that she were popping by, do you know

what I mean? I would've put me best...me best dress on, maybe...

..comb me hair today.

What you doing here?!

For you, girl!

After weeks deserted on a tropical island,

Helen can't believe her friend Fran is here.

THEY SHRIEK

Due to work commitments, Abby's family

couldn't make the long journey out

so it's just Fran that they'll be hosting.

Hiya. This is my best mate! Abby, nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you, too.

If you would've said to me, "Have anything in the world, Helen,"

laid a million pounds at my feet, I'd have wanted Fran to be here.

There are some things money definitely can't buy,

and after a dramatic few days, a visit from Ollie's mum Caroline...

Welcome to...the beach.

..and Megan's friend Ciara could be priceless.

Hey, Mummy.

How are you? I can't believe...

I can't believe you actually came all the way out here.

How did the wedding go? Oh, well, I didn't marry her.

Hello, I'm Megan. Megan. Hi.

How are you? Lovely to meet you. Nice to meet you, too.

How are you guys? I think we have some stories for you guys.

# Wanna chase a miracle... #

Right, welcome.

This is it. I know.

Imagine when we... That's so cute.

Getting, like, Swiss family Robinson vibes.

That's what I said!

THEY LAUGH

That's exactly what I said! Right, come in.

This is our shower.

Oh, that's cute. Isn't it?

But, yeah, please, go up, enter. What way am I...?

Choose whichever one you like.

Oh, guys.

Oh, my God, you two look so fit. Right?!

But then the day after, I did not look like this.

This is home.

Take a little pew right here.

So, tell me how you've gone

from your wedding outfit to this.

Babe. Have you had no clothes? No. No. No.

I literally cut that with a machete. Yeah, she cut this off with a...

Machete? Yeah! It's over there.

You can have a go at opening a coconut in a minute.

# If you're looking for me, baby... #

Can't believe that you've come out here and got married on this island.

I know. I know. And you're stranded.

I wouldn't have wanted to be stranded with anyone else.

You've got a little twinkle in your eye there.

We've got the best bond.

That's lovely, isn't it?

Me and Moray's mum seem to have to hit it off, which is a good start,

and I'm just like, "Oh, I knew he liked me.

"I knew I wasn't delusional. I knew it was in there somewhere."

You've done a great job... Do you think so? Yeah.

You should write a book on how to raise a son.

Mae and my mum are getting on very well,

so I feel like I'd best fill her in before they get too attached.

And Adrienne's not the only mum who needs bringing up to speed.

There's actually a stupid amount to catch up on so I, um,

I got married off to someone else.

Um... Taniae. Yeah. Who wasn't my first pick.

I was. Yeah, yeah. Surprise!

Um, and then it just sort of went pretty bad.

I guess, not on the same pace.

And then we were thrown a wild card,

basically she rocks up on a boat,

and I was asked if I wanted to anchor down or test the waters.

And I was like, "Shit."

And so, yeah, all hell broke loose after that cos, obviously,

I said test the water. Yeah, it's been intense.

Yeah. And you've been through a lot.

I've got a good person on my side now.

# Don't give up now

# Don't Don't give up, no, no

# Don't give up, no, no... #

Unbeknownst to the others,

their friends and family are still

secretly making their way to the island.

Hi!

So Hannah and Sam and Georgina and Matt

have got time for a cheeky double date

before their surprise from home washes up.

Shall we have a little toast? Yeah. We wouldn't have wanted

any other couple. You're our happy...our happy good-vibe couple.

Yeah. Cheers, guys. Cheers to love.

So how are you feeling about Ollie and Megan?

I wouldn't really have chosen to have my ex

walk in to that situation.

You are telling a narrative that I broke up with you to come on this.

Things ended AND you decided to come on here. Yes.

But those two decisions are separate.

But maybe there's your truth, my truth and the actual truth, right?

Well, I've got proof that I... I've got proof too, hon.

It was good for me to be able to say my bit.

Clear the air. And to be honest,

it's nice to be able to just draw a line in the sand under it now.

Yeah. Because it's been affecting our relationship,

to a certain extent. Yeah. Has it made it stronger now

that this has all happened...? Do you know what? I think so

and I think in a situation like that, had yous two gone off

one by one, I might have still had questions. Yeah.

But the fact they were both able to sort of air it

in front of the group... Yeah. Because, like, as soon as she did

start speaking it was like, "You're just validating me more and more

"that, like, I can trust Sam in this." Yeah.

"And that Sam's truth is a truth that I resonate with

"and I believe," you know?

You handled it so well. Yeah. Honestly, you...

Like, you really did. Yeah. Oh, thank you. I'm not just saying that.

I think after the drama last night, it's allowed Hannah and I

to feel like we're a stronger couple coming out the end of it.

Hannah means the world to me.

Knowing that she's got my back in situations like that

is obviously massive. It's exactly what I'm looking for in a partner.

# I know some people They would die for me... #

While last night may have brought Hannah and Sam closer together,

Megan and Ollie are still feeling the aftermath.

So I'd imagine his mum Caroline has a few questions.

Hi.

# I'll stay for ever in my family... #

So you had the choice of everyone?

No, so I had a choice of, um,

exploring something with Moray or exploring something with Ollie.

And I chose Ollie. Yeah. Winner. Thank you.

No, thank him.

It's nice I can already tell that you've been very consistent

and genuine so... Thanks. Yeah.

This is an amazing opportunity, isn't it? Yeah.

To actually get to know somebody... Yes.

..out of context of the modern world is actually quite a privilege.

We've obviously both had a bit of a ride out here.

In a way, although we haven't had that much time together

in the short amount of space we have had together,

we've really... have come about as a team

and we have approached things from the same angle.

And so quickly we've aligned on opinions,

and that's actually been really comforting. So, however short

it's been, I'm thankful that it's you.

Same. Seme. Well, that could be because you're properly matched.

Yes. Yeah. Well, it could be.

On the outside world, do you think that much would change between you

and Megan? I think, given the chemistry we have,

I definitely... we'll definitely explore it.

But, yeah, I've sort of tried to be honest with sort of..

Now I just... It feels like I've got no brain power left

to sort of process stuff so, yeah,

I think it would be different, in a good way.

A touch from home has been exactly what we've needed.

But I'm definitely noticing from Ollie that his walls are up.

I think he's obviously quite guarded. He's been through a lot.

So, romantically, I don't know what's missing

but I can feel something that's not quite there.

And I haven't put my finger on it but, um,

I'm not going to throw in the towel. I'm going to keep...

I'm going to keep going and see what we can make out of this.

Megan may be sensing something's off with Ollie,

but luckily for her, the woman who knows him best is on hand to assist.

How are you coping? Well, it's actually been awesome.

Um... But you've been really pressured. It's been tough, yeah.

My mum's a pretty amazing woman.

I just knew she'd be able to feel my energy and, yeah, you know,

you know you can be your complete true self with your mum.

Definitely think I've learnt a lot about me, like, definitely the...

That element of running away,

finding little things about someone to run away.

With Taniae I was having them all the time and I was like, "No,

"stick it through, stick it through."

But it got to the point where I went... That spark,

that thing you need, that just never came,

and obviously hurting someone's not pleasant. Um...

No, but at the end of the day you'd given her time.

It would've been wrong to stick with someone

cos what you're doing is giving them the benefit rather than you.

I know you think it's a natural thing to want to please people

but you have to please yourself as well.

It became this huge thing where the girls came for me.

Oh, for God's sake.

Been hard.

# I find it hard to talk to myself... #

And when you're trying to be, like...

..trying to be my honest self,

when you're getting attacked it's just, like...

Yeah.

# But I know just how I feel... #

Takes a lot for you to...

Yeah. ..break down. Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, I don't think I've cried in... No. ..ever. No.

# I find it hard

# To figure it out... #

My emotions, I struggle to let them out.

I've always been very stiff upper lip

and I try and really address things pragmatically.

But the past few days have been, like, probably some of the most

intense in my life, and I haven't really been able

to get my thoughts out, and seeing my mum definitely brought it back,

how hard it has been. I just can't wait for you to come home.

Oh, I love you, Mum.

# Without a doubt... #

Is it weird sleeping in a bed with a stranger?

It's all right when he's that fit, though. Yeah, true.

Been through it, though. He decided to test the waters with me

and obviously it didn't go down well specifically with the girls

that Ollie was the one who I'd felt kind of had my back in that,

having not even known me, so that meant a lot.

I think we've aligned a lot in, like, how we approach topics

and approach conflict. We can be, like, a nice team

and, hopefully, his head's not too scrambled

to not explore something further.

I came out here to find love, you know, to explore a connection.

I'm finally at a stage where I love myself

and I know I'm worthy of being loved as well.

Just hope people allow that space.

I like him, he seems like a really nice guy and I think that...

I think everyone at home would like him as well. Yeah?

Yeah, I think everyone at home would like him.

Sam is here, the ex.

Is he?

He had our first run-in yesterday.

He wasn't, um, as friendly as I would've thought. OK.

And there was a bit of conversation in Couples Cove

and then he's just there like,

"Megan, I'd like to ask you a question."

And I was like, "Oh, here we go." And asked why I'm here.

Like, how long have you looked in the mirror

and rehearsed that question for? Oh, a big cringe.

And it's tough when you keep repeating yourself. Like, I'm not...

I don't want to be with you and I'm not here to derail your journey.

It sounds horrible. And it's so... He's a good guy

but then there's this side of him. This isn't nice.

Why are you tearing your ex down like that? It's nasty. Yeah.

Deep sigh.

You don't like him. I just don't like... You never liked him.

I don't...

Ciara is just absolute sunshine for me.

She says it as it is as well, like, she'll support me

when I'm feeling low. I honestly couldn't want for a better person

to come out here.

Megs. I love you. Going to cry.

You're so brave for doing this.

There's not many girls that can put up with that.

The girls may not be Sam's biggest fans on this beach...

# We could be nice to each other

# Nice to each other... #

..but over on his, Georgina and Matt have got nothing but compliments.

Your connection's so real. You can tell.

You can just tell, do you know what I mean? It's, like, so cute. Well,

we see you exactly the same but we see yous as, like,

when we was a week in, right? Yeah. Do you know what I mean?

Like, cos you are, you're happy, you're affectionate, like,

you have a genuine respect and love for each other. Like, I think

that's a foundation for whatever's going to come. Yeah.

You guys have...you've got it good. Mm.

Have you guys had any of the deep convos about sort of

where you're going after this?

We've only been here just over a week.

You know, you can be in a bit of a bubble.

And we had the most amazing few days.

It was very intense. Intense, yeah.

At the start? Yeah. Yeah.

But it's great, like, and that's, I think,

what we would be like.. Yeah. ..on the outside, yeah, exactly.

I think it's just the heat

and Matt's struggled a bit with the environment.

You know, we had those couples of days and I thought,

"I know it's hot but I'll get used to it."

We've built what we need to here

and the real test now is the outside.

My only concern for Georgina and Matt's relationship

is probably the distance.

And I don't know if, once Georgina wants to have

more in-depth conversations about emotions and feelings, I don't know

if Matt will be able to live up to her expectations of what she needs

and what she wants from a husband.

INDISTINCT SINGING

While Georgina and Matt glean advice on their relationship

from a fellow couple, on Moray's beach,

he's only interested in hearing from one special lady - his mum.

Oh, wow.

This looks impressive, doesn't it?

"Mae and Moray."

My mum does try to give me a lot of advice and I do try

and take it on board. Majority of the time she is correct,

so I'm interested to see what she does have to say.

So, erm, first impressions of Mae, what are they?

She seems delightful, bubbly, happy girl.

Yeah, no, she's... She's full of energy. Pretty.

Like, and we are compatible in so many ways.

We have a similar sense of humour,

everyone thinks we're the funniest here.

She's such a funny girl. And she's so quick witted.

Yeah. She's so clever, and I can see why we've been matched.

Well, I can see a spark with her myself, you know, immediately, yeah.

But thing is, the romantic spark isn't there.

And I just sort of see Mae as a good friend.

What's your first impressions on Moray?

He does seem funny. Yeah. Like, he has a funny little vibe about him.

Yeah, he is actually really funny, like... Yeah.

..we have, like, a really good, like, we have the same humour. Yeah.

And, um, yeah. Well, that was the biggest worry.

Cos you've got quite a sarcastic sense of humour.

No, he has and he's probably just as bad, to be fair.

But I won't lie, it's not been, erm...

# They say... # You OK?

# Time is always meant to heal... #

It's been so hard! And, like,

you're probably thinking like, "Oh, you're getting on so well

"and you must be in love and everything," but, like,

we're just friends. Oh. I was just so excited to come here

and, like, I felt like this was going to be it,

this is going to be the love that I finally deserve.

He basically said to me, like, he doesn't have that attraction.

Cos he was like, "I'd see you more as a little sister."

He says like "Oh, I just feel like I want to look after you."

And I was like, "Is that not what a husband does to a wife?"

But he was like, "No, it's like sister vibes."

And he says, "I look at you and I think, 'Oh, God you're so pretty,'

or, like, "You look nice today," and things like that,

"but not from a romantic urge perspective."

From first impressions I thought, like, yous did. Yeah.

And his mum was saying that he had a twinkle and I was like, "Aw."

I know. But, like, I've learnt a lot of lessons here but I'm just sad

because I really wanted it to work. We're so compatible in so many ways.

Yeah, but you don't want JUST compatible,

you want someone that's, "Oh, my God, you're amazing." I know.

And it's just clicking... That's what you want.

But he just seems so, like, perfect and, like, you know how hard it is

to find someone that I like. Just get back to Scotland,

we'll find another Scottish one, then. Yeah.

Having Sian here giving me this pep talk and making me realise

and remember who I am and what I deserve, it's, um,

it's given me a lot to think about.

It's been really hard because Mae has really liked me.

Yeah. So it is... But you never know, you know, with time...

No. No? Well, I'm obviously sad to hear that.

But at the end of the day there's no point leading somebody

up the garden path, as they sort of say.

So...if that's how you feel, you don't have to be here.

Mm-hm.

You've done your best. You've really given it a good shot.

So if you want to come home... Yeah. ..you can make that decision.

Don't worry.

You know. Don't worry.

You've given it your best. You've given it your best.

Haven't you?

That's all you can do.

That's all you can do in life is give it your best. Ah...

I know she lives in Scotland

but can I take Moray's mum home with me, please?

Now, it's a tough act to follow but Helen's friend Fran

is ready to dispense some island wisdom, too.

When it comes to advice with me and Fran,

like, she trusts me to do what is right for me

but she's always going to be upfront with me and remind me

of what I really want, because if there is anyone in this world

who knows that, it's my best mate.

She's definitely your type. Definitely. Yeah.

Seems like you've really got a cute... We do. Yeah? Yeah.

It was, like, chemistry, like, just immediate, it was crazy. Yeah.

But, of course, what did I have?

I had a cold sore. Oh, you had a cold sore.

And then obviously cos we couldn't kiss or anything for ages,

she, like, started to tell me, like, a little bit about...

Just it was a bit laddy. Like, you know. Like what?

"I banged this girl," and, like... Yeah, yeah. What?

A bit like as if we were 25-year-old blokes down the pub.

Yeah, that's weird. Having a beer. It was weird. Yeah.

It was weird. I just felt like she wasn't really mature enough...

Yeah. ..or, like... She wasn't... She's not deep enough.

Anyway, so we had a discussion about it. You know, I'm very vocal.

Yeah. Like, whereas she's not. She was very defensive.

Like, wasn't really taking in what I was saying.

She has sort of been like, you know, "I don't really feel like

"I can fancy you because we're not being intimate with each other."

The attraction normally comes first. First. Yeah.

OK. She'd started to think that because we hadn't had sex

I was like a prude or, like, whatever. Yeah.

And I was like, "You know nothing."

Like, "Let's not go there." The cold sore finally went. Mm-hm.

And I just sort of said to myself, "Do you know what?" Yeah.

"I do fancy her, I want to get laid." Yeah.

So we did it. And was it great?

And she has fallen in love with me ever since.

THEY LAUGH

But, no. She's very nice, from what I've just met of her. Mm.

Don't really like about the whole, "Don't know if I'm attracted

"to you because we haven't had sex yet." Yeah.

I just hope...

..that it continues. Yeah.

Because I think that's when it could possibly change.

The lad mentality. Mm.

I wouldn't want it to be like,

"Oh, well, now I have other opt..." Like, do you know what I mean? Yeah.

When we get back home. Yeah, exactly.

"I want you as my only option."

Yeah? Oh, no, don't. No, no. No, sorry. No, no, no, no.

I know. I know because I did have my second choice from the speed dating

come in. And then she sat at the table and someone was like,

"Why are you here, Anna?"

And she, like, looked at me and she was like,

"Because we had a connection, and I wanted to explore it."

She's flown across the world. She's, like, wanting me.

Like, trying to win me here. Yeah. And it was nice. Yeah.

But the thing is, Abby could maybe come out of her shell

and give me these things. Has she? You've... She has,

but it's a gentler process.

Sometimes when people do put it all on a plate for me, it's nice,

but I also get a bit bored of that. Yeah.

But also, going from first impressions...

..Anna's the more appealing, let's face it.

Not saying that you've made the wrong choice, I'm just being honest.

Yeah.

There are some big question marks over whether Abby and I will work

on the outside world. I think, until seeing Fran,

there've been, like, little anxieties in my stomach.

Whereas today, I feel like I've actually looked at it hard.

You know, black and white.

Oh. Oh. Hi, guys.

Hello. Have your ears been burning? How's it going?

Yeah, hope you've had... I hope you've had a good catch-up.

We have. We really have, haven't we? Yes, we have.

I have been asked to give you a little present, though. OK.

Oh. Oh.

You're going to have a video call with your sisters.

OK!

Oh, no. About to get emotional.

Yeah. She's a bit of a crier. I can't wait.

Little bit of a crier. No, babe, so nice to meet you.

Oh, you too, honestly.

Come here. Love you all.

I love you so much. Thank you. Thank you.

I needed this.

I think what today has made me feel is that I want it to work.

Whether it will...I don't know.

I don't know.

Speaking of wanting things to work, I hope the island wi-fi's all right

because with Fran on her way home,

Abby's about to have a call with her sisters.

God, this is so intense.

Hello!

Hello!

Hello! Anyway, this is Helen.

Hello, new voice! Hi!

Hi, Helen! How has it been?

Yeah, no, it's been great. Been getting on good?

I think she's speechless... Yeah.

We miss you so much. Yeah, we miss you.

Really hard not speaking to you or seeing you.

INDISTINCT

We're so proud of you, though.

Yeah, we can't believe that you stuck at it.

I'm going to leave you. OK, babe. I'm going to leave you so you can

have this...this FaceTime. OK. It's nice to meet you.

She seems nice. Yeah.

Not your usual type, though.

Not my usual type. Nor your usual type, no, but she seems nice. Yeah.

But have you been getting on? Yeah.

Yeah, no, we have. Do you know what? Yeah, I just really like her,

like, she's such a nice girl.

She's a strong woman, like, she knows what she wants.

Like, yeah, she's just really nice.

We did have, like, a little thing about, like, the kids thing

cos, like, initially she was like,

"Oh, I don't know, like, if I'd want kids."

But then obviously when we got into it a bit more, it was one of those

where she was like, "It needs to be with the right person.

"I want to have enough money, I want to have this situation,

"I need to have this."

Is it more of a, like, friends vibe? Or romantic?

No, it's a romantic vibe.

Oh, it's romantic. Yeah.

Yeah. You obviously get on really well.

We're a strong, strong couple compared to the rest. So...

One of the strongest. There's trouble in paradise elsewhere.

We cannot wait to see you. Can't wait to see you guys, either.

I love you guys lots. Bye, guys. Bye-bye, bye-bye.

Bye. Bye-bye-bye.

It's lovely to be able to speak to my sisters about Helen.

My sisters are very protective.

But they want what's best for me in the end.

They did mention she's not my typical type

but when I got into a bit of explanation about her

and how Helen is, I think they want it to work.

After weeks of not seeing them it's just nice to hear their perspective

on it and tell them everything. It's been amazing.

# This is what I'm fighting for... #

# Early in the morning I still get a little bit nervous... #

Friends and family may have brought joy to our honeymooners

but they also brought something else - realisation.

I feel like since I've been stranded,

Mae's always been the first person that I've thought of, I've put first

and I've still not found love

and it's only right that I have that chat with Mae.

Sian obviously gave me that pep talk and reminded me

how amazing I am and what I've got to offer someone.

It's bittersweet, but you know what? I've got this.

So how are you feeling?

We've had our better days than this.

You're an amazing person. I want you to know that.

You are, too. And I really do think highly of you.

I do, too, you.

# That look in your eye hits differently

# You've come to the point where you don't love me... #

It's been amazing and genuinely once in a lifetime and... Yeah.

..I'll never forget. Yeah.

And I'm so glad that I have done it with you

and had this experience with you.

But for me now, seeing my mum,

I definitely realise this is the perfect time... Yeah.

..for us to just call it quits here.

Yeah, I think the same.

Yeah, I'm ready to go back with Sian and see my mum and everyone.

This has been the experience of a lifetime.

But I know it's definitely only going to be friends.

Yeah.

Mae is a lovely girl.

And it's the best time to go, before things get a little bit sour,

because that would be the last thing either of us would want.

I'm just ready to go back with my mum now.

And then hopefully we can then just continue

this amazing friendship back home.

# I would rather you were happy

# Oh, even if that means without me... #

Oh, God this is so hard.

Come here. Oh, God.

# How do we make it better?

# Should we admit that I'm not in love? #

Yeah.

I am sad that we wasn't each other's person

but we gave it a good shot, so I'm happy to leave it on a high.

I deserve the world.

And I'm going to make a man really lucky one day.

I am emotionally available for a relationship,

it's just unfortunate that Mae wasn't the person for me.

# On the outside

# Of love... #

# Oh, yeah, all I need

# Oh, yeah, all I need

# Oh, yeah, all I need

# Oh, yeah... #

After Mae and Moray's departure yesterday,

for the remaining honeymooners it's another day in paradise.

# You're all I need

# All I need

# Oh, yeah, all I need... #

But over on one side of the island,

Georgina's feeling a little bit of tension.

Do you know what? You're not as tight as I thought you would be.

I've got a bit of a knot there, though. Yeah, you do.

I can feel that.

What do you think about where Sam and Hannah are?

I think they're in a good place.

Yeah, it was crazy talking about going home.

I think just, like, for me, like, getting home,

it's just having my routine back.

Being able to just, you know, go to the shop, go back to the gym,

you know, go see my family.

And then when we're home, we're going to have a couple of days of,

"Oh, my God, this is amazing." Yeah. And then give it a week

and we're going to be like, "I wish I was back.

"I'd do anything to sleep on a bed infested with sand flies."

Yeah, I know. So it's... Honestly, just for that sunset.

# Oh-oh-oh, nobody, nobody, nobody

# Nobody got you the way I do... #

With the end of the honeymoons in sight,

for Sam, future plans are on his mind.

It's not long before Hannah and I are back in the real world together.

It's definitely got me nervous about when we get back on the outside

because I so want this to work.

I'm very excited to introduce her to all my friends and my family

and to meet her friends and her family.

Yeah, from a romantic perspective, I'm excited.

# Nobody got you the way I do... #

I know we've only known each other like a couple of weeks now.

I feel like I've known you for a much longer time than I have,

cos of the intensity and I think, like,

I had quite high expectations for you coming into this.

But you've sort of exceeded them on a daily basis

and that's a really nice place to be.

Um...

I think where I'm at, despite all of the other noise that's

going on around us, is that I am falling for you.

And I'm very, very, very happy and proud to call you my wife.

Ah, that's really cute.

That's really sweet, thank you.

You're welcome.

To hear Sam say he's fallen for me is beautiful.

I feel the same, I struggle to say the words,

but I very much do feel the same

and I show him that with my actions.

You exceeded my expectations too.

You have to say that.

No, you really did, and I have high expectations.

Good. Yeah.

You're different to what I expected but in all the best ways possible.

Yeah, I like that.

# Maybe it's the loving in your eyes... #

Love is definitely in the air this morning.

And in a bid to spread the positive vibes, I've arranged another

double date, this time for Ini and David and Helen and Abby.

So cheers, guys. Let's have a good day. Cheers.

Cheers, cheers, lovely to have you here.

Nice to be here. Nice to see you guys.

Thank you. Ah, oh.

What's going on?

Obviously the last time we saw you, there was some heat

at the table of wanting answers.

Even though we have the connection, the attraction is

there, everything's just so easy, but I want to kind of stick with

being a friend and then take it from there on the outside world.

How does that work? What's the craic?

I'm trying to figure out the best way to do it

while I'm here with her.

How are you guys doing now?

We're friends. We're... Just friends?

On my part, I guess. More so. Yeah.

Is there any chance of, like, any rekindle later down the line?

Um, we'll find out, I guess.

Yeah.

As we stand right now, me and Ini, we are just friends.

I know there's probably more that we could explore.

Personally I believe there is hope for us once we leave this beach.

However, I haven't communicated that to Ini,

cos I don't want her to leave here with the hope.

And if it doesn't work out, it seems like I'm just leading her on.

Don't lose whatever it is that you found here with each other,

cos I do, hand on my heart, believe that had Abby

and I dated in the real world, there's no way we'd be dating now,

because at first I just didn't feel like you were fitting into that.

Mm-hm. But with Abby also being like,

"Well, to be honest, I don't know if you're it either,"

I think that took the pressure off and it was like

"OK, well, let's just have a good time." You know?

And then that day I feel, like, really shifted everything.

Yeah, it just sort of unfolded from there, the more

we got to know about each other and I was like, "OK, yeah, maybe."

That's crazy, your story is literally...

"Maybe this is it." ..ours in reverse.

So...

LAUGHTER

I think Helen's and Abby's relationship has really done

what it needed to do, like, it started off great,

went a bit down and went back up and that is what relationship is about.

It's bittersweet that they figured it out and we didn't,

because, yeah, I want to be with him.

But it's a very different dynamic.

Ooh. What have we got going on here?

What is it? Go for it, babes. Oi.

I want to know what they are.

ALL EXCLAIM

No date here is complete without a little twist.

And this one comes in the form of a tropical time machine.

Oh, my God. What is it?

SHE LAUGHS

It's the rating for the speed dating questionnaire.

When our honeymooners met for the first time they scored their

partner out of five based on their initial impressions of each other.

First up, Abby's score for Helen.

OK, right. "I found them significantly attractive, a four.

"We connected on an intellectual level, three."

"I could see myself in a relationship

"with this person, a three." OK.

But I think that's fair enough, babe.

I'm just saying I'm going to keep this. Ha.

So that when we have little arguments on the outside world,

I'll just put this up on the wall.

You do me? Yeah.

OK. OK, let's see.

Oh, that's cu... I mean...

This is solid, this. Wow.

"I found them physically attractive, five."

Oi-ay. Oi-oi.

"I could see myself in a relationship

"with this person, four. Fancy her a lot."

Ah!

Thanks, babe. That's lovely.

Well, come on, then.

I'm scared.

Now, how did David score Ini?

"I found them physically attractive, three."

Ooh.

Ini is absolutely not a three, she's a five across the board.

"I like their sense of humour and they made me laugh, five."

Um, "I would like to see them again and get to know them some more."

It was three then scribbled out to a four!

Yeah, cos I was like, "Nah, I do but..."

Sometimes you need a little minute. Sometimes we speak too soon.

I was like, "Actually, no, I do." Yeah, yeah.

Um, "I could see myself in a relationship with this person,

"three."

"I wasn't fully attracted on first sight.

"Love that we align spiritually."

Though not my exact physical type... "Exact physical type..."

..but you never know. But you never know.

I've seen a lot of threes.

Honestly, it's a bit ego bruising.

His comment at the end was really nice but those threes are annoying.

The truth shall always prevail.

Oh, saucy. OK. Yours was so icky.

"I found him physically attractive."

Then she put a dash. "So much." And she put five.

"I like their sense of humour and they made me laugh, five."

"We have similar interests, five." OK, it was all fives.

Let's...let's move on. Basically, everything is a five.

What was your comment? Um, "He is my husband."

Aw!

"I really like that we have the same values and faith,

"the same background and we bounce off each other very well.

"In fact, we did..." She wrote, "I'm in love."

LAUGHTER

Go on, girl, just say it. Say it how it is, darling.

So, I'm sure it's nice to see, I mean... It is, it is, it is.

No, it just shows, like,

she was just intentional from the very start.

I wasn't expecting to see what I saw.

I think I was... I was speechless, I didn't have words to say,

I was, like, "Oh, you really did come in this

"with super intentions, you really saw me a certain way,"

and me knowing that, it's not playing out the way

that she probably envisioned, it does hurt to see

and it does bother me cos it's someone I care about.

# When we get together

# Gonna be good vibes... #

After some enlightening double dates

and with everyone back on their beaches,

surely it's time to kick back and relax?

Christina! Is that Danielle? Oh, my God!

Maybe not.

# It's a good day Good day coming... #

I think it's my mum.

It looks like my mum.

Mum! # It's a good day coming. #

SHE SHRIEKS LOUDLY

Something tells me Ini's happy to see a familiar face.

SHE SHRIEKS LOUDLY

# I been running... #

Ohh...

The first to set foot on the island are Georgina's bestie Christina

and Matt's cousin Danielle.

Hi, baby!

Oh, my God, it's my best friend Christina,

like, I cannot believe she's here!

Danielle, this is my wife Georgina.

Hello. Lovely to meet you. Nice to meet you.

Seeing Danielle, I got a little bit choked up.

Managed to keep it in, though.

Next to arrive on Honeymoon Island

are Hannah's mum Lisa and Sam's best mate Adam.

Seeing my mum is crazy

cos she was the last person I expected to see here.

Yo!

Ini and David's relationship hasn't always been as transparent

as those crystal-clear waters

but will her friend Tas and his friend Josh give them some clarity?

THEY GREET EACH OTHER

Ini! Shut up, girl.

I just can't believe it, like, a piece of home is here with me,

it just doesn't feel real.

# Little bit of sunshine... #

This is... Oh, my God.

Name, Ini and David. Oh, wow. Our photo did get a bit wet

so this was once our outfits that you're seeing when we were happy.

Oh.

Let's go. So...

Let's have a look at your morning view.

Oh, my word. It's not bad, is it? That's not bad.

It really is lovely. Any skinny dipping?

Do you know what, we actually haven't. No, we haven't.

He's just always naked. I've never seen testicles so much in my life.

Sorry. No, shouldn't say that in front of.... No, like, he...

That's not exactly how I thought my first meeting with her mum

was going to go down. She's taken it well,

so, great signs for me so far.

Always good to get the nudity chat out of the way early doors

with the mother-in-law.

And the chat on Matt and Georgina's beach is just as ballsy.

So sorry, I'm going to ask you so many questions,

cos this is my friend and I need to make sure she's in good hands.

100% not a problem. Ah.

How do you feel about my friend?

We do have that, like, you know, that crazy attraction to each other.

Yeah. She's, like, the sweetest soul that I've ever met.

Like, everything, everything she does, like,

she thinks about others first.

I love hearing that because I feel like you don't tell me this stuff!

Christina grilling Matt, I was like, "Oh, my God!"

But I'm here for it.

Do you see yourself with Georgie long term? 100%, yeah.

How do we express how we feel about each other? Is that something

that you guys do? Like... Yeah, yeah. She's in good hands.

Yeah. She'd better be.

Getting this grilling from Christina, it's a bit, uh,

it's took me back a little bit. I didn't quite expect it.

I want to make sure that, like, you're on the same page with where

she's at because, like, I don't want there to be any confusion.

I don't really know what's going on.

Sweating. He's like, "It's the heat."

So, yeah, this is our, um, toilet.

Oh, shi...

Boy. I've got to get water. I can smell it.

No, you can't smell it. I can smell it.

Do you want to rub on me? Have you got perfume?

THEY LAUGH

Keen to make a good impression on his mother-in-law Lisa,

Sam makes sure his shorts are secure and settles down for a chat.

Last thing I was expecting this morning was seeing

your beautiful faces.

I could tell your voice from a mile off. Yeah, I'm glad you could.

I've got question.

What did you think when you first saw Hannah at the aisle?

I was bricking it cos, like, I was pretty sure I was going to get you

cos that's all I wanted and that's all I'd said I'd wanted.

But you never really know and then I hear, "Oh, my God, it's suit boy."

LAUGHTER

And all the nerves went at that point. Pure relief.

Yeah, it was good. Pure relief. It was a fun day, wasn't it? Yeah.

It was, like, the relief of, like, "Oh, OK, the scary part is done,"

but then, no, the scary part is, like, yet to come. Just started.

This is just the start.

Being on this island, you're not able to message the girls,

the group chat, your mum and get that sort of clarification

on things that are going on in your head. And my mum,

she's come all this way to check in

on me and make sure I'm good.

So it's just unreal.

What are your first impressions of my husband?

Well, I think he's very handsome.

I think you look very lovely together,

you make a very beautiful pair, which is lovely.

You've obviously got a real closeness and ease with each other.

Mm-hm. Which is really nice to see. Though, have you

kind of experienced any challenges?

So, basically, his ex, Megan, she's here.

Oh, God. Yeah, like, all of a sudden I've got my husband

and his ex-girlfriend having, like, back and forth.

"Nah-nah-nah, nah-nah-nah."

And I'm like, "Shit, I'm the third party in this."

Like, you know, like, I thought Megan was the new girl coming in

but all of a sudden, like, you're sort of transported... Yes, yeah.

..to their relationship. And, like, even when she was, like, "No, Sam,"

and, like, you realise the familiarity,

it sort of crushed my sort of vision of... Of course.

..like, there's clearly unfinished business, like,

is he ready to get married to me?

I went straight in with the negatives

because Megan being involved this early on

in mine and Sam's relationship is so unhinged,

I'm so confused what she's doing here.

You know, it's a horrible situation

and I feel like it's taken the zing out of, like, me a little bit

and I'm a bit worried it's taken the zing out of me and Sam.

Are you happy? Mate, I'm very, very happy.

Yeah? I'm very happy.

It seems like you guys have got a nice bond already.

But, yeah, mate, I mean it's not been without its challenges. Yeah.

Sort of big elephant in the room... Yeah. ..would be Megan, my ex.

She's actually now here. Oh, my God. I know, mate.

That's... That's surprised me massively.

Yeah, cos obviously you met her and know her

and it just seems very out of character.

I didn't think she would do that. She's come out pretending that,

or making out that I've broken up with her

to come on this, which is not the case at all.

It does really surprise me and, you know,

when you come out, she's probably coming out for one of two reasons.

Obviously, to potentially wind you up.

Yeah. Or she's... Maybe she's looking for love.

Who knows? But... Who knows, mate?

I mean, you know, in every relationship

you've got your good and bad bits but you ended pretty well,

as far as I know. Yeah.

And, look, I don't think she's a malicious person.

I don't know any more. But she's out here being like,

"I've got your best interests at heart." And I'm like,

"You don't, so why are you pretending?"

Yeah, and that's the thing for me, like, she's a nice girl,

I don't think she would do it maliciously but I guess if you can

get over this, you can get over most things. Exactly. You know.

Did you feel supported by the group?

Yeah, very supported by the group, very supported by Sam.

And I just thought, do you know what? Like, I don't even need

to overthink this, let it be, it's a good thing that I don't care.

It can only be a good thing. Yeah. You know?

And I think for him to look at you and see that person

who's secure, cos confidence is a very attractive trait,

and that is something that, you know, you needed a bit more of

coming into this and it looks like you've got that, which is brilliant.

If that's what comes out of this, that you've found that

you are enough and that if it is the right person,

then nothing's going to get in the way of that, really.

He is, honestly, he's, like, a very lovely human.

And I think that's... He.. Like, he's...

He's openly said that he's falling in love with me.

Aw. Definitely falling for him

but I'm just scared to sort of say it. Ah.

Make beautiful children.

THEY LAUGH

One day.

I think my mum has definitely, you know, given him the approval.

It's amazing because she's not seen me in a relationship

for a long time,

so seeing me be so comfortable with the man that I wanted,

yeah, I can see how happy she is. So, yeah, a happy mum, a happy me.

She seems lovely. Yeah, she's a good girl, mate. Like, really nice.

Can you chat about deep stuff that you need to talk about?

Yeah, we really can

and it's, like, the most open I've been in a relationship.

She's someone that's got layers, that's had some stuff

that's gone wrong in her life but has dealt with it.

No, mate, it's been really nice

and, like, I think I am falling in love with her, which is...

I'm happy for you. ..what I wanted, mate. Really happy for you.

I haven't seen you this happy in a long time.

Thanks, mate. Appreciate that.

It's been really nice to get to introduce friends and family

into our relationship.

It's got me excited to introduce all the rest of my friends

and family and start to meet more of her friends and family.

It definitely feels like we're taking the next step

in our relationship, and I'm excited to get back to the UK

and continue the streak.

Sam may be desperate to get home with his wife,

but across the island, Georgina's desperate to get to gossip

with her bestie Christina.

So, is he your number one?

He was my number one choice, yeah. I know!

So, was that like initial attraction, then? Oh, yeah.

Because on our date, on speed dating, there was so much chemistry.

Yeah. And...

And you were dreaming about him? Yeah, I was.

But I couldn't have been matched with a better person,

just physically, emotionally. Yeah.

He is the kind of person where I would say I would be proud to,

A, call you my husband, but also be proud to have you

as the father of my kids, do you know what I mean?

Aw, that's so cute.

The first few days we, like, could not keep our hands off each other.

Hot and heavy. Yeah, obsessed with each other.

Are you still obsessed?

Yeah, but...

But? Yeah, there is a but.

What's the but? So, after a couple of days, he, like, pulled back.

OK. Like, emotionally.

How did you feel?

Yeah, I mean, like, I don't feel...

Aw, are you going to cry?

I didn't feel good, cos I thought it was me.

And I was too nervous to, like, bring it up with him. Mm-hm.

You know, when you're like I don't want to know the answer.

Did you confront it?

So, he really reassured me.

He was like, "This is really hard.

"It's nothing to do with you." Yeah.

"I'm really struggling with the sand, the sea."

So, what's the plan with regards to, like, future long term?

Like, you guys live in different places, no?

Yeah, yeah. Well, he's in Southampton,

and I'm obviously in Battersea.

Is that going to become an issue?

Like, I'm just factoring in distance.

I'm factoring in how often are you going to see each other.

Like, you said, obviously, he pulled back and then you had to ask him

for affection. Hmm.

But even the smallest of things can become the biggest of things...

Big things. ..in the real world.

How do you navigate that when you're back home?

I'm going to have to see what he's like, first of all.

But I think that if we both want to make it work, it'll work.

He may not have taken to stranded life like a turtle to water

but will a chat with cousin Danielle make Matt realise all that sun,

sand and stickiness has been worth it?

How's it been going, then?

She seems like a really nice girl, to be fair. Yeah, she is.

She ain't got a bad bone in her body.

She's the complete opposite of what I've always gone for,

but what I've always gone for has never... Never worked out.

No. No?

Erm... How do you feel about her as a person?

I think she's a lovely person, and I think she's very caring.

I think she's very supportive.

I think she's everything that I said that I would need.

I think we've built something that you can...that we can then

take to the outside and sort of see if it works there.

Yeah.

But we're not...

It's weird to say it. Like, we're married and we've spent every

single day together, but we don't actually know each other that well.

You don't know how, like, each other's going to react to stress

or stuff like that, so...

Is anything worrying you, like something specific?

I think it's probably more so... At the minute, it's probably more so

how we're going to work through not spending every day together.

Is there a bit of a distance, like?

Yeah, two hours. Two-hour distance. Yeah.

We need to see if the distance works, but then you can't, like,

say if it will or won't because you're not there.

Yeah, it's different.

If you were to ask me now like, "Would you do a two-hour drive?"

I'd say, you know, yeah, of course I would.

But you ask me after, like, a difficult week at work... Yeah.

..and I'm stressed out,

I think it's more so that.

That's my main concern, about the distance.

It's sort of hit now that this isn't real.

We're going to go home, we're going to go back to our friends,

we're going to go back to our family.

You know, can me and G make this work when we get home?

Is communication going to crumble when we're so far away?

I don't know yet.

Despite the temperature here, things between David and Ini

have cooled in the last few days,

and Ini can't wait to get a second opinion from her mate, Tas.

Tas has always been a very big supporter of my life.

She's always very encouraging about myself, like, who I am.

She doesn't shy away from the truth either.

What was your first impressions of David?

I mean, I think, physically, he is your type. Yeah.

I think he's handsome.

And you guys look good together, like, really good, like, sexy.

How do you feel?

Let me tell you the full story. OK.

So, obviously, when I went to speed date, I was like, yeah,

that's definitely the person.

Yeah, you were literally telling us...like, your husband. 100%.

So, when we got to the aisle, and I was like,

"Oh, were you expecting me?"

And he was like "Oh, 50/50."

And I was like, "To who?"

So, wait, hold on. Were you his number one pick?

No.

There was this other girl, called Taniae.

But one thing I have to give him is, his actions showed so different.

Really? Yeah.

So, like, when he said, "Actually, no, I am attracted to you,"

his actions followed through with that.

So, who likes who more here?

Is this one-sided, is this one-way?

I think the problem is, at the start he was really showing all that,

and I was more like... Reserved.

Yeah. OK, back-seat.

And now it's flipped. Right.

I think, as we're spending more time here, he's just getting

more agitated and irritated with me and the space.

Yeah.

But I'm, like, still affectionate, like kissy, lovey, all that stuff.

But I think for him, progressively, that's like suffocating almost.

And we went to a Couples Cove thing,

so where all the couples meet up,

and he was telling the whole group, like, right now we're friends,

and if it happens on the outside, it happens.

But if not, then not.

I can't begin to tell you how relieved I'm feeling right now.

I'm like...

HE SIGHS

It's my boy Josh, and, I prayed about this, because I need a voice,

and I feel like it's just the perfect timing.

Chat to me, man. Where to begin, where to begin?

So, first of all, start from the beginning. All right, cool, cool.

What do you want to know?

When you first saw her... Yeah. ..what you thinking?

You know what, honestly, I was relieved it was her.

I know that me an Ini share the same faith in God.

Then I realised I'm actually attracted to the girl,

and I think it's all the things that we shared in common,

in that part of God, and there was chemistry and the banter.

It just made it easier for me to be like, "Oh."

OK, wait, so...

You said something about faith. Hmm.

What Ini's faith? Oh, Ini's Christian.

She's Christian? She's Christian, she's Christian. OK.

But do you know what, I can't lie, when we got off the boat

and she was all, you know, happy that Tas was there,

she seemed like a nice person. Mm.

Very, very bubbly.

But I guess you know more. Talk to me.

You know what happened at the aisle? What happened at the aisle?

She asked me, "Were you expecting anybody else other than me?"

And I was like, "Erm, it was 50/50, could've been you

"or some other girl." Like, I didn't know who

I was going to be paired with.

And she really held on with that.

And I think, because of that foundation, it probably took so long

for her to open up more to me and break down certain walls.

But by that point, it threw me off. Yeah.

But I've been very vulnerable,

the most vulnerable and honest I've ever been.

She listens to me, but I don't think she understands my feelings.

Oh, man, shit. Sounds...

It sounds like a lot.

Could you actually see this working?

Like, have you really sat with yourself and been like,

"This is it"?

As I am right now, I want us to work, I do. Yeah.

But reality?

I don't know if it will.

You need someone who's going to, like, love you down.

Yeah. And is going to be there and consistent.

And I think if you have that consistency from the get-go,

like that one comment about the 50/50,

I think it did trigger you.

I want love.

Aw, babe.

I feel like I want love.

But I've never...

..felt like I will get love.

Do you get it? Like...

I can never picture myself receiving the kind of love you...

..you stand for, do you get it?

like, I know my friends and my family love me, but...

Like, a man has never loved me like that. Do you get it?

So, like...

I just...

This place is so silly. Ini.

You're so deserving of it.

Tas, stop.

This place is sick.

It makes people cry.

But you're so deserving, Ini.

Listen to me. You are incredible.

You're beautiful, you're intelligent.

Like, you're all these things.

But really believe it when you say it. Really believe it.

Don't ever, ever question yourself at all, babe.

And you've learnt so much about yourself on this experience.

Take that. Yeah.

Men are not mind-readers. Mm.

They're stupid.

They are so stupid, God dang.

But I think the best way for you to not have these issues

is just trust your gut. Mm.

And speak from your heart.

Even if it sounds silly, just do it.

See where it goes, cos he might be a slow burner.

It's compromise at the end of the day.

And it's working through it, yeah.

And I think you're compromising,

and I hope he is also doing the same, but... Yeah.

Just enjoy it. Yeah.

And, yeah, see what happens.

You're married, so this is... Yeah.

This is it. Mm.

And for me, on the wing, I'm looking at this like, mm...

Long term, is this something that could actually work?

Cos, for me, that's key for you. Yeah.

And I think it's possible.

But, I mean, what do you need to manage this?

I feel like, honestly, what it is I've felt like I've needed is space.

Like, you know when you've...

There's so much happening, you think, OK, you know what,

I just need space away from this person, so I can get away

and make a sound judgment, or just be by myself and process all

the information, process everything that's been happening.

You're stranded on an island... Mm-hm.

..with one person. Yeah.

Like, and you need space away from that one person?

Like, I'm not getting mad, but, like, deep, what you're saying.

You're running away or what?

Sounds like there's a lack of effort somewhere,

that you're struggling to connect. Mm.

I'm not getting honeymoon vibes from you lot.

Mm. Do you know what I mean?

My opinion is that this space that you're looking for is obviously

more here than it is...

Do you know what I mean? Actually looking for space.

Mm. Like you're trying to get away from something,

or else you wouldn't need space. That's very telling.

Hmm...

I don't think she's the one.

You've come in firing shots... I'm not firing shots.

And you're expecting me to just sit there and take that?

What more can I do? That's terrible.

It's a complete and utter mess.

I wanted comfort, and I didn't really feel like

I was in your mind at all at that point.

Sam being annoyed at me?

How dare you?

Your time on Honeymoon Island and with each other

is drawing to a close.

It's emotional. I'm separating from Helen,

not really knowing which way it's going to go with each other.

Bye.

I know right now it's a bit shaky,

but hopefully we can resurface.

Who knows?

This now is where our real test begins.

Never say never.

I just hope last night does not ruin the future of our relationship.
