Love Island full release schedule: From what time it's on, to why you won't see the show on Saturday
It's almost that time. The Love Island Villa is just hours away from opening once again to a whole new group of singles looking for their summer of love, guaranteed to have us entertained as the show celebrates its 10th anniversary. And as the show marks a decade of cracking on, eggs in one basket and 'got a text', we reckon there's going to be plenty of surprises in store this season.
So before we start sharing theories and memes in the group chat, this is all the essential watching information you need, ahead of the series starting tonight, to ensure you don't miss a minute of grafting and pies.
Love Island airs every day of the week apart from Saturday nights. Following Sunday night's episode each week, Love Island: Aftersun will air where host Maya Jama will be joined by that week's dumped Islanders and the Aftersun panelists Sam Thompson, Indiyah Polack, Amy Hart and new additions Ash Holme and Joe Baggs to discuss that week's events in the villa.
Since Love Island first began the show has never aired a new episode on a Saturday night, instead a roundup of the not-yet-seen funny moments and outtakes from that week's filming is shown in an hour long episode called Unseen Bits.
Previous contestants have revealed we don't get to see a fresh new episode on Saturday because the Islanders get the day off from filming and cleaners head into the Villa to do a major clean.
"What happens is, it gives them a day to clean the villa, and you take your mics off, and normally we go to the beach," Kem Cetinay explained on This Morning back in 2017.
Every night Love Island will air at 9pm BST. Some nights the episodes will be exactly an hour long, others an hour and 5 mins, and in some instances, like tonight's launch show [9 June], the episode will be 90 minutes long.
Love Island will be shown on ITV2 and ITVX, with all episodes available for catchup on ITVX.
While not 100 per cent confirmed as of yet, Love Island usually runs for around eight weeks.
Love Island starts tonight on ITV2 and ITVX at 9pm

The most iconic Love Island bombshells of all time, as Toni Laites makes season 12 debut
Season 12 of Love Island kicked off tonight (Monday 9th June), with the starting line-up making their way into the villa. In a new twist, the girls were made to pick the boy they wanted to couple up with just from their dating profiles alone. Once the girls had chosen their matches, in walked the boys and the fun really began, with the couples getting to know one another. But nothing stays sweet for long on Love Island, as the first bombshell later entered to shake things up. Introducing Toni Laites, a 24-year-old pool cabana server from Connecticut. "Good evening UK! Surprise!' Toni declared upon her entrance, causing quite the stir amongst the boys and some concern from the girlies, who soon learned that one of their boys would be stolen right there and then! Toni's entrance got us thinking about some of the greatest bombshells who have graced our screens. From Ekin-Su to Maura Higgins and Molly-Mae, here's some late arrivals who we can't stop thinking about.

How to watch ‘Love Island' U.K. from the U.S. tonight
Summer is about to heat up, and so is your streaming schedule. A new season of Love Island (U.K.) premieres Monday, June 9, on ITV2 (and streams on ITVX). Season 12 (or Series 12, for British folks) features a new cast of sexy singles searching for love in the Majorca villa. Maya Jama returns as host of the prolific reality series, which will air new episodes six nights a week (Sunday to Friday) throughout the summer. Love Island will eventually stream on Hulu in the U.S., but if you don't want to dodge spoilers on the internet until you can catch up, we've got you covered. Here's how to watch Love Island early from the U.S. And if you're looking for more info on Love Island USA, we've got a Love Island guide for you too! Love Island kicked off its summer season with the U.S. series premiere on June 3. Now it's time for the star of the Love Island universe, Love Island U.K., which premieres this Monday, June 9. New episodes of Love Island will drop six nights a week, Sunday through Friday, at 9 p.m. BST — that's 4 p.m. ET for U.S. viewers, if you plan on tuning in live with a VPN. Love Island is broadcast in the U.K. on ITV2 and streams on ITVX (and on a three-day delay on Hulu for viewers in the U.S.). The U.K. series typically lasts eight weeks, but ITV has yet to confirm the exact duration of the show this season. The series will air new episodes Sunday through Friday. The full cast of Love Island Series 12 has been announced, and one islander has already been removed from the lineup! Kyle Ashman, 22, was announced and then promptly removed from the Love Island cast following information about his arrest in connection with a machete attack.

You can also catch all of Love Island USA in the U.K. on ITVX. So if you don't want to pay for Peacock or Hulu, and you want to watch the U.K. series anyway, a VPN plus a free ITVX account may be your best (and cheapest) option.
