Production

edit

During the final of the previous series on 23 February 2020, it was confirmed that Love Island would return for a seventh series due to air later in the year. However, on 4 May 2020, Love Island announced the cancellation of the summer 2020 show due to the COVID-19 pandemic."[5] It was later confirmed that the show would not be airing a winter version of the series in 2021 due to uncertainties regarding the pandemic and international travel. On 4 March 2021, ITV confirmed that the show would return in the summer after an 18-month hiatus.[6] In April 2021, during the application process, it was reported that LGBT contestants were being encouraged to apply for the first time, via dating app Tinder, however in June, ITV commissioner Amanda Stavri stated that the inclusion of LGBT contestants presents "logistical difficulties".[7][8] The first 10-second trailer for the series aired on 29 May 2021 featuring presenter Laura Whitmore breaking a heart-shaped fire alarm with a hammer, followed by the tagline "This is not a drill".[9] A full length trailer was released on 5 June 2021.[10] On 16 June 2021, ITV released details of its duty of care protocols for the new series, with detailed welfare plans in place to support participants before, during and after filming.[11][12] Some of the episodes in this series were aired outside of the usual 9pm timeslot due to Euro 2020.[citation needed]

edit

Official ratings are taken from BARB which include ITV2 +1 and any playback within 7 days of the original broadcast.[72] Because the Saturday episodes are "Unseen Bits" episodes rather than nightly highlights, these are not included in the overall averages. Week 3’s Sunday episode which aired on 11 July went up against 30 million viewers watching the UEFA Euro 2020 Final.[73]
