Good lord, the new series starts on Monday, how time flies

11 new contestants for the fourth series of Love Island have been revealed. Fresh out of the oven, get em while they're hot. Producers apparently used Tinder to source some of the recruits. The 2018 edition of the absurdly popular constructed reality show will run for eight weeks and be hosted by Caroline Flack. The new cast includes your bread and butter personal trainers, models and trash TV journeymen as well as a doctor (but have they read Sapiens like Camilla??). And yes, Danny Dyer's daughter is there. https://twitter.com/LoveIsland/status/1001210252472205312 Your freshly baked contestants, in alphabetic order, are:
