Love Island Australia will hit our screens this evening and become our latest TV obsession.
The hit show looked to be in jeopardy when the pandemic struck and travel was banned.
But the enterprising souls at ITV have made sure we'll get a reality fix by screening the first series of Love Island Australia.
Filmed in 2018, the trials and tribulations of the wannabe famous as they strive to find love will be sure to keep us entertained during lockdown.

Despite its name, the show wasn't actually filmed down under, instead all the contestants are from there.
Although the sizzling sunshine seems like the perfect backdrop to some drama, the first season of the show was actually filmed in Majorca, Spain.
The islanders were pretty close to their British counterparts and it's easy to think they got the better end of the deal when it comes to the villa.
The stunning space with ocean views overlooks the Bay of Pollensa and includes a hot tub, swimming pool and private cinema room.
Ahead of the show returning to our screens, we've take a look inside the villa and investigated how to visit it once travel restrictions are loosened.
Where is Love Island Australia filmed?
The first series of the Australian spin off was filmed in Majorca.

The second series was filmed in Fiji as producers said it made it easier to make changes to the show by flying in people quicker from Australia.
Much like their UK counterparts, the stunning space has a huge swimming pool.
For the purposes of the show, producers created a massive bedroom where they slept together.
And obviously there was a fire pit for all their dramatic recouplings and fiery rows.
Can you book the villa?
Happily, you can. The stunning space is available for all your holiday needs.

It even includes a wine cellar to make sure you really relax.
The swanky holiday home costs a whopping £1690 a night, so you'll have to be feeling flush.
But it can house up to 12 guests so you secure it for £140 per night per person if you gather enough of your friends.
And there's lots to take advantage of with a private gym and extremely luxurious surroundings.
Hopefully you'll avoid the drama that we're inevitably set to see next week.
How can I travel there?
The million dollar question for lots of restless Brits right now.
Unfortunately, the Foreign Office advises against all non-essential travel right now.

But this is expected to change very soon - with travel potentially allowed to low-risk countries soon.
And Spain is set to open to international tourists from July 1.
Airlines are gearing up to resume flights abroad from next month.
But you'll be expected to quarantine for two weeks upon your return to the UK.
Anyone found flouting this could be fined £1,000 and Border Patrol will ensure you've filled out a form before leaving the airport.
So it seems that summer holidays could be back on the cards this year.
And happily, staying in a villa is likely to beat a hotel whilst strict social distancing rules stay in place.
