Love Island viewers slam 'pathetic' reunion and urge bosses to make changes

Love Island fans were far from impressed by the this season's closing show as the islanders met up in front of the camera together for one last time.

There had been rumours the show would be full of drama after an apparent bust-up between Coco Lodge and Summer Botwe.

But fans were left disappointed as the drama aired was quickly shut down and fizzled out.

Halfway during the Reunion episode, Laura's regular AfterSun guest Darren Harriott decided to have a chat with Billy Brown who was sat with Coco, Summer and Josh Le Grove.

And the drama was said to be so intense that ITV bosses decided not to air the dramatic row, much to the dismay of the loyal viewers.

Elsewhere, there were criticisms of the "cringy" scene in which comedian Darren Harriott asked Jay Younger to showcase his chiselled torso to the audience.

Then, the After Sun co-host was seen twerking with Danica Taylor with fans saying it was about time the bosses stopped dancer Danica needing to share her moves at every opportunity.

And others complained at how much air time Joel Corry and Becky Hill got throughout the show as the pair gave a live performance of their new song.

Throughout the hour-and-a-half special, fans let their feelings known with many not sitting on the fence.

One user on Twitter wrote: "I tried to enjoy this reunion… I tried so damn hard but it’s pathetic #LoveIsland"

Another fumed: "So the reunion flopped again. @LoveIsland how are you so incompetent at asking the most basic questions. U didn’t even know about the summer & coco drama so u got handed drama. Literally pathetic, small utubers could do a better job thn these big paid producers #loveislandreunion"

A third tweeted: "What a load of sh**e this reunion was #LoveIsland," while a fourth slammed: "The worst part of this reunion is the fact I’m never gonna get the hour and a half back in my life again. Worst sh**e I’ve seen. #loveisland"

Other fans of the show decided to give the bosses a few ideas of their own in how they could fix future reunions.

One Twitter user chimed in: "worst reunion ever! they need to fire laura immediately and production needs to stop being pathetic #LoveIsland"

Another claimed they couldn't even watch it, adding: "I’ve had to change the channel who decided to make the reunion so awkward they need better presenters #LoveIsland"
