ITV2 Love Island fans annoyed after date 'mistake'

Love Island fans have been left annoyed by tonight's dates with the two new bombshells.

Tonight saw the two new Lukes enter the villa and have a date with two girls of their choosing.

But instead of heading out somewhere to enjoy some time together away from prying eyes, the dates took place by the pool in the villa, with all the other islanders looking on.

And viewers were annoyed as they thought it meant the dates lacked drama that the series needed.

Ellie said: "Has ITV not got enough budget for them to leave the villa for a date and to have the other islanders awkwardly watching them."

Danielle Wilson said: "Wish they’d stop letting everyone watch the dates or watch the girls meeting the new boys. So much more would happen if they knew eyes weren’t on them!!"

Lauuu said: "Oh my god, a date??? IN THE VILLA WITH EVERYONE WATCHING? BOOOOOORING."

And @princessmel_87 said: "How awks & cringe is it to have a date right there with everyone else watching?!"

But despite it seeming like the dates weren't very dramatic it led to conflict later on, with both Leanne and Paige saying it had made them question their existing coupling.

Paige said that Justin Bieber lookalike had turned her head because he was "older and into music."

*Love Island continues at 9pm on ITV2 tomorrow
