Love Island producers confirm the popular show will run for two series next year

Jordan and Anna...if you know what that is in reference to then you will want to keep reading.

ITV2's Love Island has taken over social media (and people's lives) once again with another explosive series.

The biggest revelation of the show so far has to be when some of the girls found out Edinburgh was actually in Scotland.

When it's all over fans are left feeling at a loss, asking: "What do you every night at 9pm"?

But you won't have to wait a whole 12 months because producers have confirmed that the show will run for two series in 2020.

That means that by early in the new year Love Island will be back.

This time it will be in an all new location, touching down in South Africa in a brand new villa for some winter sun.

The summer series will then return to Europe for a summer of love closer to home

Now on its fifth series, the show has a record-breaking number of viewers tuning in.

Off-screen, #LoveIsland also continues to dominate social media when a new episode airs, as viewers head online to discuss the drama.

Paul Mortimer, Head of Digital Channels and Acquisitions at ITV, said: "Off the back of a record-breaking year, we're delighted to be bringing an extra series of our biggest and sunniest show to the 2020 schedule.

"Love Island has proven yet again to be the perfect format that engages younger audiences.

"In response to this viewer appetite, a new batch of young singletons will deliver some highly anticipated post-Christmas romance and drama from our new and luxurious location."
