LOVE Island returned with a bang last night as a new batch of singletons bid to find love in the sun.
Over the years the dating hit has become famed for infamous fire pit chats, slow-mo villa entrances and explosive recouplings.
However over 11 series, one show legend has continued to give Love Island fans proper vibes.
Iain Stirling, 36, joined the ITV show in 2015 and previously co-starred with wife Laura Whitmore, 39, before Maya Jama, 29, took the helm last year.
The Scots comic has entertained viewers with his side-splitting puns and playful jibes towards the cast.
And last night was no exception with a string of confectionary quips being hurled at chiselled sweet seller Sean Stone, 24.
Fans laid it on factor 50 as they rushed online to praise the Scots comic.
One said: “Iain is killing me already, I love him.”
