<\/p>\nThe wait is finally over! After postponing their launch show, Love Island All Stars is returning to TV screens – with the show confirming the first episode will air tomorrow.<\/p>\n
The show had been scheduled to air on Monday 12 January, but while many of us had prepared to be curled on the sofa with popcorn in hand, ITV announced on Saturday 10 January that the show had been postponed. The decision came after South Africa\u2019s Western Cape (where the villa is located) was hit hard by wildfires.<\/p>\n
A statement from ITV read: \u2018Further to a production evacuation owing to ongoing wildfires in the area, our assessment of the location site has concluded that filming will need to be postponed. Health and safety is our greatest priority and will always come first, and therefore the transmission of\u00a0Love Island: All Stars\u00a0will be delayed until a date to be confirmed.’<\/p>\n
The wildfires have certainly proved a devastating start to the year for South Africa. An update made on Sunday morning saw ‘good progress’ made along the border of Groeneweide and Panorama, however day five of the Stanford fire remained ‘challenging.’<\/p>\n
When will All Stars begin? Will there be an episode tonight? Here’s what we know…<\/p>\n
