LOVE ISLAND is officially back on our screens tonight and a first look photo hints at a major twist.
For the first time since season one, it looks like the girls are in charge with the first coupling ceremony.
In first look photos for the first episode, new host Maya Jama arrives in style via helicopter – before joining the awaiting men who are already gathered at the firepit.
Other photos see the girls arrive with Maya one-by-one… suggesting for the first time in years, the ladies will have the reins in the first coupling up.
Traditionally, the ladies are lined-up with the boys coming in one-by-one, but it seems it's time to give the girls control.
Who they pick will be revealed in tonight's show, which will kickstart the second winter series of the beloved dating franchise.

For the first time ever, fans have been left in charge of who to pick for the first bombshell of the series too – footballer Tom Clare, or law firm administrator Ellie Spence.
Put up for the vote via the show's app, the results will be revealed in due course.
Will the bombshell shake up the villa, or will the ladies' choices prove to be something they feel worth fighting for?
