But in terms of what\u2019s surprised me, I think they must be loving it \u2013 just drama, drama, drama this year. It\u2019d be nice to see couples, now we\u2019re two weeks in, get sort of closer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/entertainment\/reality-tv\/love-island-2021-contestant-liberty-poole\/&quot;\">Liberty<\/a> was one of the original Islanders last year, and walked from the show on day 54, mere days from the final.<\/p>\n<p>However, that doesn\u2019t mean she wouldn\u2019t be up for a return to the Villa. With rumours of a potential All-Star series of Love Island to follow, after the <a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/entertainment\/reality-tv\/love-island-boss-all-star-newsupdate\/&quot;\">show\u2019s producer expressed interest<\/a> in putting one together, Liberty was quick to say she\u2019d happily be one of the returning stars.<\/p>\n<p>She said: \u201cI actually would go into an All Stars to be fair. It\u2019s kind of weird watching Love Island this year because I feel quite nostalgic towards it. When you see everyone going in, it\u2019s like \u2018Oh, that was me last year\u2019.<\/p> <p>\u201cObviously, it\u2019s a new villa, so it might have been even more weird if it was the villa from last year. But yeah, I would love to go back, I wish I was back for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"&quot;editor-content\" mb-lg=\"\" hidden-print=\"\" js-piano-locked-content=\"\">\n<p><strong>New episodes of Love Island air at 9pm on ITV2 and ITV Hub every day except Saturday.\u00a0<b>Episodes are available the following morning on BritBox.\u00a0<\/b>Check out more of our\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/entertainment\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Entertainment<\/a>\u00a0coverage or visit our\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/tv-listings\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">TV Guide<\/a>\u00a0to see what\u2019s on tonight.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"&quot;editor-content\" mb-lg=\"\" hidden-print=\"\" js-piano-locked-content=\"\">\n<p><b>The latest issue of Radio Times magazine is on sale now \u2013\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/radiotimes.com\/magazine-subscription?utm_term=evergreen-article&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener noopener noreferrer\" noreferrer=\"\" data-auth=\"&quot;NotApplicable&quot;\" data-linkindex=\"&quot;0&quot;\">subscribe now<\/a>\u00a0and get the next 12 issues for only \u00a31.
