Dannii Minogue greets ten strangers in a sun-bleached Masseria and sends them straight into a silent kiss with the stranger the producers have already chosen for them. From that moment the villa operates like any other dating reality machine: cheap wine, terrace snogs and a soundtrack of Dua Lipa, except every coupling is male and the chat is endearingly blunt. Over eight episodes the couples swap, re-couple or get eliminated in a “Kiss Off” until four pairs commit to going home together; Ollie and Dan, Subomi and Gareth, Jake and Kailum, Ross and Ceejay walk out hand-in-hand while Ben and Matty are dumped at the final hurdle.
A second run in 2025 kept the same format but added Aron and Jas as the series’ first committed couple, while trans man Lars Fellows’ inclusion drew predictable noise from the LGB Alliance yet changed nothing inside the house where the men simply cracked on. The show streams on BBC Three and iPlayer, travels to TVNZ+, 10 Play, Videoland and Globoplay, and has already birthed lesbian twin I Kissed a Girl.
