Due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, we've been devoid of a dating show - and in desperate need for a new reality TV fix.
But fear not, the Love Island-shaped hole in our lives has been filled with ITV2's brand new series The Cabins - and it looks amazing.
The new series sees singletons ditch the apps and throw out the rulebook as they go to extreme measures to try and find true love.

From the moment they meet, the couples immediately move in together. Their date begins in their very own exclusive log cabins, complete with simmering hot tubs and set in beautiful surroundings within the UK.
Nestled together in their intimate cabins, the singletons will have quality time to really get to know their date. From heartfelt moments or declarations of love, to awkward silences and difficult dating conversations, viewers will be able to follow all the antics and find out if the sparks fly or quickly fizzle out.
Having made it through the first 24 hours they then have to decide if they would like to spend more time together - or call it a day and walk away.

"My friends and family would say it's because I'm quite a big personality," she said. "I'm timid at first, but when you've met me, I do come out of my shell a lot. People don't expect that. People do get very intimidated by me."
3. Mamudo, 23, Liverpool
The footballer and coach, who admits to having been catfished on a previous date, is looking for a more natural way to build a relationship rather than app dating. And he already has his ideal woman in mind.

5. Jess, 24, South Wales

"I've also had seven names covered up on my arse," she says. "I was only like 18...again I did that as a bet. I've had that covered now. And I have 'me' tattooed on my wedding ring finger, as I believe you should love yourself first."
7. Tom, 26, Leeds

9. Will, 28, London
