Is any of this news to you?

With the next series of Love Island coming out tomorrow (Monday) we thought we'd round up some bits of info.

You may think you know everything but maybe some of these facts will surprise you!

Starting with food...

The islanders make their own breakfast, but their lunch and dinner are provided for them.

Chloe Crowhurst from season 3 confirmed saying "It'd be chaos otherwise!"

What about alcohol and smoking?

Well this is perhaps more well-known, but smoking is only allowed in certain areas around the villa.

Islanders have a designated smoking area, and they can't smoke in the villa itself or the garden.

There's also an alcohol limit.

Islanders are limited to two glasses a night, and two bottles of Prosecco between the group at a party.

And they're monitored to make sure no one's drinking other people's drinks!

Time and news is non-existent..

So, we know that the islanders aren't allowed contact with the outside world.

But did you also know that they have no way of checking the time?

Chris Williamson, who appeared on the show in 2015, previously said that if you were being driven anywhere  "the driver of the car would have his watch on a different time and the clock in the car would be a different time to that.”

Ah, but what about those phones of theirs, you say?

Well, they're only allowed use them for photos and sending texts to each other.

And even those texts go through the producers!

Speaking of the producers...

The islanders often have secret, off-camera chats with the producers in an area called the “two-way larder”.

Sometimes the producers will get guidance if something big is going on such as a vote-off.

They get one day off filming a week

It's a lot to be filmed around the clock, so the islanders actually get one day without cameras a week.

The islanders can head to the beach and take off their mics while the villa gets cleaned.

There's no branding allowed

Islanders are not allowed to wear anything with a brand name or logo visible.

We'd imagine this adds another challenge to packing for islanders!

That's all we got for now, do you know any other random facts?

The next series airs on Monday night at 9pm on Virgin Media One.
