The villa is set to be rocked as a savage, fan favourite challenge returns to Love Island in Sunday night's episode.

The Love Island Grafties are back and ready to cause a stir amongst the boys and girls as they find out what the public really think of them.

The Movie Night spin-off challenge will see Islanders pick up their winning awards and make an acceptance speech.

While it all seems plain sailing in the villa currently, a surprise text will shake things up as they prepare to watch some tapes back.

The text reads: 'Islanders, it's awards season and tonight you are invited to a ceremony all about you. The winner of each category has been chosen by the public.

Prepare your acceptance speeches and glam up, it's time for The Grafties! #AndTheWinnerIs #RollTheTapes'

As all couple take their seat in their glamorous dulled up outfits, the nominees for the first award pops up on screen.

The Islanders soon learn the public's three least favourite couples, but who will take to the podium to accept their award?

With shocked reactions from the Islanders, Jessy Potts says: 'Savage!'

As always within a challenge, it's not long before tension begins to build as the Islanders find out who bags the prestigious award.

Joey Essex, who is nominated for the flirtiest performance award, gets caught out as his conversations with Lola Deluca are aired on the big screen for all to see.

After watching his actions on screen, Jessy says: 'Well you used the trouble maker line on me first... if she put in more of a graft would you have failed the test?'

Up next, as Josh Sunday Oyinsan is picked for the It's Giving One Sided category, Sean says: 'You've made Mimii exclusive, quite quick as well so I feel like it's some one sided game to be fair.'

Josh bites back: 'I just didn't need to go through three people to know who I want.'

Sean adds: 'You've come in, stuck with Mimii, contemplated it with Grace but you didn't have the bottle to go through with it...You've made some mad moves and played it quite safe.'

Backing Sean, Joey says: 'I feel like what he's trying to say is that you've gone exclusive under pressure quite quickly.'

Josh replies: 'What you're saying doesn't even make sense Joey bro.'

Defending Joey, Jessy tells Josh: 'You're not listening, this is your problem!'

Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.

LOVE ISLAND 2024: MEET THE CONTESTANTS[2]

NAME: Mimii Ngulube

AGE: 24

FROM: Portsmouth

OCCUPATION: Mental Health Nurse

WHY LOVE ISLAND? The pool in Portsmouth is not giving. I've tried dating and speaking to people on social media and it just hasn't been successful. Applying was a spontaneous thing, I didn't expect to get here!

WHAT WILL YOU BRING TO THE VILLA? My girls are my rocks and I'm theirs, so I'll be a good friend as well as going in there to find a man.

I like dressing up, so I'll bring style, and I'd like to think I'm quite funny so I'll make people laugh. Bringing honesty as well - I'm good at picking up on people's personality traits and side-eyeing those who might be liars.

NAME: Sean Stone

AGE: 24

FROM: Hertford

OCCUPATION: Sweets Salesman

WHY LOVE ISLAND? I've always been one for relationships, and when you have found someone you want to be with it's the best feeling. Now is the perfect time, the one thing that is missing is my soulmate.

HOW WOULD FRIENDS/FAMILY DESCRIBE YOU? Very loving, caring and thoughtful.

I'm the kind of guy that, if you broke down on the motorway and needed your tyre changed, I'd be there at any time of night.

NAME: Ayo Odukoya

AGE: 25

FROM: Canning Town

OCCUPATION: Model

WHAT WILL YOU BRING TO THE VILLA? I think I'd bring excitement and joy. I think people would have someone to come to and talk to and feel comfortable being around or to have a laugh with. I think I'm somebody everyone would take to.

WHY SHOULD SOMEBODY DATE YOU? I feel like the way I carry myself is very respectful and I think people take to that and once you show who you are to somebody you get it back tenfold.

The way I am gives off a good enough energy for people to feel comfortable around me.

NAME: Nicole Samuel

AGE: 24

FROM: Aberdare, Wales

OCCUPATION: Accounts Manager

WHY ARE YOU SINGLE? I've been enjoying single life and the attention of different boys, it's fun. I've enjoyed being able to go on holiday with the girls and not having to worry about someone back home. All the girls are there texting in their room and I'm out till 4 in the morning living my best life.

WHAT IS SOMETHING NOT MANY PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT YOU? I became a world champion dancer in 2011, not many people know that.

I was a professional street dancer.

NAME: Ciaran Davies

AGE: 21

FROM: Pencoed, South Wales

OCCUPATION: Surveyor

WHAT'S YOUR TYPE ON PAPER? Obviously looks but humour is a big thing for me, I'm a bit of a wind up so I want a girl who can give it back. Loyalty is another one for me: I think that's the most important thing to look for in a relationship.

WHAT IS SOMETHING NOT MANY PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT YOU? When I was in Malia on a boys holiday I pretended to be Liam Reardon from series 7 to get into a club because they wouldn't let us in. It worked and we ended up getting a private booth and free drinks all night.

NAME: Joey Essex

AGE: 33

FROM: Chigwell, Essex

OCCUPATION: Reality star

CLAIM TO FAME? The Only Way Is Essex

FAMOUS EXES: Joey was in a relationship with fellow TOWIE star Sam Faiers from 2011 to 2014 with the pair getting engaged before they split.

He has also been spotted locking lips with former Love Island stars Ellie Brown and Maura Higgins. He also dated his Dancing On Ice pro partner Vanessa Bauer.

NAME: Grace Jackson

AGE: 25

FROM: Manchester

OCCUPATION: Model and social media marketing coordinator

WHY ARE YOU SINGLE? No guys have good communication and it's painful. I like someone who doesn't take themselves and life too seriously.

My lifestyle can put guys off a little bit, I like to go out and go abroad a lot. They can't keep up with my lifestyle. It's the life that I want, and it helps with my business.

NAME: Matilda Draper

AGE: 24

FROM: Beckenham

OCCUPATION: Recruitmant Consultant

WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'LL BRING? I want to bring sunshine to the Villa.

I'm lighthearted and don't take myself too seriously. If things get too serious in the Villa I'm going to throw in a little joke or a 'would you rather'.

NAME: Jessy Potts

AGE: 25

FROM: Leicester

OCCUPATION: Brand Partnerships Associate

WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU WILL BRING TO THE VILLA? I'm fun, I like to get involved, so I'd like to think I will get stuck in as soon as I arrive. I also have a very sarcastic sense of humour, so I'll make everyone laugh, but I'm a Sagittarius, so I also have a fiery side and I'm not afraid to say what I think or stand my ground.

I'm not very good at taking 'no' for an answer.

Jessica Spencer

NAME: Jessica Spencer

AGE: 25

FROM: London

OCCUPATION: Fashion Stylist

WHO DO YOU HAVE YOUR EYE ON IN THE VILLA? I have my eyes on Ayo, despite his connection with Mimii. I fancy Ayo so much. Wil also seems like a catch and someone I want to explore a connection with.

WHAT KIND OF ISLANDER ARE YOU GOING TO BE? I'm funny, flirty, sassy and ready to find love

Reuben Collins

NAME: Reuben Collins

AGE: 23

FROM: Surrey

OCCUPATION: Account Assistant

WHO DO YOU HAVE YOUR EYE ON IN THE VILLA? Mimii, Uma and Grace.

Obviously they're all stunning but it's mainly how they hold themselves and how they are as people.

WHAT KIND OF ISLANDER ARE YOU GOING TO BE? Sometimes I can be a bit too honest. At the end of the day I'll go for who I want and if I have to step on toes I will. I don't mind making a bit of a fool of myself.

Josh Sunday Oyinsan

NAME: Josh Sunday Oyinsan

AGE: 29

FROM: London

OCCUPATION: Semi-pro footballer

WHO DO YOU HAVE YOUR EYE ON IN THE VILLA? All of them!!

Mimii, Uma, Grace and Jess S.

All of the girls there are beautiful.

WHAT KIND OF ISLANDER ARE YOU GOING TO BE? I am not afraid to speak my mind!

I'm not afraid of treading on any toes...
