And insiders say the saucy scenes will rival hit series Towie and Love Island.

A source said: “Trips abroad always result in the best storylines as the sun and sex are the perfect backdrop for explosive drama and new romances.

“They want more from the show – and bringing back Hollyoaks to Ibiza seems like the perfect fit."

There's a chance the Hollyoaks cast might even bump into reality stars from Made In Chelsea while on the island - after Bizarre revealed they would be jetting off to the party island for filming too.

A source said: “Made In Chelsea is going to get rough and ready this summer.

“Expect lots of drunk reality stars and big nights out."

Cast members including Jamie Laing and Louise Thompson are expected to attend.

“Producers have decided to take things down and notch and let the cast properly enjoy themselves.

“Expect the usual drama from the cast who can’t wait to explore the white isle in Chelsea style.”
