What happened in tonight's episode?
Following Chris and Francesca’s arrival, the rest of the Islanders wasted no time in getting to know the newcomers.
During a conversation with Jordan Hames, Chris admitted his ideal woman would be blonde with bright eyes, which worried Anton Danyluk.
Given that he’s coupled up with Belle Hassan, who matches the description, the gym owner seemed to think that Chris was describing his Island partner.
And his worst fears appeared founded as Chris then asked Belle out on a date.

Francesca received a text message, which read: “Francesca and Chris. This afternoon you will each be going on two dates, please now choose your first dates and ask them out. #decisionsdecisions #spoiltforchoice”
Francesca chose London athlete Ovie Soko while Chris went with Belle.
The professional basketball player said he was infatuated with her eyes while Francesca complimented back, saying: “You’re so chilled out. I like that. You’re so easy to be around and you’re so pretty.”
Elsewhere, Chris asked Belle if there was a chance that her head could be turned from Anton.
After their dates, Francesca and Chris had to pick another Islander to take out of the villa - choosing potential lovebirds Curtis Pritchard and Maura Higgins.
But the Irish beauty had little to no interest in getting to know Chris, having mentioned in the Beach Hut: “The poor lad [Chris] is going to be talking to me and I’m just going to be earwigging. I want to hear the way Curtis is behaving!”
During her date, Maura wanted to know why Chris chose her for a date.
“You’ve got a cracking personality. You’re the type of girl.. you’d give stick out, but I think you can take it as well,” Chris expressed to her.
When she agreed she could, Chris joked: “I’m glad you said that because when you asked me why I took you on a date, I was going to say ‘to see if it’s all talk’.”
Meanwhile, Curtis and Francesca's date went somewhat better as the pair examined all things concerning their families, and there didn't appear to be any awkwardness between the two.

Amber made it known that she still had feelings for Michael, who’s been coupled up with Joanna ever since she arrived during Casa Amor week.
When asked by Anna and Maura on what she thought about the new male Islander, Amber was quick to let it be known that he doesn’t tick all of her boxes, hinting that she wasn’t going to pursue him in the villa.
She said: “I can’t switch off my feelings. I still like Michael. Chris is lovely and he’s got tattoos and he’s tall but I just had something with Michael.”
Then things got seriously steamy as Molly-Mae Hague received a text announcing a "lapdance task".
The boys all wore heart rate monitors while each girl, in sexy costumes, performed a dance routine - the boys later reversed roles with the girls and had to put on a show of their own.

Catwoman Maura saw the opportunity to grab Curtis for a snog, and he reciporcated by flinging her around with some sexy dance moves.
Maura later said in the Beach Hut: “Curtis gets a ten out of ten from me!”
The girls won the task by increasing the fellas' heart-rates by more.
