New bombshell Angel enters the villa
As the ranking challenge comes to an end, a twist text tells the Love Island stars to guess which three boys new bombshell Angel is interested in getting to know.
The group chose Ty, Cach and Boris before Angel enters the villa and reveals if they got it right - and her answer is set to send shock waves around the villa.
The ITV first look teases that the "savage" dumping we've previously reported on could come tonight, as they write: "But big decisions come with big consequences, and Angel’s choice has huge repercussions for the Villa."
Shakira and Conor's argument ends in tears
Shakira and Conor head to the den to catch-up following the game, and he's not happy about some new information that came out during the tense rankings.
After finding out that Shakira had said she didn't like Conor as much as she had liked Harry, he's looking for some answers.
Shakira, having previously explained that her comment was a reflection on how long she was coupled up with Harry, she tells Conor: “It’s been twisted and you’ve wanted to believe the boys straight away. It’s ego and pride. Wake up Conor. They’re literally the biggest game players here. When have I ever lied to you?”

Following the conversation, Shakira retreats to the dressing room where she begins to cry. Toni and Yas comfort her as she tells them: “I don’t want to be surrounded by them all the time. For Conor to straight off the cuff believe them… We’ve been friends for weeks.”
Angel and Harry grow close
During her first proper day in the villa, Angel chats to Harry, and things quickly get flirty between the pair.
Harry says to Angel: “You like the mornings do you? What about…” while making cheeky eye contact with her: “Cause I’m into that. Ends up with a little spooning.”
Angel replies: “I like being a little spoon.”
Harry asks Angel how she typically meets romantic connections and Angel shares how she gets attached easily.
Angel tells Harry: “When I sleep with someone, I get feelings. So I can’t sleep with them because I’m just like ‘ah I’m in love.’”
Harry, again flirtatiously, responds with: “We might have to hold off on that spoon in the morning then.”
As the conversation comes to a close, Angel asks if Harry wants to go and join the others. He says: “No, I want to stay here with you.”

Yas has a plan to get Toni and Cach back together
Following a dramatic few days in the Harrison and Lauren love triangle, Toni is starting to realise she made a mistake dropping Cach.
Yasmin and Jamie hatch a plan to reunite Toni and Cach, pulling her to the firepit for an intervention. She tells Toni: “You’ve had a pickle… It’s been an emotional rollercoaster. I know when you were getting to know Cach, you weren't doing that to spite Harrison, you did it because you genuinely felt that spark with him.”
She floats the idea: “I can take you to the Terrace then we can bring him up.”
Toni agrees to Yasmin’s proposition and positions herself on the Terrace while Yasmin brings Cach up suspiciously.
During the conversation, Cach realises Toni is upset and embraces her before saying: “You know the last thing I want to see is you upset.”
She tells him: “I hate that I hurt you, it was horrible what I did. I know it was wrong and I’m sorry.” Cach responds: “I know. I accept your apology, I hated being perceived as vulnerable.”
