Stranded On Honeymoon Island is a bold and original reality dating format that sees twelve unlucky-in-love singletons matched into couples who marry on the spot – then immediately begin their honeymoon on a remote tropical island.
Davina McCall, 57, will host the show, guiding the newlyweds as their instant marriages are put to the test in paradise.
In the new trailer, Davina is seen strolling along a picturesque beach as she announces: ‘Hey guys, I have got something so special for you,
‘BBC’s brand-new dating show, where twelve unlucky-in-love singles are stranded on honeymoon island.
‘If they can make it through this together, they can make it through anything! Will they thrive in isolation and find love – Or will they flare out?’

Speaking about the show in March, Davina told the BBC: ‘I am a serial matchmaker…. So I jumped at the chance to host the BBC’s new dating show.
‘I can’t wait to meet our couples and find out how they get on when they’re Stranded on Honeymoon Island. For some it will be challenging and others, idyllic!!! Hopefully it’s the start of some very beautiful relationships.’
Davina is one of the UK’s most beloved TV personalities, with a career spanning over three decades.
She’s known as a presenter, author, and fitness guru, and is no stranger to dating shows, having hosted StreetMate (Channel 4), Singled Out (MTV) and most recently My Mum, Your Dad (ITV).
She will meet the contestants at their first speed dating event in London before they are matched into six couples and sent to a tropical island for the experience of a lifetime.
Isolated and pitted against the forces of nature, will true love blossom – or burn out?
On these remote beaches, fledgling relationships are soon put to the test as couples live out their honeymoons together and fend for themselves with minimal resources.
With nowhere to run when the going gets tough, they must communicate and collaborate to survive.
