Celebrity Coach Trip stars Paige Turley and Finn Tapp have revealed how they worked out who they’d be sharing their time with on the famous vehicle before joining the cast.
The Love Island winners joined the E4 reality show as late arrivals during the second week of the competition.
However, the inquisitive pair have revealed they worked out some of the identities of the famous travellers before they arrived in Portugal.
Speaking to Daily Star, Scottish beauty Paige, 24, said: “We did a bit of detective work beforehand… when I say we I mean me.
“I was snooping at everyone’s Instagrams and I was like ‘Ooh Sophie [Kasei] and James [Tindale] are abroad and are filming’ so we had had a little inkling that they’d be there.
“Sophie then put a [Instagram] story up with Lateshya [Grace] so we knew Teshya was going to be there so we were kind of filling in the blanks.”
Finn, 22, added: “The rest of them were big surprises.
“It was a lovely bunch of people that we made really good bonds with. Everyone had their unique stories.”
The pair were correct with their guesses and the likes of Linda Robson, Honey G, Ginny Lemon, Paul Danan and Tom Malone Jr were also fellow passengers on the coach.

While on the road, the famous faces got to know each other and indulged in conversations about their backgrounds.
“We always used to play card games on the coach and then off the coach and when we were finished with the challenges, because the weather was so good, it was nice to bathe in the sun,” Finn said.
“We’ve done a lot of things that we wouldn’t necessarily have done if it wasn’t for the show, it was a proper laugh.

“We got on with everyone, everyone was lovely on there, it was a really good experience.”
Finn and Paige went on to gush over international tour guide Brendan Sheeirin, who has appeared on the Channel 4 show since it started in 2005.
“I think the biggest shock for me was how much Brendan actually knows.
Paige added: “He’s a real tour guide.”
