Love Island star Ched Uzor has called for show bosses to bring back a controversial challenge in a bid to spice up the All Stars series.
Fans of the ITV2 dating show will remember that the brutal game forces the group of sexy singletons to guess who viewers are talking about in a series of savage social media posts.
In the past it’s caused tears, fallouts and major drama between the contestants but in recent years it’s been scrapped from production.At the time, insiders said: “The Twitter challenge won’t be on this year’s series – it hasn’t been ditched for good, it’s just not happening on the winter season.”

Speaking to Daily Star on behalf of stocklytics.com, Ched said: “I feel like they need to do more challenges, maybe like the old tweet challenge sharing what people have said about other people in the villa right now.”
The challenge was last part of the Love Island schedule when Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury appeared on the show back in 2019. The tweets seemed to stir up trouble between the islanders at the time, with many fans taking to Twitter, which is now called X, to discuss how they thought they had been written by producers on a fake new account.
Personal trainer Ched, who appeared in the 2020 Winter series and made the final with Jess Gale, also went on to share which former contestants he’d like to see back in the villa as the group of familiar faces battle it out to win £50,000. He explained: “I want to see Mike [Boateng] in there from my series, he’d be good on there or maybe some of the boys from Casa Amor who didn’t get a chance and got kicked off after like three days.

“It would be good to give them a chance to try and find someone. Jack [Fowler] would be good in there too. I was asked twice but I’ve got a Mrs and I’m settled and happy. I wouldn’t have gone back in anyway.” Following reports that his ex Jess could be heading back to the villa, he said: “I haven’t seen Jess since 2020. I still see her online but I haven’t seen her in person.
“We still say happy birthday and we’re civil. If she goes back in good for her. There was nothing huge there between me and her for me to be upset if she went back into the villa.”
Love Island All Stars airs nightly on ITV2 and ITVX at 9pm
