Real talk: this year's series of Love Island is turning out to be a classic(two words: Mimii Ngulube) but we will never forget where it all began. Other than the celeb version (just called Love Island back in those days) from 2004.

We mean series one of the reboot; the season that made icons out of Hannah Elizabeth and Jon Clark. Back when smoking in the garden, marriage proposals and shopping trips outside the villa were the norm, and Max Morley and Jess Hayes were crowned winners of the dating show.
