8 Reasons The Voiceover Guy On Love Island Is The True Winner Of The Show
'After tonight's football performance it's nice to see someone from England scoring...'
If, like us, you’ve been glued to Love Island for the last five weeks, you’ll be well familiar with Iain Stirling.
Okay, you might not know his face – though he has co-presented the odd episode with Caroline Flack in the past – but you will most definitely know his voice, as he’s been the voiceover artist on every episode over the last two series.
In a nutshell? He’s the Come Dine With Me presenter, but with a hape more innuendo and a ridey Scottish accent. Basically, he’s the best thing about the show and we refuse to hear you say otherwise.
Here are just eight of the reasons Iain will always be a Love Island winner in our hearts…
1. Everyone loves him
This voiceover has got one-liners and banter for days ??? #LoveIsland

4. He takes the p*ss out of every contestant. Which is obviously the best thing about him.

5. He’s a total dark horse
Prior to starting on Love Island, Iain had three – yes, THREE – BAFTA nominations for his presenter work on CBBC’s The Dog Ate My Homework.
6. He keeps getting mistaken for David Tennant, so God knows he needs someone to cut him a break
My sister thought the voiceover on Love Island was David Tennant

Why does it sound like David Tennant does the voiceover for #LoveIsland? I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t take that job…

7. Er, he has impeccable taste in drinks:
8. And knows how to deal with all those morning-after hangovers:
9. Last but not least, he’s kind of a hottie.
Case closed.
