Meanwhile, contestants from the first season have been settling into their new-found relationships after the show ended. One such couple is Janey Smith and Roger Hawes, who remain besotted with each other.
The pair confirmed they were still together when the final episode aired at the end of September. They have both since posted loved-up images across their social media.

Talking to OK! Janey said: “It’s going so well – he’s so easy going and we just laugh all the time, I think I might wake up and it’s all a dream. It’s the easiest thing being Roger’s girlfriend, it’s just lovely and we can’t stop laughing it’s ridiculous, we’re so ridiculous.
“We’re just doing more, and without sounding too corny, we just want to be together, so that’s how we’re going to roll with it for now.”
