LOVE Island viewers were left fuming last night when narrator Iain Stirling made another joke about contestant Blu Chegini's mum and her sex shop.

The comment came after the group were told they would be taking part in the iconic 'baby challenge'.

Designed to make or break a pairing, each couple is given a doll that they must keep clean, feed and entertain. At the end of the trial, the team who have the best score wins.

During the episode as the couples reacted to the news they were now parents, Iain cheekily quipped: "Blu's mum sex shop actually sells adult life-like dolls but you are practising a whole different skillset."

People watching at home couldn't help but grumble at the joke with many pointing out it was a reoccurring theme for the comedian and that Blu had left the Island on day four of the show.

On person wrote on social media: "Iain needs to give the blu’s mums sex shop jokes a rest, we’ve actually heard it every episode at this point."

Another user questioned: "Why is Ian still making sex shop jokes? Blu has left omg." "Omg can Iain Stirling actually stop with the sex shop jokes now," wrote a third person.

 

Calling out the show, a fuming viewer penned: "@LoveIsland
yet again @IainDoesJokes is making inappropriate sexual remarks about blus mom who owns a sex shop why are @ITV
allowing these vile words to be aired there are kids watching?"

And one angry watcher wrote: "@IainDoesJokes you won’t be laughing for long mate I’ve just reported you to Ofcom your inappropriate comments about blu and his mother are vile . you are obsessed with him and his mother because she owns a sex shop…"

Fans of the show were left far from happy to hear the news the baby challenge was back, with many taking to social media to express their disappointment in seeing it return.

“We wanted the tweet challenge back!! No one cares about some f*** ass baby dolls,” said one user.

A third agrees: “There is nothing I hate more than the baby challenge, actively skip it everytime.”

The ITV2 show made the decision to axe the baby challenge after nine seasons back in 2023 to allow space to welcome new tasks and challenges to the show.

A sports day event was instead switched in place that year, and saw the Islanders competed in various athletic and silly games.

A second shared: “I actually hate the baby doll challenge. Lol this is when I stop watching”.
