Lesbian couple join cast of BBC reality series Stranded On Honeymoon Island
Briefly

Stranded on Honeymoon Island is a BBC dating reality series that pairs 12 singles into six newly formed couples after brief speed-dating encounters. Couples are ceremonially matched and "married" before being stranded on six remote Philippine beaches for three weeks with no extra clothes, limited communication with family and no luxuries, and a distress flare available if a match fails. Davina McCall hosts and frames the experiment as revealing deep personal learning and priorities. The cast includes a lesbian couple, Abby and Helen. Abby, 32 from Berkshire, is an avid fitness enthusiast, former footballer and wants to settle and start a family.
The point of the series, hosted by Davina McCall, is to see whether love can thrive when free of distractions. The couples will meet in a speed-dating scenario before being matched up and "married". They will then be stranded on the island in the Philippines for three weeks without any additional clothes, communication with family and friends or luxuries. If things don't work out, then can light a distress flare.
"Stranded on six remote, tropical beaches, these six newly formed couples must communicate and collaborate to get by, with nowhere to run when the going gets tough," a synopsis of the show promised. "It's the deep learning that people do about themselves, about other people and what they want," McCall has said about how the new series differed from other dating shows. "I think it really cements what they want and what's important in life."
