Love Island viewers were doubly furious this weekend as the show gets nearer to the big finale on Monday night.
Friday night's episode saw the islanders vote for the couple they wanted to leave, with Alex and Alexandra receiving three votes, with Laura and Paul and Josh and Kaz getting one each.
While viewers were under the impression that the couple who got the most votes would be leaving the island, the decision was actually handed over to a public vote.
Viewers took to Twitter to vent their fury over what appeared to be tactics to save Alex and Alexandra from elimination.
I’m actually annoyed. Alex got the most votes but now it’s a public vote???? The producers really want him to stay so badly #loveisland

That was pointless wasn’t it!

Alex and Alex clearly should leave. They got 3 votes, no one will save them so why can’t they just be dumped????? I feel for #Alexandra but I’ve had enough of #Alex the chameleon
Alex x Alex got 3 votes, josh and kaz and Laura and Paul got 1 vote each but they are ALL vulnerable. Na man #loveisland is rigged af - bet harry styles’ 3rd nipple alex the lobster is staying in. Get the fuck out you used period pad

Why are the public getting involved, just extra. Alex squared are not in a relationship and got the most votes, stop taking the piss and send them home. #loveisland

Nah nah. It’s not even like there was a tie between two couples or something that the public should now vote. ALEX AND ALEXANDRA GOT THREE VOTES FAM. SEND THEM HOME. #LoveIsland

But it wasn't just the dodgy elimination rubbing audiences the wrong way.
A preview to tonight's episode shows Dani Dyer's dad Danny Dyer appearing via a Skype call - after fans had expected him to enter the house in the Meet the Parents special.
Nearly 8 weeks we’ve waited for Danny Dyer to enter the villa & all we’re getting is bloody Skype #massiveletdown #loveisland

Was literally on the edge of my seat waiting for Danny Dyer to walk into the villa, the opportunity everyone’s been waiting for to spice things up has been wasted ???? #loveisland
