Love Island fans insist a returning Islander 'did their research' as they expose their 'game plan'

Fans have claimed Megan has an obvious game plan
Megan was voted least favourite girl after dumping Tommy for Conor, before being axed.
But her return has seen her head straight for Conor to pick up where they left off.
However, Love Island viewers aren't convinced, with some saying that the brunette beauty has returned to the dating show with a game plan.
Taking to Reddit, one person speculated: 'Irish Megan really did her homework. Notice how when Yasmin first came in irish Megan threw the blame on her calling her 'boring and sloppy' and never held Harry or Dejon accountable.
'But now she's flipping the script, telling the girls 'Oh the boys were the problem' and 'It's not Shakira it's Harry.'
They continued: 'Since her return, Helena who's always laughing and scoffed 'I'm not threatened by Shakira.' is now crying….its no coincidence that both Helena and Megan are shifting the blame onto Harry instead of Shakira after irish meg came in because they would've jumped guns blazing on Shakira if they hadn't known what the public say about them.'
And the poster finished by saying: 'They're even openly acknowledging the 'divide' for the first time and Megan who was confidently arguing with 4+ girls during movie night is now shedding crocodile tears for people to sympathise with her…irish meg TRUST and believe that you will be on that spirit flight back to england i've had enough of them rigging this season and painting shakira and toni as the villains.'
The comment was liked by thousands of people in agreement, but not everyone agreed with the theory.
Some said it was a good thing that Megan was calling out the boys for their actions, while others fumed that the word 'game player' was being thrown about too easily.
Love Island fans praise Megan as she calls out Harry for his actions in brutal speech
On her villa return, Megan revealed the real reason she decided to come back.
She said: "I'm excited to go back in, I think I left quite abruptly and I'm going back in for some clarity.
"It was an easy decision to make.
"When you can't speak to people for a couple of weeks and have to watch them on telly every night, you want some answers."
Some Love Island fans ended up complaining to Ofcom about Megan and Blu's return to the villa.
"Producers are ****s, they bring Megan back now that Shakira + Conor are happy + now I've seen that they've put the clip of Shakira + Toni talking about meg + demon in the grafties?
"I hate them and ofcom will be hearing from me."
Someone else added: "And the voting was rigged - I'm complaining to ofcom too, sick of the lies."
A third penned: "@itv bringing back meg over alima is disgraceful. And I will be complaining to ofcom.
"Megan recieved the lowest amount of votes. Alimas was never voted out by the public but by somone stealing her man.
"S10 molly was kicked out the same way and eventually brought back."
A fourth then said: "Everyone needs to complain to ofcom after that episode!!!!!!!"
While a fifth added: "I'm actually gonna file an ofcom complaint cause how can they disregard our votes like that?
"Megan literally had the lowest votes for favourite girl FOR A REASON."

Review: The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes in Chester
With another well-supported crowd, the Grosvenor Park theatre is a fantastic place to enjoy a night of theatre and The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes is the latest to enjoy. Using Storyhouse's in-house team of actors and beyond, the show is a new telling of the famous Arthur Conan Doyle character with Holmes's co-solver of cases now Joanne Watson, know as Jo, who comes from Chester. Jo – played by Alyce Liburd – comes home from that there London after an invite to CrimeCon by a former school friend to talk about the subject of her many books, Holmes (Ethan Reid). Alyce Liburd as Jo Watson in The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes in Chester. (Image: Mark McNulty.) The whole story is a flashback as Jo is first brought to our attention in the form of a true crime podcast, tapping into the cultural zeitgeist with a touch of Only Murders in the Building thrown in too. While the main man is surprisingly absent, he is soon thrown into the fray by a burglary which leads to a murder and the Duke and Duchess of Westminster. With trips to Liverpool and London covered, and a good ol' punch up in an Irish bar, plus a masked ball and much more, the race is on to unmask who is really pulling the strings. Reid excels as the titular detective, though he forgoes any previous incumbents of the role as his influence, dressing like a 10th doctor David Tennant and solves crimes like Kris Marshall's Humphrey Goodman. Howard Chadwick and Morgan Reid in The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes in Chester. (Image: Newsquest.) Liburd is less narrator as previous Watsons, more willing participant and she brings that pluckiness and willingness for a fight to the fore, plus a pain alluded to off stage. Reid and Liburd do, however, generate chemistry and a belief that they have been solving crimes for some time, shown mostly through the running Deerstalker hat joke. The play does suffer from a slow start as multiple characters are introduced and my one main criticism is that some of the introductions could be dialled down – they border on stereotypes and I feared for the standard. However, those fears soon faded as the ensemble found its feet thanks to the dynamic of two characters – Holmes and DCI Ray (Howard Chadwick) with the former showing the perfect of level of disdain the Great Detective has for ordinary coppers. The latter steals the show however with his perfect level of 'what is he on about' needed from the boys in blue. Chadwick provides all of the comic relief and doesn't dip once in his task – a fine showing. The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes in Chester. (Image: Newsquest.) The supporting cast, including Victoria Brazier as a reimagined Mrs Hudson, all work hard to support the central trio. Hannah Baker plays 'hoity toity' very well as the Duchess of Westminster while Morgan Lewis, making his professional debut, also shines. As with 2024's Gangs of New York and The Importance of Being Earnest, the cast are all outstanding musicians with Baker's piano skills the stand-out showing. The second half steps up the peril and the plot to a hugely-satisfactory ending. Would I recommend this show to everyone? Elementary, dear readers. The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes runs until August 31 – for more, had to
