Get ready for another summer of LOVE, as the BBC have today (June 9th) confirmed that I Kissed A Girl will return for series two, the fourth instalment to the popular I Kissed… brand.
The commission follows hot on the heels of series two of I Kissed A Boy, which is currently airing on BBC Three and BBC iPlayer and is produced by Twofour.
Returning to host, and to make sure the girls make connections and find their match is pop icon and LGBTQ+ ally Dannii Minogue.
Also back is the brilliantly witty, and hilariously funny Charley Marlowe who will narrate the “highs, the lows and all the steam in between”.
Commenting on the news of the shows recommission, Minogue said via a press release: “I Kissed A Girl was full of heart and groundbreaking for female representation on TV. The fans loved the fun, the passion and the drama. I can’t wait for the return of the girls – let’s see what the heat of the Italian sun does for kisses and connections. It is sure to get sparks flying. I am ready to be cupid once again – get ready for the Masseria Mania!”
I Kissed A Girl is the first UK dating series for queer girls with the I Kissed brand paving the way for LGBTQ+ representation on mainstream television.
Refreshingly kind, and emotionally real, the shows first series won Best Media Moment at the DIVA Awards, and was nominated for a raft of gongs including Outstanding Reality Competition Programme at the GLAAD Awards, and Best Multichannel Programme at the Broadcast Awards.
Blending bold format twists (kissing before introductions!), honest conversations, engaging dynamics, and heartfelt storytelling – all set against the backdrop of a gorgeous Italian villa – we cannot wait to see how series 2 of the show unfolds…
