Olivia Attwood’s Bad Boyfriends (w/t) to launch on ITV2 & ITVX this autumn

Badly behaved boyfriends, cheaters and DM-sliders beware! Presenter and podcaster Olivia Attwood is coming for you in a brand new explosive reality format on ITV, this autumn.

Eight unsuspecting bad boyfriends will be flown to a Greek island under the premise of filming a series about manhood and bromance in a hedonistic holiday mecca, before getting the shock of their lives when Olivia appears to announce their wild partying days are on hold and to reveal the true purpose of the show – to whip them into better boyfriend shape. All at the behest of their long-suffering girlfriends, whose surprise, dramatic arrivals cause mayhem.

But Olivia has her work cut out attempting to reform this wayward bunch of boys from serial cheaters and lazy lovers, to commitment-phobes and man-children, it’s time to shape up or ship out. Across 11 episodes, the boys will compete in a series of challenges, designed to rectify their ways and battle it out to become the most improved boyfriend.

In the social media age, maintaining a relationship can be tough with temptation around every corner, every search and every swipe. Full of big heart and purpose, this new format sees the couples going back to basics and rediscovering why they fell in love with each other in the first place.

Expect tough love, lots of humour and plenty of mischief, alongside unexpected revelations and explosive scenes along the way. Can the couples get back on track with Olivia’s help? And how will the girlfriends react when the spotlight is turned on them?

There will be eliminations across the series as the least improved boyfriends deemed incapable of improving are voted out, resulting in one boy being crowned the most improved boyfriend but left facing a huge dilemma…
