Love Island is likely the leading programme on terrestrial TV attracting the 16-34 demographic. Often though that demographic move on after a few years (Hollyoaks / X Factor). I wonder if the 16-34 demographic will always be watching or, as people in that demographic age they’ll continue watching until its majority audience is the 35-59 demographic?

    I wondered that, as the average on this forum, I think is much higher.

    I do think this forum is very much the abnormality though, hence why a lot of people have so many complaints about the show because they aren’t really the demographic for it.

    The main demographic is quite obviously <30. To answer the question I'm not sure Love Island will still be around when a lot of those people get to 35-59. TV changes quick and there's only so long a format can last.
