Beeb announce today there will be a second series of I Kissed a Girl…

I Kissed A Girl will return for a second run of episodes, the fourth instalment to the popular I Kissed… brand. The commission follows series two of I Kissed A Boy, which is currently airing on BBC Three.

Returning to host, and to make sure the girls make connections and find their match is pop icon Dannii Minogue.

“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!” – Dannii Minogue

I Kissed A Girl / BBC / Two Four Broadcast Limited – The series will return for 10 new episodes

The Beeb programme is the first UK dating series for lesbians with the I Kissed brand paving the way for gay representation on mainstream television. I Kissed A Girl 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.

10 single girls are matched up, and meet for the first time… with a kiss. No chat. No messages. Just one kiss to test their chemistry straight away. Will their kiss be sweet and pure? Passionate and wild? And ultimately, will that first kiss lead to love? Dannii Minogue will throw open the doors to a beautiful location perfect for the ultimate summer of love.

Before they arrive, the girls are matched up based on what they’re looking for in a partner. After meeting their match for the first time with a kiss, they’re encouraged to give their new relationship a good shot. However, the girls must ultimately do what’s right for them, because everyone is a possibility in this love game.

Also back for the ten episodes is Charley Marlowe who will narrate the highs, the lows and all the steam in between.

Fiona Campbell, Controller for Youth Audiences, BBC Three and BBC iPlayer:

“I Kissed A Girl will follow our brilliant second series of I Kissed A Boy, which has shone a light on what it’s really like on the LGBTQ+ dating scene across the UK. The boys opened up and let the audiences in to some really vulnerable parts of themselves which made audiences fall in love with them. The girls brought their A game for the first series of I Kissed A Girl, creating a social buzz and stand out moments so to bring it back for another series means audiences can expect even more iconic, memorable moments and one hot Summer!”
