Yahoo News You vs. Chris & Kem is the show we never knew we needed
It's fair to say that the true winners of last year's Love Island were Chris Hughes and Kem Cetinay – while girls came and went, their bromance stood the test of time.
And their popularity hasn't shown any signs of fading, as their very own show You vs. Chris and Kem hit our screens tonight (July 16).
Heading out on the road together, they were handed a host of tasks by members of the public, with typically weird consequences.
This episode saw them being challenged to a wrestling match at a farm by wrestler Joel, who took down each boy pretty easily – but when the lads teamed up against Joel, they actually managed to bring him down.
After a quick chat about marriage and kids – during which the boys agreed to name their children after each other – they were straight off to their next appointment.
They were pretty certain that they could easily defeat Leah at the eating task she set them, which involved them eating six doughnuts each against her eating 12.
While it took the lads seven minutes to eat their doughnuts between them, champion Leah wolfed down 12 in just one minute and 48 seconds.
It was then onto camel riding – and surprisingly, they managed to beat their much-more-experienced competitor – before they had to take on a rugby challenge which turned out to be waxing some actual rugby players.
The Chris and Kem fans were out in force, praising the lads for their entertainment value:

Speaking about their new show, Kem recently told Digital Spy: "People say your sell-by date is a year. [We're very lucky] that we've been offered another TV show."
"Everyone knows [we] are quite competitive," he added. "Day to day, everything we do is a challenge between us. We're kind of like big kids."
