Hot Mess Summer: how it works and all about Rylan's new reality series in Zante

Hot Mess Summer challenges eight boozy Brits to mend their ways and run one of Zante’s busiest party spots. Presented by Rylan Clark, the Prime Video series is taking a group of people who are a ‘liability on a night out’ to the Greek island in the height of summer, where they must reform their ways and run a bar to win a prize. There they will do everything from cleaning toilets to mixing cocktails, but it remains to be seen if they can work together and resist temptation in order to share a cash prize.

“Hot Mess Summer is going to be funny, entertaining, chaotic and everything you’d expect from a Zante bar,” says Rylan. “But our eight party lovers are hopefully going to take away real life lessons as they go from being the party animal to having instrumental roles in running a successful bar. All I’ll say is that it’s not as easy as it sounds.”
