Yes, I love it! Flame away.....

I think most of the appeal comes from the fact that most of it is filmed 5-10 minutes from my front door and there's always the chance of recognising someone!

Do you walk up and down Queens road hoping to "bump" in to certain people?

i can't stand it tbh, perhaps too close to home as i live round the corner to queens road.....i used to like sitting inthe cafe with the fab home made cakes. was next to a self tanning place, couldn't believe some of the women tottering about you'd see stepping out of their 4x4, not my scene at all but curious to observe. love living in essex mind, bloody love it Smile

It is jaw-dropping (in a rather wonderful way). What have those women done to their faces? Loved Mark's look of utter incomprehension when his nan was telling him about her wedding. Grin

Joey Essex can't be that stupid surely?! My fave is Arg, Lydia's mam is so horrible to him.

DesperateHousewife20 · 04/04/2011 20:09

What the hell are marbs?!

I love this show, so funny and always amazes me how much make up they wear!

KenDoddsDadsDog · 04/04/2011 20:15

Marbs = Marbella!

DesperateHousewife20 · 04/04/2011 20:17

thesnowmanleft · 04/04/2011 20:44

I can never get over how sexist all the boys are!!!! talk about double standards! And what was with Lauren giving lucy such a hard time for going on a date with the worst communicator on the planet kirk?

roundtable · 04/04/2011 20:45

Apparently Amy and Sam are private school educated including Secondary school. Not that I watch it or anything Blush

thesnowmanleft · 04/04/2011 20:47

You can tell sam is P.Ed.

KenDoddsDadsDog · 04/04/2011 20:51

A vajazzle is getting diamanté / crystals glued onto your fanjo!

DaydreamDollyisshrinking · 04/04/2011 20:58

I blardy love it!! Am looking forward to 'Chelsea girls' apparently coming soon....

whitegold · 06/04/2011 13:39

Oh god I watch this and I love it, its hilarious Grin

I used to like Lucy but she is turning into the village bike a bit isn't she?

I love Amy and her little giggle, she's always so happy and positive about everything!

Did you see Chloe talking about how she used to be blonde, fat and flat chested, but now she has blossomed? Her old look was probably better imo Grin

Blondeshavemorefun · 06/04/2011 13:55

pmsl whitegold - would love to see an old chloe

whitegold · 06/04/2011 13:59

Me too - I bet old snaps of her will appear in heat magazine or similar soon Grin

Blondeshavemorefun · 06/04/2011 14:04

prob, there are 100's about her on google about shagging simon from blue

Shaxx · 06/04/2011 15:55

My work colleague grew up with most of the cast (he's just as tanned and gorgeous) and says that everyone is real and all the siblings, mums, houses etc are all real but all the scenarios and who they're all going out with is made up.

I don't know what I think of it. Its utter crap but I can't stop watching it!
I live not too far from, dare I say it, Faces and Woodford/Woodford Green which they keep mentioning. Maybe thats why I like wtching it...Hmm
