Only Way is Essex.....

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!

I never watched this last year, am addicted to it now.

My aunty lives in Chigwell, she says she goes into the King William pub (or whatever it's called) sometimes just to eavesdrop on the conversations.

I think it is really funny and mad in equal measure. Mark is a tit isn't he?

I like Amy, she actually seems a very sweet young girl, bless her.

Sam Faiers' face is a demonstration on NOT having botox and fillers at such a young age - she looks like the Bride of Wildenstein.

I did say this on the other thread, but it seems no one took me up on the offer: go to YouTube and type in "The real The Only Way is Essex" by 1278tonto

Do see if you spot any familiar Faces Wink

NettoSuperstar · 06/04/2011 17:45

It's my favourite show.
I really want a vajazzle.

cybbo · 06/04/2011 17:48

I think Chloe's look is hilarious

Shes missing about 4 teeth for starters, how is that attrative?

Amazing how a GG boob job will get you screen time

Blondeshavemorefun · 06/04/2011 17:54

It's scripted, isn't it?

Blondeshavemorefun · 06/04/2011 18:05

they are given topics to talk about - so a bit like that ad lib programme on bbc1 with 3 kids and parents

caramelwaffle · 06/04/2011 18:06

Is Arg the new Mark? Also Joey Essex can't be a real person can he!
I always thought Kirk was harmless (but do agree about wierd baby face) but he showed a really nasty side last night when he had a go at Maria.

Blondeshavemorefun · 07/04/2011 18:05

kirk def doesnt like maria and telling her to fuck off doesnt indear him to me

lucky joey snogging sam - wonder if he got more ......

Booandpops · 07/04/2011 23:06

KenDoddsDadsDog · 08/04/2011 06:35

caramelwaffle was the another programme made a few years back ?
I want to watch more!

caramelwaffle · 08/04/2011 18:00

It was the pilot for "Totally Essex". It was used to hawk around Production Companies. The original idea for the "Only Way is Essex" show came from Brian "Big Brother, blue contacts" Belo (the black guy in the vid)
The producers went ahead with the show, independently, taking along Amy, Mark, Sam and Kirk for ride (as you can see)

P.s. Doesn't Amy look different with brunette hair?

KenDoddsDadsDog · 08/04/2011 18:38

Wow! I didn't realise Brian Belo was part of that crew.

jinxediam · 08/04/2011 19:34

I love this show!!! I just moved into deepest Essex from the Faces region so can totally relate to it. We once went down to the Players Lounge on queens Road(or whatever its called now) and were amazed at how deep the girls tans were. I'm a bit of a fake tan queen but felt positively albinoesque by comparison....when I had a spray tan in Woodford the lady told me that the secret to their colour is to seal your spray tan off with a sun bed!!!

LOVE living in Essex...think the village where I moved to go a bit of a shock with the way I look....mind you 6 months on I'm starting to tone down a bit Grin I do miss it tho love my new country life out here Wink

Still never wear an old fleece to do school run like half the mums round here do tho Confused

blighter · 08/04/2011 19:43

i live in essex, most of the mums have big arses Smile

chocolatecoveredlissielou · 08/04/2011 19:45

oh god, im ashamed of how much I love it. Lucy is not very nice really is she? she certainly doesnt hang around when it comes to the recently split up. and then when Joey asked her "do you fancy me? you've missed the boat, I like someone else now" hahahahahahahahahahaha

KenDoddsDadsDog · 08/04/2011 20:55

I just caught up on Wednesday's episode. Lydia has an Adams apple. Strange.
