Seriously, does not one of you watch TOWIE?

I need to chat about it, there are no threads which I can find.

Loads of you watch Made in Chelsea so you aren't above any of this crap.

Anyone?

I like Ferne's gravelly voice.

Yes yes yes about awful whiney Ricky. He's a baby.

RoseFlowerFairy · 04/07/2013 09:20

Fearne surrounded herself with Sam and Billie as friends smiling assassins she sounds like she says anything that comes into her head at a given time and wants to please people.

I think the Fearne/Charlie relationship is under huge pressure from friends smiling assassins and family Choloe's Crew It is so obvious Charlie is scared of his family who told him about the Lucy situation.

TigOldBitties · 04/07/2013 09:20

No he didn't, Chloe needs to learn there's sticking up for your family and then there's interfering.

Fine if its some random attack but as Ferne and Chaz have been together 3 years its more like an inter-family argument and she should have let them sort it.

I would have been well pissed off by Chaz acting how he did and not sticking up for her, and then to be such a stroppy wally last night. Ok Ferne needs to stop sharing ll. their conversations but he didn't need to get the hump like that.

Aturtle def swing towards Gemma. She does cringe me out, but I feel for her. Doesn't sound like Rami was being particularly nice behind the scenes, she's the obligatory fat one who they all take the piss out of, she has to stand next to those girls all the time and is obviously really conscious about her weight and appearance, just on that alone I think she deserves some credit.

She does remind me of a sort of Barbie Madam mixed with Wnnie the Pooh.

Poor Charlie, he knows he is going to have a long lecture from Chloe's Crew, With a confused looking Frankie, Joey jumping around randomly and Chloe handing out the rules to them all.

Towie is my guilty pleasure! Dan is gorgeous, almost as lovely as Mark Wright. I can't watch it when my dh is around as he is horrified that I like it! Wink Wink

aturtlenamedmack · 04/07/2013 09:32

Definitely agree with that tig
I'm a similar size and shape to her and I'm not sure I'd have the guts to stand next to those girls every week. You see her vulnerability a lot too, she's probably the most honest. Others try to seem a bit vulnerable (joey) but I don't think hers it put on.

Sparklysilversequins · 04/07/2013 09:33

I hate Arg. So full of himself with absolutely NOTHING to back it up. He's bad for Gemma, really toxic, making it quite clear he wants the slim, pretty girlfriend whose personality doesn't really matter.

Sparklysilversequins · 04/07/2013 09:35

"I told him not to trust you people, now fuck off! Go on, Ta Ta"

Grin. That's when I started liking James.

itsblackoveryonderhill · 04/07/2013 09:36

I've not read all the thread, and I've not watched last nights TOWIE, but yes, I do watch it. It's my guilty pleasure.

the reason why I watch it, is because I can't believe that people are so willing to be manipulated so much by a TV company. I also can't believe that they are happy to be portrayed in such a dumb way. Surely Joey isn't that dumb is he?......

I do like Diags because he has got a dry sense of humour. I've never really got on with Arg, he makes me cringe and I just laugh at Joey. The girls in general are a much of a muchness, although I was shocked about the Lucy sex tape. I would have thought she would be a bit more innocent to do such a thing!

Fairylea · 04/07/2013 09:36

I am addicted to it! Watched every series.. it's totally mindless rubbish but I love it :)

My fave characters are bobby, gemma and Chloe :) I absolutely can't stand Sam!

TigOldBitties · 04/07/2013 09:39

Arg is awful, he looks very Rodenty to me. DH calls him Ratsputin. I want them to being back Mark to take him down a peg or two as he often used to.

Frankie does look confused all the time doesn't she!

Muchocolate you wanna join our family, its an event in our house. DH and I always watch it together, usually with the DCs, whatever friends of theirs that are round and quite often my mum. We send the TOWIE TIME text to get everyone to come and watch. Intellectuals that we are Blush I just love the gossipy aspect to it.

Dan is so hawt though not sure if he's about to be revealed as a bellend like the rest of them, and I'd probably give James a go too.

Oh and when did Mario and Little Chris make up. At the end of last series, they were throwing eye daggers at each other and now they are best buddies.

That's the only thing that annoys me about the program is that the writers do stuff that doesn't makes sense.

Likewise with Bobby and Gemma, on one program he was threatening to rip her wig off, then in the next they were having best buddies hearts to hearts.Confused

TigOldBitties · 04/07/2013 09:41

And Joey is definitely putting it on. He isn't that stupid, he couldn't have survived this long if he was and the crying is just a childish behaviour he doesn't appear to have grown out of. Sam needs an older guy.

OP posts:
aturtlenamedmack · 04/07/2013 09:41

Gemma is a fall back for Arg, he keeps her around to massage his ego and for a shag if he has no better offers. As soon as she starts to move on a bit he's pissed off so goes out of his way to woo her and then as soon as she starts to like him again he treats her like shit. Totally toxic!

RoseFlowerFairy · 04/07/2013 09:41

Diags and Tom confuse me, why give up a career as a trader in the city and a career in Law to appear in TOWIE?

aturtlenamedmack · 04/07/2013 09:44

Did they really rose
Which one was which?
Love Diags!

RoseFlowerFairy · 04/07/2013 09:46

Arg reminds me of a rodent facially also, he has a female bodyshape too. What puts me off Arg the most is the fact the others say he is unclean and delights in farting publically.

TigOldBitties · 04/07/2013 09:46

Tom is the trader and diags was studying law.

But I think Tom still does some work from home/when not filming and I'm sure I read he's studying for some professional qualification.

Diags didn't even finish his degree so I don't think it was going anywhere anyway.

Fuck I need to stop reading so much about them all.

This thread already means I will be doing zero work today.

aturtlenamedmack · 04/07/2013 09:46

sparkly that was amazing wasn't it, little Chris is awful, such a snivelling little rat.

Sparklysilversequins · 04/07/2013 09:47

I feel sorry for the producers! Grin. Big row between Gemma and Bobby, they fall out then they obviously make up in between filming, so then it's all different.

Not one person has mentioned Jasmine or Abby on this thread. I predict they will not be appearing in next season as no one cares one bit about them.

I wonder what Mark is saying about Jess sticking it out with Ricky?

Hashtagwhatever · 04/07/2013 09:48

I do, I do

Diags is my fave aww

RoseFlowerFairy · 04/07/2013 09:48

Tom was a trader, there was a scene once with him in his house showing Joey and someone else how to trade on the markets, he has also referred to having a degree in other episodes.

Diags has a Law degree, he was chatting about it to Chloe when helping her with her CV.

valiumredhead · 04/07/2013 09:48

I think the fight happens next episode sparkly!

itsblackoveryonderhill · 04/07/2013 09:49

Yes, Rose, why? When I told DH that, he said that they can't be that bright; to decide that 'sleb fame' is worth more than a proper career and it proves they are quite superficial.

I would love to be landed in the middle of it all and see how they would react (in the their TOWIE Characters) to 'normal' people like us and what would the conversations be about? I don't know if I could cope with the gossiping to tell the truth.
