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?

Mark having anything to say at all will be hilarious. It's ok to treat women like shit, unless she happens to be my sister.

RoseFlowerFairy · 04/07/2013 09:53

I think Tom is quite savvy and I am sure TOWIE won't ruin his career. Diags, how on earth can any client in any form of law other than some sort of celebrity law take him seriously now, after watching Chloe giving him lessons on Sudocrem and how to wash his face, and after we all saw him get his willy out to be tested for a STI?

That James and little Chris moment was one of my favourites, really turned me onto him.

I was thinking about Jasmine and Abi. I think Abi could be excellent for Diags and I do think Jasmine is really beautiful but I think by not being particularly in with the other girls, they were never going to stick around too long.

I watch too. Can't help it!

I grew up in Essex but now live in Kent (near bluewater) so I guess I'm still an Essex girl at heart.

I cringe all the time however no one is allowed to take the piss out of Essex. Apart from me.

RoseFlowerFairy · 04/07/2013 09:58

Does anyone know what the fight between Jasmine and the others was all about?

Abi seems quite a nice girl actually, kind and genuine, I agree she would be good for Diags, just what he needs. I would like Abi to say, not bothered by Jasmine and her family at all.

Shock multum you've crossed the river?!

I love mocking Essex but get a bit stroppy when people who don't know it do the same.

I think a while ago I had an AIBU To Love Essex thread which went very well.

And when James offered to wear his monkey suit and sit round Joeys house Grin. He was great in that episode.

aturtlenamedmack · 04/07/2013 10:01

Was it between her and Lucy? I'm not sure what about though, other than maybe that she was spending a lot of time with Mario.
Agree, really don't mind Abby but think Jasmine will definitely go next season.
And her bother too, he's so creepy. He's modelled himself on Joey but he's kind of stiff and not funny. I'd be scared if I were Joey!

RoseFlowerFairy · 04/07/2013 10:03

Aturtlenamedmack, Maybe it was over the Bentley dog pictures?

TigOldBitties · 04/07/2013 10:05

I think Jasmine and Lucy fought, with a little help from Abi and Jess over Lucy feeling slighted that Jasmine was spending tim with Mario in marbs.

I think in the first ep of the series Mario and Jasmine were sharing drinks together and Lucy walked past making a snidey you're welcome to him type comment.

Te fight was at Arg's BBQ, where they had the hot dog eating competition, but the producers decided not to show it because they didn't want to promote violence/didn't think it was appropriate apparently.

Now it sounds like Dan and Jasmine also had a thing in marbs, I can't see her and Lucy becoming friends.

aturtlenamedmack · 04/07/2013 10:05

Haha rose maybe.
I think Lucy should start an AIBU about that and see how it goes.

RoseFlowerFairy · 04/07/2013 10:07

That would mean Jasmine had Dan and Mario, the same Men as Lucy had, on a 7 day holiday?

TigOldBitties · 04/07/2013 10:13

I don't think jasmine exactly had them, I think she just shared a drink/hung out with Mario that one evening which Lucy took as her choosing sides. It was mentioned she kissed Dan, may have been more but we're yet to find out.

RoseFlowerFairy · 04/07/2013 10:50

Lucy is a warped individual anyways, a very beautiful externally one. The way she behaved towards people like little Chris, yes he is a knob blaming him and Mario for the relationship she had with Marion, she is very deluded, won't take responsibility for anything, nobody forced her to stay with or choose the men she spends her time with, she made those choices. I don't know why Lucy gets annoyed at Marion anyways, same with Jess, they are cheats themselves. Lucy cheated with Mark on Mario more than once and Jess said in the bath episode with Ricky, she cheated on every man she had a relationship with.

MultumInParvo · 04/07/2013 11:13

Love that typo rose Grin @ Marion!!

Yes yes tig moved over for luurve. I lived in Dagenham too. The poshest part of Essex natch.

Hi there,

We've moved this thread over to Telly Addicts now.

Still18atheart · 04/07/2013 11:31

It's my guilty pleasure Blush

I find it so ridiculous but funny at the same time

TigOldBitties · 04/07/2013 11:40

Oh Multum, you sound like Romeo and Juliet of the Thames estuary. Yes I definitely think the heathway could be described as classy, although Broad Street is the really top notch area don't ya know.

Thanks Rebecca for moving my thread. Now all TOWIE fans can congregate here on Wednesdays and Sundays.

And I'm going to have to insist we only call him Marion from now on thanks to Rose.

He gets uglier by the episode, I think it's just his vindictive bile slowly seeping out through his pores.

I LOVE TOWIE, have watched every series.

Joey has always been my favourite, although I don't think he has come across as well this series. I like Tom & Diags too. Arg is a twat.

Quite like Sam & Billie, Sam looks way older than 21 though, Billie is gorgeous, she never seems to have much of a storyline though does she?

Used to like Chloe but shes been a bit of a cow lately, where has Frankie disappeared to this series?

Cant stand Bobby and Charlie (not ferns boyfriend) is pointless.

Mario is an absolute arse and Ricky isn't much better.

Sparklysilversequins · 04/07/2013 12:08

I think Billie has a boyfriend who doesn't want to be in it. It's hard to have much of a storyline if you are not willing to offer up your love life for public consumption I suppose.

Plopsicle · 04/07/2013 12:09

Ricky is doing my head in acting like a martyr for confessing to Jess, he only bloody told her because Mario dropped him in it, wanker.

and Little Chris is a shit stirring little turd, loved James telling him to F Off.

Plopsicle · 04/07/2013 12:11

Oh that makes sense about Billie, she's done well to stick with her boyfriend and not get sucked in to all the dramas of the show.

Sparklysilversequins · 04/07/2013 12:15

I predict Jess and Ricky's relationship won't last much longer. She will dump him, but not before a good few episodes of it deteriorating into complete chaos. She's in shock at the moment that's why she is still hanging on.

TigOldBitties · 04/07/2013 12:32

Think Billies boyfriend is called Greg, have seen him on her twitter, yes I am that sad.

I think she was with someone else before but hasn't ever had any of them participate in the show.

I don't know if any of you remember Marion and Lucy's engagement party where Frankie threw a punchbowl at the guy Jamie (?), that was because he was discussing sleeping with both Frankie and Billie. Billie was very quiet about the whole thing. I think she prefers that side of her life to be private.
