You can question TV’s current Rosebud-like obsession with stuff that used to make us happy as kids all you like; the truth is that watching Richard Ayoade being wry to people dressed like ghostbusters is just good medicine.

Lucy Mecklenburgh will never make a ''permanent'' return to 'The Only Way is Essex' The 24-year-old reality TV star turned her back on the show two years ago in order to focus on her fitness venture and, although she hasn't ruled out going back for a few scenes, she's adamant she'll never make the programme her priority.

James 'Arg' Argent piled on the weight straight after he finished competing on the new diet show 'Sugar Free Farm'. The 'Only Way is Essex' star managed to drop three stone with the help of the new programme, which sees celebrities give up sugar and slave away on a farm for hours on end, but he didn't manage to completely beat the bulge and let the pounds creep back on almost immediately. Arg's girlfriend Lydia Bright said: ''He lost a lot of weight from that but he didn't completely keep that off. Arg will always be a yo-yo dieter but stabilising...

James 'Arg' Argent has injured his leg training for 'The Jump'. The 'Only Way is Essex' star, 28, has only just hit the Austria slopes in preparation for the winter sports show but has already been forced to pull out temporarily because he's knocked his knee and it's swollen to the size of a ''golf ball.'' Speaking to Arg's girlfriend Lydia Bright at the National Television Awards in London last night (20.01.16), she said: ''He's doing very well but unfortunately he's injured himself already. Very premature, he's knocked his leg and he's got some golf ball on his leg. He's the...

Lydia Bright is concerned her boyfriend James 'Arg' Argent will ''break some bones'' when he competes on 'The Jump'. The 'Only Way is Essex' star can't wait to see her beau take part in the winter sports show but she's terrified he'll injure himself because he's never hit the ski slopes before. She explained to Ok! Online: ''We're a little bit nervous, because a lot of the contestants going on there are super-fit and Arg is probably the underdog, so let's just hope he doesn't break any bones! ''He might just shock us all. He's never skied before. The other day, he was...

Lydia Bright says she's ''grumpy'' in the morning. The 'Only Way is Essex' star has admitted she's never in a very good mood when she wakes up and prefers to do most of her tasks - including working out - in the early evening. She said: ''I'm more of an evening person. I'm not a very good morning person. ''I would just go to the gym grumpy and moaning if I had to go there in the morning. I'm more of like an evening person because I like going to the gym with my friends after work.'' And, although she might leave...

Lydia Bright thinks her boyfriend James 'Arg' Argent would gatecrash her wedding if she ever married someone else. The 'Only Way is Essex' star, 25, has dated her smitten co-star on/off for the past eight years and is planning to get hitched to him in the near future, but believes all hell would break loose if she settled down with someone else.

Vas has broken down in tears while apologising for his behaviour on The Only Way Is Essex.

The reality star was in an emotional mood when saying sorry to Chloe Sims, Debbie Bright and Lydia Bright, having made negative comments about them.

During an emotional Halloween party, Vas told Debbie that he often secludes himself as a defence mechanism.

Elsewhere, Chloe admitted that the tension between her and Vas is a result of drama between her and Lauren Pope.

She said: "She almost does think she's a bit above everybody. The likes of Danielle and Lydia and people like that.

"I don't know whether her influence has influenced you. And you've kind of got trapped in the middle of it all."

Meanwhile, the romance between Ferne McCann and Liam Blackwell could be over after an unfortunate misunderstanding about Liam bringing another girl to the pie and mash party.

The pair clashed at the party,...

It looks like things could be over for The Only Way is Essex's troubled couple Arg and Lydia, when they fail to resolve their issues in tonight's episode.

Instead of clearing the air, she texts him and asks him for more time to think.

However, Arg doesn't have much time for tears when Tommy, Dan and Diags arrive to take him camping for the night.

Elsewhere, others are having a nicer time when it comes to matters of the heart - Lockie and Danni continue to flirt and a reunion for the pair could be on the cards.

Also up for a possible reunion are Jake and Chloe. Lewis and Nicole also build bridges but Mike turning up could ruin things.

Meanwhile, when Ferne, Danni, Billie and Pete have a lunch date, baby Nelly takes a shine to 'perfect man' Pete.

The Only Way Is Essex continues on October 28 at 10pm on ITVBe.

The Only Way Is Essex airs on ITVBe at 10pm on Sunday, October 25.

Arg seeks comfort from his mum after Lydia rejects his heartfelt letter.

Lydia gets teary eyed as she offloads her emotions onto Tommy and Georgia before heading on a girls' night out to try and forget about the drama.

Elsewhere, Kate is left speechless when Dan, Diags and Lockie turn up in full Top Gun outfits so Dan can impress her.

In dating news, Lewis takes Nicole to a sports hall for a date and Jess, feeling guilty about where she left things with Pete, spots him out and asks him for another shot.

The drama continues on The Only Way is Essex on October 21 on ITVBe at 10pm.

Drama is never far around the corner with The Only Way is Essex's Arg and Lydia, and the couple have been involved in a huge row on the show.

Finally, Arg helps Diags impress Fran with a photography session.

The Only Way Is Essex airs tonight (October 14) at 10pm on ITVBe.

Judging by these comments, Towie's Ferne McCann might not be tuning into the new Made in Chelsea series when it returns to our television screens.

Discussing who the worst celebrity she's ever encountered is, the reality TV star told Digital Spy: "I've met Spencer Matthews on a number of occasions and he's always been the same - which is really rude.

"And the thing is, you're in the same industry and you think, we both knew who each other is. Maybe he doesn't know who I am. Even if he didn't know, he could still be polite.

"I'm always like, 'Hi, are you alright?' and he's been bit of an arse really. Just like offish and rude and not very friendly, not very warm, cold. Maybe I keep catching him on a bad day," she continued.

The Only Way is Essex returned to ITVBe last night (October 4) with its Marbella special spin-off.

The Only Way Is Essex returns tonight (October 4), and it looks like business as usual.

On their trip to Marbella, James 'Arg' Argent arrives late but when his other half, Lydia Bright, tells him that Vas J Morgan has been none too kind towards her, Arg calls him out leading to a heated exchange.

But anything the boys can do, the girls can do better, as Chloe Lewis and Ferne McCann get their verbal claws out when Chloe suggests Ferne has feelings for Jake Hall.

New arrivals also have their moment to shine as James 'Diags' Bennewith spots Dan Edgar's ex-girlfriend Katie on the beach, before she spots Lauren Pope at the pool and questions Lauren about the current status of her fling with Dan.

Viewers will also see Katie's friend Michael start to catch the eye of the singletons.

The Only Way Is Essex airs tonight at 10pm on ITVBe.

Towie's Ferne McCann thinks former castmate Gemma Collins is re-entering the jungle - but has warned that "if she fluffs it up again, she's just going to be a joke".

Collins, who quit the jungle after just four days in 2014, recently announced she was leaving The Only Way is Essex.

Speaking to Digital Spy along with fellow Towie star Jessica Wright, Ferne said: "We've heard the rumours and I reckon she's going back in. If she goes in - you only get one second chance and if she fluffs it up again she's just going to be a joke."

Jessica added: "She's got to make sure that this time she does it properly."

And will the cast miss her now that she's quit?

"I'm going to massively miss Gemma," Ferne enthused. "Everyone's really sad that she's left. We missed her in Marbs and we think the viewers are going to miss her.

Gear up, for the new series of The Only Way Is Essex is coming very soon.

The new promo for the reality show brings all the Hollywood drama in a movie trailer-style setup.

"From the producers of The Only Way Is Essex comes brand new... The Only Way Is Essex", the dramatic voiceover proclaims.

All your favourites are in the trailer, including Bobby spanking another man's behind and Arg and Lydia embracing, alongside plenty of shocked faces.

Gemma Collins left The Only Way Is Essex because of Twitter abuse - and diarrhea

"The most shocking and seductive show of the year," declares the narrator - we'll take their word for it.

The new series of The Only Way Is Essex returns with an hour-long Marbella special on ITVBe this Sunday, October 4.

James 'Arg' Argent and Lydia Bright have opened up about their "rollercoaster" romance on The Only Way Is Essex.

The couple, who return in the new series of the show next month, recently moved in together.

"I went through a hard time going through a very open breakup with James, and I wish that I had been stronger," Bright said.

"I didn't do myself any favours by getting back with James again and again, and causing myself many more tears and heartbreak."

Argent described the relationship as "an up-and-down rollercoaster of true love".

"There are some things I wish I hadn't done, like the upset I caused Lydia. But we were real people with real lives and you live and learn, and I'm a better man because of it," he added.

Bright admitted that she had learnt the most from Argent and her mum over the years.

"They...

When The Only Way Is Essex started, it shook up television. Here was a soap opera... but with real people! It's hard to remember now that we've had everything from Desperate Scousewives to The Valleys, but at the time it was genuinely revolutionary.

Sure, it had its critics, but Towie quickly became a phenomenon - ordinary people were asking for vajazzles at their local salons; some started using the word "reem" in complete seriousness. And then, after the rise, came the fall. The backlash. The original cast members leaving. The complaints that it was all a bit samey. The utter nadir of Towie Live (let's never talk of that again).

But slowly, quietly, Towie has been working hard to get its mojo back - and golly, we think it's done it.

The latest series of the show - which came to an end last night - has been funny, witty,...

If, like us, you screamed: "What video?" at your television after the last episode of Towie, you'll be pleased to hear that Vas J Morgan's footage rears its ugly head in tonight's series finale.

Vas shows the video - which features some incriminating footage of Lockie - to Lauren Pope and Verity Chapman, but obviously it doesn't just stay between them.

Vas ends up showing Lockie the video himself, but when Danielle Armstrong finds out about it how will she react?

It looks like she and Lockie share a kiss, but is it a kiss goodbye or a kiss of reconciliation?

Danielle's not the only one having a bit of a cry in the finale, as Bobby Norris breaks down while talking to Ferne McCann and Pete Wicks about his feud with Gemma Collins.

In the end, Bobby decides to take matters into his own hands by visiting Gemma at her shop,...

Danielle Armstrong is currently the most emotional girl in Essex, as she's been named the biggest sobber in this series of Towie.

After tonight's finale - in which Danielle breaks down again - she will have cried nine times across the 12-episode series. And if you don't believe us, ITV sent us this handy picture to prove it:

Danni's emotional state is understandable, given that she broke up with her nearly-fiancé Lockie in Marbella at the beginning of the series.

But her bouts of blubbering this series now mean that she is tied for third place with Lydia Bright when it comes to who has cried the most in the entire show, as both of them have wept 21 times (although Lydia only let it out once this series).

The Only Way Is Essex turns 15: How well do you know Towie? Take our quiz to find out

Former cast...

Lewis Bloor says the cast of 'The Only Way Is Essex' are all worried about James 'Arg' Argent. The 25-year-old star of the ITVBe show has confessed he and his co-stars are worried Arg, 27, could fall back in to old habits after his girlfriend Lydia Bright revealed he'd been out drinking following his stint in rehab in December last week. Lewis said: ''She was very angry at the time and she came and spoke to me about it.I said, 'Arg needs support from everyone. It's not your burden to carry solely on your own'. It's a big worry for us all,...

The Gc is most definitely back in The Only Way is Essex.

After last week's showdown between Gemma Collins, Lauren Pope and Bobby-Cole Norris, another row is set to break out that divides the residents of Essex.

That clash started after an unflattering impression Lauren made of Gemma and ended with Bobby "wearing a cheap glass of sauvignon blanc" in his own words.

The drama picks up again in tonight's episode as Gemma breaks down to Ferne, Chloe S and Danni - promising she will "never speak to Bobby again" and calling Lauren a "rat".

Elsewhere in the county, Lauren and Vas discuss their side of how the argument developed and Lauren says she thinks Gemma's problem is she "genuinely doesn't like that [they're] not intimated by her".

But Lauren and Vas's attempts to clear the air with Bobby backfire, as his other friends warn him not to shun Gemma.

If this week's edition of The Only Way Is Essex is anything to go by, Gemma Collins's friends should never do impressions of her.

What starts as a slightly snide vocal impersonation by Lauren Pope turns nasty when Gemma gets wind of the prank.

Towie Mario Falcone defends Jake Hall's jealousy: 'He shows he loves Chloe'

Towie Mario, Ferne defend Pete Wicks from 'jealous' Lewis, Tommy

Gemma's showdown with Lauren and Vas J Morgan gets going with Gemma quipping that the impression shows "[Lauren's] got a bit of personality babe".

That doesn't sit well with Lauren, who fires back: "I'd rather have my personality than your personality any day of the week!'

Things go from bad to worse when Gemma waves off Vas's demands for her to leave Lauren alone, as she declares: "I don't go nowhere because I'm the Gc. She's back!"

Bobby-Cole Norris...

Lydia Bright believes she's going to be with boyfriend James 'Arg' Argent ''forever''. Despite constant questions asking her when she's going to tie the knot, the 'Towie' babe insists she's in no rush to get married to Arg now they've rekindled their relationship because she knows their love is the real deal. The blonde beauty exclusively told Bang Showbiz: ''I got asked on live TV the other day and I was like, 'Oh it's not for me to decide!' It was on 'Good Morning Britain' and they asked, 'Is he proposing?' and I can't really answer because I've not been proposed...

As The Only Way Is Marbs continues, Danielle Armstrong and James Lock's relationship hangs in the balance.

Tonight's (June 17) episode sees the pair taking a break from their romance, but there are more tears to be had when Chloe tells an already upset Danni that James was planning to propose.

Chloe and Elliott Wright find themselves wrapped up in the couple's problems when Elliott takes offence with Danni, leading to "one of the most heated rows in Towie history".

Elsewhere, things get awkward when Vas J Morgan arrives in Marbella, as Lauren Pope is forced to tell Gemma Collins why Vas doesn't want to stay in the villa with the girls and Bobby Norris.

Vas tells Lauren: "I think I'd rather sleep on the beach than sleep in a villa with Gemma Collins and Bobby Norris. Their loud energy, the noise, their bickering. It would be too much for me.

The Only Way is Marbs returned in spectacular fashion last night (June 14), as one couple seemingly split and Bobby Norris debuted his latest piece of modest swimwear.

The spinoff special saw the cast supping Cava and sunning it up in revealing swimming attire in the Spanish city, but before long there were fresh arguments and tears galore among its typically dramatic stars.

Here's seven of the most memorable first episode moments below:

1. Behold the Gold Javelin

Bobby Norris revealed his new swimwear - a skimpy gold thong he spontaneously and oh-so modestly names The Gold Javelin.

Well, at least it boasts more material than the notorious penis sock and the sheer horror of the silver ball bag...

2. James Locke was going to propose?

James Locke revealed to close friend Elliott Wright that he was planning to pop the question and showed him the engagement ring he's been carrying around in his pocket.

Lydia Bright doesn't want a grand proposal from Arg. The 'Only Way is Essex' star ''knows'' she will spend the rest of her life with James 'Arg' Argent so insists there is no pressure for her boyfriend to pull off an elaborate engagement. She said: ''I don't want a big gesture. We've been together for a long time and we know we love each other and are going to spend the rest of our lives together, so there's no pressure on him.'' Though they are not engaged yet, the 24-year-old beauty knows the kind of wedding she wants - and thinks it would...

The Only Way Is Essex stars James 'Arg' Argent and Lydia Bright have said they are "stronger than ever".

The couple have been on and off in the past, but have now moved in together and are all "loved up".

Speaking on This Morning today (June 12), Arg said: "At the moment, me and Lydia are in an extremely good place."

He added: "We've been together since we were teenagers and we've had our ups and downs, but at the moment we are stronger than ever.

"I've moved in with Lydia now and we're very much loved up."

Bright added: "My mum always says we are the modern day Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton!"

Speaking about her experience on the show, Bright said: "I've absolutely loved it.

"We've had amazing lives, got to do and experience amazing things, meet great people - for me, I always pinch myself still...

The Only Way Is Essex star Lydia Bright has revealed that she feels "happier than ever" in her romance with James Argent.

The couple got back together in the last series of Towie after Arg handed Lydia a list of names of women he'd slept with.

"I think the list for me was a massive sign of closure for a very rocky journey that me and James went through," Lydia said.

But she added that she is in love now, saying: "I feel happier than ever."

Lydia admitted that her hardest time on Towie was when Arg was unfaithful because she was "heartbroken", but explained that she loved sharing their reunion with viewers.

"I always say with Towie that when you are going through a good time it is amplified so much," she said. "Getting back with Arg last series was such a special time, and sharing my happiness with the public was amazing.

Move aside David McIntosh... Towie's James Argent is now the title holder of the world's shortest-shorts-wearer, after stepping out in a microscopic pair of baby blue trunks in Marbella.

Although they were quadruple the size of what The Only Way is Essex co-star Bobby Norris attempts to pass of as swimwear, Arg's skimpy swimmers still left very little to the imagination.

The 25-year-old star was joining cast members of the ITVBe show to film the series' annual spin-off special in the sunny Spanish city.

He was pictured hitting the beach with newbie Peter Wicks, who donned a more modest pair of polka-dot trunks.

Chloe Sims, Chloe Lewis, Danielle Armstrong and Brentwood power-couple Georgia Kousoulou and Tommy Mallet were also seen strutting their stuff in their finest swimming attire at the resort earlier this week.

Arg, meanwhile, was snapped getting cosy with on/off girlfriend Lydia Bright.

The Only Way is Essex...

Watch out Marbella! Towie cast members and their ridiculously over-the-top swimwear have officially arrived.

Stars of the ITVBe show are currently filming for the series' annual spin-off special in the Spanish city, kicking off next week (June 14).

Chloe Sims sported platinum blonde hair and made a bold impact in a bright red swimsuit and matching shawl as she soaked up the sun.

Towie super couple Georgia Kousoulou and Tommy Mallet were pictured arriving by their hotel pool, with Georgia in a plunging lace swimsuit while Tommy wore teeny tiny blue trunks and a matching shirt.

Diags kept it casual in bright yellow swimming shorts and a blue shirt with a pair of flip flops, while Chloe Lewis looked appropriately overdressed for the pool in a smart monochrome ensemble.

Danielle Armstrong was channelling her inner Beyoncé (kind of) in a sheer embellished number, and we were also introduced to newbie Peter Wicks,...

Lydia Bright was left in tears when her boyfriend James Argent enjoyed a drink in Marbella. The 25-year-old star was left visibly upset when her 'The Only Way Is Essex' co-star hit the booze as the cast partied during filming despite having spent 28 days in rehab last year. James - who is known as Arg on the ITVBe show - recently claimed to have changed his ''whole lifestyle'' but caused the blonde beauty to storm out of the Spanish town's Cavalli Club after consuming the alcoholic beverages. A source told The Sun newspaper: ''Even though Arg told Lydia he might have a...

The Only Way Is Essex's Tommy Mallet and Georgia Kousoulou have dished the gossip from their recent trip to Dubai.

The pair holidayed with lovebirds James Argent and Lydia Bright, but their public displays of affection left them not knowing where to look.

Georgia said: "Funniest thing is they actually got told off for kissing in the pool, but they're really, really cute. It's like a little love story."

Tommy also predicted that the couple will be married, or at least engaged, by next year.

"I agree," his co-star said.

They may be right, as the on/off couple have taken their relationship to the next level by moving in together.

The Only Way Is Essex wrapped up its most recent series on ITVBe last month, with Arg and Lydia getting back together during the finale.

Meanwhile, Mario Falcone has been suspended from the reality show for a second time.

Congratulations to Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright, who have tied the knot following a ceremony in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.

Towie stars Lydia Bright and James 'Arg' Argent, Keegan's former Coronation Street co-stars Brooke Vincent and Antony Cotton, Strictly Come Dancing stars Karen Hauer and Kevin Clifton, and Wright's mother Carol were amongst the guests at today's event (May 24).

Wright recently enjoyed a five-day stag do extravaganza with mates in Las Vegas, while Ordinary Lies star Keegan claimed she suffered a three-day hangover after her hen celebration in Morocco.

Earlier this month, Bright shared a picture of her invitation to the wedding - but deleted it within seconds.

Keegan previously revealed that Wright was "really hands-on" with the couple's wedding plans.

Wright and Keegan announced their engagement back in 2013.

Lucy Mecklenburgh thinks she was ''too young'' when she joined 'The Only Way Is Essex'. The former Towie star has revealed she banned her sister Lydia from taking part in the ITVBe show because she thought she was too young and now admits she herself should probably have waited until she was older to join. She said: ''She got asked to go on Towie quite a few times but I always said no. ''She was young, she was 17 and I think that's too young. I was 19 and I think that was even still probably too young.'' The 23-year-old beauty - who is...

Lydia Bright insists she and James 'Arg' Argent are a ''mature couple''. The 'Only Way Is Essex' star reunited with her childhood sweetheart earlier this year and claims they're now much more mature because they make hot drinks for one another in the morning. Asked if she was nervous about arguing with Arg during filming for the Marbella special of the ITVBe show, Lydia exclusively told Bang Showbiz at the British Academy Television Awards at London's Theatre Royal: ''Oh no, we're a very mature couple now, those things don't happen.'' However, Lydia's pal and co-star Ferne McCann seemed unconvinced by her claim and...

Lydia Bright and James Argent have moved in together.

Lydia announced she and Arg had rekindled their on/off relationship last month after getting back together in the series finale of Towie.

Just touched down in London Town. Making memories with my love. Thank you @waldorfdubai for cushioning us with a luxurious hotel stay.

In ITV's latest The Only Way is Essex catch up video, Lydia said: "So here's the exclusive, I did actually ask Arg to move in with me."

She added: "I presented him with a little jewellery bag and when he opened it up it had a key in it. I just think we've been together, we've known each other for seven years, we need to get our move on here."

However, it isn't all fun in the house. Lydia said that Arg has...

Towie's Lydia Bright and Ferne McCann opened up about the show's current "full-on" romances and "not so good" break-ups on Lorraine this morning (April 8).

The series finale of ITVBe's Essex-based reality show aired on Easter Sunday, which saw Lydia finally rekindle her romance with a persistent James 'Arg' Argent.

When presenter Gaby Roslin asked Lydia whether she was officially back with Arg, she replied: "I am yeah, I am. After nearly seven years on and off, that's it - we're back together.

"[It's] as on as it possibly can be, yeah - it's full on. Yeah this time for me, that's it."

She went on to say: "Do you know what, we are like childhood sweethearts. We have been together for a long time and we met each other when we were kids so I think that we are always going to have that connection and I'm really happy right now.

One thing you can say about The Only Way is Essex is that it's never short of melodrama that would have you reaching for your 'duff duffs', if you were in a fictional Square somewhere in E20.

This week is no exception, as Towie hurtles towards its finale (well, until the summer) with make-ups, break-ups and shake-ups aplenty.

Oh well, at least baby Nelly has a smile on her face.

Things are looking promising for Arg and Lydia, as she asks him to accompany her to a Mad Hatter's Tea Party.

(Incidentally, why is a raven like a writing de - oh, never mind. Not the time or place.)

Lydia's still got concerns around trust and honesty when it comes to her old flame, though, and it all gets too much for her as she has a heart-to-heart with Lewis, questioning whether she can really move forward.
