DVD Description

WARNING--This boxset contains flash cars, bling parties and false boobs. The tans you see might be fake but the people are real and it has all been boxed purely for your entertainment--the complete series 1 & 2 of the BAFTA Award winning hit show, The Only Way is Essex.

“I compare Essex to LA, we all live the same sort of lifestyle, we’ve got as much money, we’ve got the same tans and I think we’re better looking as well”--Mark Wright.

Meet Mark and his long suffering on/off girlfriend Lauren as they struggle with their tempestuous relationship. Can Mark keep his roving eye and hands to himself when faced with sexy Sam and sultry Lucy.
Follow bubbly beautician Amy and Cousin Harry as they introduce us to the Vajazzle, a definitive Essex spray chart and glamping! Join nightclub owner Kirk as he goes head to head with Mark while trying to steer his own way to true love. Cheer along loveable Arg as he pursues his ultimate love Lydia. And slip into the ridiculously tight shoes of Joey Essex as he and model cousin Chloe burst onto the scene.

Don’t miss out, don’t get jel. Join them all and many more. For anything can happen in The Only Way is Essex. It’s bursting with more, drama, tears, tantrums and sayings than a plate full of Nanny Pat’s sausage plait - It’s totally Reem.

Television is only allowed to be this trashy if it's also entertaining - and this fell well short of the mark.

The first and second series of The Only Way Is Essex is filled with moronic chit-chat about plastic surgery, Page 3 and integrated with shots of intimate hair removal and sequins.

There would certainly be some comfort in believing that the cast are all actors, told to look the way they do and say the things they say, because then we wouldn't have to face the reality that people like this really do exist.

However, not even the worst scriptwriter in the world could dream up the drivel these halfwits come out with, so unfortunately we have to conclude that the cast comprises real people.

The programme as a whole has the air of being the result of a deeply regretful one-night stand between Hollyoaks and The Hills. I like trashy TV as much as the next person, but this really is a new low. An insult to viewer intelligence and more importantly, an insult to Essex.

Surprisingly alright! 24 Oct 2011
Format:DVD
I am a complete TV snob. When this came out last year I dismissed it straight away as being stupid and a waste of time. However recently I've wanted things to watch on rainy sundays/cold weeknights and thought I'd give it a try. It's actually very compelling - it's never going to stretch your brain-cells all that far, admittedly, but for filler-tv to have on when you have nothing else to do or just want something on in the background it's great.

It's actually got some quite dry and funny humour in it. You just can't take it too seriously. Most of the people in it aren't that endearing but everyone has moments in it where you find yourself caring about them....then you remind yourself it's just tv...and feel a bit silly!

Only watch it in short doses though otherwise you might find yourself thinking in an Essex accent!
