The Only Way Is Essex

Sunday, 25 September 2011, 10:15PM – 11:00PM

The Only Way Is Essex – the show that gave us the ‘vajazzle’ and made everything ‘reem’ is back for a third series this Autumn on ITV2. 

Our colourful cast once again welcome you into their uber –glamorous Essex community – so expect lots of action in nail bars, nightclubs and tanning salons! As always, the series will be filmed close to transmission ensuring everything that happens with our cast remains as dramatic and explosive as the previous episode. 

Series 2 saw our Essex community grow with the likes of Joey Essex, Chloe Simms and Gemma Collins joining the cast. Who will enter our lives for series 3? Who will the viewers take to their heart? And what will Mark, Sam, Arg, Lydia and co get up to?! 

ITV’s Commissioning Editor for Comedy and Entertainment, Claire Zolkwer said “As always in Essex, I’m sure the new series will feature lots of partying, arguing and the latest wise words from Nanny Pat!” 

Lime Pictures’ Creative Director Tony Wood said “It’s been a busy summer down in Essex and the plot’s thickening nicely. Our stars will return together with one or two new surprise packages. I can’t wait to get going.” 

The Only Way Is Essex will be executive produced by Shirley Jones and overseen by All 3 Media’s Ruth Wrigley who was one of the first producers of Big Brother as well as Lime Creative Director Tony Wood who has worked on Coronation Street, Hollyoaks and Emmerdale. It was commissioned for ITV2 by Claire Zolkwer, commissioning editor, ITV Entertainment.
