The lashes, tan and Joey’s outrageous dress sense (what was with those ski goggles) are back!

Series seven of The Only Way Is Essex hit our small screens on Sunday night. But where to start? Kirk is back, Gemma and Arg have officially split and Sam and Joey are talking babies.

Kirk makes a shock return after falling out with dad Mick and hopes to rebuild bridges with everyone in Essex, especially Lauren Pope. Gemma and Arg are as bad as each other, who actually cheated and should Arg really be taking love advice from One Direction? Sam and Joey go to a tea reading and learn their plan to move in and have kids isn’t so crazy; at least that’s what the tea says.

Meanwhile, Danni and Charlie are hooking up, but Danni doesn’t feel she’s ready for the sexual needs of a boyfriend just yet. Chloe slips up when she drinks far too much on a girl’s night out, badmouthing all the men, and Lydia admits she thinks Tom is ‘the one’.

After a girly night out, Lydia, Frankie, Cara, Billi, Lauren and bride to be Lucy, all try wedding dresses on for giggles. Billi even admits to have never paid for a bill in her life and cuts up her credit card. Gemma’s previous flame Rami makes a comeback, but did Mario tell Rami he could do better than Gemma?

Find out when happens next on The Only Way Is Essex, continuing on Wednesday October 3 at 10pm on ITV2.
