Love reading all of your opinions on the show. I become a bit of an obsessive when the new series starts
My eldest daughter appeared on the last series as an extra (in Gemma's birthday scene). She loves watching it also but definitely changed her opinion on most of the characters once she'd met them.
She said some of the girls that she came into contact with (Sam, Billy, Jess and her Mum) were very b*tchy and Jess and her Mum breezed through all of the extras wearing full length furs and their noses in the air!
She also said Lauren G wasn't very nice (no shocks there for me I'm afraid - I'm not a huge fan). Arg constantly preened himself in fron of a mirror and wouldn't have his 'photo taken with them.
Joey wasn't as friendly (or as thick as he makes out). She said Diags was lovely as was Mick.

Hi Bella
thanks for posting, I love reading peoples accounts of meeting the towie lot or working on the show, but at the same time it ruins my enjoyment of the show.
Why do they need to hire extras? (no offence to your daughter) It seems even faker than we already thought.

If I'm honest, I don't know what possessed me to read the article in the first place. >_<”

I read that article and seen as they were interviewing Jess, Sam, Lucy, Mario, and Ricky, it doesn't surprise me they said that.
Jess is who she had teh fight with. Sam and Lucy dislike Lauren G because THEY slept with her boyfriend. Mario is lucy's bf and Ricky is trying to get with Jess
Jess's mum and nan will obviously side with her, Billie and probably Arg.
However, Frankie who was actually there when they had the argument, is supporting Lauren. As are Lauren P, Gemma, Lydia and Chloe. I guess you could add in Joey as he would probably go with his sister and cousin.
I don't know about Arg but would guess Jess as he is so chummy with the Wright family.
