Oh my gosh, Kirk trying to secure more airtime on future episodes. Hahaha

If Lauren really wants to be with Mark, she'll swallow her pride and try and get on with his family.
Also Joey and his UGGs!! And his car! He is HILARIOUS. Spin off itv2?

This episode is immense! Monkeys

I love Joey. He's just awesome. He makes me cry with laughter.

His stupidity is funny especially his little 'what was that!?' twitch in the woods but I really can't see myself watching a whole show of him. Best taken in small doses throughout an episode just how it is now.

It would be like giving Brian Belo his own show ......... EXACTLY!

Sorry i must be in a minority, i just think he is acting thick and have done from the off, monkeys??, yeah sure Joey as the other poster said Brian Bello!

LMAO Amy, is it a 5, a 4 or a 3???

Please, please, please, for the love of God, get Gemma and Joey off my TV.

exactly what i have been thinking, they are doing my head in.

Big Elephants Can't Always Use Small Exits

Please...this guy is genuis. Best character on the show haha

What is the point of Gemma? They might as well have took Nanny Pat camping.

I'm not convinced his stupidity is all an act, but he's so annoying. And Gemma - desperate much?

Even if he's faking it, he's still a comedy genius imo!

I think that was my favourite episode to date. The glamping was ridiculous but brilliant.

I didn't like Joey initially but he is cracking me up this episode thus providing me entertainment. All you can do is just laugh at him.

I have never understood the reasoning behind the casting of Gemma.

I'm not being funny but, why is it that everything that comes out of her mouth begins with "I'm not being funny but...".

She's pointless.

'Glamping' was hilarious though.

I accept i could be wrong and he isnt acting, BUT i have watched enough reality shows to see how far acting "thick" gets a contestant, i mean Brian Bello he won big brother!!!Helen on bb2 started it off and i believed her as nobody else had been on tv like that before. as for Gemma where has she come from all of a sudden she is hanging around with Amy and Harry. and yes desperate, for airtime maybe

Sam is obviously stringing Joey along. I just hope he's in on the storyline.

Mark's Mum's face is asking for a slap. They were kids! Kids break up and make up all the time!
Lauren is really trying with her, but she's not having it!

I'm from Essex originally, and that was one of the things that loads of people would say!

Another popular saying was "then he turned around and said..." / "then she turned around and said..."

When I was a kid, I used to image adults constantly turning around. Actually, I can imagine Nanny Pat using that catchphrase.

I love the scenes between joey (ream)essex and chloe. She is always as bemused as we are.

Talking of Mark's mum's face, what one earth was going on with (what I hope was) her make up? It looked like someone had already given her a smack

i noticed that, i thought she had slapped cheek syndrome

I wish they'd just get rid of Lauren and Mark now. I actually laughed when she said to Arg "it's getting boring now" she'd bloody know, her highlight came when she screamed at Mark at her Birthday party in episode one, and she's gone further downhill from there.

Would love to see an episode of just Sam/Harry/Kirk/Amy/Lucy and the Newbies.

Chloe cracks me up, I don't care that her face is a mess, she seems genuine, nice and a laugh.

Joey and Sam are brilliant.

Love Maria and Popey.

Amy,Harry and Gemma make a nice little group as well.

Only issue with the show is Mark and Lauren, they aren't interesting, noone believes them and they can't even begin to act natural around each other it's awful.

And why was Lauren the same colour as Jake from the Tweenies tonight?

I love Mark

'stop moping ar'and in your cardies with yer 'ed hanging down'

I totally agree, she is a smart girl, and knows season 2 is The Joey show, so has either cleverly aligned herself with him, or happily playing along with a producers suggestion. Joey is smitten with her and so dead sweet, I hope he never fully catches on what is going on. I really hope his Reem nights with Kirk and his dad work out.

The producers are obviously keeping a very close eye on forums like this and twiiter/fb etc to see who is popular and who isn't, as we have seen from the Kirk embargo, and Maria taking centre stage frequently.

I must be one of the few who like Gemma, she brings an extra dimension to their general ditziness.

Loved the glamping toilet scenes, and Gemma pushing Harry off the chair.

Great episode, but feel sorry for Lydia. Arg is feelng all woe is me as he has tried to woo her back, the past couple of weeks, but seems to conveniently forget his behaviour towards her, when he wsas off out with Mark, who made little asides on the programme about how Arg wasn;t innocent etc, and how they were even swapping personalities.

I'm still recovering from the explanation of why he was taking two boomerangs on the trip:

"This one's a fun boomerang — you can have a laugh with it, throw it and it'll come back to you — and this one, that'll take a kangaroo's head off!"

Harry's dyed his hair!

Lauren flashes her knickers and looks slimmer.

I wonder how Lydia and Arg got on whilst there?

Chloe and Kirk's dad in the last pic. Hmmmmm!? I always wondered if they secretly hook up off camera...

... but hey its only a ride at the fair, can't assume anything from a pic.
