Wow so much hate for Arg, where are all the objective people here? Arg is a vunerable, insecure person whose trying to grow as a person and become this confident, alpha male, however he projects all of his issues on to women and comes off as hurtful and manipulative. He just hasn't dated anyone thats right for him yet. The women are just as much part of the problem, Lydia and Gemma are enablers as they let him walk all over them so of course he's going to get worse. It's like leting an alcoholic drink all the time.
I personally like Arg on this show, compared to Tom P or Tom K or Mario who are all so boring. Arg carries the show, he has personality, charm and character. Without Arg, Towie would be a ratings disaster. I love the kid and so many guys look up to him. I'm proud he's no longer the wimpy number 2 guy we saw on series 1-3.
