Stars of The Only Way Is Essex have promised viewers their ‘sexiest’ show yet whilst filming the summer special in Marbella later in the month.

Bosses of the hit ITV2 reality show revealed last month their intentions to make a summer special at the resort frequently visited by the show’s cast, and yesterday confirmed that  Lucy Mecklenburgh and boyfriend Mario Falcone, James Argent and his ex Lydia Bright, and Sam Faiers and her on-off-on again fella Joey Essex would all be jetting out to film it.

An insider said: “Those who have been chosen to go to Marbella can’t wait.

“The girls have pledged it will be the sexiest Towie ever, with lots of bikinis and bare flesh on show.

“There will be a lot of boozy partying and cameras will follow them 24/7 for a week.”

It may prove to be an awkward holiday for Lucy and Mario, going back to the place where she cheated on him last year with former TOWIE star, Mark Wright.

One person who wont be digging out her passport is Lauren Goodger who enraged bosses last week at the party to celebrate co-stars James, Billi and Cara’s London Marathon triumph, after she got drunk and threw an impressive diva style tantrum claiming that she was the star of the show, and threatening to go to MTV with her sisters to become the UK’s answer to the Kardashian’s.

Show producers instantly halted her filming schedule, removed her from that Sundays episode and have arranged a make or break meeting later this week to discuss her future with the show.
