James 'Arg' Argent - who has recently rekindled his three-year on-off romance with co-star Lydia Bright - confirmed he is "100 per cent" returning for the third season of the ITV2 reality show, and promised the programme will come back with a bang.
Writing on his twitter page, he said: "Every1s loving TOWIE repeats on @itv2 I'm 100% back 4 Series 3 which starts end of September, gona be bigger and better then ever I promise! (sic)"
However, fellow cast member Kirk Norcross has admitted his role in 'TOWIE' will take a "dark" turn following his recent split from long-term girlfriend Lauren Pope, who also appears in the show.
He said: "'TOWIE' is about our lives, so it could get a bit dark on the show, but I don't want to over-analyse anything. I know it's me that ended it but if I see her with another guy it's gonna kill me.
"I'd let her do it and I would be happy for her, but inside it would kill me. I still love her. I want her to find someone else but I think it would kill any guy! I've just got to take it on the chin."
