Another trip to Essex and more drama between the beautiful people of the county as The Only Way Is Essex returned tonight (October 4).

Following on from Sunday's episode that saw the Chloe M-Courtney-Myles-Taylor bitchiness EXPLODE, the fallout continued.

Viewers had a warning for Chloe M in her dealings with the situation:

Others supported the girls trying to maintain their friendship and criticised Myles for getting between them:

And so Taylor met with Myles for a "chat" – with nothing resolved after it. If anything, just more resentment built between the friends:

It seemed to continue playing on Myles' mind because he turned up at Courtney's house to apologise, with Chloe telling him she was still too angry to even listen to what he had to say.

What to Read Next

After Myles left, Chloe told Courtney he has left her with insecurity issues concerning her relationship with Taylor.

Some viewers thought Chloe should have accepted Myles' apology:

But others felt it was a sign of how strong Chloe's friendship is with Courtney:

Elsewhere, Yaz and Lockie's fallout was still rippling at the start of the episode, despite matching tattoos they'd got of each others' initials:

A sit-down with Lockie's sister seemed to sort things out between the pair, who later shared a date night and even discussed marriage and kids.

Familiar territory, Lockie?!

Others thought the couple were sweet:

Find out what the future holds for the couples on TOWIE when the show returns to ITVBe on Sunday at 10pm.
