By Cecile Metcalf and J J Anisiobi


After a few days of sun, sea and sangria, it was time for the cast of The Only Way Is Essex, to get back to their day jobs.

Series veteran Lucy Mecklenburgh joined her boyfriend Mario Falcone on a Marbella beach as they began filming for the special episode.

The super tanned couple showed off their equally good bodies as the waited for a boat to pick them up for a romantic trip across the water.

Mario, 24, looked great with his biceps, pectorals and toned torso in full view with just a small pair of navy blue shorts and sunglasses to cover him up.

The tailor was sporting a new haircut with shaved sides and a massive gelled back quiff.

He took care of the couple's belongings and carried all their beach items in a large black Gucci duffle bag.

Lucy and her naughty beau put on a stunning display of togetherness for the cameras - as she modelled one of the costumes from her new line of bikinis.

While Mario chose to wear some sensible flip flops, his girlfriend put fashion first and carried a pair of wedges as they finally made it from the beach to the boat.

With a designated driver at the helm, the two reality stars only had to sit down and enjoy the journey.

Catch of the day: The tanned couple found it difficult to manoeuvre on the boat with such limited space for them and their bag

Shut up: Lucy couldn't hold back her enjoyment during the boat ride and was happy to be spending some time alone with her man

However, they looked uneasy as they tried to get comfortable on the all-white sea vessel and space on the tiny boat was limited, especially with their big designer bag.

The troubled start to the journey didn't last long, and soon enough Lucy was laughing as she and Mario enjoyed some quality time alone - with the camera crew.

While going to Marbs used to be just about tanning and hitting the town, Lucy is one of a number of the TOWIE cast with an agenda to push, and she certainly got her point across nicely.

Earlier this week, Lucy and Mario flirted - somewhat unnaturally - around their deluxe pool at their luxury villa as she modelled a bikini from her Bella Bamba swimwear line.

The couple played up the PDA for the cameras as Lucy wore a glitzy white number, with Mario wearing apple green swim shorts.

Lucy is the latest reality star to use the ITV2 series to plug her own products.The line of costumes and bikinis will be sold in her Brentwood based store Lucy's Boutique.

So in love: the TOWIE twosome soak up the rays and can't get enough of each other!

The pair are in Marbella to film a one-off TOWIE special in which up to 20 members of the ITV2 reality show's cast are heading to the sunny destination to film the antics.

It seems the grueling schedule has tired out some members of team TOWIE as earlier today Mario tweeted: 'Chilling in the villa with @lucy_meck... We are both sleepy! Bed time! Night guys x'.

Meanwhile Marbs had better watch out as James 'Arg' Argent, 24, wrote on Twitter as he jetted out: 'Up early this morning n on the way 2 the airport, Its a hype ting! MARBELLA MARBELLA Were gona party hard! Vegas to Marbella #LivingTheDream'
