It\u2019s hard to forget the good ol\u2019 days on The Only Way Is Essex when then-club promoter Mark Wright was getting up to his shenanigans with the ladies, and beautician Amy Childs was trying out her newest treatment, aka Vajazzles, on her pal Sam Faiers, as her cousin Harry Derbridge watched on in stitches of laughter.<\/p>\n

Now in season 30, a lot has happened on the ITVBe show, and we\u2019ve seen many cast members leave and new ones join.<\/p>\n

But, that hasn\u2019t stopped the original cast from reminiscing about the old days.<\/p>\n

Speaking exclusively to RadioTimes.com<\/a>\u00a0ahead of the new season, Harry revealed who he\u2019d like to see make a comeback on the show, and it\u2019s none other than the GC herself, Gemma Collins, and original TOWIE playboy, Mark.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s got to be the GC,\u201d he said. \u201cObviously Gemma\u2019s a really good friend of mine, I spend a lot of time with Gemma, and I think one day she might make a return. You never know.\u201d<\/p>\n

Asked whether we\u2019ll be seeing any OGs on season 30, he added: \u201cNo one has returned for the 30th season apart from the confirmed cast who went to the Dominican Republic. So unfortunately, no returns of Mark Wright just yet!<\/p>\n

\u201cI would love for TOWIE to do just one episode where they put the people from Day One back on it. We done the 10-year reunion and not everyone did it. There was Sam and Billie [Faiers], Jess and Carol [Wright], and Lydia [Bright], so there were a few. Maybe we\u2019ll have a 20-year anniversary.\u201d<\/p>

On the future of the show and whether he\u2019s thought of leaving, Harry said: \u201cI think over the years everyone\u2019s really wanted me and Amy to get our own show, but we\u2019ve always just loved TOWIE. TOWIE for me and Amy is where it all started.<\/p>\n

\u201cWithout it, I mean I\u2019d probably be a dancer on a cruise ship and Amy would be doing massages in a salon, so we would be living normal lives. So, we always remember it and always appreciate where we came from and how it all started, which is why we both still do it today.<\/p>\n

\u201cI reckon TOWIE will go on for at least another 10 years. By then we\u2019ll all be old. I\u2019ll be about 40, so I don\u2019t think I\u2019ll still be on it, but I reckon it will keep evolving. It could be just a like a soap that continues to go on. People will come in and people will leave.\u201d<\/p>\n
