Although the show may be called The Only Way Is Essex, its stars have descended on the beautiful island of Tenerife to film scenes for the upcoming series.

And, despite the fact the weather was perhaps less sunnier than they’d have hoped for, the reality TV favourites still found the time to undress to their summer smalls for filming.

Ferne McCann led the way with her lovely ensemble, showing off her enviable toned pins in a pair of denim hotpants on Tuesday.

Hot… pants! Ferne McCann looked a delight in her short denim bottoms as she stepped out for filming of the new series of The Only Way Is Essex on Tuesday

The 24-year-old looked a treat in her miniature shorts, teamed with a classic navy blue and white striped long sleeved t-shirt, casually tucked into the waistband.

The stylish TV personality wore a pair of flip-flips – something she was no doubt keen to do after enduring a frosty British winter – and finished off her slick look with a Chanel handbag and a delicate gold necklace.

With her long brown and blonde tresses piled high up on her head in a chic bun, and with her sunglasses and red lipstick firmly in place, she looked the epitome of Riviera chic, despite being on one of the Canary Islands.

However, despite her aesthetically-pleasing appearance, Ferne looked a bit glum as she got set for filming for the day.

Stylish lady: The 24-year-old looked the epitome of Riviera chic in her striped navy and white top, sunglasses and striking red lip

They’re here! Ferne was joined by Billie Faiers and her mum, baby Nelly and Vas Morgan

Time to get started: The cast-members looked fresh ahead of their day of filming

This could be down to the fact she’s missing her boyfriend Charlie Sims: on Monday evening, shortly after the group had landed on the island, she tweeted that she was longing for him.

‘First night in tenerife with the girls and missing this one already…’ she posted on her Twitter page, along with a snap of her handsome man.

Also on the island were her co-stars Gemma Collins, Lydia Bright, Bobby Norris, Jessica Wright, Chloe Sims, Lauren Pope, Danielle Armstrong, Vas Morgan and new mum Billie Faiers, who brought her daughter Nelly along for the getaway.

They were filming the opening special extra-long episode of the brand new series, which will air later in February.

And although the episode is set to be a ‘girl’s holiday’, there will be scenes set in Essex so viewers will get a chance to see their favourite male stars… aside from Bobby and Vas in Tenerife, who tagged along on the girly trip.

Beach ready: Despite the cool temperature on the island, Lydia Bright lived up to her second name, donning a vibrant orange and floral swimsuit with a plunging neckline

Enviable figure: The 25-year-old looked stunning as she revealed her legs while soaking up the… overcast day on a sun-lounger

Chilling: Lydia chatted with Lauren Pope, who reclined beside her in a blue one-piece swimsuit

Billie, 25, looked sweet in a multicoloured zig-zag striped kaftan as she pushed her little girl Nelly along in her pram while her mother had also joined the group.

Lydia, 25, didn’t waste time in getting into her swimwear for the day, and getting down to some serious sunbathing business.

The fashion-conscious star revealed her slim and shapely frame in a bright orange one-piece swimsuit, decorated with funky cartoon flowers.

The swimming costume included a rather racy and sunbathing-friendly plunging neckline, with a thin strap across her chest to keep her cleavage in place.

She looked effortlessly gorgeous and glamorous as she posed on her sun-lounger next to the pool at their hotel, her dark blonde locks pushed back off her face by her large sunglasses.

Feeling the chill? It may be one of the Canary Islands, but the weather wasn’t quite as warm as Lydia and Jessica Wright may have hoped for

Chatting: Jessica joined Lydia, Gemma Collins and Bobby Norris for a pool-side discussion

Confused: Gemma couldn’t hide a look of confusion on her face before they began shooting

That’s a brave look! Bobby appeared nude as he sat on his chair, but he was actually wearing his infamous thong, covering just his manhood

Who’s that? The group appeared distracted by another fellow at the pool

Bottom’s up! Gemma sipped on a lovely looking cocktail as they filmed

Careful! The bubbly blonde couldn’t help but get distracted by her co-star’s outrageous choice of ‘outfit’

Floral delight: Showing off her new two stone weight loss, Gemma looked content as she stepped out for filming in a bright coordinated ensemble

Not feeling the cold? Brave Bobby wore the least of all of the TOWIE co-stars

And she didn’t cover up when she sat down at a table to have a chat with her colleagues and friends Gemma Collins, Jessica Wright and Bobby Norris, choosing to stay in her striking little item, despite the rather overcast day and relatively mild 17°C temperature.

Bubbly blonde Gemma cut an eye-catching figure as she made her way down for filming, wearing a matching floral top and bottoms, complete with tiny pom-poms down the side of the t-shirt.

The pink, blue, orange and white co-ordinated ensemble highlighted her newly-slimline figure: she recently lost two stone in weight, and it shows.

Bombshell: Chloe Sims stepped out at their hotel in a sheer blue cover-up, complete with oversized tasselled bag in a matching shade

Hidden gem: Her white bikini was just visible under the transparent fabric of her cover-up, a strappy number with shoulder detailing

When one glass isn’t enough…: Clearly feeling the holiday vibe, Chloe sipped on two glasses of wine

Letting their hair down: Lauren Pope and Danielle Armstrong may have been working, but they appeared completely relaxed

Striking look: Danielle Armstrong wore a long button-down sheer shirt, undone to the waist, to show off her ample bikini-clad cleavage

Beach babe: The 26-year-old was ready for her brief getaway, which is set to last five days

Ever the glamorous maven, the 34-year-old opted for towering red wedge sandals, a pink patterned beach bag and oversized dazzling earrings.

She kept her famous blonde locks loose and wavy, looking pretty thanks to her obvious good mood.

It was no doubt an exciting day of filming for the cast of TOWIE, which ended towards the end of 2014 with the special Christmas episode, The Only Way Is Essexmas.

The Essex-based bunch had embarked on a slightly less glamorous getaway for the one-off show, getting on a ship from Dover to Calais for a booze cruise to stock up on alcohol for the Christmas party.

Elsewhere on the island…: Chloe joined Lauren and Danielle for a glamorous-looking discussion

Leggy ladies: Each of the three stunning stars got their legs out for the cameras

Old glamour: Chloe was attired in a perfect powder blue and lemon yellow kaftan with a matching headband

All black everything: Danielle went for simple chic in a long flowing sheer black shirt-style cover-up

Girly chat: The three stars looked deep in friendly conversation, but there is sure to be at least one flare-up between them while spending time on the volcanic isle

So it’s no wonder the stunning cast members all looked to be in a collective good mood as they set to work in front of the cameras for the upcoming series.

Jessica Wright looked a treat in her lingerie-inspired navy swimsuit which, like Lydia’s, also included a plunging neckline.

But she covered her shoulders in a sheer tan-coloured kaftan-style garment as she chatted to her TOWIE friends.

Wine time! Danielle carried a glass of wine as she prepared for filming

Brr! Thanks to the slightly cooler climate of Tenerife in February, Chloe had no choice but to cover her bikini-clad body in a cosy hoodie

Still glamorous: Despite her chunky and unexpected cover-up, the beauty still managed to look elegant

And, while it appeared the bold and brave Bobby Norris was sat down at their table completely stark naked, he was in fact wearing a version of his famous beach ‘outfit’, which comprises of a sock-style garment worn over his nether region.

Elsewhere on location, Lauren Pope caught up with her co-stars Chloe Sims and Danielle Armstrong to film their own scene.

Chloe went for all-out retro glamour with her elegant powder blue and lemon yellow draped cover-up.

The 32-year-old teamed the beautiful, flowing item with a matching headband, invoking an old Hollywood-era vibe.

Underneath she wore a simple white bikini, but was seen covering up in-between takes for the show in a large cosy hoodie during a particularly windy moment.

Catching some rays: A brief moment of sunshine no doubt cheered up the TOWIE stars as they mooched around the hotel’s delightful pool area

Lauren, 32, meanwhile went for a blue swimsuit – seen when she took a brief sunbathing spell next to Lydia – but had covered up in what appeared to be a long white shirt for her scene with Chloe and Danielle, during which they all sipped on white wine.

And blonde beauty Danielle, 26, decided to go for all-black for her poolside jaunt, revealing her tanned limbs under her sheer, long garment as she reclined on a sunlounger.

The cast had arrived in Tenerife on Monday from the UK, all of them looking ready for action ahead of filming for the 14th series of the hit ITVBe reality show.

While all appeared to be going rather peacefully between the co-stars on Tuesday, there’ll no doubt be some tempers flaring and some fights under the sun’s rays, as is to be expected on the popular programme.

As they got set to land at the local airport the day before, Gemma took to Twitter to let her fans know they’d arrived.

She tweeted: ‘On the plane woo hoo tenerife baby here we come #TOWIE #EssexComesToTenerife.’

The new series will be broadcast soon on reality channel ITVBe.
