After taking his date for a curry, the pair leave the restaurant and that's when things get totes awks.

Arg pushes the door open for Yasmin and they both share a nervous laugh, fully aware the camera is right in front of them.

Arg doesn't know where to look and when Yasmin asks if he had had a nice time, he rubs his hand along the side of his head and replies: "Yeah I did".

"I actually, erm, yeah really enjoyed myself".

As the pair stand awkwardly making small talk, voiceover man - comedian Rob Beckett - urges Arg to seal the deal.

As if he can hear him, Arg then says: "So are you up for a second date?"

Yasmin replies: "Yeah I am".

As they inch closer, Arg adds: "OK well, goodnight" and then they lean in for a kiss which turns into a full on snog.

As Rob comments on the tonsil tennis, Arg cringily declares at the end of it: "Nice".

The camera then cuts to a grinning Towie star who declared: "Arg is back baby! I've still got it!"

The star, who recently returned from a 10-week stint in Thai rehab, recently discussed how he got on in the dating show during an appearance on This Morning.

He said: “I was fortunate enough to meet lots of lovely ladies.”

But he revealed that there was one thing that kept holding him back: “They were concerned I was eating too much, too quickly.

"My dates actually went pretty well – but a lot of my feedback was ‘he’s hungry’.

“The truth of the matter is I am still eating a lot but eating the right things.”

The star continued:  “Even if they don’t fancy me. I want them to say I was a nice guy.”
