Chris Clark's antics on TOWIE aren't going down well
Tonight's (April 23) edition of The Only Way is Essex featured a big Sixties-themed party – with the usual side order of drama and accusations filling up the action.

Much of the goings-on focused on Chris Clark sending his ex Amber Dowding flowers after her hospital stay, which she went through after a "mystery illness".
Some viewers were delighted that Chris and Amber look like they could be on their way to reuniting:
Aww @ChrisJClark_ & @amberdowdingx 😍😍 cute couple 👍🏻 #TOWIE @OnlyWayIsEssex

But others were pretty annoyed at the whole situation – after all, it's not been long since Chris broke up with Little Mix star Jesy Nelson.
There are some strong opinions out there – as always – with lots of you thinking Chris simply used his relationship with Jesy for publicity:
So Chris did use Jesy as a PR stunt, things you do to stay relevant #TOWIE

Chris fancies a new story line then.. #TOWIE

Soo Chris was using Jessy then.. well not being funny I like amber but Jessy is the real winner not being with Chris #TOWIE

Personally I think Jesy had a lucky escape there... The Clarke brothers have no idea how to treat a woman #TOWIE

Using jesy then dumping her when it suits him. Hope Amber kicks you to the curb again Chris! #TOWIE

While others are just a bit sick of seeing those Visa adverts during the show:
Note: we don't need adverts on towie to encourage us to use #contactless 😒 #visa #towie @officialTOWIE #pointlesssponsorship

The product placement in #TOWIE is hilarious

And the '60s party wasn't that popular with some – with the theme being called into question over whether it was very accurate.
Some of the TOWIE regulars didn't seem too sure of what went on in the decade, and people were quick to pick up on it:
That is the worst 60's party I have ever seen. #TOWIE

Erm why they chatting about Grease & James Dean...wasn't James Dean the 50s? 🤔@ITVBe #towie

Debs i bet you can barely remember the 60s - you were 9 years old when they finished. #towie
