Former The Only Way Is Essex star Mark Wright transforms into a drag queen on his new ITV2 show tomorrow night (February 22).

Six-part series Party Wright Around The World finds the 27-year-old Essex lad travelling the globe “in search of new surroundings and social groups” – before helping the people he meets throw “the party of a lifetime”.

In episode one, he explores Miami’s gay scene as he helps Alex and Miguel plan a bash for their friend Joanna.

When Mark finds out that Joanna is a fan of a man in drag, he gamely slaps on some make-up, slips into a red sequinned dress and pops up a bouffant scarlet wig.
