ESSEX star Denise Van Outen teamed up with her Big Breakfast co-star Johnny Vaughan as they were spotted filming in Mersea. 

The pair were seen filming on location in Mersea Island this weekend before enjoying a stop off at one of the island's famous beach huts.

The Big Breakfast was a light breakfast entertainment television programme and game show that was broadcast on Channel 4 from 1992 to 2002 with both Denise and Johnny presenting from 1997 to 2001.

The programme was well known for being broadcast live from a real house, which was a lock-keepers cottage, and for being more informal and youth-focused compared to other morning Breakfast shows.

The pair’s first reunion took place in June 2023 as they stood- in for Steph McGovern for Channel 4’s ‘Packed Lunch’.

Last month, the pair was back filming together on Celebrity Gogglebox.

While this Saturday, posting on Instagram, Denise, tagged Johnny Vaughan and further posted pictures of Mersea including the beach huts and of the pair walking on the beach.

Denise is a regular visitor to the island enjoying the holiday park, beach and beach huts. 

In her posts over the weekend Denise made reference to the island's Fen Farm and praised Epping's Funky Monk restaurant. 

This year Denise, who was born in Basildon, released a new dance single called Discoliscious.

While Johnny Vaughan currently presents the Radio X drivetime show and The Kickabout each week.
