The nightclub dream of troubled Jack Tweed and his TV pal Mark Wright was last night hanging by a thread.

The pair’s plush Essex bar will be closed for a fortnight after it was torched last weekend by thugs.

That could see them plunged into a crippling debt crisis after they ploughed their life savings into Deuces Bar & Lounge.

Jade Goody’s widower and his pal Mark, who appears in ITV2’s The Only Way Is Essex, were banking on the club making money straight away.

And they will need to find more money after insurers categorised the business “high risk” and demanded they install a state-of-the-art security system.

Meanwhile Jack and Mark, both 23, have been taunted by local gangland figures since the fire, which took place after the club’s Halloween launch. A pal said: “Nasty messages have been passed along the grapevine.

“Gangsters are sick of their swagger on telly, going around like the top boys in town.

“They have been told in no uncertain terms that the vendetta isn’t over.”

In a further blow, ITV producers have been forced to axe the Chigwell club as a filming location for the docu-soap.

A show source said: “Deuces will no longer feature in the remaining few episodes.

“Mark was gutted because the bar being on prime-time TV was invaluable to making the business a success. That’s all on the scrapheap now.”
