The one they ask for by name. Limpit? Lemsit? Er... Lembit

Telly Talk: Things are definitely looking up for Lembit Opik. Okay, so people can't get his name right, with ITV2 I'm a Celebrity presenter Joe Swash insisting on calling him Limpit, while Lemsip is favoured in other quarters.

But who cares, eh, when Playboy playmate Kayla Collins thinks you are cool? The blonde beauty was bowled over after Limnit – I mean Lembit – offered to give up his bed for her.

And he could do worse than launch his bid for friends in his corner with the curvy beauty.

The former politician has been struggling to bond with his fellow campers – if looks could kill, 'Hatchet' Havers would have him back in that crate with no means of escape – but since the girls have arrived he has found a new role. One we probably thought Havers would have nabbed for himself before he went all 'The Shining' on us.

Finally, the gentleman we all thought might be lurking somewhere inside Lem...Lem...Lembit has emerged at last, and while he can still act like a child in a grown-up body he becomes less ridiculous with the fairer sex around.

And with more people to distract the aforementioned Havers, who is becoming more unlikeable by the second, it has taken the pressure off a little for Lemmy. Sorry, Lembit.

He's having a high old time persuading Aggro to finally take a cleansing dip in the ice-cold pool, despite the fact Lembit betrayed his age by doing it in his socks. Let's hope Kayla doesn't catch sight of that particularly quirky habit. But it was a fair achievement which suggests maybe Nick Clegg will now regret not having a Liberal Democrat able to convince those troublesome students there is no gain without pain.

And last night also gave the 45-year-old a chance to have a breather as ITV1 took a break from I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here to make way for the England versus France game - and what a mistake that turned out to be.

So we'll have to wait to see how Stacey Solomon gets on tonight in her Bushtucker Trial, the Australia Job.

Now Lembit could do worse than to work his gentlemanly magic on Miss Solomon. She is a favourite for the final and actually proving to be an all-round good girl who could very well be crowned Queen of the Jungle.

She would be a welcome additon to his little gang - if he does manage to pull one together. The best advice then would be to leave newcomers Jenny Eclair to sort out Gillain and Dom Joly to tackle Nigel. That way Lembit will be sitting pretty for once. Even in his socks.
