After complaining about his bed (which, remember, is one of the comfier ones in camp) and his lack of sleep, Tom headed down to the creek for a wash.

The star was accompanied by Vogue and Ruby Wax – and Tom felt like it was the perfect time to recite a sonnet to American star Ruby.

“Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?” he said, wooing Ruby as they sat by the creek. Meanwhile, Vogue just stood there, awkwardly watching.

Tom tapdances and wooes Ruby

Speaking in the Bush Telegraph later, Ruby was seemingly baffled by Tom.

“I don’t know what land he comes from,” the comedian joked.

Later, as he had a wash in the creek, Tom sang, so loudly in fact that his fellow celebs could hear him from camp.

Turning on the charm later in the hope of impressing the camp leaders, Lisa Riley attempted to woo Tom, praising his posture, likening him to former Strictly star Darcey Bussell.

In response, Tom decided to treat his campmates to some tap dancing, much to their delight.
