Most years This Morning offers a dream gig to a popular I’m a Celeb contestant shortly after the final.

Previously it has been I’m a Celeb champ Sam Thompson, and contestants Ferne McCann and Vicky Patterson have also been snapped up for jobs on the show.

AngryGinge won I’m a Celeb on Sunday night and is expected to be inundated with lucrative TV offers.

But Tom has become the first out of the three I’m a Celeb finalists to nab a top TV role, and was asked to help members of the public on This Morning today with their dilemmas in the lead up to Christmas.

The opportunity arose after he was interviewed by This Morning hosts Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard about his incredible jungle stint.

Ben told him: “One of the things I’ve loved as well Tom, is in the camp, you certainly became a sort of a go-to Agony Uncle for quite a lot of your campmates.”

Tom replied: “Well, I think Shona taught me hugely … be vulnerable, because we all are so vulnerable anywhere here.

“And particularly where Shona was concerned, I think we sort of followed one another’s spiky graph.”

Speaking about his job welcoming the celebrities into the Celebs Go Dating agency, he added: “It is I suppose, sort of my role too.

“I try to be a shoulder and a bosom if I can.

“And so it was nice to occupy that space in the jungle.”

Later on in the show, one viewer named Dario asked Tom: “Should I tell my colleague I fancy her at the office Christmas party?”

Tom advised Dario to “sew the seeds before” with his colleague, so that she believed him rather than blurting it out after a few drinks.

Tom said: “Imagine what a delicious evening it could be.

“If you sew the seeds before, than it can be the most sumptuous evening.

“You don’t want it to be an in vino veritas (in wine there is truth) affair.

“But you’re safer (at the office party) than you imagine you would you be. Everyone is in clusters.”

Ben and Cat were impressed with his advice, and Cat asked Tom at the end of the segment: “Would you come back and do this again?”

Tom beamed and replied: “I would absolutely love to.”

SHOCK RESULT

Tom was an unfamiliar face to many I’m A Celeb viewers when he joined the jungle show.

And he stunned viewers at first with his “posh lingo” but soon won them over with his kind and gentle nature.

The Celebs Go Dating star, 39, came second to YouTuber AngryGinge, 24, during Sunday’s episode, despite entering the ITV camp as a late arrival.

EastEnders star Shona McGarty came in third plcae.

The Celebs Go Dating star previously said he owes his love of literature and etymology to his teacher father, crediting him with helping foster his impressive vocabulary.
