HOLLYOAKS actor Nick Pickard was all smiles as he switched jungle bugs for a lavish Aussie hotel following his I'm A Celebrity eviction.
The Tony Hutchinson actor, 48, was the fourth to be given the boot from the ITV series and has now arrived at the luxury Marriott accommodation in Surfers Paradise.
His I'm A Celebrity camp exit sparked "fix" rumours from stunned fans after it came down to him and This Morning presenter Josie Gibson, 38, in the bottom two.
Viewers have since accused the commercial network of showing 'bias' by 'protecting' the star who anchors their flagship daytime show.
Yet Nick - who stuck it out for 19 days in the jungle - didn't seem to have any of the drama on his mind as he flashed a huge smile.

He stepped out of a black car still donning his jungle kit before posing outside the vehicle with his partner Sarah Corrin.
She pulled on a pair of sunglasses and a pair of trendy biker boots, matched with her T-Shirt and shorts, as she cuddled up to her man.
On today's Good Morning Britain, the soap star favourite told how he was "glad to be out" of camp.
ick was chatting to entertainment anchor Richard Arnold as the pair perched by a table and two colourful cocktails.
He candidly said: "It's a great experience and very overwhelming.
"I am glad to be out.
"Half of you wishes you could make it and get to the final because you're honoured to be asked but the other half is thinking counting down the days, and if I come out now I have six days in a lovely place.
"Then I've just got to go to a party and go home."
Last night, ITV viewers saw Nick joining Marvin and Tony for Critter Mixer, where he was strapped inside a giant rotating drum with the JLS singer.
Speaking to Ant and Dec after his exit, he admitted: "That was definitely the worst one.

"It's all the bites and I'm not good in cars.
"It was terrible. I was numb by the end of it.
"It was without doubt the worse one."
Meanwhile, last night's eviction caused a stir among fans.
After they were left shocked by the result, they took to X - formerly known as Twitter in their droves as they labelled the result a 'fix'.
One viewer fumed: "Oh come on Asif Josie and Danielle are still in there and Nick is out. That is shambolic, ITV must be keeping Josie in for their own benefit."
A second stated: "Im not watching until she’s out. The amount of ITV bias giving her pretty much all the screen time is annoying & boring. The others deserve equal time to shine."
"Will Josie win with her being an ITV employee?", asked a third fan.
