Oh dear, yet another person with Busy Lizzie problems! I am sorry to tell you that it seems to be the bad weather that is causing it. Unless the sun comes out for a good long time, no, there's no cure. You are NOT alone!

Yes spritzhenry is right. Here just north of Hull our impatiens have been the same. Wet and damp not enough sun. Ours are very leggy aswell, like backend now here.
