Chris Barton, 19
A student from Ormskirk, Lancashire
Chris lives in his childhood home in Ormskirk, Lancashire and is currently studying for a National Diploma in Musical Theatre at Liverpool Theatre College.
He started singing when he was just four years old, has made ends meet by working in a sunbed shop – which he claims was the worst job he has ever had – and says that he would be a "fresh and vibrant" Joseph.
Chris first auditioned in Manchester and sums up his journey as "mind-blowing – three weeks ago I was in college doing my own thing and now I'm at the BBC doing this huge programme."

A clothes shop sales assistant, originally from Nottingham, now living in Notting Hill, London
Clothes shop sales assistant Chris grew up in Nottingham and moved to London at the age of 13 when he was awarded a place at the prestigious Silvia Young Theatre School.
He claims that he would be a "contemporary and soulful Joseph" who would bring "intrigue" to the part.
