You're not Joseph! Johndeep More's dream is over as the second voted out of Any Dream Will Do
|
The public have decided that Johndeep More should become the second Joseph to be voted out by viewers in tonight's Any Dream Will Do on 91Èȱ¬ One.
Ìý
The 11 remaining Joseph finalists performed pop, rock and musical theatre songs specifically chosen to show viewers that they have the range, power and charisma to win one of the most prestigious and sought after roles in the West End. Ìý
After performing their songs and receiving feedback from Andrew Lloyd Webber and the expert panel of Denise Van Outen, John Barrowman, Bill Kenwright and Zoe Tyler, the Josephs faced a nervous wait for viewers to cast their votes.

When asked by host Graham Norton who wasn't Joseph, Zoe Tyler and Denise Van Outen said Ben Ellis, while Bill Kenwright and John Barrowman said Johndeep More.
Ìý
Chris Barton gained the least votes, and had to sing for survival with a joint rendition of The Beatles' classic Let It Be against Johndeep More.
Ìý
Then it was up to the Andrew Lloyd Webber alone to choose which Joseph should be saved for another week.
Ìý
Andrew Lloyd Webber said: "This is not the right result tonight. This puts me in a very difficult position because both of you really should be with us. I suppose I've got to think who in the end is most likely to play Joseph. So in the end, I'll save Chris."
Ìý
Chris Barton will sing again next week, while Johndeep More was left to say goodbye. Before leaving the stage he joined the other Josephs in a rendition of Close Every Door from Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, before taking his final bow.
Ìý
Johndeep More said after the show: "It's been a rollercoaster ride, but the experience I've had has boosted my confidence in my ability to perform, and made me even more determined to make it."
Ìý
Safe for another week were Keith Jack, Rob McVeigh, Daniel Boys, Seamus Cullen, Antony Hansen, Chris Barton, Lewis Bradley, Lee Mead, Craig Chalmers and Ben Ellis.
Ìý
The group song was Pinball Wizard from the musical Tommy.

It was also announced that there would be a double eviction next week.
