X Factor Christopher Maloney next Narrator in Blood Brothers?

Christopher Maloney was one of the finalists in the last series of X Factor and has also been touring with the show.

He is currently talking to Bill Kenwright about taking over the role of the Narrator (recently vacated by Marti Pellow) in his tour of Willy Russell's hit musical Blood Brothers.

Kirkdale born Maloney said  said: “I’m going back to London to meet him to do one-to-one script work. But it’s looking good. I love the musical. I remember bringing a friend to see it for his 21st birthday when it was in Liverpool at the Empire.The music is fantastic and the songs are unbelievable, but I love the story too.”

Maloney was a controversial finalist in X Factor with a lot of viewers saying he didn't deserve to be on the show but he managed to survive and reached third place before he was voted off.
