Joe entered The X Factor in 2007 and reached Bootcamp but decided to leave the competition as he felt he was too young and wanted more experience (hence entering lots of local competitions). Since then he feels he made the right decision and is very happy to be back on The X Factor in 2009.

Danyl lives with his best friend just outside Reading and is a dance teacher at a boys prep school. He went to musical theatre school but didn’t like it as he felt he was more of a free spirit and being there was like being in a bubble.
