The teenager from Cornwall triumphed over fellow finalists Jimmy Balito (also coached by Murs), Deana Walmsley and Bethzienna Williams (both mentored by Tom Jones). She bags herself a recording contract with Polydor Records and the release of her debut single – a cover of Lady Gaga's A Star Is Born tune I'll Never Love Again.

Murs took to the stage during the final, joining Hocking for a rendition of Simply Red's Stars...

Let's hope someone gave that chair a clean after he hopped off.
