Will Kirk has a very loyal following and it seems he has a great relationship with his fans.

After The Repair Shop favourite shared a photo of himself wearing an eye-catching jacket while partying at a friend's festival this weekend, many couldn't help suggesting he should be on the West End stage!

The woodwork craftsman could be seen in the multi-coloured jacket and some face glitter as he wrote in the caption: "Didn't go to a festival this year, but enjoyed this one in my friends garden instead," which prompted his followers to compare him to Joseph from Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat.

One person quipped in the comments: "Never knew you would be staring in Joseph in the West End!? Looks like you had fun!!" A second wrote: "Aren't you on at The London Palladium at the minute!?!" while a third simply put: "Love the jacket, Joseph."

Meanwhile, Will joined in on the fun and responded to a fan's comment which featured the lyrics: "I close my eyes, draw back the curtain," with a string of laughing-face emojis.

The TV presenter has also been enjoying some down-time away from his recent stints on The Repair Shop, Morning Live and Celebrity Masterchef with his new wife, Polly, following their nuptials last month.
