		</div><p>Winner of The Voice and former firefighter, Stevie McCrorie, will be releasing his debut album, Big World, as early as January 2016.</p>
<p>Stevie was famously entered into the BBC singing competition by his colleagues in the Kirkcaldy fire services.<br />
He won the show in April this year, with Kaiser Chiefs’ Ricky Wilson as his mentor.</p>
<p>He said winning the show was always a “stepping stone” to “becoming the artist he wants to be”.</p>
<p>Stevie added: “I didn’t want to take the easy route. I wanted to take the harder approach to prove I am a songwriter. The public want to hear something real.”</p>
<p>His first single, titled My Heart Never Lies, is now on iTunes, as an instant download with the pre-order of Big World.</p>
<p>Talking about the song he said: “My mate, who has a daughter, said he started crying to it. That’s what I want the song to do. It’s about being away from [my daughter] Bibi, however it doesn’t mention a kid, so it can relate to anybody leaving home.”</p>
<p>He will perform the single on BBC’s Children in Need in Scotland this week.</p>
<p>The next series of The Voice – featuring Ricky, Will.i.am, Paloma Faith and Boy George as the coaches in the famous red chairs – will be the last to air on the BBC after they refused to get into a “bidding war” to keep the show.</p>
<p>Mark Linsey, acting director of BBC Television, said: “The BBC is incredibly proud of The Voice, but the fifth series which starts in January will be our last.</p>
<p>“We always said we wouldn’t get into a bidding war or pay inflated prices to keep the show, and it’s testament to how the BBC has built the programme up – and established it into a mainstay of the Saturday night schedule – that another broadcaster has poached it.”</p>
<p>The BBC’s director general, Lord Hall, also appeared to confirm the show was heading to ITV.</p>
<p>He told the House of Lords Communications Committee: “I said at the time when people were saying ‘What do you think of The Voice?’ I think The Voice is a really, really good programme. I think we’ve made it, I think it’s brilliant. I’m sad it’s going, but there we are. I hope ITV, and I’m sure they will, will really sort of run with it, and keep on making it a success.”</p>
<p>ITV has refused to comment on speculation that it will be taking on the show.</p>
