Darren Day (born (1968-07-17)July 17, 1968, Colchester, Essex), is an English actor, singer and television presenter, well known for his West End theatre starring roles.
His paternal grandfather was a support and warm-up act for George Formby. Day attended Sir Charles Lucas Arts College, and undertook drama classes at evenings and weekends until he was 13, when he turned his attention to snooker.
Day became a professional snooker player at 17, but found himself drawn to entertainment. When maverick snooker genius Alex Higgins failed to complete an exhibition match, Day got up and sang songs and did impressions to entertain the crowd.
Day auditioned for BBC's talent show Opportunity Knocks in 1987 and appeared on the show in 1988, introduced by host Bob Monkhouse as the new Bobby Davro.
After five years with a career that spanned being a Butlins redcoat, doing stand-up comedy, and singing with bands, Day made his breakthrough as a singer and dancer in London's West End theatre, starring in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, replacing the departing Phillip Schofield. He then developed his career as a television presenter and has presented programmes such as You Bet!, and Don't Try This at Home! He appeared in the first series of the reality television show I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!. He finished third.
