As third child in a broken family of four, Danny Blue easily lost concentration on his school work and used the schoolrooms to get laughs. Of course, that was a problem with the teachers, so he just spent a lot of time roaming around Tooting in South London. Some afternoons found him fishing in the ponds of Tooting Bec and Wandsworth Commons, running gags through his mind whilst casting his maggots to the Roach and Perch.
At the age of fourteen, when not roaming the streets He would like to watch "Sunday Night at The London Palladium" starring Bruce Forsythe and The Tiller Girls, and dreamed that one day he would get on the show . On February 24th 1991, a Sunday night, Danny appeared at The London Palladium introduced by John Inman, telling the audience the little story of Danny's dream. Since then Danny has appeared in EASTENDERS, TAGGART, THE DES O'CONNOR SHOW, BBC's cop Drama "BACKUP" Kevin Whately's BROKERS MAN and more famously his appearances over 15 years in Jim Davidson's "Sinderella"

Constantly touring the U.K, He s creating mayhem wherever He performs. No one is immune from his verbal 'Digging Out'. Throughout Danny's career, he has been featured in many television programs and documentaries not only in the U.K, but Australia, Scandinavia, and most of Europe. In 1995, Danny was asked to play a comedian in the Greek Blockbuster movie -"The Love Path" for Olympic Films. An outrageous comedian, British politician (The Monster Raving Loony Party) with a flair for magic and an entrepreneurial who excels at media relations . Danny has been banned from Chicago, denounced by British parliament, and threatened with his life in Australia all while raising money for charity and becoming the focus of hundreds of newspaper articles and dozens of radio and TV interviews with his outrageous sport of "Dwarf-throwing contest's during the nineteen-eighties. Danny Blue strolls up to the microphone with the casualness of walking into his house. He nods his head to acknowledge the crowd and he utters, "You Gotta ain't ya".

"I am a green comedian, environmentally friendly, I recycle ever other buggers gag's ... but only better", he tells the crowd in understated fashion. “If you are easily offended, I suggest you leave right now because it ain't going to be your night” The audience laughs and responds immediately. Within seconds of his arrival on stage, he has captured the crowd and settled them into an atmosphere of comfortableness. ..Blue has set the tone. For the rest of his spot, Danny rattles off joke after joke, one liner after one liner for his attentive audience. Moving from subject to subject, race to race his coolness belies the tangential state of topics….. Sex, Race, Gender, The wife, the mother-in-law, police and just about every subject is covered that would offend the politically correct of this planet. After leaving school, Danny served at HMS Excellent , Whale Island, Portsmouth, Beales the Butchers and a Unigate milkman, played drum's in various bands where he earned sod all.

He then proceeded to utilize that education by pursuing a career in stand-up comedy. Danny learnt his trade by fronting his world infamous act “The Oddballs” well known for appearing totally naked apart from a couple of balloons and the odd sock. The hardest thing was seperating himself from the security blanket of The Oddballs, having an act behind him that he could call on if it got tough out there. Danny's first time on stage as a comedian was to a packed house at a comedy club in Surrey, and he destroyed the room. Since that night, he hasn't looked back. His stand-up has been described as a blend of politically incorrect over-the-top silliness and wit, and he is known to be an ultra-friendly comic who has fun and takes the p*@# out of the audience as well as a sharp one liner.
