He is possibly best known for playing the role of Bobby in the television series Scot Squad. Life and careerConnell grew up in Springburn in Glasgow. He started performing stand up gigs whilst juggling a full-time job at a supermarket until fellow comedian Kevin Bridges convinced him to quit and do comedy full time.[1] Since then, Connell has gone on to host many solo shows across the UK including an appearance at the 2016 Edinburgh Fringe Festival.[2] Writing about his show No Filter, Jay Richardson of Chortle wrote:{{quote|"His off-stage naivety, which he channels into Bobby, makes Connell extremely likeable, as does his easy rapport with his audience and chunky, rather sadsack quality, extending him the credit for an occasional, more calculated, dark gag. Even if there aren't enough stories in this show yet, you trust in his accident-prone nature to deliver them soon."[3]}} In 2019, his show, Abandon All Hope played to a sell out audience at the 2019 edition of the Glasgow Comedy Festival.[4] Despite having very little acting experience, Connell was cast as Bobby in the BBC Scotland mockumentary series Scot Squad. The role earned him a best actor nomination at the 2015 British Academy Scotland New Talent Awards.[5] As of early 2019, he hosted the podcast The Darren Connell Show on Glasgow Live, which has featured guest appearances from Grado, Loki and Greg Hemphill.[6] FilmographyTelevision
