Darren Ramsay was the third place finisher in Big Brother 1 (UK).

Biography[]

Darren was a 23-year-old who lived in Catford, London. Darren has three brothers and one sister. He also has three children of his own by ex-girlfriend Tammy. His daughters are Shanice (5), Nuviea (4), and Zahnae who celebrated her birthday while he was in the House. Although they are no longer going out together, Darren and Tammy continue to live together with their children.

He was educated at Deptford Green School and Lewisham College where he achieved a BTEC in Business and Finance. His previous jobs include Meeter and Greeter at the Millennium Dome, delivery driver, a sales assistant at clothes shop GAP and a chef. His dream job however would be presenting MTV Europe or Children's television.

None of Darren's family, except Tammy, knew he applied for Big Brother and it came as a complete surprise to them.

He likes cheese and bread, working out, dancing and pets and dislikes getting up in the morning, shaving, London transport and rock music like "Smashing Pumpkins". Physical appearance is important to Darren and he has a phobia of mice and chickens.

Darren's favourite music genres are R&B, soul, pop, house/garage and reggae and his favourite songs are The Beach by All Saints, Flowers by Sweet Female Attitude, Thong Song by Cisco, Willennium by Will Smith and Always by Jon Bon Jovi.

"My friends have advised me to do this so they can laugh at me for once." Darren said of his reasons for auditioning for Big Brother. "My friends all say I'm a flirt, a ladies man and that I'm a big over-grown girl 'cause I change my hairstyles frequently and carry a backpack wherever I go."

Darren says his good traits are good listener, good cook and describes himself as an 'agony uncle'.
