Ashley Taylor Dawson

Best known for his role as Darren Osborne in British soap Hollyoaks, Ashley Taylor Dawson is pretty much a household name throughout the UK.

He has played Darren Osborne since 1999, taking a break from the role in order to join pop band Allstars, and appear in the accompanying TV show Star Street, between 2001 and 2002. Returning to Hollyoaks in 2003 he has remained there ever since, where his character has become one of those love-to-hate types among many of the loyal viewers, although in his softer moments many do find a diamond in the rough.

Although he has left his pop career behind him, Ashley is still a keen musician, both as a vocalist, guitarist and DJ.
