The 31-year-old star scooped no less than six of the accolades at the British Soap Awards and Inside Soap Awards from 2011 to 2015, when he portrayed Mark 'Dodger' Savage in 'Hollyoaks', and he is feeling more and more satisfied by the gongs.

He said: "There's myths and legends [about how many] and I lose track now. I think it was three or four?

"I am proud. I'm becoming more proud of it the older I get.

"One to show the grandkids."

But Danny admitted he and his wife, former 'Hollyoaks' co-star Carley Stenson - who portrayed Steph Cunningham on the Channel 4 soap - "haven't got time" for children just yet.

When asked if he has plans for kids, he said: "Not yet, we haven't got time. We don't see each other."

Danny is currently starring in 'Amélie the Musical' and Carley is in 'Les Miserables', and the happy couple only recently managed to fit in their honeymoon to Bali - 18 months after they tied the knot.

He said: "We were working, we were so busy.

"It was totally worth the wait, and it was quite nice to elongate that special time as well.

"If it was all done within a fortnight we'd be gutted. It would've been two years behind us, but we've managed to keep it going."

Speaking on 'Lorraine', Danny added: "We had to take a few days out of rehearsals just to get married."
