Posted April 10, 200619 yr Do you have a question about Darius or something you half remember that other fans could help with? This is a thread to post those queries.
April 10, 200619 yr Author I found this picture http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v603/Maria194/DocDD.jpg It's seemingly the eldest Danesh son following in his parent's footsteps. Does anyone know if it's a genuine picture and if so what the circumstances were when it was taken? Maybe it's a mock up. Is it anyone here's handiwork? I wouldn't mind being sick if that dishy doc was doing the ward rounds every day. Edited April 10, 200619 yr by Baytree
April 10, 200619 yr Does anyone know which charity the song Incredible was used to advertise/promote? - 'cos I can't remember :P What was the name of the tv programme that Darius was on just shortly after PopStars, where that lad ran away with the demo CD and Darius caught up to him in a phonebox + has anyone got it on video?
April 11, 200619 yr Author Does anyone know which charity the song Incredible was used to advertise/promote? - 'cos I can't remember :P What was the name of the tv programme that Darius was on just shortly after PopStars, where that lad ran away with the demo CD and Darius caught up to him in a phonebox + has anyone got it on video? In Mocking Bird, the chapter of Sink or Swim about the aftermath of Popstars, Darius mentions a programme called "Nearly Popstars" which followed up some of the kids who'd made an impact on the show. I wonder if Jill might have that programme on tape. I don't remember Incredible being used - can you remember when? No answer to my query yet, peeps? I'm wondering if it was used in the trailers for the Special/Para- Olympics that were held in Scotland last year. I'm sure Darius had some involvement in those but I can't recall what.

I'm wondering if it was used in the trailers for the Special/Para- Olympics that were held in Scotland last year. I'm sure Darius had some involvement in those but I can't recall what. No it wasn't 'Nearly Popstars' I don't think ... it was more like a comedy sketch? - I can't remember though, - it was just really funny, when the lad nicked off with the CD :lol: and I want to see Darius legging it up the street again B) As for the Incredible song being used - it was shortly after it's release as a single I think - it was used by a charity advertising what they do - I saw it on TV (Granada Region) ... children, smiling faces ... just can't remember which charity now though :rolleyes: I don't think I've ever seen that photo you've posted before Maria - it looks a bit wierd to me, but it's not good quality so it might be that?
April 11, 200619 yr I'm sure I've seen the photo before.....but isn't it just his head :unsure: That's what I thought Pam - maybe he's a head-transplant surgeon? ;) ... but I don't know with it being poor quality. He looked as though he'd had a head transplant on the Dive In album cover as well, but his head and body did both look like his on there though :D
April 11, 200619 yr :o Perhaps that's it...................that's why we don't see him for months on end :unsure: :wacko:
April 12, 200619 yr Thats it ... Darius uses his head at the recording studio whilst his body is used elsewhere .... I think its a mock up picture ... the head doesnt sit well on the body they have used. I dont think I heard Incredible being used for a charity down here in our region (ITV West) i think the programme where someone nicks his CD from him was The Priory where the presenters hit on some member of the public unexpectedly (I think it was Zoe Ball and some bloke ...) and challenged them to beat the celebrity. How anyone could beat Darius at running I have no idea. Those long legs must take him so fast However, ask Madame Cholet about running after him at Haydock Park....
April 12, 200619 yr I think the pick is a mock up! There is a huge tan discrepancy between head and rest of body, which looks pasty white. Enough so it could belong to a ginger :D Just my opinion though :)
April 12, 200619 yr that picture is definately a mock up, I think I could do better myself cloning his head onto a different body,..in fact I have - for my own personal entertainment you understand! :D ;)
April 12, 200619 yr that picture is definately a mock up, I think I could do better myself cloning his head onto a different body,..in fact I have - for my own personal entertainment you understand! :D ;) :blink: the mind boggles :wacko: :D foggy memories of seeing that pic before are coming back to me now - still can't remember what it was all about though. i think the programme where someone nicks his CD from him was The Priory where the presenters hit on some member of the public unexpectedly (I think it was Zoe Ball and some bloke ...) and challenged them to beat the celebrity. Do you remember seeing it Pat? my memory of it is really sketchy, it had something to do with Darius trying to persuade someone to listen to his CD or maybe swap it for a Here'say one (I can't remember) but the bit where the lad tried to steal Darius's CD by running away with it seemed unexpected :blink: I think - that's why that part has stuck in my mind - it was funny :lol: I can remember he found him in a telephone box :P Edited April 12, 200619 yr by Secret_Song
April 14, 200619 yr Yes I did see it ... I wish I had taped it now. It was during that weird period when he was around but not around and all they could find for him to do was be the one to be poked fun at ... as in the 2001 Red Nose Day when he was put into a "boy band" He was the tallest (of course) he wore a leather outfit and when he turned round and faced the camera he got a huge round of applause. I wish I could remember who else was there. It was all done for fun which just goes to show that Darius is always ready for a laugh Now a question from me .... I cannot remember his middle names ... they are all obscure, Persian names .. there was definitely no one else in his class with the same names. Anyone remember? All I can recall is one of them began with a Z ..
April 14, 200619 yr Author Navid Zad One of Darius's American fans, Daryl , found them on a registry site for songwriters. I think they only had some of D's songs listed, maybe just the ones he co-wrote with American writers. Navid means Good News or Beloved Edited April 15, 200619 yr by Baytree

I wouldn't mind being sick if that dishy doc was doing the ward rounds every day. Guilty as charged!!! It's my mock-up!!! :blush: It was back on the original official forum (before I learned how to merge pictures properly - hence the awfulness of it!!!).... people had been discussing what Darius might have been doing if he hadn't followed a music career - so, in the event that he may have followed in his parents footsteps, I mocked up a Dr Darius pic! The "real" doctor's body is Jeremy Sheffield when he was in Casualty! There's also a fireman Darius about - Kimmee used to have it as her avatar! Edited April 15, 200619 yr by SharonB
April 15, 200619 yr I did the same Sharon, and I still don't have any decent editing software :rolleyes: but I thought I would post this anyway :) http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b252/PaulHardy/DPolice.jpg Now if D did choose to enter the police force, any suggestions as to what area he should work in?(Boo ;) )
April 15, 200619 yr Author Thank you for 'fessing up, SharonB and thanks for PC Darius, Paul. He'd look like a giant wearing a helmet. Wasn't there a picture knocking about of 'Fireman' Darius on the Saturday Show ? I'm sure I had it in a mag but I don't know if I could find that.
