The 'EastEnders' star was born in 1977 under the primal astrological sign of the fox in 1977 and he thinks that he has many characteristics which relate to the fox, such as being wise, cunning and having extraordinary intuition.

Discussing primal astrology with his daughter, former 'Love Island' contestant Dani Dyer, on their podcast 'Sorted With The Dyers', he said: "I suppose I am a bit of a fox. I like the fact that I’m a fox because they’re quite cunning. I’m quite happy with a fox.”

“I have a little bit of information about foxes, they need to work in careers where they can be social, influential and able to lose themselves in their work.

“Those born under the sign of the fox are elegant, yes, they’re charming, yes, and impossible to ignore.

“Whether you love 'em or hate 'em, foxes have a natural ability to influence others without trying.

“I think that does sum me up a little bit.

“I’ll definitely go with the fact that I need to be able to lose myself in my work. Which is great as an actor as you’re pretending to be someone else.”

Although his primal sign is the fox, Danny is called a different animal on the set of 'EastEnders'.

The 44-year-old actor - who plays Mick Carter in the BBC One soap - revealed his co-stars have nicknamed him "otter".

Danny said: "That’s my nickname in 'EastEnders'. How weird is that? They think I look like an otter. I tell you why.

“There’s a beer mat we’ve got in the Vic. We’re not allowed any branded stuff because it’s BBC and on one of these beer mats there’s this otter that looks like a ringer for me when I’ve got my whiskers.

“At first glance, I was like, ‘Am I being fat-shamed?’ Because of my chins and stuff. They get quite lumpy, otters.

"If someone gives you a nickname you can’t fight it, so I’m known as the otter now. They’re quite kind and gentle looking things."
