Early life

Danny King was born in Slough, Buckinghamshire (now Berkshire), the second son of Michael and Dorothy King. He lived on the Britwell Estate until 1979, when his family moved to Yateley, Hampshire. He attended Yateley School but failed to gain any qualifications before leaving at the age of 16. He stacked shelves for a short stint in the Yateley branch of Somerfield (then Gateway), before working on various building sites as a hod carrier. In 1991 he took an Access course at Farnborough College of Technology, which helped him land a place at The London College of Printing studying journalism.
