A bad day for Darren

Darren Day's been banned from driving for 18 months.

It's after the actor and TV presenter admitted being drunk behind the wheel.

Darren was almost twice the drink-drive limit when he was pulled over by police in Cardiff in June.

He was meant to stand trial at city's Magistrates' Court today after denying the charge at a previous hearing.

But he arrived at court this morning without a lawyer, and changed his plea.

He was also fined £700.
