Darren Tulett

Darren Tulett (born 2 June 1965) is an English journalist who became a sports anchorman, presenting mainly football on French television.

Having become relatively famous in France - originally as the face of English football - he remains almost unknown in Britain, although he has been an occasional contributor to The Guardian newspaper.

On the spur of the moment, Tulett agreed to go to France with a friend and he ended up teaching English in Paris for nearly six years.

He wanted to become a journalist, returned to England and, somehow, landed a job with Bloomberg News in London as a sports reporter.

Playing with his image as an English dandy and surfing on the popularity of Premier League football in France, Tulett was taken on full-time by Canal Plus in 2004.
