Darragh hosts live quiz events around the country and participated in “Britain Get Singing”, a charity singing competition in aid of mental health charities which aired on ITV1 in December 2022.
Darragh is multilingual, and among his other passions are his work as a post-doctoral neuroscientist at Oxford University (where his research projects include studying the brains of insects), playing Gaelic football and watching Liverpool FC.

In late 2024, Darragh’s book “The Body: 10 Things You Should Know” was released, published by Orion Books. In the book, Darragh reveals everything about the human body in ten informative, bite-sized essays.
In November 2024 Darragh announced his first podcast series “A Normal Meets A Nerd” with Liverpool social media star Dylan Evans which immediately racked up hundreds of thousands of views and listens. In 2025 Darragh plans to write another book with a major publisher and will continue his appearances on ITV1’s The Chase.
