John-Jules is best known for playing the Cat and that character's alter ego Duane Dibbley in the British comedy series Red Dwarf. He originally obtained the part of the Cat by turning up half an hour late for his audition, dressed in his father's old zoot suit. Jules was unaware that he was late and hence did not appear at all concerned with his tardiness. The producers immediately decided he was cool enough to be "The Cat". Craig Charles said of Danny at a Red Dwarf convention of being a lot like the cat as he had a lot of clothes. He said "If Danny changed his clothes every 10 seconds for the next 10 years he still wouldnt run out of clothes" .
