Gilly seems to have taken Tim Phillips' "dark" quote and spun it into something totally different to what he meant. Here's part of an interview dated 20th March 2015 (so bear in mind this was six months ago):

Daniel is a really nice guy, but would you like to explore a darker side to him?
Yes I would and for the last few episodes I have filmed, we have been exploring a much darker side to him. This is very advanced for the UK but we are doing stuff at the moment where we find out that Daniel has a bullying past. This is really cool and it explains why he is so good now. He just decided one day that he doesn't want to be this guy because he saw how it was affecting people, so he became ultra good.

The plan from my point of view is to try and meet somewhere in the middle and not always be so good and maybe have a bit of Paul Robinson in him. If it works, they said they would write more stuff for me like that, so we shall see.

Meagan82 is right that Tim was talking about when Daniel hit Josh.

The bit I've underlined is interesting. Tim would like Daniel to be a bit more like Paul Robinson at times, so we could potentially see him become less idealistic and happy, and more cynical and manipulative. I'm quite sure he wasn't thinking of Daniel beating up Imogen though lol. Even Paul's never gone that far...
