How to charm anyone, according to Graham Norton's body language expert

Body language expert Judi James says Graham Norton's charm stems from specific techniques that make guests feel safe and valued, not mystery. His approach creates a relaxed, non-confrontational atmosphere that encourages A-listers to open up. James highlights Norton's methods, including reflecting guests' words to prompt more detail, subtly mirroring their body language, and using "precision pinch" gestures to invite elaboration. He also ensures equal talking time, gives fulsome greetings, and builds on answers rather than just queuing next questions. Norton's style contrasts with US hosts behind desks, feeling more like a house party than an interview. His techniques can be applied to everyday social and professional situations, from making friends to impressing bosses.
