Darren Stanton, from Nottingham, England, is a body language expert.[1][2] Stanton has appeared on many television programmes including This Morning[3] and The One Show[4] whilst also discussing psychology related breaking-news stories[5][6] on BBC Radio and commercial radio programmes.

Career

edit

Stanton began his career working for Nottinghamshire Constabulary as a Special Constable and then Derbyshire Constabulary as a regular response police officer.

Having always had a strong connection and interest in neuro-linguistic programming, hypnotism, body language and psychology, he began to pursue a media career in 2009. In 2011, Stanton says that he was asked by outlets such as MSN News, The Scotsman and The Independent to assess the truthfulness and body language of Rupert and James Murdoch and Rebekah Brooks during the News International phone hacking scandal. According to Stanton, his reports were circulated in the major media and were picked up as far afield as Australia and Japan, launching him into a new career and being dubbed by the Irish Mirror as "the human lie detector".[7][8]

Stanton assessed the party leaders[1] in the United Kingdom general election debates in 2015 and the candidates in the United States presidential election in 2016.[2] In 2018, Darren joined reporter Jennie Bond where he assessed the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.[citation needed]
