The Dating Doctor in the Media

I’m widely recognised as an expert on flirting, dating, seduction and body language. I speak regularly at events and have been featured in the press since 2004. I have also appeared on national television and done phone-ins, studio discussions and interviews on national & local BBC radio stations as well as numerous commercial ones. Below I have listed most of the broadcast programmes and print media in which I have appeared over the last few years.

I love live broadcasting, phone-ins and studio debates. My interviews are always challenging, spontaneous and thought provoking - but never boring! Contact me on 07973 266435 or peter@spalton.co.uk
