The ambassadors have the magnetic eyes of the comedian Russell Brand and Dannii Minogue, the singer, the low-set eyebrows of the presenters Steve Jones and Georgie Thompson with the winning smiles of Vernon Kay and Kirsty Gallacher. The rounded features of Eamonn Holmes, the presenter, and the singer Charlotte Church are used to encompass the sloped-back foreheads of the newsreader Alastair Stewart and the singer Myleene Klass, the square jaws of the BBC’s George Alagiah and ITV’s Romilly Weeks and the rounded noses of the chef Gordon Ramsay and the presenter Claudia Winkleman. Naomi Tickle, the face reader and personologist that the tourist board used in its quest for the friendliest face, said: “A warm smile really does make a person feel welcome.

“However, some of it is down to your genes and certain facial characteristics can make you appear more friendly.” Personology was developed in the 1930s by Edward Jones, a Los Angeles circuit judge, who began predicting a person’s behaviour by observing facial and other physical features. advertisement Miss Tickle says that learning to recognise key facial traits can help us improve communication with the people we meet.

They are also very aware of costs. How much it costs. ‘Is it worth it? Can I get it for less?’ Those are Roman nose-shaped questions.
