A Gift of the Gab

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

Three programmes written and presented by Ludovic Kennedy.
2: Passion and Emotion What is the secret of the rousing speech that appeals not so much to reason but to passion and emotion? How does a speaker sway huge audiences? Is it just a magnetic personality? Or are there other skills?
Ludovic Kennedy analyses the speeches of J.F. Kennedy, Churchill, Hitler, Billy Graham and Martin Luther King in search of the elusive qualities.
