Madeleine McCann: The McCanns’ Return To Portugal, A Year Of Looking And Ben Affleck
MADDYWATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
THE SUN: “McCanns risk arrest over visit”
KATE and Gerry McCann may risk arrest by returning to Portugal for the one-year anniversary of their daughter’s disappearance.
The couple are prepared to take the chance in a last ditch attempt to revive interest in four-year-old Maddie, missing since May 3.
Any facts?
The doctors, both 39, left the Praia da Luz resort last September – 48 hours after being made official suspects over the mystery.
Gerry and Kate McCann are Doctors. Such are the facts.
Says the McCanns’ spokesman Clarence Mitchell said: “They want to be there for the first anniversary. Going out there would send the strongest possible message that Madeleine could still be alive and the search for her should continue.”
SYDNEY MORNING HERALD: “Turning the tabloids”
Ben Affleck is Gone Baby Gone:
Almost as troublesome was the story’s unforeseen and unintended resemblance to a real-life case of child kidnapping that hit the headlines in the months it was being filmed. That was the disappearance in Portugal last year of British girl Madeleine McCann, who was of a similar age and appearance to the film’s kidnapping victim and had a name eerily similar to the character in the Lehane novel, Amanda McCready.
McCready has disappeared amid the squalor of her south Boston neighbourhood. The police are out in formation, as are the television news vans, antennas raised high, all but trembling for blood.
Madeleine McCann: That’s entertainment

Danzelle / Pilimary…. The Express feature was / is on the front page of the newspaper so no probs. Bigger story took over on the internet……..
There was nothing of any relevance in the feature anyway. Nothing new or interesting……….

The Express must be terrified about the Mccans and the poor journalist that have published that naif article must be praying not to be fired
April 6th, 2008 at 7:46 pm
My apologies if there are males around… any male in the room?
April 6th, 2008 at 7:46 pm
Pilimary
I can’t find anything wrong with it either, and neither did Anorak as M+A allowed it to remain, despite it being pulled by the website.

I read this afternoon your answer of this morning (about the Sunday info) and I have read it, thanks.
I haven’t checked, but.. why to delete that info? it does not have any strange
April 6th, 2008 at 7:42 pm
by the way, girls (Im afraid that Anorak in these moments it’s just a girls party), do you rmember that the Portuguese Tv was prepairing a chapters series about the case? In its moment, I read that they were going to use first hand information from the PJ, but we have heard nothing again… Maybe they will use the latest news from the cops when they’re back in Portugal
I mean, we all will know the details that the PJ knows, sooner or later
