Madeleine McCann: No Portugal Return, Maddy TV And Paris Hilton
MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
It’s the Mirror’s “MADELEINE EXCLUSIVE”. The news is – as Anorak reported last night – that the Tapas Seven (surely the Sangria 7? –Ed) will not be returning to Portugal to take part in a reconstruction of the night Madeleine went missing.
A source says: “They were asked informally to return, then asked again in an official letter last week. After some consideration they decided not to go back. They were concerned it would not be televised, and were bemused as to why it was happening so long after Madeleine disappeared.”
And who would play Madeleine? Her? Her? What about “Look Into My Eyes”, a TV talent show search for a Madeleine fronted by Trevor McDonald and GMTV?
Remember Kelsey: “Mummy, I could play Madeleine. I look just like her’”?
THE SUN: “No re-run for Maddie cops”
What does Lorraine Kelly think? It was she who said:
How could someone put their infant child forward as a Madeleine lookalike with the idea of making money? The child obviously has to be around the same age as Madeleine.
Is a Madeleine needed? After all, she is missing…
Unless it was to specifically aid the campaign, how could they all live with themselves for making money out of the tragic disappearance of a little girl?
It makes you recoil to think a lookalike agency would have a Madeleine on their books alongside someone who looks like Jack Nicholson or Paris Hilton.
Disgusting! To think that Maddy should be with the likes of Jack the lads or Hilton makes our flesh turn cold. It’s nothing less than sick.
DAILY MAIL: “Madeleine reconstruction scrapped after ’suspicious’ McCanns refuse to return to Portugal to take part”
The Mail has the details: The McCanns are “both doctors.”
Says a Source: “They also question why it was not to be televised and why police just want the nine and not other holidaymakers and staff to take part.”
GLASGOW DAILY RECORD: Says Clarence Mitchell:
“The friends had a number of serious questions about the value of the reconstruction and what it would do to help find Madeleine. After some discussion, they have informed the Portuguese authorities they do not intend to go back.
“Gerry and Kate have not refused to go back. They were aware of their friends’ view and they are now not needed for the reconstruction. There were a number of serious questions. For instance, why did they want to hold a reconstruction more than a year after the event?
“Why was the reconstruction not to be televised? That would have generated new leads and information but if it is not televised, how on earth is that going to help find Madeleine? Why did they only want the nine people back? Why didn’t they ask all the other holidaymakers back?
“Frankly, the police and the authorities in Portugal did not answer the simple question: what will this do to help find Madeleine?”
Do the police have to televise their police work to make it valid?
Madeleine McCann TV: are you sitting comfortably?

Indeed it might be his opinion.
However in this case he may not know the reasons. Like he said, he’s not their spokes person.
—————————–
He has been spokespersonning away for almost a year; he has made claims on their behalf for almost a year and now he claims that he’s not their spokesperson?
And you claim that it was just his opinion?
Anorak is bulging with the stuff:
Says Clarence Mitchell: “All friends have consistently told the truth. They have no need to change their statements as they have nothing to hide… To suggest they are changing their story is an utter misrepresentation of their willingness to help the police”
That isn’t someone proffering an opinion; that is a statement of purported fact, with claimed authority to make the statement.
It’s no wonder Gaunty has taken to telling Clarrie that he’s an idiot…

‘No, no, no, Chenier, you only think that you actually don’t know that you don’t know. Actually, we all know, the same way they know. And we know that we know, you know. Now!’
this is all very confusing, i think i’ve lost the plot, if there ever was one you know.

Don’t worry, you are not alone. Clarrie seems to have mislaid it as well…

‘Commenting about them is not quite like commenting on their behalf. ‘
———————————–
So when Clarrie told Sky that
“The friends are quite bullish. They want to get on with these interviews.’
he didn’t in fact have any evidence that they were quite bullish, or indeed, that they wanted to get on with the interviews.
That comes perilously close to making things up…
May 28th, 2008 at 1:14 pm
Jo, yes,
The PJ keeps us in suspense.
Clarence as well.
He is a coward, in my opinion.
May 28th, 2008 at 1:14 pm

Subtle difference………….. you’re asking him to comment on reasons as to why they did’nt go.

‘All the time Clarence said the group found it useless to go and now he says nothing because he does not represent the group.’
perhaps there is a rift ?
May 28th, 2008 at 1:09 pm

But he has often commented on their behalf many times before.
Didn’t he comment on R Oldfield recently….re being in an adjacent apartment ??

Chenier
“On the other hand we may be in unknown, unknown territory, where we don’t actually know that we don’t know…”
——–
No, no, no, Chenier, you only think that you actually don’t know that you don’t know. Actually, we all know, the same way they know. And we know that we know, you know. Now!
—————————-
But now that we do know, we need to know where to go from here. Wherever here is, of course.
The difficulty is that although it is not possible to attempt to aid and abet, it is possible to charge the aiding and abetting of an attempt.
A point of some relevance, I am sure you will agree…
May 28th, 2008 at 1:08 pm
The Mccann team use all best possibilities they can.
When they think it is dangerous for them to talk, they say they are not allowed to talk.
When it is better for them, they talk.
All the time Clarence said the group found it useless to go and now he says nothing because he does not represent the group.

I was listening to the Radio Programme.
Clarence did contact TalkSport a few minutes ago….and said that as he
is not the Tapas7’s Spokesman, he could not comment.
Hmmmm….hasn’t stopped him “commenting” about them before.

Commenting about them is not quite like commenting on their behalf. If of course you can understand that?

I would have thought that they all had copies of their own statements. Therefore no need to have to remember.
It’s not up to them to decide how the PJ conduct their investigation.
Have the PJ called their bluff by stating that the recon has to include them all?
Will they now request just the Mc’s return?
Can they make them all arguidos (from Portugal) & then make them all return? (that would really sort out the men from the boys & send them into reorganisation mode)
Will they un arguido Murat & let him ”chat”?
