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?

Perhaps adults think that other adults will reply to simple polite questions without being constantly rude?

Good stuff Duncan. Glad your birthday went well.

Good evening and a bit off topic and not sure if it has been mentioned earlier!!
Nisha Patel-Nasri’s husband along with two other men have been convicted of her murder, some 2+ years after the crime.
This may give food for thought to those who think that the PJ need to pull their fingers out and close the case of justice for Madeleine.
To have a watertight conviction does not always happen overnight, does it?

Also without the need of having to run off & complain behind the others back?

They are innocent of any involvement until charged, and a court decides otherwise.
May 28th, 2008 at 10:32 pm
I think initial smearing against the McCanns has shown some true colours. There’s no turning back. And to be quite frank with you - that sort of thing wouldnt happen in this country.

june, what is that in response to ?
May 28th, 2008 at 10:29 pm
Ah right, thanks, so Madeleine was Portuguese?
But seriously had she been, and her her parents been Portuguese, and all the Tapas group, would you be saying the same?
Are they innocent of any involvement simply by nationality?

At the moment, Beaucephalus, Copenhagen and Sleipner are claiming they saw her at home whilst performing regular checks. At the same time maintaining the stable door was firmly closed.
When asked how she was feeling, a spokesman said, Champion.
Trigger said how’s Dave?
They are now known as the Follyfoot Five.

Closed but possibly not bolted?
What with all the excitement, is it possible that Pegasus was involved, but flew the coop before he could be detected?

‘413-Hmmm, Sam-he must have complete confidence in this Jane Tanner-I wonder if this suits a purpose or whether he is blinkered not to think of an alternative..’
it changes with the wind though doesn’t it, what they say, it seems.
‘I saw a man breaking into a house opposite-Didn’t realise what he was doing-and was going to offer him a ladder-when the police asked me about it a day later I couldn’t give them any description to creed or colour-You see what you want to see I think…if that makes sense.’
yes it does. my boys’ had a friend in all day and i’ve seen him a couple of times, but i couldn’t tell you what he was wearing now.

Mods and Admin
If anyone has any complaints about anyone on site, please take it up with Admin.
Anything else is seen as attacking, and shall be dealt with accordingly.
Tonight someone was forced off the site by two posters, who, out of the blue made some untoward, and unknown to us, allegations against her.
Why were we not informed first?

Re your earlier quessy
( Ferdinand - hope you dont mind me pinching your quote mate buts its exactly my feelings on the matter - so June….. we’re not alone )
quote
edited …….The PJ is seeking for a face saving way out (towards their own people). The Tapas9 are made scapegoat therefore, but they’re not Portuguese, so they don’t care about internal Portuguese affairs.

Jo could get a touch carried away with things, but there was no need to chase her off the site.
Perhaps you could repeat your post to her in French?
However, I have emailed Admin about this, so you and Chenier can do your explaining to him
===================================
What??
Chased ‘her’ off?
”Google the expression,at least you will be able to learn some french words….the meaning would be far too streched for you” (391 Jo)
Personally I don’t see any problem with her English, never have! It’s great.
This is an English site & I see no reason why I should need to have to speak French.
However I will always make allowances for others attempts to speak our language whilst I will always attempt to speak the language of the country which I may visit.
If M&A believe her conduct is acceptable & nobody should question her then so beit.
I hope the ground rules are the same for everyone.

Thanks - birthday flew past in a bit of an alcoholic (hic) daze.
Some rotten sadistic b*stard gave me a new mobile. I spent a day trying to unlock the bloody keyboard. Then another couple of days trying to find where the photos went that I took with it.

Still awaiting the results from Newmarket.

Good, I mean sorry to hear that; the post can be a bit of a bugger, can’t it?
I dare say that by the time the results finally get there they will have been overtaken by events; there’s not much point in flogging a dead horse, is there?
Not that there’s any chance of that happening, of course, and we must focus on the important things.
Only 361 days to go…

I just had a look at the site - and well, you know how one site leads to a bit of info and an inclination to look further. I read about John Tanner (Rachel Mclean murder) I know that there CANNOT be a connection with another Tanner, but then I reasearched and found that he was originally from New Zealand and since his release has gone back there. I KNOW that there is a N.Z connection (Gerry chasing Kate to there etc) and I know that Tanner J. probably did not have N.Z connections, and probably doesnt have a brother called John - but this internet lark does really jigger about with one’s brain cells.

yes that would be great.
‘BTW what makes gerry so sure it is a man that has done this?’
i think that’s to do with jane tanners sighting of eggman.

403-Yes they would have copies of their own statements-I just wonder though if the stress of the past year is getting to them-and of course, they may think they could be charged with neglect….we don’t know what sort of pressure they have been under jusst being associated with all this.
I don’t think the Mcs will return of their own will and it is a real statement for the PJ to insist-and I don’t know what powers they have to so do.
