Madeleine McCann: ‘Bad Dad’ Gerry McCann, The Psychic Barber And Drugs
MADDYWATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann.
DAILY EXPRESS front page: “Madeleine was drugged but it was by kidnapper says her grandmother.”
Page 9: “Madeleine’s family: She was drugged…but not by parents.”
Eileen McCann, Gerry’s mother – says: “I really believe they [whoever took her] gave her a drug. There is no way they carried her out of there without her waking. If she was taken when she was sleeping by somebody she did not know, she would have screamed the place down.”
Alternatively, she was taken by someone she did know? Or Mrs McCann is just speculating.
“’BAD DAD’ GERRY” – Carlos Anjos, head of the Portuguese Police Federation, says Gerry, “a heart consultant”, is a “negligent father”. This is his “astonishing rant”.
THE SUN front page: “Mystics hunt for Maddie.”
Around 150 leads provided by mystics have been followed up.
Page 6: “ASK PSYCHIC BARBER TO HELP FIND MADDIE” – Clairvoyant Gordon Smith has been contacted by the family. Smith hosts TV’s Most Haunted show. He says he can tell if Madeleine is alive or dead. Mick is nicknamed “THE PSYCHIC BARBER”.
DAILY MIRROR front page: “McCANNS: SHE WAS DRUGGED.”
Page 5: “‘Madeleine must have been drugged..she would have screamed place down’” – GRANDMOTHER EILEEN McCANN YESTERDAY.”
“Couple call on psychic to help” – Ex-hairdresser Smith is a “wacky medium”.
Says he: “In order for it to work I need to sit with the closest relatives who would be the parents. Then I’d tune in and see what I can pick up. But I would always warn them that there’s a possibility nothing might happen.”
Best to warn them of that first…
DAILY MAIL page 5: “Now police leader mocks ‘negligent’ Gerry McCann over his fears that an abductor was in Maddie’s room.”
“Call for the ‘psychic barber’” – “Despite both being strict Roman Catholics, the couple have already made contact” with Gordon Smith.
DAILY STAR front page: “MADDIE I’LL FIND BODY IN DAYS. Parents call in psychic.”
Page 7: “MADDIE’S PARENTS CALL FOR PSYCHIC BARBER” – “I have offered my help for free,” says Smith. “I never charge for private readings. I have already assured them I will say nothing to the press.” Indeed, not. Best save it for the book.
DAILY TELEGRAPH page 15: “Police chief accuses McCanns of hindering inquiry” – Carlos Anjos accuses McCanns of using “diversion tactics”.
THE TIMES page 27: “McCanns ‘considering psychic help’”
THE GUARDIAN no Maddie new today.

I have posted the stuff my Psychic friend has been giving out since a week after Madeleine disappeared and sending it to the Police both here and in Portugal and also to the “Sun” “The Mirror” “DailyMail” “Express” and Sky News just so that we have dated information pending the day Madeleine is found in order to be able to say “we told you so” and can prove on what day/time we said it. The “Sun” didn’t want to know but I guess that if any of what my friend says comes right, they will be first on the phone for an “exclusive interview” !!
For the record, I have known this lady 15 years and she is never less than 75% - 80% right in what she says so …watch this space !!

Psychic Barber Denies Contact
Updated: 16:16, Tuesday October 02, 2007
A medium dubbed the Psychic Barber has denied being contacted by the parents of Madeleine McCann for help in tracing their missing daughter.
Madeleine vanished on May 3 Gordon Smith has reportedly been approached by Gerry and Kate McCann to help in the hunt for the child.
But he told Sky News that he has not spoken to anyone from the missing four-year-old’s family - but said he would be willing to help if he could.
Smith - who describes himself as the seventh son of a seventh son and an “astoundingly accurate” medium - is also a barber in Glasgow, Gerry’s home town.
The McCanns, from Rothley, Leicestershire, have had more than 1,000 approaches from people claiming to be mediums since Madeleine’s disappearance in Portugal in May.
While any information judged to be relevant or credible has been passed on to police, the McCanns have had no direct contact with psychics.
But relatives in Scotland have reportedly been pressing the couple to meet a psychic since their return to the UK in September.
The couple, both devout catholics, are understood not to have ruled it out although nothing has been agreed.
“They are desperate for help and even some family members are suggesting it as a possible route,” a friend said.
“It looks like one or two family members are saying why don’t you have a look at so and so.”
The family’s spokesman Clarence Mitchell said he understood that “one or two in Scotland” have been in touch with family members to discuss helping them.
“But, as far as I’m aware, Kate and Gerry have not directly asked for that assistance and I understand none has been agreed,” he added.
“If there is a specific piece of information that can be looked at, such as a car registration or a name, then that is checked out.
“The police do not dismiss these things entirely.”
Early in the investigation Portuguese police insisted they had to consider tip-offs from people claiming to be psychics because an abductor could be using a mystic as a way to communicate with them.

Oh Lor’ here we go !! Derek Acorah ? Colin Fry ? give me a break ! These are names known by the general public due to their profile in the media and I don’t need to do my homework, I know enough Mediums/Psychics/Mystics locally and you wouldn’t have heard of any of them Christine Cooke, Ashley George etc and all of same are as “good” as, if not better than all of the above. Equally there are a load I wouldn’t cross the doorstep to go and consult even though they have a high media profile hereabouts and people think they are “very good” !! One I tried out asked me so many questions I began to wonder who was the subject !!
Also, yes - I do want Madeleine found and she will be found, probably not too long either but not as we would want I fear.
