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.

IMO Clarrie is just stting the scene (spinning) for when they go back to be officially charged.

morning steve
I hope they go!
but it seems that any arrests made, would be heartless and disrespectful and probably make them money somehow

“Going out there would send the strongest possible message that Madeleine could still be alive and the search for her should continue.”
How?
Will the arrest they are risking, be for the abandonment ??

Morning Steve!

Who exactly is CM aiming this message at? Sending the strongest possible message that MMc could still be alive?
Who would believe this message?
Who is stupid enough to believe that with all the reward money that has been offered in the past year, that this child could possibly be alive?
Only Osama Bin Laden could have kept her this well-hidden!
I was talking to Paul Burrell yesterday and he’s thinkng along the same lines as me.Aliens went into the apartment.
Just like me the Clan do not want to admit that they witnessed an alien eating their child.
I share their embarrassmet wholly! I can see things from their perspective.

They’ve better think twice before showing their faces back in Praia da Luz. They are not welcome and there would be no smiles at their reception.
I am sure that they would not have simply a burnt empty car …

I think its the first time I have come anorak and left one post ever
April 4th, 2008 at 7:18 am
I saw it! It was super but did not look like the alien in my twin’s cot.
I think that just_me’s alien could possibly have been an alien that one of my friend’s used to see in her dreams when she was in Portugal years ago.
Spookily her initials were the same as JT’s. She used to dream that this gorgeous hunky Portuguese guy would come into her room at night.
But as he got nearer his head always turned into an egg

Kat,
They have certainly put PDL on the map! They will probably have to re-brand it like Sellafield. (Spelling?)

Brandon,
Have you checked your temperature?
April 4th, 2008 at 7:21 am

April 4th, 2008 at 7:22 am
Brandon,
I didnt mean that!
April 4th, 2008 at 7:23 am
Anyway
These Eastenders scripts aint gonna write themselves!
Stevet in my office pronto!
April 4th, 2008 at 7:24 am
SteveT: Ditto. I had a quick trawl myself. No info or different way of looking at the whole scenario just boring tripe.
I think some individuals should join a chat-site if they want to get personal and talk about themselves.
Now! Where are my Bible, crash-test dummy and my handkerchief?
My gardens are full of neighbours looking for my recently eaten children. I feel so guilty just watching them. I should be out there looking - but what’s the point. And my hair and make-up get all messy.

I said ello to duncan and he blanked me
so I left

Coco,
I have a psycic friend who keeps seeing a flying saucer landing next to a large body of water. She thinks it could be a dam. The aliens have left a length of nylon cord and a sock in the water. I dont know how true this will be, but she is normally correct. I hope this helps.
