Madeleine McCann: Introducing Amelie, Celebrity Kate And Xmas Marks The Spot
MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann, Kate McCann and Gerry McCann
THE PEOPLE: “KATE: I KNOW OUR MADDIE IS ALIVE -EXCLUSIVE New worldwide appeal as McCanns face second heartbreak Xmas Star gives TV backing
Little news of Our Maddie, the missing child who is still missing. But Christmas is approaching, another landmark.
Writes Tracey Kandohla:
Missing Madeleine McCann’s mum Kate remains certain she is still alive - and plans a worldwide appeal at Christmas for help in finding the tot.
Merry Christmas, everyone! It’s panto season:
A sporting hero, who has yet to be named, will front the TV appeal. The celeb will speak as previously unseen footage of Maddie is screened.
Who is it? Any clues? Says Clarence Mitchell:
“Kate and Gerry believe Madeleine is still out there. Their faith and hope have helped them through their darkest days. They believe their daughter is still alive. The Christmas message will be about finding her. Kate and Gerry do not want to appear themselves but they are keen to invigorate interest in the search.”
So let’s all focus on finding Madeleine McCann; discovering what happened to her; looking for a crime.
Sean and Amelie, three, wore Star Wars fancy dress and shrieked with laughter as Christmas lights were turned on by Darth Vader in the McCanns’ home village of Rothley, Leics.
Surely, this is the one place we know Madeleine McCann is not. Keep looking:
Blonde Amelie, who bares a striking resemblance to her big sister, was dressed as Princess Leia.
It’s Maddie!
Sean waved a toy Star Wars light sabre. Kate clung tightly to Amelie. But an onlooker said: “I have never seen her look so happy. She was grinning from ear to ear. It was a joy to see her so content and relaxed.”
Who needs a celebrity, when for The People Kate McCann is enough?
Says Mitchell:
“Kate wanted the twins to see the lights. Last year was difficult but this year they are making an effort for their sake.”
Do you see the light?

Weather not to bad in Lagos, then come back to a freezing Glasgow.
Word is the same, this case is dead buried, Portuguese have better than good idea of events, that is why Rebelo the master cleaner was brought in, because it didn’t point to the parents, but a lot nearer to home.
Some matters are political suicide, so as the Portuguese authorities decided it was a battle they would rather not fight, the reasons and the catalogue of alleged events will never see the light of day, Amen.

I stumbled across your website by mistake and what a mistake it was. I have never spent 5 seconds more wastefully in all my life. I don’t know how you sleep at night. Do you contribute anything to the world? The drivel you have written is something worthy of a 8 year old delinquent. Just stop for a minute and think about what you are going to be proud of when you are old and dying and I promise you it wont be this.
December 1st, 2008 at 12:30 pm
what are you going to be proud of when you’re old?
December 1st, 2008 at 12:32 pm
Morning Po Panda. You shouldnt have wasting time leaving a message then.
December 1st, 2008 at 12:35 pm
Rasputin,
Thanks again for the inside knowledge you bring to this site.
December 1st, 2008 at 12:42 pm
Well, I’m glad somebody has got some information because to me it looks as if the Cipriano trial started as high tragedy and is heading ever downwards into Christmas panto…
December 1st, 2008 at 12:50 pm
oh no it isn’t
December 1st, 2008 at 12:50 pm
Po Panda
Come of it - you’ve been sniffing round for months - like a flasher.
December 1st, 2008 at 12:53 pm
Panto or Whitehall farce? Then there’s those other comedians, the politicians
December 1st, 2008 at 12:54 pm
Oh yes it is!
How are the feathers doing, Lone?
