Madeleine McCann: Kate McCann To Appear On BBC And ITV Interviews

7309066MADDIE WATCH – Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann: Madeleine McCann is on the cover of the Sunday Express. Says the headline:

McCanns launch TV blitz to find Maddie

If only the Express group and owners had TV channels they could use to help. Of, course, they do:

We interrupt this edition of Teen A*** Sla*s on the Fantasy Channel to bring news of the appeal to find Our Maddie.

We must all do what we can to help. The Sunday Express tells us:

KATE McCANN will take part in a round of heart-rending TV interviews this week appealing for anyone who has knowledge of her daughter Madeleine’s kidnapping to come forward.

The heart-rending is separate to the appeal?

The 41-year-old mother has been keeping a low profile for months but has now decided that she wants to take a more active part in the effort to find her daughter, who would now be six.

A low profile, such as when she ran a chaory race with a pocure of her missing daughter on her chest, and who in September told us, via a press conference:

At an emotional press conference in Lisbon she admitted: “I cry for her every day.”

Has the Express any more facts?

Madeleine vanished from a holiday apartment in Praia da Luz on the Algarve on May 3, 2007.

Yes. And this pretty much all we do know. So what next in the hunt for Our Maddie?

Kate will join her husband Gerry for a series of face-to-face interviews with the BBC and ITV.

Why would they need to be interviewed? We are being invited to watch the parents, as ever. To the McCanns it’s exposure. To the media it’s filler and a chance to look caring. And to the watching millions at home it‘s an opening to experience, vicariously, some emotion. In short, the McCanns in interview is entertainment.

And in a new move they will also speak to several Portuguese TV journalists who are flying to London later this week to interview the couple.

A new move, such as when Kate McCann and her husband Gerry McCann spoke with Portuguese paper Expresso in September 2008.

And still the Express goes on:

Last month Kate travelled to Lisbon to meet her Portuguese lawyers and also gave a brief interview to Portuguese TV, saying she cried every day for Madeleine.

Remember that “new move” in Kate McCann speaking to Portuguese journalists?

She works closely with their private investigators David Edgar and Arthur Cowley, who believe the answer to the riddle lies within a 10-mile radius of Praia da Luz.

And who also believe Raymond Hewlett could have involved and a fat Victoria Beckham look-alike walking about in Barcelona could have been involved. Or in Australia.

Madeleine McCann – creating front-page news from a single fact for over two years…
