McCanns appeal to the European Court of Human Rights

[Mr Gray]

Well doesn't he also blame that on poor translation?  He is speaking in Portuguese and we are reading it in English.  You'd have to ask whether the meaning came across properly.
Surely he wouldn't say "I will prove" if he didn't actually have the proof.

Why wouldnt he..

He thought he could

He did

It's also in the SC judgement.. From the SC judgement..

 Gonçalo Amaral who says it, while the narrator at the beginning of the program: "In the next 50 minutes I will prove that the child was not abducted and died in the holiday apartment in Praia da Luz" (N° 41).

That is still a translation. Did he approve the subtitles?  Were the subtitles official?  Or are you saying Amaral was narrating that in English?

[Mr Gray]

I think your argument is ridiculous and absurd

Didn't he also say his book available on the internet wasn't a good translation?

[Robittybob1]

Prove to me the subtitles were approved by Amaral and I'll agree with you.
Were the subtitles put there by Amaral's agent?

I'm not interested in discussing such a ridiculous idea... It's in the, SC judgement as well.

I have read that he said his book wasn't translated properly.  OK he might have preferred actual book sales as opposed to free downloads, so it was a marketing ploy to get more sales.

But how do we know if the video was translated 100%?

As I said... My last word to you on the subject... I'm not interested in discussing such a ridiculous idea

OK let's all wait for the ECHR to make its ruling then and say no more till then.

[Mr Gray]

I will say what I like on the subject... You can do as you wish

[Robittybob1]

I will say what I like on the subject...

Well so you will and I'll remind you of the translation issue if necessary.

[Mr Gray]

Well so you will and I'll remind you of the translation issue if necessary.

And I will simply ignore you... That's life

I know the translations of the judgements have been criticised by some. Who knows who translated the book and the DVD. Funny how mistranslation is only suspected when it's the McCann's and their friend's statements are discussed.

That's what I thought too.  Now the argument is reverse.

I like that
