Australian Ch7 documentary claims new lead in search for missing Madeleine McCann.

[Alfie]

Is that a non biased opinion ? 

Well what did he look like to you, honestly?

[Mr Gray]

That's because a 90% match could cover literally thousands of people, it isn't significant in itself.

millions in fact...doesnt matter...what he said was a lie

[Brietta]

I have still to watch and document Part 5 but it seems very clear that this work by Channel 7 is one giant piss take!  I bet Amaral is furious he ever gave them the time of day.

I don't know what he and Brown thought they were doing by agreeing to be interviewed by a team outwith the usual comfort zones.

I think Brown seemed to be running off at the mouth and probably didn't give what she said a great deal of thought.
I remember when she was fired on air from Fox TV for much the same thing.  I can't find a clip ... has anyone got a cite for it?
Body language? now there was a performance worthy of a study for any student of the practice.

Amaral is not a stupid man but I don't think he thought through the difference between the presentation on home tv and what is expected for an international audience.  He is lucky the interviewer did not do a Paxman.

My feeling has been that there was an international shock at what happened in the Portuguese courts regarding McCann v Amaral and this documentary goes some way to confirming that.
The fact that Pedro do Carmo is having to make the attempt to pull the irons out of the fire on behalf of the PJ indicates to me that there is a similar opinion of that among some of the establishment in Portugal.

At the end of the day though is Madeleine and ten years lost because of myopia and the blatant refusal to widen the horizons of the case before information was irretrievably lost.

Having only watched a few minutes of the programme could someone sum it up for me please?  Was it hyper-critical f the McCanns as some thought it would be?  Did they it conclude the parents dunnit?

Like most other people under studio lights.

Now Alfie, what about the McCann's non-verbal responses at the end of part 3 ?

I see Carly has joined us.  I wonder what she thinks of Ch7 reporter Rahni Sadler?  For me it is the worst interview technique I've seen for a long time.  Her sickening smirking at Amaral was the epitome of unprofessionalism.

I completely agree

I wonder if she is an associate of Clarence Mitchell.

[stephen25000]

the legal fees Ive seen quoted are very low

Cite.

How would you have seen any ?

The % breakdown of what they owe has already been quoted.

I dont think she could help it....his idea was just so preposterous. I thought she was excellent

they were in a newspaper...around £7000 for amaral. You do realise they are liable for court fees ...not legal fees.
the % figures quoted here were never substantaited .....one poster claimed parapono as the source and parapono didnt seem to have a clue...imo

[stephen25000]

The programme was very good PR for the mccanns and very bad for amaral, brown and the pj

The interviewer really seemed to adore the McCann's.

Actually, it was quite nauseating.

As was the smile and the gulp  when she asked the McCann's if they had been involved in Madeleine's disappearance.

Not forgetting Gerry Mccann's extremely nervous hand touching his face.

Then not forgetting K.M.'s regular looking to her left as she answered questions.

Who says he did?

She was derriere licking the McCann's.

That was quite nauseating.

Does PR solve an as yet undetermined case of a missing child.

Who says he did?

None of the more recent photos have shown him wearing those large spectacles, so perhaps it was old footage skillfully edited.
