Netflix launches new 8-part documentary about the disappearance of Madeleine McCann.

[faithlilly]

I thought the film portrayed rather well, the very very suspicious way imo, in which they all completely destroyed the crime scene. I never have understood the forensic logic by medically trained professionals who believed their apartment had been burgled and were a child down. I felt it followed the template of Panorama and proceeded to let those whom allege they believe an abduction took place, drown the few critical bits they included out, without challenge. The inclusion that Martin Smith had changed his mind, stripped a good deal of it's credibility imo. I find it difficult to believe that the producers where not aware of Gemma O'Doherty's report. I'm well aware that there those who are satisfied with this production but I'm not one of them. Are you allowed to say crap on here?

It really matters not a jot CM. SY and the PJ will know that Martin Smith didn’t change his mind. In the end that’s all that really matters.

It all sounds rather remiss of the supervisors to allow a small child to leap out of a boat into the sea.
Presumably it was reported to MW at the time.

Yes, there doesn't seem to be mention of it in the Nannys statement? could the PJ have forgotten to write that down as well? mabeez mis translated.... Or maybe just made up by Miss Berry or her dad?

The Smiths changed their story? what really?  Oh.. pity we couldn't hear that from the Smiths.

Did her father day she leapt out of the boat or is that newspaper hyperbole

Yes it's s shame we can't hear it from the Smiths... All this second hand stuff is so unreliable

You did watch the documentary, didn’t you ? That’s exactly what the gentleman said.

Madeleine probably leaned over the edge and got hoiked back.

[Mr Gray]

We agree on rather a lot. Your right, I'll stick with what Martin Smith said, and ignore that second hand stuff from Richard Bilton.  60 - 80% was it? Similar to Jane Tanner.

Do you know what Smith said... I don't believe he even saw the mans face

[Mr Gray]

Madeleine probably leaned over the edge and got hoiked back.

That's exactly what I thought as one of the possibilities...
The testimony really does decimate the credibility if the "researchers" on CMOMM... LOL

[Mr Gray]

You did watch the documentary, didn’t you ? That’s exactly what the gentleman said.

The gentleman didn't say that...

[faithlilly]

The gentleman didn't say that...

He said that Madeleine launched herself into the sea, much to the horror of the kids club reps.

I have finally gone and had a look. Yes Berry did indeed say Madeleine launched herself off the boat and into the sea, "much to the alarm of the Kid's Club Staff". He goes on to say that in the afternoon on the Thursday the kids were particularly tired...."sea air and being out on the boats all day"

So what did the alarmed Kid's Club Staff do with this sopping wet child? How did she end up like this at lunchtime?

"Some images are etched for all time on my brain.
Madeleine that lunchtime is one of them. She was
wearing an outfit I’d bought especially for her holiday:
a peach-coloured smock top from Gap and some
white broderie-anglaise shorts from Monsoon

In my opinion Neil Berry, Cat Baker and Kate McCann need to explain why none of them ever mentioned the incident he has just decided to reveal.

I have now watched Episode One and have listened to Neil Berry's account; something you don't seem to have done. I will eventually listen to everyrhing that was said as your accounts cannot be trusted to be accurate in my opinion.

[Eleanor]

Didn't it ever dawn on you that if he had seen his face, Martin Smith would have been 100%.
That's why he was only 60-80% I'm assuming. Did Jane Tanner see the man's face? She still told Oakley she was 80% certain that the photo they showed her of the man, was the abductor.

I keep on coming back to Cristovao.

[Eleanor]

I am finding it strangely riveting, despite the fact that we have heard most of it all before.

you claimed berry said...... Yes Berry did indeed say Madeleine launched herself off the boat and into the sea, ...faith claimed something similar as his actual words....you are both wrong and faith has now corrected herself.....so in accusing me of not listening youve made a bit of a fool of yourself...as you have not listened properly...LOL....

so as you have accused me of not listening properly to berry's account...could you provide a cite for ANYTHING I have said that is incorrect re his statement...you cant and you owe me an apology
