Anybody see this last night??? What did you think?

It does suggest that she was abducted.

thanks

I didnt see it but people at work have told me that it pointed towards there being an incident in the room and her not been abducted

[redcrx]

they didnt suggest anything though really. They just went through all the options and ruled out her having wandered off. They didnt rule out family or friends or a local criminal.

They kept going back to the window shutter as if they couldnt quite work out how it wouldve been opened like all the initial reports said. It was as if they doubted that info, which was first given on GMTV on the morning of the 4th may.

They couldnt question anyone involved, obviously) so there wasnt a great deal for them to go by.

Rev, i think it just depended on your own point of view as to how you took the program

[Reverandfunk]

I was busy sticking pins in my eyes lol

the shutter section did make me wonder.

The prgramme for obvious reasons was not conclusive but to me pointed more in the direction that the McCanns were hiding something, and that Madeline was not abducted

I thought it was apalling. They tried to make it look like a serious investigation but it was really just intrusive, insensitive voyeuristic television for entertainment. The so called experts had no privileged information, so they were just speculating just like the Mail and Express and countless posters here.

A disgrace.

[redcrx]

did you watch it then gromit?

[Gromit]

I saw one quarter of it, they were really spinning it out. Then there was a salacious promise of tastier morsels after the break, at which point I sacked it.

Trying to look worthy when it was really trashy television at it's worse.
