I've been sitting on this for a while, better put it out before it happens. I've nailed my colours firmly to the mast here, perhaps Fellpony is right you can't be angry and funny We are imminently expecting the latest theory from the Portuguese police on the McCann disappearance. We have our regular group of media experts on hand, here, in the studio to assess it. They are hopeful that this one will maintain the police’s consistently innovative and inflammatory standard. Over to you, Tristam Thank you, Jeremy. Yes the police, here, have really pulled the stops out. They have managed to extrapolate a whole case against the McCanns, on easily, the flimsiest of evidence yet. I really can’t see how they can top this one, but then I said that yesterday. Well, the head of police can’t be with us, today, as he had just moved house and memorizing his new address is taking priority right now, so I’ve just been handed a press statement to read out. “We can now reveal we found dog hairs stuck to Mrs McCann’s shoes and similar hairs on the door mat which leads us to the obvious conclusion that they must have trained a large dog to take Maddy away and bury her somewhere. There are a lot of stray dogs round here and they will do anything for a dog biscuit. We also have damning evidence; a covert photo of Mr McCann stroking a dog, which he claims not to remember. We have consequently diverted all search teams to look for the dog. We are confident of an early result”. Over to you and the team, Jeremy. Well reaction here from the journalists has been fevered. They can’t believe their luck, not only will it fuel more wild, uninformed speculation about the family but there is the added bonus of the issue of stray dogs which should further polarise the public, a neat touch. The Sun journalist is starting campaign to rescue the dog as we speak. This one should keep copywriters, media pundits and newscasters in a frenzy of action. It’s got all the necessary ingredients to keep everyone arguing, allowing the media to, happily, crank up even more rabid speculation. I can safely say this one gets a big thumbs up from our panel, who all predict increased circulation. A really well judged piece with something in it for everyone……..with the exception of Maddy of course, but you can’t have everything.
