Seija Rutter Amsterdam playgroup friend Een Vandaag

Broadcast: 14 May 2007

Seija Rutter: "Yeah, the pupil runs into the iris and that's something that she'll always have and that will never, ever change and I think this is positive, this is something that's completely unique to Madeleine and she's instantly recognisable from her eyes."

Seija Rutter: "They're incredibly aspiring and strong parents. They... they had about five years IVF treatment before they conceived Madeleine and they had so much strength, they was told they'd never be able to conceive and after five years they finally had Madeleine. She was the centre of their world... errm, they completely doted on her 100%. 

 

Seija Rutter: "I... they're not in the wrong, they're not the people that's in the wrong. The person that has taken Madeleine away from such a loving family - they're the people in the wrong and I don't think anybody has the right to question the judgement that they chose."

Seija Rutter: "They came over because Gerry, errr... was working at the VU hospital doing some research - he's a cardiologist. So, that's the reason why they was over here. And, errr... when they fell pregnant with the twins they almost, errr... miscarried the twins and they were advised that, errr... Kate has to have complete bed rest for the rest of the pregnancy and I think at the time she was only 7 or 8 weeks pregnant, so they decided to move back to the UK so they could have support of friends and family around them."

Seija Rutter: "She's a very strong-willed child. She's, errr... very witty. Always was a happy child, always was a... ehhh. Just... just bubbly and... yeah. And I... I'd imagine right now that she's probably feeling very scared and being away from her family and... I just, yeah. I dread to think what she's going through right now... I just... "

Jennifer Walker Amsterdam playgroup friend Een Vandaag

Broadcast: 14 May 2007

Jennifer Walker: "To see this, to... to... the first time I... I looked at the news and I saw Kate's face, errr... you can't imagine what a mother... errr, what a mother must be going through."

Jennifer Walker: "There's a risk every time you step out the door, I look at Dutch parents who put three kids on their bike and ride through downtown Amsterdam. Is that not a bigger risk than the risk that Kate and Gerry took? I don't know. You know, how do I... I don't judge, you know. That's not for me to judge. We each as a parent take... do what we feel confident in, as parents, and we have our best instincts and our best... errm, heart at the centre of it all and I have no doubt that Kate and Gerry had this."

Through a network of around 10 couples in Glasgow, mostly doctors, and John McCann, Gerry's brother, they have seen prominent sportsmen, businessmen, celebrities and politicians become involved. Dr McIntyre first met Gerry McCann at a running club in Coatbridge when he was a teenager. Both John McIntyre and Gerry McCann trained at Glasgow University before specialising in sports medicine. Paul attended Kate and Gerry's wedding. Their paths crossed again when Dr McCann returned from New Zealand, with his wife Kate, and took over Dr MacIntyre's teaching post at Glasgow University. Paul was at Gerry and Kate's wedding and last November 2006 he was trying to convince Gerry, to head back north and take up a cardiology post at the Glasgow's Western Infirmary. After Madeleine's disappearance, Dr MacIntyre first made contact with the McCanns through a mutual friend, Dr Andrew Renwick.
